The fact that she doesn't look that great when she's not made up is proof of that. True striking beauties look great whether their wig is perfect and their makeup is done right, or they're bald and fresh-faced.

But that was part of Britney's appeal. On stage she was a charming, sexy blonde beauty but off-stage she was "goofy" and very relatable. She was the ultimate idol/beauty+sex icon because her look was very normal and commonplace. If you were a white girl it was not difficult to replicate how she looked. Britney was truly a symbol of the Bush era imo. Average but thrust into power/stardom anyways. But no matter how much you try to cover up the missing pieces, the truth always comes out. Despite her money and fame Britney got pregnant by a no-good guy, loved fast food, cursed people out, her mental illness set in, and she ruined herself. Whether Britney was in Hollywood or Louisiana all those things would've still happened
