Flip through the latest issue of Gulf Weekly.
According to various publication and on-line gossip mags, unconfirmed rumour has it that Britney Spears popped a handful of anti-depressants before going on stage for her come-back at the MTV music awards last week.
It seems she was aware that she hadn’t rehearsed enough and as such was very nervous and then had a tantrum about her hair so was calmed down with the anti-depressants.
And if her performance was anything to go by, they worked – a little too well in fact. It was cringe-worthy to watch with little Brit obviously lip-synching (seriously out of time) and a lethargic dance routine that she only just about managed to make it through, albeit also totally out of time and completely emotionless.
I did, however, feel sorry for her when the papers around the world touted headlines of how out of shape she was and how flabby her belly looked. Compared to the majority of woman, her stomach was very close to wash-board flat and the criticism is totally indicative of how desperately ill you have to look before you’re considered to have a good figure in showbusiness.
