Britney Spears’ For The Record Recap, pt 1

by DEXIE on November 30th, 2008

Introduction : The show started with sort of a “disclaimer” from MTV saying  Britney Spears : For The Record was shot for 60 days to document Britney’s life starting on the eve of 2008 VMA’s and the days that followed. No holds barred and no questions unasked and unanswered.

Britney wanted to shed the light on things that’s been said that aren’t completely true. Not that she cares what tabloids say but it’s her time time to clear things up.

Britney asked : “what’s weird?”.

Then a reporter in the documentary asked Britney : “Your Life, Is it weird?

Britney answered : “It’s all I’ve ever known. I don’t see it being weird“.

Those words pretty much summed up the life of Britney Spears.

On the morning of 2008 VMA’s, Britney’s Dad made her Cheese grits. Britney is a southern girl and while everyone else asks for Wheaties, Britney, being a southern girl prefers cheese grits

At a gather round, Larry Rudolph and Adam Leber, along with Britney’s Dad talk about the VMA dressing room. There has to be a rule. No one is allowed to get in.

Britney was afraid she was going to fall, she was a little nervous. She’s still biting her nails A LOT.

She doesn’t like the word “comeback”. She was always around. She brought up the disastrous “Gimme More” performance form the previous VMA. She talked about good performances, and bad performances.

She always been guarded but then she let go and let people it. They took advantage of that and now Britney is paying  for it. And will continue to apy for it.

Britney also talked about her break-up with Justin. That relationship was the magnitude of her existence on the lime light. After that, she didn’t know what to do. She became a “goer”, a party girl just to escape. Having said that, she handled that particular break-up much better than the one with Kevin. That’s because she and Kevin have children. She felt so lonely and so alone.

She has her good and bad days. Things that have happened personally that has been the problem, not the business side. She got married for the idea of marriage. You’d think she would’ve have gone back to Louisiana. she was breastfeeding around that time too. She built a home in Malibu, for her children and if just fell apart. Instead of dealing with the breakup, she just ran….

Segues to Britney explaining the concept of “Womanizer” video to her Dad.  So many different women a guy is “womanizing” about but it’s actually all Britney.

Then Britney and her assistant were laughing because Jamie was actually crying upon seeing how beautiful Britney is while getting ready to shoot the “Womanizer” video. And he also sang “womanizer, womanizer, womanizer“.

More coming up soon….. the shaving, rebelling, drugs, wishing for a normalcy, etc….
