[@sockruhtease]

Airy breaks alot of even the strongest snl cast members. She can even break herself, as the legend tells

[@erin5930]

I mean, Aidy was dead up hilarious in this sketch. I bet she was totally gunning for Cecily, since she’s famous for never breaking. Come to think of it, she and Aidy were rarely in sketches together. I remember that Cecily mentioned once that she and Aidy were hired on the same day, and were freaking out in excitement together. I wonder if they’re the kind of friends that are incapable of sharing sketches because they crack each other up.

[@maximusprime3459]

[@Sean-y1m]

I’m glad to see them not really mocking Britney. She’s been ridiculed by the media for long enough. I hope she can find peace and happiness out of her conservatorship. If she is capable of going on world tours, having a Las Vegas residency, being a judge on the x-factor, memorizing choreography, and doing countless interviews why isn’t she allowed control over her life? She’s it even allowed drive a car. She can’t spend the money SHE earns. People say she’s “crazy” but wouldn’t anyone get pissed at the paparazzi for following your every move and constantly flashing cameras in your face? Wouldn’t you be upset when your EVERY move is on the front page of every tabloid? She shaved her head and “attacked” a paparazzi with an umbrella and the whole world called her crazy. Anyone would react when constantly provoked for months. We all deserve privacy. She hasn’t been able to live a regular life. People think she’s “privileged” but she is just in a gilded cage. Listen to her song Lucky which describes her life. She deserves so much better. She has become a commoditized product where all those around her profit off the fruits of her labor, except for her. Throughout this all she has been so strong and resilient. Think about the strength it would take to have no privacy whatsoever. She didn’t sign up for this and has been in the industry since she was 10. I hope she can get her freedom back. I really do, she deserves happiness and peace. Until then her strength inspires me.

The narrative that they are pushing is one of ‘we support Britney Spears and we need to react because of the documentary is making ppl upset so we’re Going to include characters that are political in nature but we’re also going to make sure and cover our asses and not specifically talk about Justin Timberlake because we need to make sure that he will still except our invitation to perform on our show. That’s in addition to the fact that they made no mention of all the people that are taking her money and all the other fucked up stuff that’s going on with this situation.

Omg. This was, hands down, THE BEST Britney Spears impression on SNL I’ve ever seen. It’s amazing and there’s no cruelty. It’s purely lighthearted impersonation that demonstrates all her quirks and Britney-isms while also bringing awareness to the maltreatment she’s faced in her long career and the freedom she truly deserves. Chloe Fineman is SUPERB. #FREEBRITNEY

[@onyxxproductions8187]

She shaved her head so child services couldn't do a hair follicle test to test for drugs. She is not allowed to be alone with her kids. Her dad has been living with her so she can have regular visitation, and her visitation was reduced to 10% when her dad was no longer allowed to be around the kids, too, because of an issue he had with one of them. The conservatorship was primarily so that she could be a part of her kids' lives and to ensure that she would not use drugs, and likely part of a deal she made with Federline, who has full custody. It will be unnecessary when her kids are all over 18. Would it have been better to just let her have freedom and destroy her life? That's the path she was on. She has ONLY been able to do her shows, record, and tour because of the restrictions that keep her away from access to drugs. She might be dead by now without them. Her mental issues are very likely caused by drug use.

[@AustinSparkman]

@@onyxxproductions8187 Much of what you’re saying may be true, but could also be considered speculation. We can’t know all inner workings of this situation. A conservatorship is absolutely ideal when a person can’t handle their own life, and I feel it was an appropriate move at the time, and did save her life. However, a conservatorship lasting over a decade (around 15 years) is quite excessive, and most conservatorship cases in this legal jurisdiction never get turned around. So, it’s a big deal if Britney were to achieve any freedoms through the courts. If Kevin doesn’t want Jamie Spears around the kids, they don’t want to be around him, and Britney doesn’t want her father to be the conservator, there are other qualified people to act as a conservator in the interim until this is resolved legally. That can make things flow with much more ease. Nevertheless, at almost 40, I think Britney deserves freedom and control over her life, her success, and her career. Substantially more than that she is presently getting, at the very least.
