Gwyneth Paltrow: 'Paparazzi drove Britney Spears insane'

Gwyneth Paltrow has accused Adnan Ghalib and the paparazzi of pushing Britney Spears over the edge.

She said the media frenzy surrounding Spears and her relationship with the Birmingham-born snapper had caused her to go "insane".

Paltrow, whose own marriage to Chris Martin has been scrutinised in the press, said: "Look at what they've done to Britney. The paparazzi and magazines have blood on their hands. They literally made her go insane.

"She's got classic Stockholm Syndrome - she fell in love with a paparazzo and went insane. The photographers and editors of these magazines have such bad karma. It's pretty dark."

Paltrow's mum Blythe Danner recently spoke out to quash rumours that her daughter's relationship is on the rocks.

Well, I have to agree with her!

[NicoleWasHere]

Oh shit, really, Gwyneth? >.>

[TaffyMoon]

Yeah, I have to admit, Gwyneth nailed it.

[Sasha]

No, fame itself drove her insane. She was neither educated enough nor properly parented enough to deal with it.

[Bellatheball]

Right, so once again we're back to saying she has no responsibilty in this? The paps made her neglect and lose her children. The paps strained her relationship with her family. And the paps made her flash her bits and forget her bra.

"she fell in love with a pap and then went insane"

um no i dont think it really happned that way

[Just Kill Me]

There was something wrong with Britney a long time before there was constant documentation that she was a nutcase.

[cmmdee]

^^ ITA.

And we all got to see the meltdown.
Curious how she has been so quiet lately... I don't want to speak too soon though. It's nice not having to see her Cheetos runs documented at the gas station every five seconds...

[Laxmobster]

I blame the Cheetohs!

They're sooooooo good, but so damn bad for you...

Agreed. It's too easy to blame someone else all the time.

She didn't have to go out, at all hours and face the paps. Nobody forced her. She chose to be bothered by them because she loved it. She's a raging, self-absorbed narcissist. She might have done a little better had she not been in showbiz but I think she'd still be a selfish twat living at the trailer park as well.

[Trixiebelle]

Oh puleeeze. She went insane long before she started courting the paps and dating one. Not to mention she was running all over town 24/7 doing crazy shit and practically begging to be photographed. Or that she and/or her right hand man Lutfi made sure the paps knew her every move.

Get your story straight or STFU, Gwenyth.

[MissVenus]

I don't think the paps made her go insane.

Let's face it, she was a young girl of limited intelligence, she got too much fame and money at a young age, she has never been told "no", she lives in a 'fantasy world' in which she has delusions of granduer.

The paps didn't make her go out and party and leave her children to be taken from her, the paps didn't make her flash her cooter for the world to see, the paps didn't make her drive around aimlessly all night... Britney was on a collision course with insanity and the paps just happened to be there to catch it all on film for our enjoyment.

Everytime this woman spews shit out of her mouth, I get a headache. Paparazzi did not drive Britney Spears insane. And calling Britney insane was quite rude, especially since Gwyneth was talking about her just to bring some attention on herself.
