Britney Spears’ Hits A Suicide Note
BRITNEY’ Spears. And a “WORLD EXCLUSIVE” on the cover of the Sun. The story: “IT WOULD BE BETTER IF I WAS DEAD.”
But Spears is not dead. She has six months to live. As the National Enquirer has told us, Spears will not reach her allotted three scores years and ten but perish on July 21 2008.
Sadly for showbiz reporters with diaries to keep, this is as precsie as it gets. But, as Sigmund Freud, told us “When we attempt to imagine death, we perceive ourselves as spectators”, and there is every chance that if the hacks remain vigilant they will capture the final moments.
Perhaps in readiness for this, Britney Spears has, as reported, penned a note. The Sun says it is a “suicide note”. It goes: “Perhaps it would be better if I was dead.”
It’s not quite “My Way”, but Spears has never been the best lyricist. Indeed, the “friend” who found the note and told the tabloids all about it discovered no more words. Perhaps with some instrumentals the refrain could be repeated over and over and over and faded out?
But “CRY FOR HELP” is a work in progress. “Tormented, terrified and mentally ill,” writes the Sun. “SUICIDAL STAR ON BRINK.” She’s the new Diana.
The paper mentions “fits of terror”, “mentally ill”, “tormented”, “manic depression” and what could be the celebrity illness of 2008, “possible multiple personality disorder”.
The Sun does not dare take its eyes from Spears. It cares enough to watch her at all times, to look on in case she does something stupid, again. Such is the paper’s care for her…
