Oct 31 2007Britney Spears’ label can’t trust her to promote new album
Jive Records is officially giving up on trying to get Britney Spears to promote her new album. They’re not even planning a tour despite her single “Gimme More” topping the charts. The label realizes that Britney doesn’t care and is apparently becoming fed up with her antics. NY Daily News reports:
"They can't get Britney to do anything!" said a source close to the label and Spears. "They did get her to do one photo-shoot for some promotional materials, but beyond that, they can't trust her to even show up. This album could've been so much bigger with Britney involved. This is the one opportunity they have to try and sell a million records. They were forced to [go on with] their marketing plan.”
Britney may not even care about the money as her estimated worth this year is near $100 million. Her activities in the press seem to emphasize a detachment with reality:
But her bizarre behavior was evident as recently as Sunday, when our spy found her looking confused as she wandered around the locker room of the Four Seasons Hotel in L.A. — wearing just a bikini bottom. When another woman asked her where the hotel pool was, Brit replied, "Oh, is there a pool here?"
You see what I did there? I started the day off with a scary story because it’s Halloween. I mean, c’mon, how frightening is that? You could be walking around, minding your own business and then “Bam!” topless Britney Spears! Eeeek! But don’t worry. Just tell her you work for Jive and want to take some promotional photos. She’ll shriek and vanish into the night. Presumably to Taco Bell. It’s where the Britney feeds waiting for her next vict – Hey, did you just see that? Was that a nipple? *sniffs* Hot sauce? I didn't have Mexican... Look! Behind the couch. A stretch mark! AHHH!!

They're probably better off if she doesn't promote the album. In fact, they might try putting it out with a different name and picture on the cover and just don't tell Britney. She won't know the difference.

Remember back in the day, when Britney topless was a GOOD thing?
Aah, youth. Those were the days. Now we must wake up to stark reality.

Ok let me set the record straight. I Jimbo have never sucked a donkeys dick.
The real Jimbo
14. * MISS UNIVERSE - October 31, 2007 12:55 PM
She has been at the top and its just is not so great :-(
Having hundreds of photographers around her daily, and countless news articles daily. She does not need any more fame or success or wealth in her mid twenties.
She will be famous for the rest of her life
Look at Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Paul McCartney
15. Jimbo - October 31, 2007 12:59 PM
@13 who the fuck are you troll?
@6 go fuck yourself donkey balls
16. Feckless - October 31, 2007 1:00 PM
I wouldn't want to go to one of her stupid concerts anyway but if I did, I wouldn't be able to BECAUSE MY FUCKING CAR IS IN THE FUCKING SHOP FOR FUCKING 2 WEEKS I WILL FUCKING LOSE MY MIND.

She may be famous for the rest of her life but in a couple more years she'll look like Elizabeth Taylor.
19. Feckless - October 31, 2007 1:02 PM
lol, "if still alive repeat step one" - how about stick tab A into slot B?

"Britney may not even care about the money as her estimated worth this year is near $100 million"
Gee, so that story about her being broke wasn't true??? Really??? It seemed so real. But for sure this story is true.
23. stop trolling trolls - October 31, 2007 1:08 PM
@6- no go try it? me talk in caveman. me a dur dur. huuuuuuuuuga buuga.
24. PunkA - October 31, 2007 1:12 PM
How hard is it to get Brit to do anything?? Seriously, all you have to do is promise that the Kraft table at the promotions will be filled with Starbucks, Taco Bell and Jell-O vodka shooters. For Free. She shows up, and you threaten to cut her off, then she behaves. It is simple. Just treat her like a 4-year old, and she will behave. Trust me. The lure of the chalupa will be too great.
25. Pilatunes - October 31, 2007 1:14 PM
I'd be astonished if she was worth that money. I know she used to have a lot, but she spends money like water and you can be sure she doesn't manage what she doesn't spend. I can see her (and LiLo) ending up broke.
26. Jimbo - October 31, 2007 1:15 PM
Speaking on behalf of all the Jimbo's
Cant we all just get along?
The original Jimbo
27. It's Zitney, bitch! - October 31, 2007 1:15 PM
Dumb bitch lives in a crazy world of her own. She is unreachable, untalented, and concerned with nobody but her ridiculous self. I hope she goes bankrupt, or somebody shoves her down a flight of stairs.
28. FRIST!!! - October 31, 2007 1:15 PM
It's Halloween. Everybody tries to pretend they are someone else.
Course I don't troll people, I just dress up like something scary.

(breathlessly) "Britney's single is a disaster!"
(fact) Britney's single goes to the top of the charts.
(breathlessly) "Britney's broke!"
(fact) Britney's worth 100 mil.
(breathlessly) "Britney's album sucks, she won't promote it, and it won't sell!"
guess what comes next?
wait, you can't, or you wouldn't be here...

55. JP - October 31, 2007 1:53 PM
I would totally hit dat'ass. There is no sex like crazy chick sex. And I could get all nasty and porn-movie on her ass and she wouldn't know the difference. From the A$$ to the mouth? No problem, because she's crazy.
56. Kelly Neuman - October 31, 2007 1:53 PM
The girl cant sing anymore nor can she dance she has lost any talent she used to have. She needed to quit when she was on top at least people would have remembered good things now all they think of when you hear Britney Spears is a waster always in the media for crap behaviour.
