Brit Dodges the 5,150 Pound Elephant

There was no Britney Spears documentary last night, there was only propaganda.
Britney Spears: Click to watch
Funny that a feature film that was supposed to examine everything in her life conveniently glossed over the parts where she was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold, flashed the no-no bits, hung around scumbags like Sam Lutfi and Adnan, and was placed under a conservatorship after being strapped onto a gurney -- twice.

Bottom line -- Britney and MTV had an opportunity to help us understand the real Britney. Then again, when a Britney tell-all is sponsored by a Britney perfume line, how real could it possibly get?

91. I watch TMZ jus bout every other night depending on what i view on the website. All i hear is negitive writing from the men and women, boys and gurlz at TMZ. Regarding Britney Spears, she is an excellent artist and what has happened to her mental health happens to many other Americans, so i feel it is not right to single her out on something she has no control over. That would be like making fun of a handicape or criple, its just not morally right. I will continue to watch the show and read the website in hopes the TMZ will clean up their act and write like non-bias professionals.

93. OK it's becoming blatantly obvious theres a brit fan whos posing as many fans, look at the style or writing, always put caps on words that they emphasize on....im talking about people like j luv , rebecca and a few others, unless they're all messed up, it seems like its only one person acting as many...the style of writing is too similar.

94. it was a rip off. she and her staff have done a very good job of managing the media for her comeback, until now. i just felt really underestimated. She should speak up and be honest. but as larry said, Play the game Britney." she said she wantedto set the record straight. she does not have the courage or character to do so. it is 2008 and she has the income and assets to be self supporting and she whines for an hour about wanting a man. She even brought up Justin T, which was years ago. it was so tired.

97. ok i dont even kno if tmz is going to let me approve this comment

this site has become unpredictable

but when u look at britney spears nowadays u can tell there is something not right with this girl
she is forever changed by her will to b "normal" but also by her desire for fame
she doesnt kno what she wants,

any one see that glamour cover? she looks psycho, the eyes dont lie, theres only so much pain she can hide. as for ppl telling the public to LEAVE HER ALONE, r u kidding me??? if she wanted to b left alone she wouldnt have become a celebrity in the first place,

(im talking she does deserve a certain amount of privacy but not when shes on a freakin whirlwind tour and shes a regular at starbucks),
sure ive been looking forward for her to get back up the horse but not before shes ready and i dont think she will ever be ready

98. This is ridiculous-Slutney whining about how bad she has it, but she's obviously enjoying all the attention and adulation. She can quit and go live in Louisiana in comparative obscurity if she wanted to, but she doesn't. She gets off on all the attention, money, fame etc. She has no real talent to speak of, just flashing her body constantly and acting like a cheap hooker. I'm amazed that this total dumba$$ has any fans left at all.

100. Her whole career is a a turn key money making operation designed to also try to ploy for sympathy. And even with this, she still manages mediocre at best walk throughs where she lip syncs with a deadened microphone and lamely struts around as others dance their ass off. Pathetic! All these people scream leave her alone, but it is her and her machine that places her square in the spotlight. Her craving for attention has always been well known and admitted by even her. People are ultimately responsible for the predicament they place themselves in and if they are not willing to accept the consequences, both positive and negative, well too bad! There is simply no way that she couldn't retire and live off the interest alone in a quieter situation than what she is currently in, but that would take restraint and responsibility which she seems to have in very short supply. Personally, I take full credit and blame for whatever situation I find myself in, so some idiotic, spoiled, abusive addict is not going to garner any sympathy whatsoever from me. Leave her alone? Someone should tell her to stop seeking out this self caused traumatic lifestyle she so craves if it sucks so damn bad.

101. First of all Britneys back and better than ever the TMZ so called people are just mad and pist that they dont have nothing to say about her. Cause the only reason people use to watch that lame show TMZ was because of Britney Spears. The queen of pop. Now that britneys doing good all you guys keep saying is that shes not but tmz BRITNEY SPEARS is movie was good all her fans loved it and the fans will love the CD. Get over yoru stupid lame web page and let Britney live just cause the people who work for you are nobodys. And no one takes a million pictures of you. Cuase no one even knows your name. Let britney be freet. THis is from a Ture BRITNEY SPEARS FAN. I DIE HARD FAN BRITNEYS NUMBER ONE BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

103. We the people have made Brit what she is, good and bad by feeding on her life. The day we back off and leave her alone will be the beginning of her real recovery. Until then one trainwreck after another.

104. Chloride metallurgy is emerging as an alternative process for the production of precious, base, and refractory metals. The solubility of CuSO^sub 4^.5H^sub 2^O is about one fifth that of CuCl^sub 2^.2H^sub 2^O. Nickel and ferrous chlorides are also more soluble than their sulfate species.1 The solubility of AgCl in 1.0 M Fe(SO^sub 4^) 1.5-0.3M H^sub 2^SO^sub 4^ solution and in 1 M FeCl^sub 3^-0.3 M HCl solution are found to be 5 and 100 ppm of AgCl(s) at 40[degrees]C, respectively.2,3

The enhanced leachability of minerals in chloride solutions can be attributed to, in part, the high oxidizing potential of the Fe(III)/Fe(II) and Cu(II)/Cu(I) couples and the high stability of the chloro-complexes of Cu(I), Ag(I), Pb(II), Zn(II), Bi(III), and Fe(III). This lowers ionic activities and potentials for sulfide corrosion as well as imparting moderate solubility of these complex species in strong brine solutions. Many transition metal ions exist as anionic complexes or ions paired with Cl-.4

105. If 100 paps can take 100 photos of Britney's cooch in 100 seconds, how long does it take for one pap to take one photo of Britney's cooch?
