Britney Baby II: The Fleshening

Tagged:

153557__brit_lSo I, uh, looked at these pictures. And somehow… I don’t feel like a vegetarian anymore. Don’t know why that is, but it’s bothering me.

By now, I should be inured to the Meat Parade that is Spearsiana. It’s not like this is the first time Brit’s posed in the nearly nude. It’s not even the first time she’s posed pregnant. As for this new sexy-pregnant direction she’s taking: One could argue her career itself has been a merry chase through every phase of implied porn, from jailbait to Marilyn and back.

Yet I find myself thinking fondly of Demi Moore, and how she managed to pull this off with such comparative style 15 years ago. Aesthetically (and I use the term loosely), there’s just something… off here. Something a photographer or an editor should’ve caught. Unless, as I suspect, the intention was to humiliate and degrade… the reader. Oogies. Just look at these. They’re the pregnant popstar equivalent of Burt Reynolds on the bearskin rug.

Still, these pics aren’t the most disturbing thing I’ve seen today. That honor goes to this (thanks, I think, to Gawker).

    Aside from being a no talent moron, she could probably come across sexy in month nine!!!

  • Jen

    Tacky, tacky, tacky!
    And how much of a hypocrit is she….telling people that she wants privacy and then showing every nook and crannie on the front of a magazine.
    Demi looked sexy. Britney just looks gross.

    Does Britney think we’re stupid?? We ALL know she looks nothing like this. Amazing what airbrushin and makeup does. She dresses like a slob and doesn’t seem to care too much about her face. We’re supposed to think she’s classy all of a sudden??

  • Rich

    Uh-oh… Hopefully Slezak didn’t see that navel!

  • Gretchen Weiners

    Forget Britney that Maury clip was amazing!

  • Liz

    PICKLE PHOBIA…There are no words…PICKLE PHOBIA?

  • nessa

    Didn’t she just tell Matt Lauer that she wanted the paparazzi to leave her alone…umm this isn’t helping her situation.
    mmmm pickles….

  • djm

    She is such a skank – I can’t believe that Harpers Bazaar is this desperate. All I can say is THANK GOD she didn’t pose for Playboy – as a subscriber to that magazine I’d hate to be subjected to this trailer trash.

    The difference between Demi & Britney’s pics (aside from 15 years) is that Demi looked like a mature, beautiful woman. Brit, with her “aw, shucks” expression, looks like she’s been knocked-up by her uncle Cooter.

    Who is this magazine supposed to appeal to? Not young men, caus it is as far from sexy as being propositioned by a homeless man who hasn’t showered in the new milennia. Not to adults, caus what adult gives a rip about Britney Spears? I just pray to the good Lord that this isn’t aimed at her teenage girl crowd… caus that message would sound something like, “Look how much fun I’m having, knocked up and naked at the same time, and showing it to the WORLD!! Don’t ‘cha wanna be just like me? Try it, it feels wonderful, see the perky look on my face? No, my face, that’s… above my breasts… i think.”
    Who wants to read this magazine? Please raise your hand, then chop it off, in hopes you cant turn the pages.

    Another example of downward spiraling celebs.

  • Amelia

    Thanks Scott… Thanks a lot. Now I’m disturbed for life!! and… PICKLES!! yes.. I am Amelia from Becca’s myspace, well… if you look at her myspace for SOME reason, I don’t know why you would though…

  • Josh

    I really want to know if she overcomes her fear of pickles! Is it wrong that I laughed so hard at someone so terrified?

  • B Ro

    Things that make you go… blah!
    Seriously, it’s too bad that she couldn’t airbrush K-Fed out of her life, what a scumbag.

  • Sven

    I am not a Britney fan, but she does look good in these photos.
