Britney Spears Ad Nauseum in Glee


Britney Spears, the outdated celebrity, recently participated in an episode of Glee, which is a popular show about the adventures of a high school show choir. There was a lot of viewer anticipation for the episode, which was all about Britney. She basically played herself in the show, dancing and singing to all of her own dated songs. It's strange that she's still popular after all of her fuck-ups with drugs, marriage, and weight loss. Somehow the media companies figured they could still milk some cash from that cow and give Ms. Spears a major role in that episode.

Playing the character Brittany S. Pierce, it wasn't much of a name change for her in that episode. The plot was pea-brained simple: Brittany joined the club and all she did was sing and dance to solos. Everyone else faded into the background and became irrelevant. It was fairly obvious that the episode didn't fit well at all with the rest of the series. The reasons Brittany joined the choir club was equally ridiculous: there was a sudden huge demand for Britney's music from the club and the club had to meet the demand. Britney was already standing out like a pink elephant in that episode, but having every one of the characters sucking up to her made it even worse, especially Rachel, who dressed up almost exactly like Britney did during her teens with a naughty school girl look. So, in conclusion, this episode sucked epic balls.
