On HBO yesterday, they aired a Britney Spears "concert."

Now, how and why could parents allow their kids to go see these?

She's constantly rubbing and touching herself (including her crotch), gyrating and thrusting her hips, etc.

Also, her outfits are ludicrous for someone who wants to be a role model. A role model for porn stars!

One of her outfits consisted of pants (tight, of course), along with a "bikini top," which was in actuality, see through cloth, with a little star covering her nipple. Does that make it suitable for kids?

I don't see the justification for parents allowing their kids to see this tripe.

Sorry for the rant. Peace.

I wholeheartedly agree, my friend. Parents need to be more actively conscious of what is going on in the lives of their children. I don't think they make the effort needed to keep up with the details. It's the same kind of thing as when you see the ten year olds walking around with South Park t-shirts on. You've got to be kidding me. I want to ask their parents: "Have you ever seen an episode of South Park? Does it not bother you that your fourth grader is watching this?"

I think that only way that britney could be considered a "role model" is that she shows young girls that if they dress like a slut, act in way that is pleasing to guys, then they can also grow up to makes millions of dollars to lip sync music that someone else wrote.

I though Britney was a good role model back when she did her first hit Baby One More Time. Back then she was pretty and innocent. Nows she's a hard core sex symbol.

I don't really respect her as much as I did back a few years ago. But that doesn't mean I don't find her attractive grin

this is why I started listening to rap. atleast the sound is REAL. all this pop is just synthesized trash. and Britany's one of the worst. She's gross; there's a girl I know who's ELEVEN that dresses in midriffs and barely-there pants. [face_disgusted]

"gyrating and thrusting her hips"

You sound like a corny, Elvis-hating parent from the 50's.

Hmmm... could this be a clue to world domination?

*note to self: investigate tight fitting clothes, and rubbing self at concerts...

guys, give her a break. she says she doesn't want to be a role model.

she wants to be rich and famous and writes music that appeals to younger girls who are generally very impressionable, but she doesn't want to be a role model. c'mon is there anything wrong with that? she's just tring to make a buck! (or two, or three... hundred... thousand) plain

"Hit me baby one more time..." How could you wanna be a role model with lyrics like that? It sounds like Brittany has an S&M fetish to me.

I saw the first five minutes of that concert, and it was incredibly sad. I don't know how people can stand to watch that, but I guess it's their business. Still, with all the good music that goes unnoticed, it's really disheartening to know that millions of people look up to and respect her.
