Hilary Duff: Britney Spears Breakdown Was Inevitable
Pop star Hilary Duff insists it was inevitable Britney Spears would have a breakdown. The 19-year-old singer believes the Toxic star's admittance to the Promises clinic in Malibu, California earlier this year (07) was due to the unrelenting pressure she has faced since a young age.
She says, "I feel for her. I've met her a few times and she's very sweet, hard-working and talented.
"Being Britney Spears must be difficult. She's been told what to do since she was young. She's not a bad mum - she's a first-time mum, and because she's famous, she's expected never to make mistakes. The pressure she's under would get to anyone. People need to leave her alone."
But Duff is adamant she won't suffer the same fate: "I'm not going to stop doing what I love because I'm afraid of breaking down. But I've seen how easily it happens.
"My sister, Haylie, and I used to live in this apartment complex with lots of young Hollywood stars. I watched lots of famous people earning too much and getting into trouble. I saw people lose everything. Thankfully, I haven't fallen into that trap."
