I love T.I but when i seen this video i automatically
thought about how this movie puts some sort of labelling
of women in it.
This video completely degrates women. It over all says
that we can't be independent, and make money for ourselves.
That we always need men to take care of us. It says that we
can be bought.

Papz going to far?
Papz Going to far?
Our society critisizes celebrities a lot. Sometimes way too much, but can you blame us? We can't avoid it, celebrities are everywhere; on the t.v, in the news papers, in magazines, and on bilboards. So really how can we help but to judge them. Britney has been an amazing entertainer, and has been in amazing shape all her life. Then out of nowhere she comes out with basically nothing on, and looking less than great. She just has two kids and is not completely back in shape. So why on earth is she wearing just her panties?! In my opinion she should definately put some clothes on. Now her performance on the other hand was one hundred times worse then how she looked. She stumbled a couple times , and was hardly moving, anyone watching that performance could notice that Britney was less than great. I saw a tentative, confused-looking girl who could barely muster the energy to mouth along with the backing track, let alone work those stilleto boots. Britney, if you're gonna lip-synch, at least be entertaining![1]
It's a possibility that the paparazzi and the media played a role in Britney's emotional breakdown. But because its britney I don't think that's the case. Her breakdown wasn't a normal breakdown, that normal everyday people would have. She did crazy, stupid things that would lead one to believe that all she really wants is a whole lot of attention. She randomly shaved her head, got two tattoo's of no meaning. This woman randomly gets in her car and drives to parking lots, she'll sit there for a couple minutes then she'll go home. She gets out of her car and screams very randomly and gets back into her car. She picks up passangers and instead of waiting for them to get into her car, she gets out and opens the door for them. Does this reallly sound like a normal thing to you? If this breakdown she had was real then it was definately rediculous how noone did anything. Everyone just stood around taking pictures of the poor woman having a mental breakdown.
Paparazzi go way too far when it comes to following celebrities around. I guess could say that they are way too aggressive. They put way too many lives in danger in so many ways.They get into high speed chases with celebrities, ignoring traffic and people around them. Somebody could seriously get hurt, or killed. Princess Diana died because of the crazy, insane, out of control paparazzi, and still it gets worse and worse, when does it stop? Not only are they putting peoples lives in great danger, they are just plane annoying. I couldn't imagine being followed day in and day out with pictures being taken right in my face. Being a celebrity obviously the pictures and paparazzi come with it, but it seems that these days celebrities can't have a successful normal life. Recently Kanye West was charged for breaking paparazzi camera's in a Los Angeles Air Port
I am not completely sure if Kanye had a reason for smashing the cameras with his body guard but it happens eventually the celebrities are going to get annoyed and vent. Maybe venting is smashing the camera of a paparazzi, maybe screaming at the top of your lungs, or maybe investing in a stress ball. I don't really blame the annoyed celebrities at all. Something needs to be done about the tactics of the paparazzi.
