Episode 5 - Framing Britney Spears (2021)
Hey Friends! This week we're looking at the very recently released (is this the first time we've been vaguely relevant?) Framing Britney Spears Documentary (2021). Our hope is that our approach to the issues surrounding her conservatorship and her difficult relationship with the media is sensitive and well thought out. We do have moments of light relief to preserve our own sanity and lend the tone a bit of balance. Get in touch with us on the gram and the book if you want to continue this important conversation @musicsoundsbetterwithtwo Stay well, stay safe, stay out of trouble. Special thanks to Sareem Griage. J & N xoxo\n\nNote from Julie: guys, apologies for the background noise of cars bombing up and down my street. Apparently I live at Silverstone now. \u201820s plenty\u2019 who?\n\nIntro music c/o WHAT pictures\n\nLinks: \n\nScottish lingo - https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.urbandictionary.com/define.php%3fterm=Dinghy&=true\n\nhttps://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.urbandictionary.com/define.php%3fterm=Patched&=true\n\nEnglish lingo - https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.urbandictionary.com/define.php%3fterm=aired&=true\n\nChris Crocker - the OG \u2018Leave Britney Alone\u2019 campaigner lest we forget - https://youtu.be/ElXi7yDHyWo\n\nFact checks:\n\nOh boy...ok...\n\nThe lady Natalie was referring to who discusses the notion of conservatorship usually being utilised for the elderly was Vivian Lee Thoreen. People have opinions on her. Read them here https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thefocus.news/celebrity/vivian-thoreen/amp/ and judge for yourself. \n\nBritney sang \u201cLove Can Build a Bridge\u201d on the show \u2018Star Search\u2019. The host at the time was Ed McMahon. \n\nDiane Sawyer was the woman who let Britney know during an interview that someone wanted to shoot her. (The fact alone that I just typed that sentence depresses me beyond belief). \n\n\u201cFamily Fortunes goes to hell\u201d was in fact a show called Family Feud. Go figure. \n\nHeat Magazine has had many editors since it\u2019s inception in 1999. Boyd Hilton was never one of them. Always an entertainment critic, Julie. \n\nHashtags aside, Black Lives Matter and Britney should be freed. \n\nThat is all. Peace Out.
