Britney Spears

Tmz and Sam, what is going on there?

and it was obvious that fucker in the video was taunting Britney for a reaction, shame on the folks showing their ignorance over the weekend.

Tmz and Sam, what is going on there?

I don't think it's that deep (or a conspissy), it's the only gossip site out there right now and they know where to find Sam? Who isn't exactly Michael Jackson, he will answer a question or two anytime despite knowing TMZ are trash. I'd say it's a love-hate relationship.

Sam only ever talks to TMZ to defend her. This fan base usually fumes if he remains silent about everything. When he posts on his IG, people don’t take him seriously. So, when he tries to clear up narratives on camera, then, everyone fumes about him talking to a camera man.

Isn’t the TMZ footage just licensed from Backgrid? Unless they’re the same company now.

 

[Digital_Fossil]

He could always make a “jokingly” sharp quip to TMZ for running the headline, but suppose the eggshells he walks on are for his career.

She is brave for going out and dining publicly in the first place when people like that are waiting to bait her. Who videos someone else eating ten feet away?

Shocked the restaurant allowed it. How can you openly harass another patron like this?

 

[stereosalt]

Sam’s media training always shines through when he speaks, that’s for sure.

 

[Hyrulian]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again — I am so glad Britney has someone so committed to her and who is always there to defend her. I’m sad it took so long, but I’m thankful she has it now.

 

[P'NutButter]

So the restaurant confirmed she was being hounded by other customers. Humans are trash.

"Why does she stay in her house all day dancing on Insta?"

*goes out to restaurant and people can't control themselves*

"She's crazy!"

One lingering effect of the conservatorship is that in the years that it existed, through social media most celebrities came down to Earth and were revealed to be your everyday ordinary bores and narcissists. But Britney inadvertently retained this rockstar mystique (which is sort of fair, but also...not?) that creates hysteria and the urge to capture her. Moving somewhere else would have been a very good idea in 2006, but I'm not sure unless she went somewhere truly outside the traditional Western media circus that it would matter now.

Insane. They really tried setting her up.

The tweet is gone, what was it?

The tweet is gone, what was it?

TMZ reversed the audio on the clip they posted.

You can hear somebody say 'Thats Britney Spears' and the her say to the staff member 'Im just trying to get away'

 

[RoffleMayo]

The tweet is gone, what was it?

 

[blaze_dave]

She should definitely sue them, actually pathetic in this day and age.

 

[johnoclock]

So they reversed the audio to make it seem like she was speaking gibberish?

Clearly still on team con's payroll.

 

[1986]

They won’t be happy until they tear her apart. It just seems that even with all the documentaries and reassessing the behaviour of the last 20 years people still just don’t get it, haven’t these people thought maybe they are the maniacs.

 

[feared_revered]

I’m pretty sure the TMZ reversal is fake. I tried reversing it and did not get the same result. Also, all the background noise on the clip is still in reverse, with the clear “that’s Britney Spears, I’m trying to get away” over the top of it…doesn’t make sense.

 

[Mirwais Ahmadzaï]

Kind of wild how the media's coverage and public's treatment of Britney epitomizes the peak nadir of 00s trash tabloid culture and now whatever unhinged conspiratorial disinformation culture we have today.
