May 25, 2006 - Anonymous writes "Wow. Its hard to believe but an end of an era has just came. Britney Spears is now done....scraped...and over. (Can we all say: Tiffany.) C'mon, we all knew it was coming. Her first mistake was getting married. You see, Britney isnt the best singer...her sex appeal, age, and dance moves is what got her famous. 2 out of those three things....she has now lost. When she got married her sex appeal went away, and as she got older, that whole, "Oh I wanna look up to her cuz she's a teen like me" thing went away also. Now I'm not gonna blame her for the age thing, its a part of life we all cant stop but her young age with that sex appeal is what really got her famous. Even the news media is getting tired of her and same could be said with the rest of the world. Even her singles (new singles), are doing badly and its only predicted that an album flop is upon us. Now, artist like Christina Aguilera and Jessica Simpson... they have "the voice" which will of course keep them going. Which was predicted in the beginning that in the end, "the voice" would prevail. Now, I'm not saying that I hate Britney (I'll admit, I even have some of her CDs), but its apparent that she's done. Like all teen idols... a new crop only replaces the old. It's just a matter of time that some new, young, little dancing chick will come along and do what Britney, Debbie, Tiffany, and Paula have done with the same impact. Britney, retire on top...or just flop and then leave. Hey, I'm just being real here, but I wouldn't mind being proved wrong, this is just my opinion."
