News Ltd music writers seem to think they have the scoop of the year by outing Britney Spears for miming at her concerts. Note to News: She has always mimed and has never denied it.
It appears that the writers for News Ltd haven’t being paying too much attention to the entertainment side of Britney’s career over the last decade, probably due to the fact that paparazzi-like stories are way more attractive to them.Yes, Britney Spears mimes. So what, it's just a pop concert.
Britney has never been about musical excellence. She isn’t trying to be Radiohead. She is simply a pop product. She produces three-minute pop songs at regular intervals that were all written by other people and her vocals are doctored in the studio. That has never been denied. Guys, just accept it for what it is and always has been.
It is just pop music. There are no meaningful social implications no matter where this goes. Britney isn’t about changing the world. She is just about giving her very young fans a bit of a visual spectacle.
News Ltd’s sensational headlines like “holed up” and “concert” shame is a complete media beat-up.
In all fairness to Britney Spears, she has never pretended to be anything other than what she is.
News Ltd wants to criticise a Big Mac for not being a fillet steak. Maybe they should just accept that some people might actually prefer the Big Mac.
