Britney: for the record

Through it all, we hear Britney talking about the hardships that led up to this comeback. "I've been through a lot, and there's a lot people don't know," she says in the film. "Sometimes it can get lonely 'cause you don't open the gate. I'm stuck in this place, and I just cope every day."

Britney also owns up to the mistakes the world has watched her make, and offers some telling insight into how she feels about it all now. "I sit there and I look back," she says, before asking rhetorically: "I'm a smart person, what the hell was I thinking?"

"So much has gone on over the last couple of years and there's a lot that people don't know about me that I want them to know," Spears told MTV News in a statement about the special. "I wanted to make this film because I started to feel like I wasn't being seen in the light that I wanted to be seen in. This is an opportunity to set the record straight and talk about what I've been through and where I'm headed."

watched that the other day, was pretty good. she's not as bad as we all make her seem, she's just sick of never having time to herself, or with her family.

It was okay. I do feel bad for her.

However, I do think she's currently medicated...she was kinda "twitchy." (not the word I really want to use, but I can't come up with the right one atm)

Can't really blame her though...I'd be on meds too if my life was a circus.

i was actually a little disappointed after seeing this... the whole time she was just trying to make everyone feel sorry for her. i was hoping she'd be stronger than that. but i can imagine how tough it is for her and having to make mistakes while the whole world is watching. but i'm sure she learned her lesson and i really do hope she brushes off the past and continues to make cool songs :]
