Petiton calls for replacement of Confederate monuments with Britney statues

[PeterPaul]

Apparently over 13,000 people have already voted for replacement of confederate statues in New Orleans with statues of Britney!!! How crazy!

The petition reads:

Quote

Before becoming one of the world's most important and influential pop legends, Britney Spears was living life in a small southern town by the name of Kentwood, Louisiana.

Not only has Britney proven her talent, but she's proven her strength of character by not only overcoming highly publicized mental breakdown, but by continuously working towards improving herself. She's an inspiration to millions. 
While her contributions are too many to list here, below are a few examples of her charitable efforts to give back to her beloved home state:

- In 2006, "The Britney Spears Foundation" raised $585,000 for charity, and donated a large portion of it to Hurricane Katrina relief programmes.

- Teamed up with Red Cross in 2016 to raise money for Louisiana flood victims. Along with Ellen DeGeneres, donated $250,000 to this relief.

- Currently donating some of her Vegas ticket show sales to Louisiana schools for flood recovery. The money donated will be contributed to a state fund, which will help teachers purchase supplies and materials.

She's already earned her star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, and now it's time for her home state to honor her with the tribute that she deserves.

Do the right thing: Replace the Confederate statues with an actual louisiana hero and influencial human being, Britney Spears 

You can sign the petition on Change.org.
 

Also the fact that this is being reported worldwide is pretty crazy too imo. My flop country slays I guess.

Omg this is amazing! The fact Exhale is sleeping on this is a CRIME and I won't stand for it.

Seems like one person is signing every second right now. Up to 15,600+ signatures. 
 

Britney deserves it. It seems pretty rare to be a star of her caliber and for so many years while being so unproblematic. She’s never had a complaint from anyone about her being hateful or prejudiced or anything, only sweet and down to earth. And she’s stuck up for gays and blacks since early in her career. What a legend 

[OnlyBeyonce]

Of Course Beyoncè has already her own statue

The Statue of Libritney.

I support this movement 

[jordeezy river red]

I mean - I think history is important to remember and maybe the unfavorable statues can be moved to a place specifically about history.  I think Britney could be a good addition but I do not think she would want to be made into a racial figure.  IDK.  It just feels problematic.

I signed it yesterday and was surprised Exhale hadn’t reported it yet. I stand behind this 1000%. This is the change America needs.

Let's be real. The statue will have to be of a black person, which sadly rules Britney out.

Who knows?  I truly think that it should be left to the New Orleans locals and not a bunch of young Twittersphere activists.  Hopefully it would be something that promotes inclusiveness for all races.  The modern South is SO much more diverse and accepting than most people want to give them credit for.

There's petition about replacing Confederate statues in Louisiana with Britney ones. I'm all in . Now which statues of Britney should be build? I'm voting for this one

We shoud really value the national treasure. Remember when Britney improved unemployment in 2013 by Work Beep? That's called talent
