Elevating the Discourse

Britney Spears finally fires back:

A month after Maryland’s first lady apologized for saying she would shoot Britney Spears if she had the chance, a frosty response from the pop icon appears in a magazine to be distributed Friday.
“She probably needs to get laid,” Entertainment Weekly quotes Spears saying of Kendel Ehrlich, the wife of Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.

In a related item, Spears reveals how she keeps her cool:

In case anyone remains in the dark, she [Spears] reveals in the upcoming issue of People that the song [“Touch of My Hand”] is an ode to, er, masturbation.
“I think if you say you don’t do it, you’re lying,” she says. “I think it’s a positive thing to indulge in yourself in a sexual way sometimes. I don’t do it all the time. It’s life. Guys can talk about it. Why can’t girls? It’s a positive thing.”
Waxing philosophical (or waxing something), Spears goes on:
“I think it’s positive for girls not to depend on guys. Being alone – I’m one to say! – you really start to figure out what makes you happy. And then you’re able to give more to other people … When you turn yourself on, that really is what turns the guy on. So just make yourself happy and let them just kind of follow up after you.”

There you have it.
