Predict Britney Spears' death to win a PS3? Also, leave your dignity at the door photo

You know you can always rely on the internet for all variations of tastelessness, and in this case it doesn't disappoint. When is Britney going to Die basically gives you the option to guess what day Britney Spears will die. The site promises if you get it right that you will win a PS3. It's inevitable that multiple people will guess the date when it comes, so I hope the creators have thought of this in advance and stockpiled PS3s for the occasion.

My initial reaction to this website's existence was to ridicule Britney Spears as a crass whore and giggle over the fact that someone had come up with the site idea in the first place. When I actually looked at the site itself, it pretty much shut me up quick-- it's hard to laugh at the pathetic-bordering-on-painful photos there. However, if if other people's suffering is hilarious to you, this will definitely float your boat.

Also -- If she does die and the correct guesses actually earn the contestants PS3s, I'll expect hell to freeze over concurrently.

You can also guess when Amy Winehouse will croak and snatch a free iPod.

Easier odds make for a less expensive prize, I suppose.

I would have thought that her death would be prize enough. Some people are just greedy, I guess.

Die? probably not for a while. Broke and selling her body to eat? give it a year.

Colette, why must we leave our dignity at the door, Miss Spears lost hers when she went bat shit insane, the pic proves it and shes a cheap fat whore. calling dibs on when she dies i think is keeping the dignity of the entire human race, and cherrs for the link, ive favorited it and already placed a date. lets hope she dies tomorrow, it could HAPPEN, ya never know

The best thing that could happen is that Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, and Britney Spears all die in a fiery wreck. I don't usually wish death on people but shit they are lowering the U.S.'s collective IQ daily along with reality television and Bill O'Reilly.

@Mushman: No thanks, I don't think I want any after googling it. It seems that if you don't have it to begin with, nobody complains. But if you have it and then lose it, people bitch about it.

Chris Crocker blames us and the media, well I guess partially the media is to blame, but really, Chris Crocker should make a video screaming for Britney to help herself. She's her own worst enemy. He makes her out to be a victim, but she made her own bed, now she's laying in it. Look at Natalie Portman, Hayden Panettiere or Jodie Foster the best example. These women are famous and have managed to lead god lives. Chris blame Britney. That's the real enemy.

it seems the link takes me somewhere other than the actual site? I was ready to enter! I must admit, if I had the chance to impregnate her I would take it.

I have my reasons.

Man, I must be a bad person, because I checked out the site, and clearly it's a bunch of phishing for email addresses for spam and was a little disappointed.

There's no rules or disclaimers, something any contest worth its salt always have.

I really don't want to see her die as much as I hate her, she should just stop. Stop trying to be a fallen star and raise her two kids outside the spotlight before they grow up make Michael Jackson look like, um I don't know... Chelsea Clinton?

But if I had to pick a day when it ends, I'm going with first day of Summer '08.

If the subject were anyone else the creator would be canned for libel. Remember those Death Note fiascoes?

This contest is sweet, unfortunately the time that it takes for the 'potential' of the PS3 to come to fruition is probably going to be around when she dies...Im gonna go put down for sometime in about 5 years.

The world would be a better place if she just faded away. Personally, I think she is borderline retarded, or bipolar. I hope that is the case anyway, because if its not, holy shit the antichrist is here. There have been plenty of other young stars that don't act this way, call it crappy upbringing, call it stupidity, the blame falls squarely on her. She has no clue what she is doing, she needs help, but will not get it, either from no one wanting to help this basket case or she won't like it and quit, I'm guessing the latter.

You pretty much summed it up with that last sentence Colette. The site is purely for publicity/drawing traffic and the creators are banking on the fact that Britney will at least live long enough so everyone will forget all about the contest.

I apologize for being so shallow, but I really miss Hot Britney. Why can't pop stars just keep making crappy music and dressing scantily? Why do they have to get so fucked up?

This is one case -- perhaps, the only case -- where Britney could've actually learned something from Justin Timberlake. He's a pretty, arrogant, slutty twat, but you know what? He's not fucked up.

Britney -- I miss you, you lovely slut. Come back to us.

Is there an end to tastelessness ? Just to get hits or something ? I mean, the milliondollarpage.com was quite epic. But this is sick and disgusting.

EDIT: Did I mention the generic erotica ads in the bottom ? Someone's gonna make a fortune when enough people make a bandwagon out of it.
