Filed under: Britney Spears, Britney Spears Art, If Artist X painted Celebrity X
Some of Roy Lichtenstein’s best known paintings are those inspired by comic book panels. Many of the female subjects Lichtenstein portrayed appeared to be in distress, so I wondered how he might paint Britney Spears. Poor Brits, bloggers and tabloids are having a field day pointing out the fact her tummy is protruding…could she be pregnant again? Britney’s drama never ceases, just yesterday she stepped on a hypodermic needle while walking around barefoot and had to be rushed to the hospital. Add that to the stress of being married to a no talent Neanderthal who is draining her bank account with his incessant spending and partying…. and you just KNOW Britney is in distress. Medium: Acrylic on paper, digital color.

I know. Sometimes I wonder what is she thinking? I feel like she lives in this world that no one understands with people around her kissing her ass and telling her that things are ok. It’s sometimes the tabloids that keep her on her toes.

LOL that’s classic and true. Poor thing, she’s so broke now that she’s practicing being homeless by refusing to wear shoes and getting comfortable with the idea of needles.

You rule, 14! You know how to capture Britney’s angst.
While I realize she’s still a very young woman. I don’t get why she’s still screwing things up for herself. If she’s really having a another baby. She’s in for some sad times with that no good layabout she’s married to. She is a very deluded person. I’m sure she really thinks another baby will change the bum she’s with, and this baby will keep them together. Yuck! I hope she wakes up soon.

I think its time someone told Britney Honey dumplings the truth “girl he’s just not that into you” (que Oprah applause)

I think they have a business arrangement. He is pretending to be her husband. She is paying him to pose as such and is paying him for his man gravy, so she can breed. She gets tabloid attention and he tries to become a gangsta rappa. I think it is a bunch of bullshit. What do I know?

OMG! Your cartoon of TC is fantabulous!
The Lichtenstein is also quite awesome. Poor Britney my ass. The only thing poor about it is that McK-Fed keeps spreading his demon-seed all other the place.
Ew.

There are potentially 4 Federline offspring that will start reproducing in about 15 years! That’s scary.

I’m still reeling from the “no talent” link to hubby Kevin Federline’s PopoZao rap. Geez, you need a warning on that link or something. I could be scarred for life!
You’ve captured her utter cluelessness (and spreading neckline) perfectly. Demon seed indeed, lol!

This response is way off topic, but I had to say it, after visiting the go fug yourself website, I NEED to see you do Courtney Love NOW. Thanks!

Midevil….you must have a hidden camera installed in my studio!!
I’ve got Courtney Love sitting here waiting to be finished and I’ll get her posted as soon as I can. Aside from Star Jones, Courtney is one of my faves to paint. Ms. Love will appear as soon as I get finished with a hefty illustration project I’m doing for a magazine.
Thanks for your comments darlin’
love,

ps. Andy, you’re so right, “ya’ll” would have been the icing on the cake.

Thanks for the tip Moonmaid, you are soooooooo right! I highly recommend EVERYONE to click on the link “no talent”, don’t turn your volume up too loud if you’re at work, or everyone will wonder why you’ve just spewed coffee out of your nose from laughing so hard.
If I’m not mistaken PopoZao, translated roughly, is Zulu for “ass-clown”

After seeing Star Jones’s revolting kiss, I had to take a bit of a break from your blog. But I’m back now, and I can see that you’re genius is in full swing!
Have you seen the new issue of Elle with Ashley Simpson on the cover? That ding-dong/doe-eyed expression you see is in every photo of her spread. Looks parody-worthy to moi!

Work rips me away from The Gallery of the Absurd for a couple of weeks, and it’s like Christmas to log back in…
Hardgrave’s terrific caricature, Devil Jessica, Polage’s rubbery mug, and this. Oh, Christ, this.
Taking the square peg that is the lumpen, neckless Britney and wedging her carcass into the round hole of Lichtenstein’s stylized world is bravura spoofery.
And Crusader Cruise is a great secret toy surprise, dude. You may have been using someone else’s template, but it’s pure 14 snark in execution. Yummy!
