Britney Spears. - She's crazy, does that make her music bad?, Same could go for any crazy music artist. Options

Personally, I think Britney Spears' music is entertaining and as a dancer, it's easy to dance to. But every time I buy a CD of hers or mention her name, I get mean looks. I know, she's insane and all, but can't her music still be good? Just because I'm buying a CD of hers, does that mean I'm supporting her? I just want the music.

We all know Michael Jackson lost too many marbles. ...but who doesn't like Thriller?

Janice Joplin and Bob Marley and Kurt Cobain were heavy drug users and chose some interesting things to do and be a part of in their lives, but their music is still held in high regard.

Granted, Britney doesn't make her own music, so it doesn't reflect what's going on in her mind, even if it does reflect her lifestyle. There's so many bands out there that write lyrics that are drug related.

edit: Talking about Amy Winehouse, people do have a when they say that they are taking away awards from sports players due to performance enhancing drugs, but singers who are on crack (performance enhancing drug!) keep their platium statuses and awards.

Exactly. Thank you.
