It's probably not surprising that the star once famous for repeatedly forgetting to wear her underwear in public and walking barefoot into gross gas station bathrooms has what some may deem a weird sense of what is appropriate for "back-to-school" materials.
Britney Spears is selling a handful of back-to-school items on her official website, including a laptop sleeve, a laundry bag, and a spiral-bound notebook with this provocative picture on it.
Now, the text for each product leads one to believe that these are for college-age fans heading back to campus. (The notebook is even listed as "college-ruled.")
But seriously, how many college-age fans are toting Britney gear to Poli Sci 203, or even Comp Lit 101?
In the real world, even though she herself is in her 20s and a mom twice over, Brit's fan base is still muuuuch younger, which means these items are also being marketed to grade school girls.
That picture is not provocative at all. She is barely showing any skin at all. And why get on Britney's case about the items. The decision is up to the parents. If they're okay with their child having a Britney Spears notebook, then so be it. It's not Britney's fault. Get your priority's straight. It's the parents. Not Britney.
Just more proof that Britney is still a child with a child-like mentallity. Not grown up enough to make wise decisions. Is she pretty? sure. Is she appropriate for grade school children? NO!
Prudes rule! Jeesh.
Apparently the author hasn't been to college lately. Plenty of Brittany fans there.

Her lack of talent is the only thing objectionable.
