Who is genius. The Beanie baby? Or the people who made beanie babies?
The beanie babies, of course.
But it's her talent, dancing ability and voice that they work with - without it they'd have nothing.

I agree with you, but also disagree with you. These singers don't have it easy. They work damn hard, long hours doing very physical exhausting work for shows and videos.
And Britney gives back, every summer she sends about 100 poor kids to a singing/acting/dancing camp that she pays for completely. These kids get trained by *her* voice coaches, by *her* choreographers, by *her* drama instructors and at the end of the camp she comes to see them and they put on a show for her. It's fantastic for the kids, really gives them an edge and puts them in front of top-of-the-line talent scouts... and she pays for all of it out of her own money.

She might be a 'product' and she might be changing her 'sweet girl' image to one that's more mature, but unlike J-Lo, Britney really does remember where she came from and she gives back.
