It was a step in the wrong direction for her and i still don't understand it. 

I liked her deep lyrics in her first 2 albums. But in The Best Damn Thing she was the popchick she hated. There are good songs on it, like Runaway and Keep Holding On but the rest was very se.xualized. 

But recordlabels are often very dumb, they wanted Girlfriend 2 and we got What The Hell... like what the hell?

I wasn’t a fan of pop Avril.

Every female singer who started in the late 90's or early 2000's talked bad about Britney... I'm sure it was a request from their labels, that's why today they talk good about her..

Is this the Nicki Minaj conspiracy that labels are against her? lol

That persona was all fake, Avril was always shallow and now shes grown into being her true basic shallow self. It wasnt really fake, she was just too young and didnt understand who she was.

She adores Britney now!

Sorry but she can **** right off. She was more manufactured than Britney ever was in my opinion. That was her whole “gimmick” and I think her label pushed her into being “Anti Britney” because that was the “in” thing at the time. Anyway, she ended up flopping everywhere but Japan after her 2nd album, didn’t she?. That “Ho” comment was gross, but she did pick Britney over Christina when asked…

I mean, mixed feelings about it.

On the one hand, was there any need to be mean to Britney? She's always being known for being the sweetest and the kindest girl out there and never had anything bad to say about anybody. So it pisses me off to see someone freely doubting her choices regarding her choreographies, her outfits and whatnot. Keep those opinions to yourself 

 

Yeah looking back now it seems crazy that sooo many people were mean to Britney but I think it had a lot to do with how popular she was for such a long time. She was like the mania of Justin Bieber/Jonas Brothers/The Kardashians/ combined. People were OBSESSED with her for years so then people got annoyed with her being everywhere I guess? And it was also so much jealously because I think she was just effortlessly beautiful/talented/kind etc.

it still doesn’t make being mean to her or putting her down okay!

I remember my big sister was an OG fan of both Britney and Avril, but she dropped Avril like a bad habit once she called B a h0e 🤣

You’re right! It’s kinda crazy how recent the shift is in our culture that everyone is publicly nice to everyone and a fan of everyone. Back then it was all about dissing people 

[WilderWein]

Avril is another person who built a career on shading Britney, on being the anti-Britney. She looked gross and behaved embarrassing, thinking she was a edgy and all. A bully. Thinking she was above Britney for not showing skin. 

[princessmimi]

Avril was either really jealous of Britney or she was pushed to diss her since she was the "anti Britney".

I just find it hilarious how she couldnt even speak when confronted by Carlson about what she said of Britney.

At least OWN UP to what you say!

Dont be two faced

maybe bc she was one of the most insincere pop artist in that time

 

she was basically fabricated in the same lab as P!nk, by LA reid

but she was young too all is forgiven and her songs is awesome

the men around were the ones to blame

there were rumours 15 years ago they clubbed together,

Britney probably likes her

 

 

is she a Kardashian artist now? 

i kinda like this:

 

Um no… she wasn’t “fabricated” in the same “lab” as Pink. She was actually discovered by Shania Twain. Look. It. Up. 
 

Edit: Yes, L.A. Reid signed her though.

but the label transformed her with that punk girl anti-britney attitude

You were right that L.A. Reid had his hand in her career though signing her onto the label. I didn’t know that. I only knew the Shania connection.
