Bieber's Pulling A Britney

 I know that headline is alarming on the surface, but don't worry this has nothing to do with see-through bodysuits, snakes, or schoolgirl outfits. Justin Bieber is making major declarations about his personal life alot like Britney Spears did when she was just starting out. Bieber is claiming that he won't have kids until after he's married. Britney Spears infamously (and falsely) declared she's not having sex until she's married when the truth was she already had long before she blew up. Now nobody knows what Bieber is doing or not doing with girlfriend Selena Gomez but hopefully someone is going to talk to him about what he shouldn't be saying.
 Britney Spears was in the same situation, in a relationship with another high-powered teen idol, Justin Timberlake and made astoundingly grand claims about them marrying and living happily ever after. As we all know, it didn't end that way. It ended with "Cry Me A River" and for all intensive purposes, Bieber is painting himself in a corner much similar to Britney. Selena and the Biebs went public late last year after tons of rumors and sightings circulated. Britney and JT went public at the MTV VMAs in 2000 after the same kind of tabloid fodder eventually came to ahead. It was rumored that Britney was the one who pushed for the public announcement; similarly Justin wanted to tell everyone how crazy he was about Selena. Selena, to me reminds me a lot of Justin Timberlake back in the day. They both found themselves at the center of their respective projects, but tried to live without much fanfare while their respective romantic partners are caught up in a frenzy. Selena, also like JT values her privacy and tries not to talk too much about Justin unless she has to. JT, in a similar fashion would answer questions but it was obvious that wasn't what he wanted to do.
 And now with the constant quotes that Bieber is circulating he's pushing the relationship into a place that Selena isn't ready to consider just like Britney more than likely overdid the future talks with Justin. Not that it's a bad thing for young stars to talk about their future but to paint so much certainty into the situation forces their respective boyfriend/girlfriend into making heavy decisions that they are too young to face. Selena Gomez has yet to say how she sees her future and only recently has Justin Timberlake actually mentioned a future life with children.
 The point here? Never make a gland declarative statement about your relationship or personal life before you can know for sure what will happen. Britney eventually did have a marriage and children, just not with Justin. And Bieber, may end up doing the same if he doesn't quit while he's ahead. Besides, I'm sure he doesn't want to be the subject of the next breakup smash.
