The director of the ‘Britney vs Spears’ Netflix documentary reveals many of the celebrities she contacted to speak on Britney’s legacy declined,

Maybe it has more to do with the fact it’s a Netflix doc than just talking about Britney

This helps for future interests. We'll know which celebrities have been enabling these things and will definitely enable more unfair things by staying silent (even after being powerful).

I’m pretty sure Britney herself didn’t like these docs either.

Sometimes I wonder about that... they surely brought attention and help her situation. But part of me still wonders what she really felt about it.

Anyways what's weird is if they were asked about her legacy, it's a pretty normal joyful fact than the  conservatorship and court stuff so it would be a easy answer.

Britney didn’t support those documentaries so I think it was basic respect to decline lol

Call them out Brit 

Well, SAM and BOBBY posted comments on Netflix's IG, calling 'Britney vs Spears' "EXPLOITATIVE." 🙂

They asked if Netflix would be "donating their fees to Britney's legal defense, or to aide those who do not have the financial resources to fight against undue conservatorships." 

Why would Britney's friends appear in a documentary that was made WITHOUT her "input or approval?" 🤔

I’ll never understand why Britney fans feel entitled to other peoples voices and public support. Just because celebrities would rather not speak out doesn't mean they had no sympathy for her or never genuinely hoped for the best outcome. I really don’t get why this is such a baffling concept to accept. Some of you act like people declined to comment solely to be spiteful.

Gaga talked about Britney after the fact though. Gaga was on mute when her voice could have actually mattered, if we're keeping it real. Saying nice things about Britney after the fact is the easy part, hence why Xtina is so dumb - because she could have actually kept it simple and cute with a "I'm happy for her and I wish her the best."

This is a fair criticism tbh. My assumption was always that Gaga was choosing to show Britney support in private rather than publicly until she was free, but I guess we never know. These situations can get real sticky, but as the public we only know a tiny bit. It's hard to make an opinion either way, but I totally understand where you're coming from!

The only person that can really say what helped her is Britney. Assuming that she reach to her privately, cause we don't know if it's the case. We can't be on Britney head and know for sure what helped her more. Regardless Cher and Miley did great bringing attention to the matter.

If you think a tweet is what helps these very complicated legal cases, then you must be very out of the loop. Especially when the media is one of the big perpetrators in this whole case. 

Remember when Gaga helped Kesha behind closed doors by paying her legal fees, and supporting her personally, instead of the big scandalous Twitter drama-seeking posts? Sure, she ended up being involved in a deeper level due to the specific case, but I'm sure even if she wasn't, just by doing those things she helped a lot more than all those "Free Kesha" tweets.

Imagine being friends with someone, and when they get in trouble, all you do to "help" is tweet about it lol

Sure, we don't know what she has done behind doors to help Britney, and maybe she didn't do anything. We might never know. All we know is she was one of the few people that was allowed to talk to Britney privately for the past decade, including in Vegas, where they frequently hung out with each other. But complaining that she didn't tweet a frivolous 'Free Britney!' and judge her for that is just tactless.

But then we don't know what was happening behind closed doors and she could have reached out but in private. Not everything needs to be a spectacle and be documented on social media just so fans feel that their fav did a good deed and act like the judge and deem them good.

If Bobby truly will be Britney's manager, then I'm sure this isn't a spontaneous thing and it has been thought about for at least a few months before Britney's freedom.

Gaga keeps it real, no way she wasn't helping Britney behind the scenes. Britney wouldn't be saying these nice things about Gaga either if Gaga just did nothing but congratulate her once she was free. Its probably that Gaga wasn't publicly as open bc when she spoke out for Kesha she kinda messed it up for her. Something about a deposition and it put Kesha in a bad 

It doesn't matter if some people assumed Gaga did nothing... BRITNEY thanked Gaga. 😍

Bobby and Sam are good friends. We don't know what's going on behind the scenes. 

Britney said what she had to say about Christina. That's her prerogative. 

She's free (finally!) and now she has to CENSOR herself because stan twitter didn't approve of her "outbursts." The irony. 🙄

And? She is free now, let's just wait she heals and releases music soon. Starting a battle with everyone who didn't support her is pointless right now. She was hurt and silenced for a long time so I understand she needs to vent, but I hope she will adjust that anger with time

who does this help now? I feel like any interest in this "list" is purely for peoples self interest and hunger for drama.

Right. I also kinda question the very existence of this documentary: anything coming after Framing Britney Spears really reeks of opportunism, so I'm not really in the mood to defend this filmmaker. Those drama stirring posts seem very in line with my impression.

I'm pointing this out because to this day I am side eying Gaga for saying anything during the difficult period, and I wonder if it's because of whatever Bobby has going on with Satan L*u Taylor.

yeah but how showing support in private helped? yes it probably made Britney helped better for a minute or two but those ones, the girls from the FB movement, Cher, Miley were the ones constantly reminding everyone that Britney was suffering and something should get done ASAP. 

This is not against Gaga i just find Britney's judgement strange. Again, she might not know all the facts yet, she have a lot to catch up.

At least she thanked Iggy! She have been talking about it for YEARS.

It does NOT matter which CELEBRITY said what prior to June 2021. As if Judge Penny gave a **** about Miley or Cher?? Come on. 😂

Give BRITNEY credit where credit's due! Nothing happened until she spoke at a hearing in June and PUBLICLY demanded the end of the conservatorship, remember?

"I've told the world I'm happy and OK... My attorney says I can't let the public know what they did to me," she explained. She's 39. She wants to get married and have more children!

I would like to be excluded from this narrative, thank you so much.

Ok sidenote. I've seen Framing Britney Spears on Hulu. How different is Britney vs. Spears on Netflix? Is it worth watching or is it all the same information?

[RitaOral 1,322]

Why should they have to? This lady just seems upset big names were declining to take party in her documentary

Almost the same, but I personally think that BvS did a better job at explaining her situation.

It’s almost like Erin Lee Carr, sorry “ELC” has a vested financial interest in promoting her documentary. No one is OBLIGATED to be in a documentary 

[LilyLark 10,104]

I feel like this is unfair to certain celebrities? IDK, what happened to Brit was horrible but lbr—up until a year and a half ago or so a lot of people thought the FreeBrit movement was sus and while the conservatorship was also viewed as suspect...few knew how bad it was.

I also feel like people are being a bit unfair to Christina, although I sort of understand where Brit may be coming from. The impression I had from some of Brit's earlier tweets that some people had tweeted out support even though she felt they didn't care about her or had done nothing when they had the opportunity to help her. Again, I like Christina and I don't think people's f*ck ups should be held against them forever, but I didn't realize just how mean she had been to Brit until some posts on here and twitter. She had made fun of Brit with Justin Timberlake (apparently a blow up doll was involved, a la Pink), dragged Brit after she shaved her head, dragged Brit over KFed, and more.

So...while I feel like it wasn't fair to call Christina out like that...I can imagine it might have been annoying asf for Brit to see someone she might have felt bullied her suddenly write a lengthy post of support...especially if she felt Christina could have reached out privately.

[SharGaga 2,906]

Why would they participate? The doc doesnt have Britneys blessing and I watched it. Its not really good either. The NYT docs were much more insightful and helpful to Britney anyway. I feel like Netflix just jumped on the bandwagon. Most of the stuff we already knew.

Tbh I understand publicists advising their clients to not talk about it (and Gaga being the rebellious and morally driven person she is, deciding against that advice), but it was the way Christina did it that bugged me. The way she looked back at her manager to get her out of the situation, and did that snarky, pouty "mmm sorry" reads very 'bitchy teenage girl' to me. Very unprofessional, and very heartless given the weight of Britney's situation. She could have politely declined. Hell, they knew she was going to get asked at some point, they had plenty of time to write and memorise a diplomatic answer! Came across so awful

I know. She could have said something like i feel bad for her and i wish her the best but i cant comment on it. Or something similar
