PETA Attacks Britney For Using Elephants In "Circus" Music Video

Peta is freaking out at Britney for using dressed up elephants in her new music video for "Circus," and are not being shy about it!

In a new blog posted on their website, Peta attacks Britney, calling her a victim, an outrageous mess, even claiming she's hit a new low:

quote:

---

Now, at the bottom of the barrel, she's sporting elephants dressed in circus attire for her new video titled - what else - "Circus."

As Britney is such a victim of the paparazzi and always complaining and crying about how she hates to be held up in her guarded house and can't feel free, she of all people should be able to relate to the horror that captive animals go through when they're used for entertainment. Except Britney chooses to perform, and the lifestyle just comes with it. Animals are ripped away from their mothers at a young age, kept in chains, and prodded with electric shock devices to make them perform. That doesn't sound so voluntary to me.

Britney is now just an "outrageous" and "toxic" mess. I certainly don't want her to "gimme more," and neither do the animals who have been abused so that she can feel "lucky."

---

Peta claims to have "a killer action alert ready" to get Britney to stop using animals in her acts.


mk: in my own opinion, Britney did not cross the line. The elephant and the lions weren't harmed right. :D I bet those animals feel super lucky now. I'd rather be an elephant just to be in Brit's music video. Nah--I know that stupidity. :D

Brit rejected 2 marriage proposals!

Pop star Britney Spears has received two marriage proposals - but turned both of them down.

The 27-year-old singer - who has wed twice before - is said to have been propositioned by her paparazzo ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib, who she met up with in September.

A source said: “Adnan has been bombarding Britney with texts telling her he loves her, that she is incredibly sexy and the best thing that has ever happened to him. He has even asked her to marry him.

“Britney was taken aback. She and Adnan have amazing chemistry. But she knows he is bad news, and now friends and family are worried she will give him a second chance.”

However, Britney has also received a proposal from hair salon manager Salvatore D’Angelo, who she was introduced to last month.

The source added to Look magazine: “Things couldn’t be going better between Salvatore and Britney. Salvatore just came out with it and popped the question two weeks ago. He was at her place when he told her he has fallen in love and wants to marry her one day.

“Britney was thrilled but told him she has to concentrate on work and being a good mother to her two sons.

“However, she said if he still feels the same way at the end of next year, she will consider marrying him.”

Lindsay Blogs Support for Circus?!

PAST: We all know that for the past years Britney had a habit of partying hard and messing her life with some girls, including Lindsay Lohan. I'm not against Linds but she really became a part of the troubled Britney before right? And then she came saying that Britney was just a photo-op and other shit things to the media. Was she being a real friend to Britney?!

PRESENT: Because Britney had a successful comeback and regained to be on top, Lindsay wants to be her friend again? Funny it is but what goes around comes around, what comes up must go down.

Anyway thanks for the support Linds. Britney might appreciate it, but i'm not sure if she really needs it. :D

FASHION FACE-OFF: Britney vs. Madonna

As the ringleader in her personal Circus, Britney Spears channels her inner Madonna - and looks pretty amazing doing so, if you ask us. Go, girl!

But how does this generation's pop icon stack up with her one-time make-out partner and current A-Rod squeeze? Tell us in the survey below ...

Lynne Opens Up In Revealing Interview With The Daily Mail

Lynne Spears has been interviewed yet again discussing details about her past, as well as Britney's, playing the victim blaming many of Britney's problems on herself. In the candid sitdown with The Daily Mail, Lynne reveals Britney would never take her own life, and that something is missing; that seemingly absent spark in Britney's eyes.

On wanting to name her book "It's All My Fault:"
'I can laugh about it now, but did I feel that way at the time? Yes, I did and, if I'm being totally honest, I still do,' she says.

On her regrets:
'When her life was such a success, what did she need me for? And when things took a turn for the worse, I was out, because other people - dancers, managers - were closer to her, and with her day and night. Being a mother, you can't help but have regrets about what you did and didn't do for your kids, and I'm no different,'

On Britney and suicide:
'Yes, I did worry that that might happen,' she confesses. 'I couldn't see Britney, and you worry more when you're looking at things from a distance.' I couldn't see Britney, and you worry more when you're looking at things from a distance.'

Britney reaching out to her mother:
'When I started seeing her again, I felt more reassured,' says Lynne. 'She told me that, as bad as life can get, she still likes life too much to consider ending it.'

Lynne on Kevin:
'He has been real good with Britney, and doesn't want to keep the kids from her at all,' she says, adding that Britney's access rights translate in real terms to 'getting to see the kids almost any time she wants.'

'He's not a bad guy and he has a good heart. I would have chosen a prince or a state governor for her, but Kevin's worked a lot to help out, and I can't say anything bad about him.'

Lynne on being labeled a stage mom:
'I was never a stage mum and never Britney's manager. What really gets me about that stage mum thing is that, in this business, it's customary for the mother to take five per cent, but I never did, even when times were bad and our family needed the money.

Jamie [Britney's father] and I both said that we never wanted to be her managers; we just wanted to be parents. I was never in the driver's seat as far as Britney's career goes.'

On that certain something missing in Britney:
'I think Britney's happy in most ways - very happy with her kids and ecstatic about work, but there's something missing in her life.

That gut belief she had in herself when she was so young - that's what's missing, and she's got to get that back. She could set the world on fire in those days, and she knew exactly what she wanted. But the hardships she's been through have made her a little hesitant. She needs one big boost, one plug of energy and she'll be there.'

On Britney's childhood dreams:
'It cost a lot to send Britney to classes and competitions, and by the time she made it to the Mickey Mouse Club, what she made barely paid for the apartment we stayed in [in Florida], and with living expenses, too, it actually cost us money. But she really wanted to do it and we weren't going to stop her.'

In retrospect, does Lynne sometimes wish that she had said no to all the aspirations of her daughter? 'Well, that's unrealistic,' she says. 'You don't tell your child, "You can't play football because you might get into steroids one day", because you just don't foresee those problems. Even if I had said no to Britney, maybe worse things might have happened because she was frustrated and couldn't fulfil her dreams.'

Lynne on Jamie and the conservatorship:
'I admire Jamie for making the effort and trying to do it well. We decided he should be the one to do it, because he's the stronger figure. Mums always give in to their kids because we're softies, and what Britney needed at the time was the stronger person.'

But Jamie, too, has had his problems. He has battled with an addiction to alcohol, though he has now been sober for five years. 'We all had reservations at first,' admits Lynne, 'and we all worried that the stresses of such a major undertaking would affect them both. But Jamie's really doing well with Britney, and I must give him credit for that.'

Rules forced on Britney:
'She was spending a lot of money, so that would make sense.'

In the TV documentary For The Record, which was recently screened on Sky, Britney likened her current predicament to a jail sentence. 'I'm sure she does feel reined in too tight some days,' says Lynne, 'but it was definitely necessary in the beginning.'

'Jamie's real gruff sometimes, but he's been a disciplinarian when it was needed. He's always adored his children, but when they were younger, he was so distracted with work and was drinking heavily, so they maybe didn't bond like they should have done.'

Lynne on Sam Lutfi & Adnan Ghalib:
'Did I think it seemed right that they [Britney & Adnan] were seeing each other? Oh, no. But when I met him, Sam Lufti [Britney's former manager] was also around, and Adnan was definitely the better of the two. But Adnan's out of her life now.'

Lynne on the shock of Jamie Lynn's pregnancy:
'With Britney, everything had always been out there in the public domain,' she says. 'So, even if I wasn't used to the pain, I was still used to those things happening. But with Jamie Lynn it was so different. I couldn't believe that my studious, perfect little girl had got herself pregnant. I just went into shock. But she's doing great now, and is a wonderful mum to Maddie Briann.'

And if there is a wedding date set between Jamie Lynn and fiance Casey Aldridge? 'No,' says Lynne, 'but Jamie Lynn will do the right thing at the right time.' Does that involve having more children? 'Oh, no, definitely not,' says Lynne, horrified. 'I think it took that one time to make her grow up and realise her responsibilities.'

Lynne reflecting:
'I think I was an enabler to Britney,' she says. 'I would over-compensate and I tried to make things seem happier when my kids were growing up, because I was aware of the deficit. Maybe I didn't give her the skills to handle the hard times. Maybe I sheltered her too much from the realities, and sometimes that's not a good thing.'

When fame hit, it hit hard, 'and that's when everything started slipping away. She was a bird flying on her own, when what she most needed was to have good people around her.' And now, how does Lynne feel? 'I'm so proud of Britney. She's been through a tough time and look at her now,' she says. 'That's my baby - and she's back.'

==========================

If anyone seems more lost than Britney, it's Lynne.

New York Entertainment’s list of 28 Reasons Twilight the movie is better than the book…

1. First of all, the demands of compressing a 500-page book into a two-hour movie mean that most of the boring scenes of Edward brooding about stuff have been cut. In fact, for the entire middle third of the movie, Edward seems happy most of the time, which Robert Pattinson frankly plays a lot better than he does the dark, serious looks.

2. The movie adds an amazing sequence in which Edward takes Bella to the top of an enormous tree for a view of the mountains and river below. It actually totally rules.

3. In the movie, vampires make an unnecessary but awesome whooshing sound when they jump around.

4. Bella’s new friends in Forks have been given the Catherine Hardwicke treatment: They’re cooler, funnier, more multicultural, and way more interesting than they are in the book, where they’re mostly there to serve as distractions that Bella ignores on her way to Edward. For instance, Eric — described in the book as “a gangly boy with skin problems” who’s “the overly-helpful chess-club type” — turns into a hip, attractive Gaysian. And when everyone goes to the beach, they don’t just take boring walks to the tide pools; they go surfing!

5. Who knew Charlie’s mustache was so awesome?

6. At the movie, you get to hear teenage girls shrieking, “I love you, Edward!!!” before the opening credits even begin.

More…

7. We predict at least one actual Team Edward vs. Team Jacob riot in a movie theater somewhere in America; the rivalry gets much more visceral with audience members cheering the arrival of their heroes.

8. While the baseball scene can’t completely avoid seeming like the campy miscalculation it is, we love that the vampires wear old-timey baseball uniforms.

9. There are jokes! Like, people tell jokes! Instead of just glumly or romantically talking about things! Bella and Edward even tell jokes to each other!

10. We guess because the movie was made by non-Mormons, there’s a joke about Speedo-stuffing! And two jokes about boobs.

11. For no apparent reason, the alluring young waitress who can’t stop flirting with Edward in Port Angeles has been transformed into a weird hipster chick with a hilarious bouffant.

12. When Edward explains to Bella that he can read thoughts, he points around the restaurant and tells her what everyone’s thinking about: “Money … sex … sex … money … cat.”

13. In a touching ode to primitive research technology, Bella actually reads a little bit about vampires in a book! Before going straight to Google.

14. Unlike in Twilight the book, in which Edward’s afraid to even describe a hunt, we actually get to see Edward chase down a deer in the movie.

15. When Bella visits Edward’s family, they charmingly attempt to cook her a meal. “We finally get to use the kitchen!” Dr. Cullen says.

16. The wall of the Cullens’ house features a cute mural made up of dozens of the vampires’ high-school graduation caps.

17. Due to Edward’s chastity, at every point in the movie where you’re expecting a sex scene, the filmmakers are forced to show long sequences of Edward and Bella lying down and staring soulfully at each other. They’re even shot just like sex scenes! It’s impossible to explain just how funny this is onscreen.

18. It really drives home the book’s overarching message of the dangers of female sexuality when we actually see flushed temptress Bella, late at night in her bedroom, forcing herself upon Edward and the poor innocent vampire flinging himself against a wall to keep himself in check.

19. When Bella’s mom hears that her daughter has a boyfriend, she demands, “Are you being safe?” We foresee a whole new tie-in line of armor-plated Twilight condoms!

20. At no point in the movie does this scene occur. (Referencing the “YOU MADE ME FAINT!” scene).

21. Also, this scene was cut, thank God. (Referencing the “You’re intoxicated by my very presence” crazy).

22.In general, we’re just so relieved that the movie did away with most of the 1,000 scenes in which basically this exact thing happens:

Bella: Don’t go!
Edward: I should go, but I can’t.
Bella: I am happy!
Edward: You’re an idiot for being happy.
Bella: You are still totally gorgeous OMG OMG.

23. The other vampires - Laurent, Victoria, and James - don’t just appear out of nowhere on page 375 because Stephenie Meyer belatedly realized something needed to happen. They make appearances throughout the movie, hunting and killing humans, which gives the movie not only little bursts of much-needed action but at least a game attempt at some suspense.

24. There’s an actual fight scene between Edward and James, instead of Bella just passing out and getting told about it later. Mostly it’s just them throwing each other through windows and crap, but in a story that’s totally starved for action it’s nice that they tried.

25. The movie answers in seconds a burning question the book never bothered to address: Do
vampires in Twilight have reflections? Spoiler: Yes, they do!

26. Uh, Alice jumps onto James and TOTALLY BREAKS HIS NECK!

27. Movie prom is set in a gorgeous, opulent building with a twinkling gazebo for Edward and Bella’s final dance! Book prom takes place in the gym.

28. “And so the lion fell in love with the lamb,” Bella says. In the book, you just roll your eyes. In the movie theater, everyone cheers wildly.
