The latest issue of Rolling Stone has Britney Spears on the cover for their story "Inside An American Tragedy," which looks at the circus her life has become and delves into some of the events in her life that have shaped the media's perception of her, one of which was the decision (made by her mom) to have breast implant surgery at such a young age.

According to a source, she and Lynne had made the decision for her to get them, on the assumption that the culture demanded it, but the press leapt on her scornfully. "She regretted the implants, particularly because her chest was still growing. And when her natural breasts became larger, she had the implants removed." Friend Darrin Henson told the magazine: "When other girls did their boobs, they were like, 'Yeah I did my boobs, move on' but Britney was brought up to lie about herself." He added: "The girl doesn't know who she is." Spears, 26, has always denied she was surgically enhanced.

Of all the things Britney should regret, I'd put breast enhancement surgery pretty low on the totem pole. I would probably start with being born into this gravy training family first followed by losing Justin Timberlake and not wearing underwear.
