Shameless Britney and Pink  Have you noticed how Britney Spears
keeps sinking lower into the barrel of sexual shock tactics? Is
this evidence of "maturation"...or just record-label cold
sweats?  After all, Britney's first two albums sold 22 million

That's still a massive number, but also a massive decline. All
three singles from that CD failed to crack the Top 20. What to
do about the drop? Ramp up the smut factor for the next one.  On
November 18, the fourth Britney Spears album, "In The Zone," hit
stores, but not before a massive marketing blitz, including an
ABC News celebrity interview with Diane Sawyer, and a one-hour
Monday night ABC special promising "the sensual seductress, the
enchanting mystery." Truth is, there's nothing mysterious with
