What should I do, my sister is addicted..?

Question

My sister is, like addicted to Britney Spears! She is only 11, but she goes to sites like x17 to find the latest information about Britney. She knows all about her, even the custody battles and stuff. And I also caught her watching music videos of Britney Spears' like Gimme more and Toxic. I think its really not suitable for her. She finds gossip about Britney everyday, and has thousands of Britney Spears' songs in her ipod and phone. What should I do???? Our parents doesn't know about this.

Answer 1

Tell your mom that she's on those sites and shouldn't be.

OR...

Bug her about the sites when you see her on them.  Maybe if the experience of being on those sites is uncomfortable for her, she won't go to them as much.

Answer 2

just let her. I used to be addicted to britney spears when i was 5. I even drew a picture of her! lol! she will grow ourt of it but try to introduce her to different artists and stuff.

Answer 3

Wait, your sisters 11 and she has an ipod and a phone .................... You might want to start there

Answer 4

let her be. she is only 11! she will soon just not even care about her anymore. every kid is in love with some celebrity when they are young. and you cant stop her form listening to anything. its her right. ask her if she wants to be like brittney spears one day aslong as shes not copying what brittney does theres nothing you should even worry about. maybi she just likes to gossip and thinks its interesting to read the latest celeb news

Answer 5

Britney Spears is definetly not a good role model for any age, especially not 11. So I would go to your parents and tell them. If she was hanging out with a druggie you would tell them...that is only 1 of the things that Britney Spears promotes.

Answer 6

What's wrong with it/? She'll get over it, just as I got over Tina from S Club 7 all those years ago. I was 8 and I worshiped the ground she walked on, I was just as obsessed as your sister. So what? As I got older I realized how stupid it was and forgot about her.

Just leave her to it....it isn't doing her any harm. If she's happy, let her be.

Answer 7

you cant stop her from listening to britney spears but try introducing her to other similar artists that are popular with kids her age and encourage her to listen to other music. dont worry, this is just a phase and she will eventually grow out of it.

Answer 8

If she's only 11 I wouldn't worry about it. She'll grow out of it in a few years and be thoroughly embarassed when you remind her of it. Weren't you hooked on a celebrity when you were that age? I know I was.

Answer 9

you should sit down and speak to her.  She is putting Brittney on this pedestal, you have every right to be concerned, seems a bit overwhelming and obsessive   or it may be a phase.  Introduce her to other singers instead.  Or act as if you really like this one singer, she may move towards that direction.

Answer 10

She like who she likes...

if she likes britney let her, as she gets older her intrests will probably change anyway

Answer 11

I think its OK at 11 but i think you should just mention it to you parents.

Answer 12

She just is a Britney spears fan. Not a big deal.
