For those who have followed concerns over Britney’s wellbeing for a while, Framing Britney Spears offered little by way of new information. But to have the full story detailed in chronological order with the respect and scrutiny it deserves was heartening.
-
Framing Britney Spears expertly underlines the cruelty of celebrity culture and asks serious questions about the way young women are treated as fair game by interviewers and those hoping to make a fast buck from a photo in a car park. But as to Spears’ competence with regard to running her affairs, or the reality of her life under the conservatorship, it can offer no hard evidence, and its positioning of Spears’ fans as her saviours would seem yet another example of her narrative being hijacked by strangers – well intentioned though they are.
-
It’s still rubbernecking, however seriously it takes the subject and however elegantly it sets out the timeline in that NYT typeface. But with Britney thanking her fans for their support and her lawyer declaring that “the whole world is watching”, at least now the attention is a help rather than a hindrance as she tries to reclaim control of her life.
