@amberhorsburgh_: In 2007, Britney Spears shocked the world by shaving her head. Everyone thought she had lost it. While the world re-ran this story, we’d missed that she’d created one of the most influential pop albums of our time—Blackout. I became obsessed with this story after reading her memoir, ‘The Girl in Me’ (hard recommend). This video dives deep into how she transformed her struggles into groundbreaking art while we, as a culture, fixated on her downfall. A pattern we still see with female creatives across all industries in 2024. 📹This is an 18 part video series: Why We Love To See Women Fail. ▶️Episode 1: 2007 - a recap. Episodes 5x p/ week.

If you were a teen girl when blackout came out, especially living through being a teen girl in the 2000s, it was everything.

It was so wild because people thought she was trying to distract with an album but no it was literally a fire album & the world couldn’t believe it! She showed us she wasn’t gone.. just going through

Going back and listening to Piece of Me from that album as an adult is wild. That song is like a manifesto.
