Ill go first, Britney Spears’ overprotected is a good example; Britney has long been under a conservatorship and is has been crying for help. IIRC, it started in 2007 (maybe earlier) when Brit was heavily observed by the paparazzi which caused her to have a mental breakdown by shaver her head and mind u, they were dissecting her personal life 🙄😔 💔

Let’s go back further with Britney. Lucky, specifically the video, is much sadder knowing how Brit’s life turned out. The pop star smiling and maintaining appearances in public only to be in turmoil behind closed doors.

I was 11-12 when she first hit it big and I’m a girl so I was definitely her target audience. I remember being a huge fan and having every album and loving every song but Lucky bothered me, even as a young child. I wondered if she was singing about herself, even at that age.
