but this has not been a regression in music, because I love the album, but it was a regression for Britney, she seemed happier during the "Circus Era".
Ugh this thread is depressing. You guys complain too much sometimes. I know Britney forgot what promo means but can we do something about it? No. Complaining every week about the same thing is not helping in anything. Just enjoy the happy moments of the present like the queen says and stop complaining because we can't do anything about it and we still are getting good music.
Lem speaks the truth sis so let him. I appreciate his truthfulness. He calls out britnand her team on their crap. He isn't delusional or blind like some of you. I keep it real also!
Britney has done some amazing stuff recently. But she doesn't need to be called out on some of her things.

It's not complaining too much. With the way us fans have been treated, its not even CLOSE to complaining too much.
Until the day Britney explains everything to us, this discussion will always go on. I'm loving this conversation.
There's no excuse for her not promoting her music properly! We aren't even asking heavy ITZ promotion, just smart continued promotion throughout the era not just a week's promo on the album's release and that's it. I hate the excuses she gets from fans for not promoting as well, "she's a legend", "she's proved herself already", "she does this for FUN" and "she's a mother of 2" ...
Omg yeah, that's really annoying. Just because she's a mother of 2 doesn't mean that she can't promote her album. If she can record an album with 2 kids, and go on a world tour with 2 kids, then she should be able to promote with 2 kids. It's NOT that hard and promoting is easier than going on tour.

Nah, Circus promo was great. I loved that era. I remember it like it was yesterday.
Britney AND her team are the ****ing pits when it came to promotion this era.
If ****ing Oprah summons you for an interview, you take that ****. I don't give a **** about who you are or what you did. It's ****ing Oprah. She's NOT like Diane Sawyer who tries to put people on blast. A Britney+Oprah interview (especially since it was her last season and her ratings were off the charts) would have been a PERFECT promotional opportunity for Britney and would have gotten some of her old causal-fanbase back that still thinks she's crazy!!
The ****ing Grammy's that they snubbed. I don't care what Britney thinks about the Grammy's when it comes to that album and your career you promote that ****. Could you imagine an acoustic version of Hold It Against Me?
Remember when we all sat around watching that Grammy's red carpet show hoping Britney would arrive, and the host was bombared with Britney questions? Britney would have easily stole that night away from everyone -- much like she did at the BBMA with that HORRIBLE and humiliating TTWE cat-walk.
Adam Leber is ****ing trash. And this is just as much Britney's fault because she signs off on this ****. If she wanted to promote, she WOULD have.
Cancelling Ellen? A ****ing mess.
She could have did Jay Leno and Jimmy Fallon on top of the skits+performance on Jimmy Kimmel. It's not like Jay and Jimmy Fallon are going to grill her about her conversatorship.
All of Britney's ****ing promotion was done on the SAME WEEKEND, all in the same city. Minimal exposure.
Even President Obama promotes his policies in ****. Jesus promoted his word -- who does Britney think she is by not promoting her stuff?
Sorry, but Britney's causal fan-base is GONE -- and that's who buys albums.
And yes, it's not about sales. However, no sales = no Britney CDs. If Britney isn't selling, then we get no Britney music. So yes, it IS about sales and you will ****ing deal.
And yes, it's also about the music -- but that was **** too. Femme Fatale is already stale not even a year into its lifespan. The only fresh tracks are the first two singles: one of which no one heard after the week of January 14.
We are the ones buying albums. It's not our job to accept every little thing that Britney and her team does and doesn't do. Britney should be pleasing all her fans while trying to gain new ones and she has failed in that aspect. And don't even bring up the Femme Fatale tour.
Not EVERYONE CAN GO TO HER TOUR. It would be nice to actually see Britney on television where she can reach a wider range of people like her fans, casual fans and the general public.
The tea you just spilled has surely knocked some gerls down.
Can we get into how flawless the bitch looked as well?
Circus Release Party
Nokia Center Tree in LA
Rockefeller Center Tree Lightening
Bambi Awards
Charitable rounds, Britney visiting a school in the Bronx.
Promo rounds.
She looked perfect during the Circus era. That era wasn't even that long ago, but she looks SO different now, like she's aged tremendously or something. Don't get me wrong - she still looks incredibly hot sometimes, but she no longer looks like she's in her early 20's like she did in the Circus era. Maybe if the eras were 5-8 years apart, I'd understand her looking like this NOW...but they're not. She needs new stylists.

Sweetie by the end of next week they will be back on this same subject, and then the week after next, and the week after next. Then next era those poor souls will be back on it again and again and again. And then the era after that, and after that.
It's sad that Britney can't even memorize a simple 5 words to record something for her fans......or that she can't even speak from the heart. The cuecards simply have to go. I mean, reading off something just to introduce yourself: "Hey ya'll it's Britney...."
!!!
The way she said "Chillay" off that cue card, I'll neva forget. The cue cards are so irritating. I don't know if it's her that wants those or her team, I don't ****ing know, but they need to GO.
And I don't know why some of y'all stay complaining that we're talking about this. Yeah, talking about it won't change the circumstances, but it's not like it's a bad thing that we're talking about this. It's not like Britney is going to explain everything to us, so I don't see a problem with us speaking about things amongst ourselves. Yeah, it gets annoying sometimes, but it's interesting. If you don't like it, then bye. Ain't nobody telling you that you gotta stay in here.

Umm I don't know, maybe because its the same people talking about it every ****ING week, with the same points, and the same arguments. Y'all don't even need to type it anymore, you might as well highlight it and copy it to a Word document and save it for next week.
And make no mistake, I've done just that and will show you all exactly what I mean next time it rears its tired ugly head

I don't recall speaking about it last week, but sometimes I don't join in on the discussion, so. I still don't see a problem with speaking about it all, it keeps the thread alive and it's an interesting discussion, even if the same points are brought up, but to each their own.
