Dear Fans,

It has been a while since I've addressed you personally here on my official website. The last couple of years have been quite a ride for me, the media has criticized my every move and printed a skewed perception of who I really am as a human being.Behind every decision I have made in my public life there always seems to be an apparent contradiction. I have come to terms with that which is why I usually don't pay much attention to it.

The last couple of years have been very enlightening for me and now that I've had the time to be "me", I've been able to sit down and think about where I want to go with myself as an entertainer with absolutely no strings attached. I am now more mature and feel like I am finally "free". I've been working so hard on this new album and I can't wait for you all to hear it and to go on tour again! I would like to exclusively tell you that I am working hard to release the new album sometime later this year, but the date is of course not certain yet. I look forward to coming back this year bigger and better than ever, and to also reaching out to my fans on a more personal level. I noticed today that one of my biggest fansites is shutting down soon and I want you all to know that I do understand all the reasons that went behind making that decision, and I am sad to see it closing. If I were you I'd be unhappy too if I had to read what I've been reading every day. But trust me, I get it. I know I've been far from perfect and the media has had a lot of fun exaggerating my every move, but I want you all to know that I love my fans so much, and I appreciate everything you have done for me, so Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Love,
Britney


from her official website.

"no strings attached"? I'm sure kids count as strings. She is such a piece of work.

Obviously I don't know her but it's obvious that her kids are being raised my nannies. No way in hell she has the energy to raise them after partying so hard.

She is nothing but a wannabe bad girl, just like Christina Aguilera.

You've got to give it to the pros like Lindsay, now she's a true bad girl that doesn't apologize for her behavior.

FUCK OFF TWITNEY, GIS A FLASH OF YOUR BADGER ON THE WAY OUT THO'

lindsay is a douche. and a total poser/attention whore. i used to like her...back in the "mean girls" days.

i think its cool that britney gave an explanation to her fans and doesnt defend her behavior in an immature "omg, im young and i like to have fun, blah blah, etc"....like lindsay.

it's nice to see her address her fans, even the ones who ditched their fansite cos' of her behaviour. courtney should take note.

i couldn't have said it better myself. it was so fucking annoying when lindsay's mom used to come to her rescue for every fucking thing she did wrong. she's an adult for fuck's sake, her mom doesn't need to be dealing with her dirty work for her.
