Britney: For The Record Review

Some of you may be wondering what exactly Britney Spears talks about in Britney: For The Record. Some topics she touches on during the documentary are:

• Kevin Federline


• Head shaving incident


• Aftermath of her 2007 meltdown


• Her life now


• and more

I watched Britney: For The Record when it aired on MTV for the first time. I enjoyed the documentary because it was the first time in years that Britney Spears did an interview and talked about her life. I was excited to get to see behind the scenes footage and listen to Britney talk about things that everyone had been talking about but her.

The plus side of the documentary is that we get to see that Britney understands that she has made mistakes and is trying to make her life better. The downside is, there was a lot left unanswered. I personally think that is fine since most of her life is in the public anyways. She, like everybody else, needs her personal space. But to some people, it is not enough. I think she answered vaguely because of 2 reasons.

1. She does not know the answers completely herself. She is still confused and trying to find her normalcy again.

2. She does not want people knowing every small detail that happens in her life. People can know she is okay and things are fine without having to know everything.

Britney laughs, cries, and admits to things she has never admitted to before. You get to see what kinds of things she deals with from day to day, and what mindset she is in.

Madonna also makes an appearance.

If you like Britney Spears, don't like Britney Spears, or just want to know what is going on in her life lately without all of the tabloid mess - Britney: For The Record is a good choice.

"Do I know my life is weird? It's all I've ever known"

"When it ended I felt so alone. I didn't really wanna think about the reality of it. I never faced it . . . I just ran."

"I used to be a cool chick but I feel like the paparazzi has taken that away from me, like, the way I used to live my life"

"My life is worse than a prison sentence."
