Good take on the banality of "journalism."

2Eagle - April 20, 2005 - Report this comment

Good adaptation, but I do hope you are being sarcastic!

A rolled-up newspaper to her head would be nice! 555, Stuart!

Stuart McArthur - April 20, 2005 - Report this comment

but I don't think there's anything up there to register the pain, Rod - thanks :)

Ironic, since Britney doesn't read newspapers, or anything else. Neither does Dubya, and he's proud of it.

Stuart McArthur - April 21, 2005 - Report this comment

so Dubya misses out on Britney's baby, Michael?....hmm, maybe he's gone so far stupid, he's gone all the way around to smart again

Kristof Robertson - April 21, 2005 - Report this comment

As the real father of Britney's baby, I object to this parody. 555

Stuart McArthur - April 21, 2005 - Report this comment

......(sniff)......are you sure it was you, Kristof???

(...but how could she lie to my face like that?)

Thanks for making up for Kevin Spacey missing this song out of his 'Beyond The Sea' movie on Darin!

Stuart McArthur - April 21, 2005 - Report this comment

thanks pickle - I didn't know about that movie, but glad I could help :)

No, you don't understand, Stuart: Dubya doesn't read newspapers (or much else), but he watches TV. That's how he finds out about Britney. When 9/11 happened, giving him the chance to make millions of people forget what a lousy "president" he was, he decided he'd had the Best Week Ever! (I don't know if you get VH1 down there, but our American readers will get the joke.)

(ABC) Still as funny and pointed as a conehead.

Adagio - July 02, 2005 - Report this comment

(ABC05)Good, also semi-sweet. 5's

Stuart McArthur - July 02, 2005 - Report this comment

thanks Leo

thanks Adagio - but to use the word "sweet" in any form about this parody is to misunderstand my bitter intentions ;-)

Adagio - July 03, 2005 - Report this comment

No, no, no, Stu, I did not misunderstand your message. I called it semi-sweet, because the OS itself lent a gentleness which you wouldn't want. (I'm always affected by the OS itself).

ABC - If i had a newspaper, it would endorse this parody

Phil Alexander - July 06, 2005 - Report this comment

I've done the occasional satire on the press and tabloid "journalism", so I can really appreciate this one :-)

Agrimorfee - July 06, 2005 - Report this comment

(ABC05) DKTOS, but was amusing.

Red Ant - July 06, 2005 - Report this comment

(I-05) I'm seldom at a loss for words on a parody but everyone has taken all the Britney puns I could think of. Let's just hope Britney isn't "Makin' babies all the time".

Rich Kapalin - July 06, 2005 - Report this comment

(ABC) Any song that says "The public has had enough of Dubya and Cheney" HAS to get all 5's!

Arwen - July 06, 2005 - Report this comment

ABC--I don't give a damn about Britney or her baby...but I'm not ashamed to admit that I buy the celebrity gossip magazines like they're going out of style...so, I suppose that if I were a newspaper, I would do the same thing...

Mikey Squirrel - July 07, 2005 - Report this comment

(ABC) I wonder if it's better to be a newspaper with Britney crap all over it, or a newspaper at the bottom of a cage with bird crap all over it... eh, either way... Tri-Fives.

What's black and white and red all over? Britney's baby upon realising it's father is Eminem! Amusing work, Stu. I've just started "Born: Now Change My Nappy" to the old Britney song "Born To Make You Happy"... 'old' being from 1999.

I'm still annoyed at Federline for claiming parenthood on little Trailertrash Jr.....but this is still way cool!

(I) Missed this when it came out....your usual stellar work, even though I resent you google-ing...or ogle-ing...my future ex-wife. I'll let it slide this time :-)

future ex-wife - LOL!!

(ABC-I) Awesome spoof, Stu. However, if I had to choose between an article about Cheney and Dubya and an article about Britney, I would just flip to the comics. I don't hold either of them in high regard.
