True, but only if we grant Britney the dignity of being a real human being as opposed to the cartoonish sex fantasy she has presented herself as to make millions.

I may be wrong, but I don't necessarily read the criticism as "Ha, look, a fat girl," but that she's conning the public by showing up (relatively) out of shape. If Britney were an athlete, which, in a way, she is, and she behaved badly, many people would come to her defense saying that her personal life is her own business and all that matters is if she shows up in shape and makes plays. Even the beloved Muhammad Ali caught sh** for showing up out of shape and coasting to decisions he did not earn.
