Britney Spears - “I always wanted to feel free”

November 18, 2008     Britney Spears, Celebrity

Britney Spears was spotted having dinner with a male friend at Sur restaurant in Los Angeles yesterday. No word yet on who the young man, nor do we know yet if he’s truly just a friend or a date. However, despite a dinner out, it turns out that not everything is sunshine and roses for Brit, as revealed in some content that has been leaked from her upcoming MTV documentary.

Britney says there’s no excitement or passion in her life right now, admitting that while she has happy days, she also has bad days. Then she goes on to describe what her life, under the care of her father Jamie Spears, is really like.

“Even when you go to jail you know there’s the time when you’re gonna get out. But in this situation, it’s never ending. It’s just like Groundhog Day every day. I think it’s too in control. If I wasn’t under the restraints I’m under, I’d feel so liberated. When I tell them the way I feel, it’s like they hear but they’re really not listening. I never wanted to become one of those prisoner people. I always wanted to feel free.”

That’s so sad to read. Britney’s life is better right now, in the sense that I don’t open up my celebrity news every morning wondering if something tragic has happened to her. It sounds overdramatic, but honestly, while she was going through her breakdown at the beginning of this year, I almost expected to hear that she had died and I don’t think that’s too far-fetched. The road she was on was not a safe one and it had so much potential to lead to a horrible end.

I’m glad her family stepped in and helped her when she needed it most. I think it saved her life. But when I look at pictures of her these days, there are so many times that I can see her smiling - but the smile doesn’t quite reach her eyes. Britney still has a long way to go and it seems the next step is for her to be happy again.

I wonder if there’s any way for her father to balance taking care of her while giving her a little more freedom to be herself.

After reading her feelings on her life right now, the video clip of Britney Spears impersonating her father doesn’t have quite the same humor anymore.

What do you think? Will Britney Spears be able to find happiness soon?
