		<description>I think it&#039;s only a matter of time before Britney runs over a photographer and kills &#039;em. What happened to that sweet old Britney we used to know and love?</description>

		<description>This is a real interesting time in our society where it seems all of the people who in past years we would put on a pedestal and admire at a distance are very publically falling flat on their faces...and we have actually become more interested in watching them fall than anything else.  They don&#039;t owe us anything except to do their jobs well so we can admire their work.  What they do outside the industry they are in should be secondary and there should not be this relentless pursuit to know everything about them to the point we chase them on foot, in cars, etc. just to get a picture or image of them being normal human beings.  But tabloid journalism and behavior against these folks won&#039;t stop until we stop buying and watching it.</description>
