JUST LEAVE HER THE EFF ALONE

Brit-brit

The folks at page six posted this item about an open letter from Rabbi Boteach urging her to get her shit together. Why didn't he just send it to her? Why make a letter open? Sorry if I'm mistaken, but shouldn't open letter writers at least attempt to send the thing to the person first? I mean then you could be vindicatged in your asshole move of publising the letter, opening it to the public. I really don't know about the etiquette of snail mail, or even much about "paper things" as opposed to virtual ones; but I digress.

February 12, 2007 -- EVEN though Britney Spears forgot to put her Star of David around her neck Saturday night (inset, picking up a friend in the West Village for a night on the town), Rabbi Shmuley Boteach has some advice for the pop tart. In an open letter to Spears, Shmuley said, "Allow me to share with you a teaching of the ancient Rabbis." These teachings include tips like, "Once you become a parent, Britney, life gets really serious . . . We can all pretend that life is one big party devoid of responsibility. And rarely being home, or coming home drunk, or letting your kids see you in a degraded state, will permanently scar your kids." Shmuley continues, "Soon your boys will be surfing the Internet. They'll see a lot of photos of you in poses that no son should ever see their own mother . . . Try and be home with your kids . . . Cover up . . . Limit the visits to the nightclubs." The spiritual leader ends his letter by saying, "I know you can get your life together, Britney. G - d bless you."
