What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Hey there, everybody. It is Friday, March 6th. You've probably seen the headlines by now. Britney Spears has been arrested for suspicion of DUI. With that, we want to welcome you to this episode of Amy and TJ that, frankly, we were reluctant to to do for a number of reasons but rogue she's a big star this is a big deal but man it it sucks because yes you can argue she brought on herself but this is going to be another round of headlines and everybody talking about her what she should do and so on and so forth Yes. I think, look, we hesitated because we don't want to pile on. This is clearly a woman who is celebrated and loved. Hell, I listen to her music all the time, especially when I'm running.
She has been a part of our lives for as long as most of us can remember.
What led to Britney Spears' recent arrest for DUI?
And we have watched her decline, spiral, have problems. And I feel like most people are rooting for her. We want the best for her. We want her to to make more music, to feel her own strength and her own power. She's been through so much. And to me, the one thing that really stood out that could be a positive note in all of these negative headlines she has suffered through for the past two decades, I loved this line. We'll read her full statement, but I loved this line. Hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life. And I do feel like from what I've seen online, she has a huge fan base that is hoping for the best and rooting her on. But this is a tough, tough situation.
And thankfully, no one got hurt. Again, if you haven't gone beyond the headlines, we will tell you what happened. This is reportedly on Wednesday evening out in Los Angeles in Southern California. Of course, not too far from where she has a home in Thousand Oaks. It's out there. People are aware of this, but the report was of. a black BMW driving erratically and at high speeds. Police were able to catch up with his vehicle. She did pull over. She was given a field sobriety test that apparently the officer thought she failed. She was taken to jail. She was booked at 3 a.m. She was out by 6 a.m. But that is the story. We have not heard directly from her. Short of, at least we see a move she has made, and I don't keep up with it, Rogues, but a lot of people are familiar with her Instagram account.
Yes, I am among her millions and millions of followers. But yes, she has deactivated her Instagram account. She did that on Thursday. And look, I think that's also a positive sign. A lot of people have only been keeping tabs on Britney Spears over these past few years since that conservatorship was removed by a judge in 2021, so for the past five years or so. We have been watching her basically through her Instagram feed. And frankly, a lot of what we see on that Instagram feed has been concerning, deeply concerning, not just in the videos she's posted, but even in some of the captions where she's gone after family members and friends and had kind of a stream of consciousness type of caption. She's gone through a messy divorce online.
So we've only really been able to gauge how she's doing based on her Instagram account. And frankly, it's been tough to watch at times. But then I have other people coming to me and say, oh my goodness, you've got to follow Britney. And I think Robes, and again, I want to say she's an adult and she's responsible for her actions. She's a mother, all right, to two boys. But Robes, so many people have over the years pointed to you should check it out. Not because it's entertaining, not because it's fun, but because they think it's so disturbing that you'll be entertained by how ridiculous it is. It's almost making fun of her, is how I have been told to follow her. It's not described as, like it's our...
We are watching this play out, and I think a lot of folks have used it as their entertainment over the years. I'm not suggesting you, but you know what I'm saying. Everybody who has suggested I follow her, we're not doing it for a positive reason.
