It's been a long time since I posted anything here, so I thought to clear the cobwebs for a bit because I found a rather eye opening article that popped up just recently concerning Bjork.
Here's a link: www.postchronicle.com/news/or...79.shtml
The jist of it is is that Bjork understands and sympathises with Britney's struggle to balance her musical career with the constant invasion of her privacy.
I find it interesting that she would say this. I wonder what she thinks of Britney Spears music in general?
Personally, I'm torn on this.
I myself have empathy regarding Britney's breakdown. But at the same time, I don't agree with her art because it's all manufactured. Bjork works hard on her music, writes her own lyrics, and generally oversees everything. Britney's music was conceived by pop producers and marketing gurus. She doesn't possess an identity of her own outside of bubblegum pop. I only know of one song that she wrote herself.
I think of this as Bjork only sympathising with the situation. Then again, so have other celebrities so it's surprising that Bjork would join such a chorus.

I should also point out that this is pure gossip. There's a lot that's unspecified. -

Mon, June 11, 2007 - 6:57 PMwell i for one believe we need more gossip, less "real" news. I'm sure if anyone can relate to their privacy being invaded, its good ole bjork. remember the photog beatdown(s)??? as for her sympathisizing w/ britney, i just wish they'd collaborate on some music!!!!! -

I don't think there's an even remote possiblity of the styles contrasting and gelling together.
Bjork has a strong, raw, primal identity that is all her own and 100% real. Britany's identity comes from studio tinkering and the hands of producers.

Re: Bjork Sympathising With Britney Spears?
Tue, June 12, 2007 - 11:20 AMI'd be surprised and very disappointed if Bjork DIDN'T express sympathy for Britney Spears. Suffering is suffering, no matter how famous you are. I find it very sad how much the American public seems to enjoy watching celebrities self-destruct. When it comes to compassion the artistic merit of Britney's music is irrelevant. I believe Bjork was expressing herself honestly and humanely about a subject she is very familiar with, the high cost of fame. -

Yeah, she's honest about it and still has integrity.
It's another shade of grey is what it is. I have empathy for Britney in that I think she's going through a rough period in her life. I just don't agree with her art. It's too artificial and also the fact that she basically became a walking advertisement for Pepsi in the early years before the breakdown.

As an addition to this news, I recently read the letter of apology she wrote on her website.
I have to say that...it was the most genuine, heartfelt admition of ones human flaws I had ever heard. I saw beneath the exterior and found a very real person underneath. How shocking. You learn something new everyday.
Now, if only she would use this to her advantage like putting this upfront attitude into her music while saying no to corporate shilling or studio interfereance. She should also take a cue from the very person who sympathises with her: Bjork herself.
There's massive potential in there.

Re: Bjork Sympathising With Britney Spears?
Tue, June 12, 2007 - 2:18 PMYeah, I never found her music very interesting. I think of her as a successful marketing creation more than a musical artist. Years from now after she's faced her demons she may discover some authentic creative soul, who knows. But I doubt she could ever develop into an artist that can stand toe to toe with Bjork, who is so high up in the creative stratosphere gravity can barely maintain its hold on her. -

Suffering is suffering doesn't quite work for me....
If someone endlessly pushes her blonde over-exposed pussy in the publics' face in a calculated effort to whore her way to fame and riches... then i have VEEEEEEERY little sympathy for her when it gets out of her control... If perhaps she had relied on an actual TALENT to become famous..., then sympathy would be in order........
NOT in that useless bitches case.....(same for Ms. Hilton) -

I think this is something else I've been meaning to say as well: Personal responsiblity.
Britney should start practicing this. Bjork knows how to guard her privacy and when NOT to seek attention.
It's up to her, however. She's still very young and needs to go through more experiences like the one she's in now to get more enlightment that'll help her make healthy decisions in life. -

Huh?, Bunny..?
I don't get it...?
Madonna had talent and intelligence from jumpstreet... even tho she used her 'blonde' pussy inordinately.. There was plenty of art and message in her shyt...
UNTIL around the time she actually jumped on the Britney bandwagon..., in order to 'seem' relevant or 'hip' at the time..... That's when i lost respect for Maddoga.....

Bjork is an Artist, a real artist, and very good one.
britney is a whore. (i'm sorry, what??) A WHORE.
there is no room for comparison. if bjork mentioned her name it's solely because of her good kind loving compassionate heart.

I think it all boils down to two things: Personal Responsiblity and Identity.
I have sympathy for Britney myself. But in these two key areas, I can't have complete sympathy. If Britney wants symapthy, she needs to earn it.
She first needs to get an identity of her own and not have it dictated to her by marketing research and studio producers if she wants to be a real musician. Secondly, she needs to know what her personal boundries are. While I agree the paparazzi are the lowest-common denominator of the entertainment industry, there's also such a thing as restraint. I'm not saying pack your bags and live a life of complete isolation. More like know when and where to go out. -

But I get what you mean. Sorry about that.

I wouldn't be suprised if Britney had one cooking somewhere around the tribe network.
But enough about her. I think the thread has served as much as it could.

Sat, January 26, 2008 - 10:57 PMwho cares what bjork thinks of her music ..
or any of us for that matter ..
britney spears is a human being,
our sister ..
she deserves our love & support
during her movement through
the evolutionary healing
of her psyche ..
perhaps,
true personal support is what she
is really lacking in her life ..
cause maybe she would be
curled up safely & warmly
in some loving arms
rather than spread across
the page for the buzzards .. -

Re: *OMG, you people.
Fri, June 13, 2008 - 9:14 PMthat's why i've never wanted to be famous, what hell not to be incognito when doing everyday things...i feel for both of them as well, but bjork definitely has more gust to her artistic profile...she's at the forefront and britney's in the other room lapdancing : )
