By Today's Standards, Has Britney Ever Been Problematic?

A white women singing about being a slave in 2020 would not roll. The song doesn’t offend me but that’s what the point of this thread was about. It just wouldn’t happen these days. 

We all know that this is not what the song is about, but I kinda understand where you're coming from... Some people are "too woke" and could try to twist things make the song sound problematic

I used to think that the “slave 4u” bit would get her some flack, but the other day I saw a couple of reaction videos on youtube for her performances from POC and they didn’t even seemed to be bothered by the lyrics (homegirl got them all pressed with the live tiger and snake dancing though)

Thisssssssssss

Oops sorry!   

Didn't she get crap from PETA though for it?  But yeah today, she would get destroyed for it so much more

Kaley Cuocco used a live snake in her lip sync battle Slave 4 U performance and I don't recall her getting flak for it?

That wasn’t her being problematic though, the photographer would have been cancelled for that. Britney was a victim. 

But her mother said that Britney locked the door and continued the shoot even though her mom didnt want her to

I remember when she started dating Kfed they talked about how she a homewrecker cause he already had pregnant girlfriend at a time, I think shed be canceled like Alicia Keys if she did that now.

Most of the times us POC don't actually care but its people getting offended for us.

Right? If i see someone wear a saree or Indian traditional clothing, i would love it. It feels like a homage being paid to my country. Idk why these American people take **** so seriously

I recall her commenting on politics and Irak war back in the day...that was really shocking at least in my country. She got a lot of negative press about it.

That would be very unfair, Britney was single Kfed was not. It was his decision. I hate when people blame women for men's decisions.

Lmfao yes omg. They feel the need to defend the "poor BIPOC community" 

[dritney]

Her use of the r word is the only thing that really sticks out to me as problematic. It was pervasive in the early 2000s. I remember my 5th grade teacher telling us not to use it.

[MyahJeanSpears]

Didn't read this whole thread but she was low-key homophobic here:

And fatphobic here: 

But obviously she wasn't in a right state of mind here. It makes me sad to see her like this  

 

 

[MyahJeanSpears]

I guess this would also be seen as kind of problematic today as well

[MyahJeanSpears]

Then also saying she's into Spanish men because they're "dangerous." or whatever. I remember that offended quite a few people.

And her saying gays are cute and work ***** is a term of endearment. But that is more innocence and naïveté on her part. Won't blame her for that because she's been heavily sheltered and isolated for 12 years.

Funny thing is she dated/****ed one "hispanic" that we know of.  She said they were bad boys or smt like that, that her dad wouldnt like it.

And people would call her Becky with the good hair for "stealing" a black womans man. Ive seen quite a few haters in the past year or so saying she deserves what shes going thru rn and she isnt the unproblematic girl people say shes bc of what she did to Shar. I think this is a ****** thing towards Britney tbh. Even If Britney knew Kevin was in a relationship, the blame would be more on him bc he had a relationship with Shar, not Britney. He was the one who had a baby girl and another baby on the way, but choose to go on tour with Britney in Europe. Of course Britney would be wrong too If she knew bc she could have walked away from the situation and put herself on Shars shoes but Kevin is the one who should be held more accountable for this, not Britney. People even say its karma what Britney is going thru but what about Kevin? He cheated on both Shar and Britney, was a terrible hubby to Britney and now is married with Britneys kids living off the big fat child support check he gets every month since 2007 while Britney is under a cship and never could fight for her kids custody again. How is this fair?

Wasn't K-Fed already separated from Shar anyways?
