Being well documented doesn't make her famous... I consider someone like Tom Hanks "famous"... Spears is not only the complete opposite, but simply an idiot.. (an ugly one at that in my opnion).
Famous implies someone who is celebrated
and widely known based on their positive accomplishments.. someone who is respected (esteemed)
Spears is
"infamous" which implies she is well known for an exceedingly bad reputation (ill-famed)
(fame implies that one is widely honored... i doubt Spears is anything close to that.. LOL)
