OK! Goes for It!!

Posted Jul 24th 2007 11:30AM by TMZ Staff

In a surprising move, OK! Magazine says they're going to show Britney as she really was on the day of her disastrous photo shoot -- the good, the bad and the unbelievably ugly!

In an exclusive statement to TMZ, OK! Editor-in-Chief Sarah Ivens said, "OK! Magazine spent a heartbreaking day with Britney Spears and witnessed first-hand an emotional cry for help that will leave you shocked and sad. This week, on newsstands Friday, the truth will be told."

As TMZ first reported, Britney had a complete and total meltdown during the interview and photo shoot. OK! was faced with a huge decision; to run the horrifying photos as is and risk ruining their relationship with Brit (and potentially her career), or run a sanitized -- and untrue-- article.

In the end, it appears as if OK! chose journalism over Hollywood. OK! is OK!

92. OK is a rag magazine. What else would you expect. If they had real concerns about Brit they would not run story. However, they are in business to make $ and that will surely sell lots of magazines. I, for one, will not buy it.

93. I just read this on urgossip.com and came over here. I think it's great that they are doing this. Maybe this will bring a change to celebrity news?

94. Regarding Dannielynn Hope Birkhead....

Trustingly, Larry Birkhead will soon find the mental capacity to reason, absorb the depth and meaning of these non-isolated stories, take the critical step of selling Anna Nicole's house (placing the money in DL's trust), and courageously raise her in a more gentle environment than the fast lane environment and world of drug addiction that destroyed her mother during the period 1996-2007. Unless there was divine intervention, she most likely has inherited her mother's genetically predisposed addiction.

Instead of making such a common sense decision, he (along with Stern) will use her up just like (at least one parent) of the Lohan and Spears!

95. I hope OK does show the truth. These young people, this Spears, Lohan, Hiltons,
Bear people (Gummi and Greasy) - all of them have too much time on their hands and too much money to spend. Spoiled brats who need to be taken over their father's knee and spanked with a cat and nine tail - it's not absuive - its discipline - something all of them are lacking. None of them have a shred of character or willingness to conduct themselves with grace. . This Britany Spears is at the head of a bad list. She walks around with her mouth open all the time as though she is trying to catch flies. She is really gross.

98. perhaps if any one of these three brain-faded "starlets" who are in the news continuously ever decided to, say,...spend the same amt of time hone-ing their "talents" as they do walking the streets, then maybe they would actually earn the un-godly amts of money that they make( just being tramps )... these girls get paid so much money for no talent...it is robbery...and when the public finally gets tired of subsidizing these tramps...only then will they go away...they will have no audience...do not waste another cent on these no-talent, screwed up messes.

99. Her lawyers will never let it happen.

100. Britney,Lindsey and Paris have learned NOTHING from the Anna Nicole tradgedy. They will therefore be the next ones to fall. It's a toss-up as to which one is found dead first. Sad.

101. There aren't any celebrities to be fans of these days. Normal people who do things in my community deserve the honor and praise.

102. Anything to the rumors that she's pregnant with baby/ victim #3?????

Posted at 12:51PM on Jul 24th 2007 by tucsonmom

103. Actually I feel sad for her, her kids and her family. I don't think this is mental illness, I think it's drugs. She was fine back in the Justin days. Ever since him, she's flipped out.

104. GOOD FOR OK! MAGAZINE! i back them up 100%, no matter what brittney 'fans' will say about this. time to face the truth kiddies- your idol is nothing more than a pathetic mess. i'm glad OK magazine had the balls to run the story. as far a ruining her 'career' goes, no one has to worry about that. she did it all herself. being addicted to whatever she's taking sucks, but for all those people whining "its a disease!", guess what, i can solve that for you right now: don't start taking drugs, will you look at that. i hope what is left of her world comes crashing down and i hope her kids are removed. as a future social worker i am appalled that no one in the state of california has taken steps to have her kids removed only because she has money. please OK! magazine- don't cave in to any pressure and print the story! do it for the lulz!

105. Right on OK! It is time everyone stops coddling her and show her for what she is, a pathetic woman who is crying out for attention and help. I applaud OK for their guts to do what other tabs do not....tell the truth, no matter how boring or spectacular the story is.
