Gimme More 35,366 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 It was AMAZING, it was very pro free Britney! Did you watch? I highly recommend watching this, especially if you are not too familiar If you want to watch, PM me Spoiler/summary: Spoiler -They looked at her whole career - They questioned how somebody who has gone on multiple world tours, been a judge on X Factor, have a successful 5 year residency yet still be in a conservatorship? The lawyer Britney tried to appoint in 2008 states that if she was classed as a 'high functioning conservatee' in recent court filings why on earth is she in a conservatorship? -NYT's mentioned that they tried to reach out to Britney through her team to ask if she would like to be involved but they are unsure whether she was actually told about her their request as they had no response. -Jamie Spears, Lynne Spears, Britney's lawyer Sam Ingham, Jamie-Lynn Spears, Sam Lutfi (Britney's ex 'manager' from 2007-2008) refused to give interviews on camera so were not involved. -They talked about the ongoing fan movement 'Free Britney' and the support it has had by many fans and Paris Hilton, Miley Cyrus etc. -Fe revealed when Britney was just getting famous Britney wanted to take out money from the bank and drive around her home town giving out $100 to everyone – which she did. Fe said Britney didn’t do it to say ‘Hi I’m Britney Spears’, she merely did it to say ‘Merry Christmas’. -They revealed how Britney wants someone else to deal with her money and she wants Jamie her father to step down, but he refuses to step down. -They brought up there is a restraining order against Jamie going near any of Britney’s sons after he ‘allegedly’ attacked one of her sons. -They also mentioned how Britney welcomes the informed support of her many fans – basically stating how she supports the Free Britney movement. -They revealed that Britney was supposed to speak AND perform at the announcement of Domination but instead last minute she was rushed through the 'announcement' and put into a car and drove off. -They also actually mentioned in the documentary how Britney's lawyer has stated that Britney is afraid of her father and refuses to work until he is no longer in control. -Britney's assistant Fe said she knows how much Britney is capable of so the thought of Britney being in a c-ship is confusing to her -Fe also stated that for some unknown reason she was not brought back by Britney's team (Jamie) after the c-ship, she said she was hired through touring agencies and she was relegated to doing backstage tours and was not allowed to be back to being her personal assistant. She was unsure why they wouldn't hire her again to work directly with Britney 24/7 like she used to. -Fe said she is only doing the documentary to remind people why they fell in love with her in the first place. Fe said she believes Britney would speak out one day and tell her story. -They kept mentioning throughout with a lot of money involved you never know what the intentions are of the people around you and that it is VERY hard to get to speak to people around Britney as there are lots of NDA’s and people are afraid to speak. -They said how we really don’t know Britney anymore, she can’t speak and anyone that has interviewed her over the past decade had to have questions approved and were kept a close eye on. -The lawyer Britney hired to prevent the c-ship was in the documentary and he said how he believed Britney seemed of sound mind and she strongly opposed to her dad being her conservator, she would rather have a bank in charge. The lawyer stated that the judge made the wrong decision in not allowing him to represent Britney due to stating she was ‘unable to appoint counsel due to her condition’. -Jamie’s lawyer Vivian was in the documentary (We hate her) – she said in her experience in all cases she’s been involved in no-one has ever been able to get out of a conservatorship. -They included the voicemail from the Paralegal which started the Free Britney movement, the Paralegal was someone who allegedly worked for one of the c-ship lawyers and said how Britney was forced into a Mental Health facility against her will in mid January 2019 and was in there for 3 months. -The documentary was heavily focused on how she used to have so much control and now she has literally no control at all and her dad and team make every single one of her decisions. -The documentary also talked about how people used to inappropriately asked her about her breasts when she was 16/17 years old in interviews and always asking about her virginity - something that would not be okay -There was big focus on how this conservatorship was labelled as ‘a hybrid business model’ in 2018/2019 and that it appears to be more about her wealth than Britney. -They mentioned how her dad was an alcoholic and wasn't much of a presence in Britney's life and was in and out of rehab. -Britney's former talent agent for when Britney was a child described her as a 'funny, sweet and talented little girl' - she stated how much she loved Britney and how she still does. - They included how Britney’s family was very poor and Lynne saved all the money she could to get Britney singing lessons and to do all she could to make Britney a success - The Director of Britney’s former record label Jive revealed they wanted to market her as the girl with strength, the friend you idolise but at the end of the day has the same hopes and dreams you do. She also revealed Britney’s mom did whatever she could for Britney’s sake and for her family’s sake to make Britney a star. - The Director of Jive said Lynne really supported Britney and that she never spoke to her father, apart from once when he said ‘my daughter is going to be so rich, she’s going to buy me a boat’- she said that with disgust and said she will not say anything further regarding her thoughts on Britney’s father. - They talked about how much of a phenomenon Britney was when she came out - They talked about how much Britney was sexualised and how the media would ask her about her breasts when she was only 16/17 and how they asked her about her virginity – something that would not be done now. - They talked about how everyone and the media painted her as the bad one when her and Justin broke up. How disrespectful Justin was after the break up talking about their sex life on the radio after their break up revealing she was not a virgin and how he ‘f*cked her’. - They showed how much Britney was mistreated by the media and how awful she was. - They even included the clip of people saying they wanted to ‘shoot Britney’ and Britney’s reaction to that. - Britney’s dancer from 1999-2004 talked about how Britney was in control of her career pre-conservatorship - They documentary focused on how in control Britney actually was pre-conservatorship. - They brought up how she was quickly labelled as ‘crazy’ and that there was not a focus on mental health and people made a joke about her awful situation and just cashing in on her. - They mentioned Sam Lutfi, Britney’s fomer ‘manager’ during 2007/2008 and how he was bad and included Lynne’s allegations that he controlled Britney and drugged her and crushed pills in her food during that time. They mentioned how they have an ongoing restraining order against him coming anywhere near Britney. - They talked about Britney’s Instagram - They mentioned the current court battles and how Britney now has Bessemer Trust involved. How her mother is supportive of her being free. - They included the 2020 interview of Britney’s brother stating Britney has always wanted to be out of the conservatorship - They talked about how hard it is to actually be able to talk to Britney or know how she is feeling. - They talked about how she was quickly working mere months after her 51/50 holds! - They did not mention Britney’s corrupt Business manager Lou Taylor (guess they didn’t want to get sued), they mainly focused on Britney’s dad Jamie. Some fans this documentary was ‘Project Rose’ that Britney has been teasing on Instagram for a while now as there was Roses featured heavily throughout and the documentary ended with a video of Britney talking holding a Rose shaped soap. In the credits the background features Roses – something Britney has posted a lot about on social media. It could be something the Director picked up on and wanted to include or maybe someone close to Britney said to include it, it is personally odd to me why they’d end it with her and a rose if it didn’t mean anything… The above is only SOME of the information, I really recommend watching the documentary.

gagaisitalian 3,573 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I loved it! Even as a pretty big fan, I never knew the extent of some of these things. I especially liked how they took a look at the Britney Domination event because something was definitely off about that. Also, as a kid growing up with her, I only saw how amazing her music videos were and how amazing her music was. I did not realize that from DAY ONE she was ridiculed by the media. She was literally on top of the world from 1999-2004 and all talk shows could talk about were her boobs. Such BS. All those people (Jimmy Kimmel, Rosie O'Donnel, any other bad talk show host) literally owe her an apology... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinfullota 300 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Are we allowed to embed a vimeo video here? I mean it's uploaded and not a download link. If it's allowed, let me know, then I'll post it. My thoughts: nothing yet, cause I have a virtual get together with all my friends and we will watch it together. Yes I'm making them watch it to spread awareness, also most of them are interested in what's going on anyway. I can't wait to watch it. I'll come back and share my thoughts later on.

Essence 232 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I thought it was a brilliantly crafted documentary. I loved that it featured so many insightful expert voices such as Wesley Morris and Joe Coscarelli to weigh in on the cultural context of Britney’s story. I hope it raises awareness about the details of this issue amongst fans but also to an audience that wouldn’t necessary take it seriously otherwise (NYTimes’ viewership) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BABYL0N 3,157 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Currently still watching i‘m at the first hour of the first episode and it’s really one of the best documentaries ever made about a popstar. Definitely gonna watch it with my local friends and relatives since they all have that typical frame of Britneys career through the eyes of the mass media In their minds, this documentation shows exactly what everyone has to see and has to know... really hope it gets more exposure (globally too) and will really help her out of her situation 🙏🏻 Her fans really worked hard and with dedication for the movement hopefully they will achieve something with this Free Britney Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme More 35,366 Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 Some fans think this is 'Project Rose' that she's been talking about on instagram for quite a while. This is due tot there being A LOT of roses. From random shots of roses, to roses being in the backdrop of the interview set, to the ending... Plus Britney posts about roses all the time! Thoughts? Could she have asked someone involved to include Roses in the documentary? like Fe? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way she even said she welcomes to the informed support of her fans I'm really happy to hear you're going to watch it with friends & relatives love that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe people let that useless excuse of human being Justin T got away with all his nasty behaviour Were there no feminists back then? How he treated her like that in public without any consequences? Also wtf at the grown ass men interviewers asking her those nasty questions when she was not even 18 yet? People was crazy back then!
