If your not going to watch the documentary then why are you getting paid to write about it? It's not cool to shade on someone like Britney for obvious reasons, and you can't just pretend to mock/snark the PATRIARCHY!!! when you are so clearly mocking Britney, a woman. It's so bullshit. This is supposed to a female…

I also LOVED that she is dancing again. As a dancer, I grew up looking at her choreography way before Beyonce and the other ladies came around. She's still an icon to me.

I do not get how the writers arbitrarily decide who to hate vs obsess over.

I just watched the whole thing and very much enjoyed it. Unless there's stuff going on behind the scenes that we did not see, she seems to be in control, at the very least, of her costume choices and dance moves, which is what the public sees anyway. Britney looks fantastic. Her eyes were bright and she looks…

There's literally nothing she can do to win here. Let's say they remove the conservatorship and she goes back to controlling her life. I guarantee that almost instantaneously, the media will be flooded with false stories about how she's losing her mind, making bad decisions, being a danger to her kids, whatever. We…

Why has Jezebel taken such an anti-Britney, pro-Beyonce stance? I do not understand as it doesn't seem to be shared by your readers.

That was the passage that bothered me the most. It's not a joke about the people around Britney; it's just calling Britney herself stupid. Low blow.

LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE GOD DAMMIT.

I do not get all the Britney hate on this site.

This article is so needlessly mean. I watched the documentary (unlike the supposed journalist who wrote this post, who admittedly fast forwarded through most of it — great job). I came away from it feeling so much better about Britney. Watching her on X Factor and in TV interviews, she always seems uncomfortable and…

I can't believe the backlash on here. I watched the documentary. Why? I love dancing - and Britney is one of the best dancers out there. I was hoping to see her dance again in this, and she did! She did a great job. Is she eloquent? Hell no. But she's interesting enough that it kept me tuned in the whole time. I also…

"What do you want to bet that "computer" is an old Texas Instruments Speak & Spell that they convinced her is a iMac..."

If you think this paragraph is kind... I'm not sure what to say:

Let the Gawker hate flow through you!! Her style of writing is too 'squeeeeeee!' for me. Sorry, I just don't enjoy it. And yeah, she is putting Britney down.

Just to defend Britney over here: Britney still caters to the gay community in the south and to older generations. She's from the south. I went to see her just for the "drama and cheesiness" with two gay male friends when I lived in S.C and it was awesome. She doesn't use WOC as prompts or accessories, she doesn't…

Huh...I watched it and had pretty much the opposite reaction - she looks great, happy, is smart and funny, and is more in control of her career than most people think. I will definitely be seeing her show in Vegas! #TeamBritney4ever

Yes, the article seemed pretty mean-spirited, not only making fun of her mental illness but also basically calling her stupid. I don't know how much formal education a (now-grown-up) teenage pop star ends up having - probably not much - but it's not cool to make fun of her for it. I'm sorry to see her career kind of…

I watched it last night and was actually thinking she was more engaged than I thought she'd be. She seems to enjoy the work on some level; she actually seemed okay with working on her birthday and had strong feelings about costumes (although she said she hates expressing them). Still there were obvious gross PR…

couldn't agree more, she knows whats up. she's had to draw clearer boundaries to keep some of her sanity. big deal. i say kudos to brit.

I'm getting tired of this narrative. Maybe it's because these writers have never had severe depression or a mental illness, but did anyone ever think that Britney actually is in control? That she is aware of how things used to be, and she's doing her best to do something that makes her happy? That she's trying to get…
