Katie's Pop Culture: There Brintey goes, just like the Karate Kid.

So it’s been quite some time since I last posted on the blog, but it’s not without reason. I have been mulling over this post for a while, trying to let fate run its course and let myself reflect on the reality of the situation. But now I think it’s now safe let you know my take on everything.

I can sum it up in four simple words . . . . Britney is back baby!

I know, I know, you must be thinking that I’ve lost my mind. That I have finally let the awesomeness that is Britney Spears cloud my good judgment. But just hear me out.

I know there were a few of you who were shocked when Britney and Jason Trawick ended their relationship. I on the other hand, wasn’t. Don’t get me wrong, he was ok, but their relationship seemed more business than pleasure.

And as soon as the news of the breakup came out, so did the naysayers. “Is this the beginning of the next Britney downfall?” “I bet she’s going to have another breakdown!” “Oh just wait, it’s about to be 2007 all over again.”

I will admit that my heart did skip a beat when I saw her get coffee at Starbucks wearing those wretched Uggs. But guys relax; this is Britney that we are talking about. True, she doesn’t have the best track record, but she’s like a cat, she always lands on her feet no matter how bad it might seem at first. Even the with worst Britney shenanigans, I can prove there was always a silver lining that followed.

We all remember when Britney drove with her child on her lap.

Silver Lining

New awareness was brought to light about the safety of children in cars.

Britney attacked a car with an umbrella.

Silver Lining

Britney is proving that it’s always best to be prepared. You never know when you might run into a freak rainstorm.

Britney married her childhood friend Jason Alexander in Las Vegas wearing a black midriff sweater, torn jeans, and a trucker hat.

Silver Lining

At least she knew that it was customary to wear black to a formal event like a wedding. Plus, I am sure the invitation said black tie optional.

Honestly, if you think about it, aren’t we all just a little bit Britney ourselves? Haven’t we made our share of mistakes? Who of us hasn’t gotten a bad hair cut or walked on a not so clean floor? And if we are just a tad like Britney, who are we to judge her? She’s the one who is leaving her $15 million job at the “X Factor” to headline her own show in Las Vegas. She’s the one who broke up with her fiancé and then came to Elton John’s Oscar party looking killer. She’s the one who remains from awesome from head to toe.

So don’t worry guys, Britney will be just fine. After all she did once say:

“I go through life like a Karate Kid.”

I don’t really know what that means, but I’m sure Mr. Miyage would be proud.
