A few days ago, BBC Online published this interesting piece about the media’s obsession with Britney Spears. In the article, video photographer Alex Passos says…
Everyone wants to know about her and that’s why it’s getting out of hand and dangerous now.

It will be interesting to see how much longer the media covers Britney’s woes.
