The new Britney Spears album, "Blackout" came out today, to little fanfare and less praise.
For months her public meltdowns have entertained, and her portly frame lumbered through awards show performance and poorly conceived video. The songs have received far less airplay than expected, and now even the package itself is taking flack - pictures from the CDs liner notes showing Britney in sexual poses with a "priest".

Yawn.The New York Daily News said the saucy snapshots are a "bottom of the barrel" stunt from a girl who really could use some quality time spent repenting sins in a wooden cubicle. Nice. But the best came strangely enough from the religious right.
"This is all the puzzle pieces coming together. This girl is crashing," said Bill Donohue, president of the New York-based Catholic League. "She's not even allowed to bring up her own kids because she's not responsible enough. Now we see she can't even entertain."
Harsh...and spot on.
