For more than 10 years Britney Spears has reigned as one of Pop’s most formidable forces.

However, after a much publicized breakdown, tragic performances, and barely-there interviews, debate intensifies as to whether the Pop starlet is really ‘with it’ anymore.

Her brand and ever-growing hit catalogue may be strong as ever, yet doubt remains surrounding whether or not she can hold a candle to the competition in the current musical climate.

Ever keen to hear what the masses are saying, That Grape Juice hit the streets of Hollywood to get The Word…on Britney Spears.

  2. C_Jay June 29, 2011

    LOL at the big girl who said “she loved her breakdown album” and called it her fave yet still couldnt put a title to it…. BLACKOUTTTTTTT.

  3. TRGreaves June 29, 2011

    delusional!

    Love her or loathe her, she’s been here producing hits and changing pop music, pop culture and the overall landscape of the industry.She’s REALLY close to legendary status.And she’s coming back.Just take a look at her Femme Fatale tour vids
    (I’m so sure Sam started going crazy that nobody wanted to bash her)

  5. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 29, 2011

    Btw, I love your intros guys.Amazing idea and greatly executed (After 4/5 episodes, however, it would be good if you changed the song)

  6. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 29, 2011

    (THEY JUST HAD TO PUT 3 SHOTS FROM HER TRAINWRECK PERFORMANCE IN THE INTRO, DIDN’T THEY? lol)

    Thumbs up on Sam not throwing shade on Brit for the first time! Leave the b**** alone, she’s been out for about 12 years now and still making #1 records.

  8. JT June 29, 2011

    She’s paved the way for so many female artists the same way Madonna paved the way for her. She’s legendary, she’s an icon, she’s been producing hit after hit and assisting in molding popular music into what it is today. She’s 12 years into her career and is embarking on a World Tour with Femma Fatale, that’s a pretty big deal, you have to admit regardless of your feelings for her.

    im so glad! this video was made!! it warms my heart to know people are out there who do not judge her from her breakdown! and still support her! im a regular grape juice reader and everytime there is a Britney post “SHADE” is thrown to Britney from this website! and the truth is Britney is still a significance in the music world! just the fact that she has a #1 album and two top 3 hits so far, and yet Gaga and Beyonce released how many songs?! Britney just released 3! im glad THAT PEOPLE STILL LOVE BRITNEY! FOR WHO SHE IS IN THE MUSIC WORLD!

  10. Christian June 29, 2011

    LMFAO @ F*cked Up is good

    I think in time Britney music will overshadowed her breakdown. There’s no doubt about it.

  11. GEMBRITNEY June 29, 2011

    LMAO famousrichards older brother XD

  12. nowchile June 29, 2011

    Some of y’all sound retarded. Britney is trash and so is her music.

  13. L-Train June 29, 2011

    I liked it. I think very representative of how Britney fans feel despite it only being based of small sample of fans. The fans in the video were also pretty realistic in terms of how Britney has changed as a perofrmer/artist. Nice job, Sam!

  14. L-Train June 29, 2011

    *based off of

  15. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) June 29, 2011

    @nowchile. Well, I respect your opinion, but her music is not trash. Her back catalogue is not really strong lyrically, but look at the arrangements of her songs, the melodies and OF COURSE her iconic videos and performances. She’s not trash, maybe just not your cup of tea

  16. jammy June 29, 2011

    It’s annoying that since she is Brit she will slide. I understand that she makes good music, but we are paying the producers for her music, rihanna etc. Not raw talent. I like Brit Brit’s new music.. not gonna lie, but her TOURS should be MAJOR FLOPS!!!! Why are her tours selling out? You’re paying for her back up dancers, stage props, lights, etc. oh and i guess her stiff movements? Smh

    In short:
    Good music YES
    Good live performances HELL NO!

  17. jammy June 29, 2011

    idk why rihanna was in my last post, but i guess i meant Rihanna reminds me of Britney too basically.

  18. Malibu Barbie June 29, 2011

    “God i hope its not her bald head!” DEAD SHE KILLED ME!!

    LOL@ The Chloe Kardashian look alike. She cool doe. “God i hope its not her bald head” LMAO.

    I like the cussin one lol.

  20. Albert June 29, 2011

    I love how people still support her music! Her breakdown will not be her legacy that she leaves. The music will forever be remembered. I am so over her breakdown, it was 3 years ago, people…let’s move on. BTW, I really don’t like that asian chick. Why was she in another video? Get other people, please. Get people that can speak without saying “you know” a hundred times!

  21. Yup I said it June 29, 2011

    LMFAO @ the asian b**** who said CIara was talentless, but is saying Britney is talented and entertaining. Dumb b****. And that one guy was cute. Lawd. The black girl at the end was cute too.

      @Yup I said it

      I was thinking the exact same thing! delusionality at its finest!

  22. rah June 29, 2011

    they all r delusional…i like Britney, but come on she had hits and her new music is so-so…he needs to either get the focus right or hang it up!

  23. JohnnyS June 29, 2011

    Its funny that all of them happen to be Britney Spears stans. The delusional kind. Nobody denies that Britney is a legend. She definitely is. She’s an icon. Her phenomenal career is undeniable! BUT the shade comes with how she is NOW. I’ve never seen an artist who was so GREAT at one point be so TERRIBLE now. Thats why people are upset. They yearn for at least HALF of the old Britney. She stumbles around on stage looking like a lost puppy, but people are so happy and thrilled to see her they don’t even care that she’s not with us! That’s the sad part! But in a time where artist like Rihanna can do little to nothing on stage and still be successful its no surprise that ppl still stan for Britney.

    And that asian b**** is the worst. How are u gonna throw shade at Ciara last video and say she has no talent but say Britney is so talented. You’ve never even heard her sing. She was a performer, and now that shes not even THAT anymore…..girl..people are so crazy. LOL!

  24. Nelz June 29, 2011

    That Asian b**** is stupid!!!! She talked soo much s*** bout Ciara and she’s over here stanning for Britney without a clue why . .. this video well not the video but the people a MESS.com

  25. MuzikManiack June 29, 2011

    Britney still makes good music, but she need to do better with her live performances because they are not cutting it!

  26. girlie June 29, 2011

    I think a generation of people think Britney is an icon but if you would ask really young ( tweens and younger) or people in their 40’s you wouldn’t necessarily have the same response. Even though she is still successful, it seems as if her peak happened and now she is riding on what she did previous. All really successful artists do but she’s still young enough to keep her career going for many more years. It’s too early for people too be reminising about “old” Britney.

    Britney seems like a nice girl so why would anyone wish her anything but happiness? I personally don’t think her happiness is on the stage any more though but as long as people buy her music and related stuff, the machine will continue to press her to make music, tour, etc.

    The Queen Of Pop !!! 😀

  28. VFB June 29, 2011

    Why is he interviewing the same three people….ummmm Britney is done, the only thing that’s keeping her music alive is the powers that be, auto-tune, her dancers, studio technology, and stunt girls.

    Thank You..Refreshing to see you letting the people talk and your not bringing Britney down

  31. nice_gurl June 30, 2011

    Glad to see you interviewed some people with better knowledge this time.
    Although Britney uses auto-tune all the time and her live performances are really bad, but people are still willing to buy whatever she is selling. I think Britney still has about 5 years until her career is over. People will remember her breakdown but also her hit songs.

  32. Lem August 12, 2011

    Totally loved this…and agreed with everyone.

    • Lem August 12, 2011

      Everyone in the video, that is. Not some of these jealous haters in the comments.
