Did Britney Trick Little Kids Into Swearing With A "Naughty" Song?
.jpg)
The following italicized article is from www.examiner.com:Apparently, a group of parents in Australia are upset after they bought the new Britney Spears cd, "Circus," for their young children, because it contains a song that includes hidden swearing.
The song is titled "If You Seek Amy" and is actually a sound alike of "F-*-*-K Me". The line in the song that is causing all the trouble is
"All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin’ to/If You Seek Amy."
Leonie Barsenbach told the Australian news website Undercover.com that she bought the album for her five and seven year old kids, and now she feels duped. "I got them the Circus album because little kids are Britney fans, but there was no warning on the album and none of the songs listed had F-*-*-K in the title. Listening to it, it is extremely blatant and offensive. I feel I have been deceived into believing that this was acceptable content for children but instead it is objectionable."
Honestly, it is hard to feel too bad about someone getting "duped" after buying a Britney Spears cd for an elementary school kid. What could she possibly be expecting? Britney has not been hiding her sexual content- in fact, it has been a key part of her comeback. First, step back and consider whether you should be buying the "Circus" cd for a five year old, then we can talk about whether Britney is trying to get something over on you.

Britney Spears Announces Controversial Third Single
The following italicized article is from www.accesshollywood.com:“If You Seek Amy” will be the third single from Britney Spears’ “Circus,” the pop princess announced on her Web site on Wednesday.
In December, fans chose the controversial track as the song she should chose for her next single in a poll on the site, with “Amy” winning 26 percent of the vote.
Many parents are up in arms over the song’s chorus, “All of the girls and all of the boys are looking to… If you seek Amy,” which could be heard as “F*** me.”
“I was astonished and totally taken aback when I heard my 5 and 7-year-old kids walking around the house singing ‘F-U---K,” one parent has complained, according to Rolling Stone.
“When I asked them what it was, they told me it was Britney Spears. I was horrified.”
The first two singles from “Circus” were “Womanizer,” which topped the charts, and the album’s title track.
Brit took a break over the holidays from promoting the album to celebrate the wedding of her brother, Bryan, who was married on New Year’s Eve in New Orleans.

Britney Spears’ Permanent Conservatorship Goes Into Effect
The following italicized article is from www.accesshollywood.com:It’s official – Britney Spears is no longer in control of herself.
Court papers were filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday, making a judge’s October ruling (which made the conservatorship over Britney permanent) official.
The conservatorship over the pop star legally began on January 5, 2009.
The agreement gives permanent control of the pop star’s finances to her father, Jamie Spears, along with attorney Andrew Wallet. While Jamie is sole conservator over Britney’s personal matters.
In the papers pertaining to Britney’s financial matters, it states Britney “is substantially unable to manage … her financial resources or to resist fraud or undue influence.”
When it comes to control over Britney, herself, the papers state the star “is unable properly to provide for his or her personal needs for physical health, food, clothing, or shelter.”
The personal order also gives Jamie Spears “the power to restrict and limit visitors by any means.”
When Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz granted Jamie Spears a permanent conservatorship over his daughter on October 28, 2008, a court-appointed attorney for Spears said the singer did not object to the arrangement.
Britney was not present in court on Monday, and instead was represented by attorney Sam Ingham.

Britney Spears 'Let Herself Go Over Christmas'
The following italicized article is from www.showbizspy.com:Britney Spears gave in to temptation over Christmas - and indulged in lots of calorific goodies.
The Toxic singer - who has worked hard over the past few months to regain her once fabulous figure - used the Festive period as an excuse to fall off the comeback wagon.
So Britney is now starting 2009 with a revised diet and fitness regime in the hope she can burn off the pounds she's gained over the holidays.
A source says, "Britney has been working hard to get back to something like the form she used to have but Christmas is too much of a temptation for her.
"Going home for Christmas with all that food was just too much to deny herself. She indulged herself for a few days but now she's had to promise to get it all off again fast.
"This is a big year for her coming up and she can't afford any more issues with her image."

Victoria Beckham to Dine With Britney Spears?
The following italicized article is from www.showbizspy.com:Victoria Beckham is set to have dinner with Britney Spears, according to British tabloid reports.
The former Spice Girl's ex-choreographer Jamie King has reportedly agreed to take Beckham, and Spears - who is his new client - for a slap up meal at the Chateau Marmont hotel.
A source says, "Victoria knows everyone in Hollywood - expect Britney.
"She was keen to meet her, so Jamie decided to invite them both to dinner."
Victoria - who is married to LA Galaxy soccer star David Beckham - has previously said she'd hate to live her life "under the spotlight every day" like Circus singer Spears.
She told a British magazine in April last year, "I couldn't ever live a life like Britney Spears, who is under the spotlight every day.
"I couldn't do that. I would go stir crazy. I need my privacy with my husband and children otherwise I'd just go loopy.
"When we read magazines and there are so many celebrities going out doing whatever they're doing and falling out of nightclubs. But David and I are quite boring. If people really knew the truth about us they wouldn't care."
