Come Sit With Us

Would you want to be as famous as Britney?

Chess Victory, Minnie Phipps, Lydia Rodford Season 1 Episode 2

When you ask kids what they want to be when they grow up, one of the most common answers is: "Famous". Many see fame as an occupation instead of a bi-product of a career in the public eye. With the #freebritney movement recently being reignited by the New York Times documentary 'Framing Britney Spears', it got us thinking. Not just about Britney, who was a pivotal icon in  Minnie's generation, but also about the fame machine that many people find themselves thrust into. In this episode we talk about the difference between fame and success, and how the media used Britney's personal life like it was a reality tv show.
