    If you can't trust crazydaysandnights.com, whom can you trust?

    Justin Timberlake is a career killer. Has he been with anyone who had a better career after they hooked up?

    Cameron Diaz, while I'm not a fan of her work, is doing pretty well.

    I actually feel sorry for Britney. Don't care about the rest of these morons, but her "comeback" has appeared nothing but creepy and weirdly controlled. I would like to see her succeed later in life. Somehow.

    She's too big a corporation now to fail. Its like she's lost interest and doesn't want to do it anymore

    I looked it up - she hasn't been on-screen (Shrek excluded) from a film that grossed $100 mill since 2003 (Charlie's Angels - Full Throttle $100.8). She was in five before that. And you know that it isn't like ticket prices are going down.

    Brit just performed before a live audience on Kimmel...catatonic is the best description of her presence...lip syncing while walking slowly and deliberately across the stage, careful not to be knocked over by the actual dancers...there was no attempt to demonstrate rhythm...although she did raise her arms a few times.

    My question is this: Was she ever a good dancer?

    Apparently Enrique Inglesias saw the performances. He's now backed off her tour.

    Not really, but she was more athletic in her late teens and early 20s. Her knees are probably shot to shit at this point.

    Whether its been her parents, management teams or her, uh, posse, I get the impression she hasn't made a decision for herself since middle school, if that recently. No wonder she looks out of her element when outside of the world of performing. That and making kids are about the only things she seems to know how to do.

    I saw her on Kimmel as well. She seemed disinterested in the performance. She didn't seem to be on anything. She was in two mildly funny skits, which I'm a little surprised she agreed to.

    She just seems burned out and when you've been performing since you were a pre-teen, that's not shocking.

    Yes, thats about the only thing she was ever good at.
