In 2007, Britney Spears shocked the world by shaving her head. Everyone thought she had lost it. While the world re-ran this story, we’d missed that she’d created one of the most influential pop albums of our time—Blackout. I became obsessed with this story after reading her memoir, ‘The Girl in Me’ (hard recommend). This video dives deep into how she transformed her struggles into groundbreaking art while we, as a culture, fixated on her downfall. A pattern we still see with female creatives across all industries in 2024. 📹This is an 12 part video series: Why We Love To See Women Fail. ▶️Episode 1: 2007 - a recap. Watch it right here. x amber #britneyspears #britneyarmy #itsbritneybitch CREDITS Images: Daily News Feb. 18, 2007 US Weekly Jan. 21, 2008 OK!
