christian, pay attention...lol, i didn't say britney NEVER had any talent. i said she has none NOW.

what's laughable is you want to discount the very cause of her poor present performances...her post breakdown.

be honest, if anyone else had put on the horrific performance she put out at the 2007 vmas, followed up with lame sales like her cd 'blackout' (which took 2 years to go platinum) and finally ventured on a tour that even the media had to admit was somewhat atrocious; they would have been kicked to the gutters of the industry.

like is said britney survives now because of fan loyalty which translates to her selling less than a million copies of 'femme fatale' and coming in #11 in concert sales for 2011. i repeat, also because of the love and image building hype of the media whose minds also still dwell in the era of the pig-tailed britney wearing the short plaid skirt and shirt tied at the waist.

what's ridiculous, christian is to make the claim that because britney was talented years ago that she's still talented when it's obvious to anyone whose senses aren't dulled by blind loyalty and media politicking that she isn't.

the "other stuff " you don't care about was just examples of how far the politics of christina vs britney has gone.
