Don't Blame Britney

Have you seen the recent news that Britney Spears has hit hard times (..again, oops)?
Its upsetting because there are children involved, and its easy to judge when you are at a distance, not knowing the circumstances that have built up to this point..

Like other children that become famous early, theirs is not a normal life. And in some way, we are to blame. If you've bought the single, watched the school-girl-sexual-fantasy-video that was "Hit me baby one more time", or listened / watched to news about Brtiney, then you have, in some way, contributed to her fame, and therefore her problems.

Like Ricky Gervais' criticism of celebrity in the final episode of Extras - we are are to blame, for Britney, for Michael Jackson, for every celebrity that falls down, we have probably had a hand in helping them up there in the first place....
