Hysterical 'Leave Brit Alone!' Rocks YouTube

Posted Sep 13, 07 3:22 AM CDT in US,  Gossip,  Arts & Living 

(Newser) – If it's a performance, it's better than Britney's. More than 2.8 million viewers have pored over an out-of-control rant by YouTuber "Chris Crocker" who smears his eyeliner as he sobs and screams at the "bastards" who aren't cutting Spears slack for the "hard time" she's going through, especially since critics slammed her zoned-out "comeback" performance at the MTV video music awards.

"How dare anyone out there make fun of Britney!" sobs Crocker. "Her song is called 'Gimme More' for a reason—because all you people want is more, more, more! Leave Britney alone right now! " concludes Crocker, who claims to be a19-year-old actor.  "Anyone who has a problem with her, you deal with me, because she's not well right now."

    Oops!...She Flubbed It Again Britney Spears' attempt to return to pop at last night's MTV VMAs may have fizzled, drawing boos from critics, bloggers and even fellow performers. Her fractional lip-synching to “Give Me More” left audiences unconvinced, while lethargic dancing and her added weight got bad reviews—except from gossip columnist Perez Hilton, who reveled in it. “It was so bad. It was painful. It was embarrassing. And I loved it!" More »
