The greatest and most influential female artist since Marilyn Monroe

Say what you will about Britney - - pro or con - - but she's the greatest and most influential female artist since Marilyn Monroe. They said Marilyn couldn't sing or dance or act or anything, but here it is, over 50 years later and you can't go anywhere without seeing an image of her. They say the same things about Britney, but all her tours sell out, all her recordings ship at number one, and she's only one of two females to hold down a Las Vegas residency (yeah, just like you-know-who with the big, big voice!) Britney's genius is intrinsic to her time and place and has nothing to do with classical criteria for judgement. She stands alone at the top, just like Marilyn did. A Marilyn or a Britney only comes along once in a blue moon. I hope you all caught her in her prime, there's never been a better all-around female entertainer. I'm really thankful that I caught the whole show from the beginning. And it's still not finished.
