britney should not be a national headline

okay...woke up yesterday morning. was having my bowl of cereal (kellogg's smart start--us blondes gotta do what we need to) and decided to turn on cbs's morning show, hoping to catch the basics on what's been going on in the world. the second story they focused on (and spent about five minutes focused on) was on britney spears' performance on mtv's video music awards.

this was the only thing happening this weekend? in all the world, with all that happens, we have to focus five minutes on the fact that she was wearing sparkly underwear--radiant after having two children, criticizing that her lip-sync was less than stellar?! 'her head wasn't obviously fully in the game' they observed. wait...lip-sync...at a music awards show...where you are singing in front of your collegues, to your fans that pay millions of dollars because they want to hear you sing?! the commentators bantered back and forth about if they thought she was 'back' or not and then were on to the latest headlines in iraq.

maybe i should change jobs and lip sync for a living. could pay a few bills...who knows, it could even make national headlines now. but believe me, you wouldn't want to see me in britney's outfit :)
