If you have no idea how to write women, write a male character then change the name and pronouns. Look at that, your female characters became people. It's magic!

No, this attitude is a Doug thing, not an American thing. It's a good gig, taken by many well-respected artists.

The fact that Britney is doing this at a much younger age than earlier artists speaks more to changes in the music industry than anything else IMO. Basically it is no longer possible to make big money in the studio, because all music ends up being given away for free on the internet. The way musicians get paid now is…

Seriously. Only in the Doug world is a steady casino-funded Vegas gig with major bank considered a comedown and something to snark on. I wish the best for her.

Totally. I mean, I watched the doc and she seems to really be enjoying herself. It was obvious she doesn't have that much control over big decisions (for example, she wasn't even in the room when they were all discussing her rehearsal/appearance schedule), but at the very least, making her fans happy makes her happy.…

ugh it's like no one watched her doc on the 22nd - I did and she looks great, she's smart, funny, and happy. She is more in control of her career than people here seem to think. I am going to see her in Vegas as soon as I can, I saw her her in my city and she was great!

Also, Doug Barry is kind of a dick.

To tell you the truth I was kind of happy when I first heard she signed on for a regular gig in Las Vegas. It's great money, she's close to home (and her children) and it's a stable environment for an entertainer. Whether or not her fans will show up, though, time will tell.

She looks good and healthy in these photos. Here's hoping that Vegas isn't going to be one gigantic crazy trigger for her.

Agreed. Especially with two small children. Working in Vegas keeps her much closer to home.

It's a steady job with a steady paycheck. Not all Americans think it's a bad thing. It's how some celebrities earned their way to both relevancy and solvency.

Yeah, I think this is preferable to flying her all around the world. I mean what, people are gonna stop running her like a game? It's Chinatown, Jake.

Oh wtf. There are a lot of sources saying that her show was really great last night. Why does Jezebel hate Britney so much? The only positive thing I comment I have to say about this Dirt Bag is that Rich didn't write it, hallelujah.

Elvis's love affair with drugs pre-dated him ever setting foot in Vegas.

And having a single, stable home for your children for a number of years where they can attend one school and always have their parent around. Terrible. Just awful.

Who is this? Because she definitely does not look like Britney Spears.

This was sure a lot of words to insult one performer. Bravo, Jezebel. You must feel so proud.

le sigh. All of the Britney bashing stings my heart. I know Jezebel is pointing out the obvious but I wish they'd do it more.. I don't know.. tactfully? I don't think she's in any more control of her career moves right now than she's in control of her money, friends, or any other aspect of her life. I've bought every…

Is this because I'm just an ignorant non-American that I don't get why headlining Vegas is a bad thing?

How depressing! Standing in front of a loving audience every night, and making 400 million dollars.
