Celebrity Spot

"I think that one just needs to keep pushing. Things are offensive because sometimes they infringe on other people's liberties but sometimes things are offensive because it catches people off-guard like a surprise and they feel like you didn't give them the time to pick a reaction template that they can perform as a response.
I like the idea that it is the artist's job to prepare people for these types of assaults. I like the idea better that it is artists that instigate these assaults. It is a very contemporary notion if you think about it. Contemporary in the sense that National Security is supposed to be protecting us from the same conflict that they have created-- or the idea that the World Trade Center was a US Government Operation. Its very "conspiracy theorist" which I think people also have a hard time reacting to so they just brush it off." --Britney Spears
