Britney’s Letter to the People

Britney Spears has put up an open letter on her website to ‘clear up’ a few things about her.

It’s the same old ‘being a celebrity is so hard’ bit. Although pretty out of the blue as far as Brit is concerned, it comes at a good time for another rehab hopeful, Lindsay Lohan, who this week checked into the same clinic Britney went to.

Promises in Malibu = Good.

Wonderland = not very successful.

Here is some of her [edited] diatribe:

Recently, I was sent to a very humbling place called rehab. I truly hit rock bottom. Till this day I don’t think that it was alcohol or depression. I was like a bad kid running around with ADD. I had a manager from a long time ago come in and try to direct me and my life after I got my divorce. I was so overwhelmed I think that I was in a little shock too. I didn’t know who to go to. I realized how much energy and love I had put into my past relationship when it was gone because I genuinely did not know what to do with myself, and it made me so sad. I confess, I was so lost.

I used to be angry at the tabloids for printing horrible things about me, but now I try to just be numb to what I see. I saw Tyra Banks once get really upset and cry on her show because they made her look fat. We all want a certain image of ourselves out there, and at some point we all do really care what other people think or we wouldn’t be here.

I feel like some of the people in my life made more of some issues than was necessary. I also feel like they knew I was beginning to use my brain for a change and cut some ties, so they wanted to be in more control of my life than me. I think it is actually normal for a young girl to go out after a huge divorce. I think it was a bigger issue because I had not gone out in such a long time. I am 25 and I do still have a lot to learn, and I am going to make mistakes everyday, and I am sure every mistake I make will probably be on CNN or Good Morning America. I am only human people and I love you for still loving me.

Yeah, what did I tell you? There’s more here, but Britney saves the most vague for last:

Quote of the month…
It is ok to disagree with people regarding certain issues. You?re not being true to yourself if you succumb to others opinions because you feel guilty.
