Hey Britt - that's it for Louisiana?????
Here's this great article from VH1 about how all these musicians are reaching out and deep into their pockets to help New Orleans and last paragraph shows how much that idiot Brittney cares about her home state:


http://www.vh1.com/news/articles/1508783/20050901/dave_matthews_band.jhtml?headlines=true

Finally, Britney Spears, a native of Kentwood, Louisiana, posted a message on her Web site, offering her thoughts and prayers to those affected by the storm in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. "All of my family members there are safe and thank you to all my fans for your concern," the singer wrote.

5. That's not as bad as that B2K boy.
He issued a press release after the London bombing saying he was ok and asking the world to pray for his safe return to the US. Not a word about any other person.

6. What can one expect from someone like her?
In my opinion, she's a simple-minded, self-centered idiot.

8. I'm not a country music fan but Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have....
...donated the use of their Tim McGraw Sports Complex in Rayville, Louisiana...which is the next parish over from here...a rural suburb about 30 miles east of where I sit...they do a yearly benefit called Swampstock which had to be delayed last year because of Hurricane Lili...

The cause closest to Tim’s heart, Swampstock began as a softball game with hopes of raising money for hometown little league. Today, Swampstock consists of a celebrity softball game and multi-artist concert with attendance of over 11,000. Swampstock’s efforts have built a new little league park, provided little league equipment and established a college scholarship fund to help students in the Northeast Louisiana area.

10. he's a big contributor to the Red Cross as well....
....I don't like their music either...but their charity efforts are to be commended indeed...Brittany Spears is a disgrace to my state with that disgusting display in F911 alone..she's a prima donna concerned only with herself. x(

20. I also read somewhere...
that Tim said he really liked Clinton; thought he'd done a good job as President.

Most of the rest of us still think that, even if he did fuck up royally yesterday.

23. If you check out their donations, they are Democrats
They give lots of money to the DNC.
I'm not a fan of country music since that whole Dixie Chicks debacle, but I will listen to them just because they're good Dems.

11. Is she thanking her fans about the concern for her fetus?
She, like any other hollywuss person who has a mouth but who won't follow-up with their exponentially-larger-than-all-ours-combined wallets is unspeakable.

The ultimate manufactured image should be ashamed.

13. Actually, I was reading something recently that posited
that they're running out of money. He doesn't work, her fan base has essentially outgrown her, and they spend money like water.

15. HEY!!!! Raising your boyfriend's babies from various other....
ex-wives, girlfriends, pickups, one night stands is HARD WORK!!!! :mad:

Plus, scaring the crap out of little girls who outshine your little sister at movie shoots takes a toll as well. Let's have some compassion and understanding for poor Br't'nay, Britt'ney, or whatever. :sarcasm:

16. I must be real slow
I don't get what is wrong with what she said. It looks like she had "fans" writing and asking her if her family was safe and she responded. Am I missing something here?
I'm not a fan of hers, but I don't understand why she effects so many people's lives in such a bad way. :shrug:

21. Other celebs especially those in the area are pulling out their wallets
and worrying about the rest of the region - not their fancy homes!

Nicolas Cage lives in New Orleans and already is donating $1million.

22. That's just it.
HER family is safe.

No "I'm donating such and such amount of profits to whatever relief fund" or "I feel awful for the people of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, and am planning a benefit concert to benefit my home state when I've given birth and can do that."

The girl has absolutely no feelings for anyone besides herself. She's a mindless Bush-supporting bimbot.
