“It’s one thing to listen to a woman tell an invited film crew, “I’m a private person,” three quarters of the way into a supposed 60-day expose on her life; it’s another far more excruciating affair to listen to someone bemoan the presence of cameras in her life…to a camera.”

So many questions remain after seeing it. If I were that stiff British interviewer, I would have asked:

• Were you on drugs and what were they?
• Hey, how ’bout those schizophrenia rumors?
• Remember when you were speaking in a British accent? What was up with that?
• Parazzi-baiting (per Rolling Stone, Blender and The Atlantic): hobby or chore?
• No really, what drugs were you on when you collapsed at PURE?
• Was rehab as fun as it looks like on TV?
• What did you make of Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy and were you relieved to be the lesser Spears train wreck for a while?
• For the love of forward-thinking pop, why the f’ck did you squander that Timbaland and Justin Timberlake collaboration?
• Dog poop on dresses: fad or here to stay?
• It’s 60 minutes into your documentary: do you know where your mother is?
• You are aware that you don’t get to write your own obituary, right?
• How long do you honestly think you can keep this up?
