Just because you're not into her music doesn't mean she's not talented.
Her voice is absolutely generic, bordering on bad--there's nothing there worth lauding whatsoever on the singing front. She's not a songwriter, or an actual musician of any kind. Her dancing is so-so. So what "talents" does she supposedly have?
She's been packaged well by the marketing machine that made her a household name, but that name was NOT made based upon talent.

She has achieved more success doing what she does than very few can ever claim.
Lots of people can claim "success" and/or made names for themselves at things they're not actually GOOD at. I mean, look at William Shatner. An "actor" who's acting is bad. Go figure.

Even messed up as she is, the girl can still put out a funky dance song.
A song someone else wrote. Produced by someone else to make her mediocre voice somewhat palatable via studio magic. In a video choreographed and directed by someone else to cash in on her looks. Like I said, she's been packaged well, but it has nothing to do with talent.

A monkey might be really good at grinding an organ, but it's still a monkey grinding an organ. A cute novelty with no substance.

but she's not healthy.
And whose fault is that? Am I supposed to feel sorry for someone who has had the world handed to her on a platter because she's taken her fame and fortune and made an utter botch of things? Because she's allowed her children to become freaks in a media circus? Because she's put partying and substance abuse and making a spectacle of herself ahead of her obligations as a mother? Because she doesn't even appear interested in trying to be a mother to the children she brought into the world?
Ain't gonna happen.

Sorry, holier-than-thou is your schtick, isn't it? Didn't mean to step on any toes.

What's happening to her isn't a rational choice.
I'm sure those little boys are very comforted by that knowledge, too.

There's nothing to be gained by maligning her. There but for the grace of God/Bob, kid.
As the child of a deeply non-functional alcoholic, who suffered physical, emotional, and sexual abuse as a result of her mother's neglect, I'd say I have plenty of reason to feel loathing toward someone like the ***** in question. I have NO sympathy for people like her--NONE. People with substance abuse and/or mental illness issues can get healthy again, if they try. 2 weeks in rehab after a wild and wacky bender does not equal "trying." She's f'ucking around with this stunt or that stunt instead of focusing on getting better for her children's sake. I'm not gonna waste my tears. I'm just going to hope she dies soon so we can stop hearing about her and maybe, just maybe, her children can have a shot at normalcy.

Anyone can have a chemical imbalance and find that their brain has pwnd them and ruined their life.
You're assuming she has a chemical imbalance and isn't just f'ucking up as a result of drugs or alcohol or simply a terminal case of having her priorities desperately out of whack. I'm not that generous. As far as I'm concerned, she's just a *****-up, and I reiterate--the sooner she cashes in her chips and takes the dirt-nap, the better a place the world will be.
