    I don't dispute her talent or the quality of her voice at all. The first time I heard her - I said "that girl's got soul" and imagined a woman looking not unlike Aretha Franklin, but then I saw a picture of her and I was blown away that that voice came from that little person. Obviously the fans and the industry think she has something special too - considering the awards she's won.

    So don't get me wrong, I do like her and think she's talented, but the trainwreck that her life has become is so insanely addictive that you can't look away. And the thing that really gets me about it is she had people - her family - who are telling her, you're in a downward spiral, you need to do something, you need help, and she just doesn't listen. Having never been in that situation, I'm not one to judge, but I will continue to watch in absolute fascination wondering what happens next.

    Seriously this makes Brittney Spears look like a girlscout.

    And she used to be really really good looking:
