Britney Spears keeps turning up in everything from courts to internet marketing sales letters these days! What do you think? Are you Britney weary yet?

I just got an email/sales letter from a marketer wondering if Britney Spears was smarter than I was, because she gets to celebrate all the time without having to do any work.

The article was really about leverage even though I “got” that the intended spin was to tie the topic to a celebrity.

After an “in your face” comment comparing and questioning the level of intelligence of the reader, the marketer immediately went into a sales spiel for the latest and greatest item on the market.

Over the past few months I’ve gotten several of these type emails, some of them daring to ask, “_____, Are You Freakin’ Stupid?!” Now, maybe it’s just me, and I’m easily annoyed today, but I’m getting really tired of this.

Share your thoughts. Are you getting hammered by this type of “marketing” too?
