Britney's "Access" To Gum

31. Just because a person has fame and money: liek Britney...they shouldnt be constantly critizized for everythignt they do, shes a mother now...and soemtimes evryone has thsoe days where they just want to be heard. Its not a big deal if she was chewin gum or not....that shouldnt be everyones focus....she was just trying to tell everyone how she felt..but i guess regardless of that fact..people have continously pick and prod. Were not perfect all the time..so why do we expect celeberties to be. I give britney props....for saying it like it is....she should be praised for being so strong at a time..where constant publicity stunts are aimed at her.....shes constantly in the newspaper..for this and taht...but when it all coems down to it...shes jus tryin to get thinsg done....we all make mistakes in life...but shes constantly targetted ........ The public doesnt know whats right for her and her baby.......shes a mother now..everyone needs to cool it. Ican see the tremendous growth she has made.....as a person..I really respect her...for being herself....the good and the bad...thats being true.....and not fake. Peopel who belitle her for chewing gum on national television have to shut up...and see all the stupid and unintentioned things they did in their life. Britney spears needs to be given a break!=)

32. I dont think that her behavior has anything to do with who she is married to, its her
own persona. Maybe she had too much too soon, and has no idea what reality is. It is sad but her circumstance has made her who she is today. She is a shell of a person.

33. Basicly, Britt is a girl that doesn't have an ounce of class in her body. Gum chewing on national television, marrying a bum, and not putting your baby in a car seat are not COUNTRY! They are stupid acts. There is such a thing as a southern belle still around, and she isn't one. My theory is that she pissed off her "spin people" too much with this whole Kevin fiasco, and now no one working for her really cares how she is presented to the public anymore. SHE wanted this interview. SHE wanted to change things for the better. SHE didn't fight for the change. She seems to just assume that if she cries on tv, she'll become America's sweetheart again. Uh, no. If Britt wants to have privacy, all she has to do is go off to some small town and raise her children. (With or without Kevin, in my opinion) Right now, on tv is the last place she should be seen. Celebrities hide away all the time to have a normal life. Demi Moore is an awesome example of that. Sure, the tabloids want pictures, but in reality, they really don't care. They just want their paychecks like any other working person. Britt is really easy to poke fun act, so why pass up easy money? I don't hate the girl; I just wish she had more common sense.

36. All of these other people are saying "common sense" but I'm from Louisiana and I know there is nothing wrong with chewing gum on TV. Everybody chews gum and most people chew it like cows chowing down on grass!

37. YOU PEOPLE THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH CHEWING GUM!!!!(URRRG!!!) Most of you people who are critisizing her probably chew gum like fat cows chowing down on grass.

38. Ahh gee excuse the girl for wanting to dress on her own and try and be normal instead of being every other Hollywood moron who has people pick out their clothes for them.

Also their is NOTHING wrong with chewing gum, perhaps it makes her feel calm. I know I chew gum all the damn time, I always have a pack of gum on me.

I think she is doing good with her and her son and she is obviously a very bright girl and can do for herself seeing as she does most of her house work herself , lets try and ask Elton john if he even knows how to use a dishwasher and unlike some Hollywood moms she actually takes care of her child.

Most Hollywood moms have their newborns for about a month and then it is bye bye back to work while babies at home with a babysitter all the time.

39. (You can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can not take the trailer park out of the girl.)

*slaps* that comment is for people who have lived in a trailer park you f*cking idiot.

Educate yourself before speaking if you want to be taken seriously and not have your head bit off

41. Where's Brittany's mother? They were so close and now you don't hear or see anything about her. As for Britt's publicist, et al., I think that if no one was there to assist her in preparation of that interview, it's because she didn't want them there. I hope her publicist, agent, lawyer and everyone else who works for her, have waivers for her to sign everytime she refuses their advice or assistance. I wouldn't want to have her downfall on my resume. As for her child, I'm glad she hired a nanny. Most parents realize very quickly the difficulty of getting around and carrying your baby at the same time. And in Brittany's case, she knows she's going to attacked by everyone trying to make a buck, so it's best to always have someone with her to help. I know she wants to show off her baby and show she's a good mom by taking him out, but please think about your baby's safety first.

Note to Brittany: Perhaps you need to hire someone that can help you and give you advice on a daily basis. Someone that can advise you from what to do first thing in the morning until you go to bed at night. Have this person come live with you for about 6 months and see if it doesn't teach you a few things. Have you ever seen the movie, "My Fair Lady?" I think it can work for you. Good luck.

P.S. Perhaps Madonna wasn't as good a role model as you thought.

42. Well, call me old and too forgiving...but somehow Britney doesn't bother me like some Hollywood pop tarts.....she doesn't have a Baptist minister for a father who states, (referring to her breasts), "You gotta exploit them suckers...you can't help but to exploit them suckers..."

What you see is what you get with Spears. She may be young and dumb acting, but so are A LOT of kids her age. She just doesn't have anyone watching her back (no pun intended), and she herself, is more comfortable just being herself.

43. Britney is an adult. She is not a child. Big deal, she chewed gum on national TV. When i was pregnant with my first i was constantly chewing minty gum and chewing on ice. I didnt care where i was or who i was with. The ice cooled me down, quenched my thirst, and the gum helped me when i felt queezy. I dont think shes a bad mom. Everyday is a learning experience with your first. I didnt know how to change a diaper when i first had my daughter, and ive accidently locked her in the car. If i had cameras following me around im sure some people would be shaking their heads at me as well.

45. About Britney Spears and the gum chomping. I saw that interview. If I had been the interviewer, I would have stopped it, and told her, "little one, here is a napkin, put the damn gum in it." I could not have stood that for very long.
Goes to show you, having money does not necessarily mean she has sense. As long as she has been on television, or other media, I would have thought she knew better. But, then again? She needs someone to tell her how to act in public.
Pathetic. Great role model, there BRIT! About like your pick in men, dim witty!
