i just watched the Overprotected video from Britney Spears. i realized that the last time i watched that was probably 3ish years ago. maybe more. and watching it actually, strangely, explained a lot to me. from the time she was 17, Britney Spears became a symbol/icon/tangiblepiece of america. imagine being 17 years old, from kentwood louisiana, and becoming the symbol/icon/tangiblepiece of america. wow. thinking about that fucks up my brain. i feel horribly bad for Britney Spears. buuut i can't stop reading about her.
