Hating on Britney.
"A groundswell of sites like ihatebritneyspears.com make her the most detested celeb on the Internet, suggesting not everyone's running to buy her chart-topping new album, "In the Zone." [NYP]
Honestly, who assigned this story?? Who at the New York Post thought it would be a good idea to actually pay someone to sit in front of a computer all day googling "I hate Britney Spears." And then actually writing about the results. Which. Are. Shocking. According to this landmark study, there are actually more Britney-hating sites than Britney-loving sites. And as Gawker mentions, the growth rate of the hating-sites is astronomical! This saddens me. Who are these people, these thousands of misled people who devote their time to creating a site specifically for the purpose of hating Britney Spears?? I'm just so confused. Why would anyone hate Britney? And how do I get a gig writing for the Post?
