Remember back in the day when Christina Aguilera was the skanky, "dirrrrty", out of control pop star
and Britney was the sweet if not a bit naughty one?
Remember they used to have feuds via the tabloids, fueled by the tabloids and encouraged by our desire to ignore things like islamo-fascism?
My how the tides have turned. Britney has lost custody of her two sons and is due to overdose, like our adorable Heath Ledger (so strange and sad) any day now.
Meanwhile, over in "well adjusted" land, Christina has a hit album, a new lovely video
and a brand new son, Max Liron Bratman. Lechayyim! Or however you spell the Hebrew term "to life". (I know this term from playing Tzeitel in our junior high production of Fiddler on the Roof...)
As rhetoric (alright, fine, it was trash talk, but "rhetoric" is the fun, facetious term for it) wound down and the girls got into things like motherhood and marriage, more and more people speculated on the futures of the two ex-MMC alumna (again, I love using high diction words like "alumna" and "rhetoric" when talking about Britney, Christina and the Mickey Mouse Club).
Here's an eerily accurate prediction of the future from a Canadian entertainment column, published in the late 2006 (I can't tell if it's June 9 or Sept 6 because I can't tell how they're doing their dates).
Britney Vs. Christina: Who's Dirty Now?
Anyway, here's this for old times sake. (Click here if this illegal link is ever disabled):
And, of course, this (Again click here if this illegal link is disabled)
Now that everyone's all too messed up to bother with or too normal to attract attention, does that mean we'll have to pay attention to things like the worst days in global stock markets since September 11 or the upcoming election ?
Lord help us. Or at least some charismatic albeit tartish pop stars.
