Topic > Britney Spears - 1560

Modern society has created a subculture that lives in a reality that is not real. It is so far from the truth that the inhabitants of this subculture so often fail to live in both realities and have become a sight for others to marvel at. This subculture is made up of entertainers, millionaires, and athletes. People in this group can vary from birth to death and some even live after. The exemplars that interest me are the young people who enter this society not knowing well that their life will never be the same again. Britney Spears was just another victim of society that lands her in prison. Britney Spears was born on December 2, 1981. She lived in Kentwood, Louisiana and constantly performed in front of people and always wanted to participate in "Star Search". Britney tried to join the New Mickey Mouse Club at age 8 and then again at age 11 and made it. Then she went solo because her talent was evident and she wanted more (A&E Television Networks, 2011). Britney had a lot of success from 1998 to 2000. During these years, things were changing for her. Britney told people she would "remain a virgin until marriage," but posed in photos that convinced people to think otherwise. His albums were still selling in the United States and Europe. He took many successful paths until 2003 (Wikipedia, 2011). Her audience finally saw her as a woman and not a girl. In 2002, Britney and her boyfriend Justin Timberlake broke up. The following year, during the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, Britney and former Mouseketeer Christina Alguilera sensually kissed Madonna (A&E Television Networks, 2011). Madonna was a big influence in Britney's life. Since it was a... middle of paper... the reality disturbance is not as extreme as it could be from the information that could be found. For this reason, there may be hope that he can live without drugs and only with therapy. This would be determined as it progresses. Having a stable support system may allow Britney to return to singing again, but I would only recommend doing so for small periods of time. So many young people are entering the entertainment industry. Most of them don't know that without a support system to keep them grounded and stable, their mental development can be compromised. The society that we place so high in our culture and deem worthy of such high praise eats our children alive. They grow up too fast, have to constantly defend themselves, and are watched 24 hours a day. As a society, we need to take a look at what we are doing to people in the entertainment industry.
