Brit
Pinkey
The Princess of Pop
Britney Spears was only 17 when she reached #1 on the U.S.
pop music charts with her 1999 debut album ...Baby One
More Time. Her catchy tunes and hubba-hubba physique
made Spears one of America's biggest pop stars, and she
became a near-constant presence on MTV, radio broadcasts
and magazine covers around the world. Britney Spears's
second album, Oops!...I Did It Again, was released in May of
2000 and went gold in its first week. In 2003 she released In
the Zone, but by then her personal life was getting more
press than her singing career. On 3 January 2004 she
married childhood friend Jason Alexander (not the Jason
Alexander of Seinfeld), then had the marriage annulled the
same day. Later in the year she married Kevin Federline, a
professional dancer whose claim to fame was fathering two
children with Moesha star Shar Jackson. Britney Spears and
Federline had two sons, Sean (b. 14 September 2005) and
Jayden (b. 12 September 2006), but Spears filed for divorce
in November of 2006 (their divorce became final on 30 July
2007). in 2007 Spears was in the gossip columns on a weekly
basis and made headlines by shaving her head, entering
rehab and, after repeated missteps with the courts, losing
custody of her children to Federline. With very little
publicity, she released Blackout, her fifth studio album, in
November 2007. Slowly she seemed to get her performing
mojo back, launching a world tour in 2009, making a guest
appearance on the TV show Glee in 2010, and settling back
into life as a major pop performer. Her other albums include
Circus in 2008 and Femme Fatale in 2011.
How Drugs Affected Her Life
Many people wonder how a person like
Britney Spears, who appears to have it all,
would enter into the world of addiction. Nonaddicts have difficulty understanding how
Britney Spears can choose to get "high" over
parenting her own children. Many nonaddictive people think that parenting instincts
come natural and nothing, including Britney
Drugged, could interfere with a parent's ability
to love and raise their children appropriately.
Britney Spears with the help of the media is
showing the world how an addict loses all
sense of purpose and what is truly important
in life
Brittney Spears did
enormous amount of Cocaine
and Ecstasy.
Information On The Drugs
Cocaine - Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant drug. The powdered
hydrochloride salt form of cocaine can be snorted or dissolved in water and
then injected. Crack is the street name given to the form of cocaine that has
been processed to make a rock crystal, which, when heated, produces
vapors that are smoked. The term “crack” refers to the crackling sound
produced by the rock as it is heated.
Ecstasy - Ecstasy is taken orally, usually as a capsule or tablet. It was initially
popular among Caucasian adolescents and young adults in the nightclub
scene or at weekend-long dance parties known as raves. More recently, the
profile of the typical Ecstasy user has changed, with the drug now affecting a
broader range of ethnic groups. Ecstasy is also popular among urban gay
males—some report using Ecstasy as part of a multiple-drug experience that
includes marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, ketamine, sildenafil
(Viagra), and other legal and illegal substances.
