This quote is from a WENN wire piece and I can’t find the source for it at all, but supposedly musician Moby said that he loves Britney Spears, and that the fatter and weirder she gets the more he finds himself oddly drawn to her.
Dance star MOBY is harbouring an unlikely celebrity crush in the shape of troubled star BRITNEY SPEARS.
Moby admits he would wed the Toxic singer “in a heartbeat”, as he has fallen for her “weird” charms.
He says, “She’s like this (U.S. playwright) Tennessee Williams tragic figure.
“The fatter she gets, the weirder she gets, the more I love her. I found her moderately appealing in the late ’90s, but now I would marry her in a heartbeat.”

I searched Moby’s blog to see if he wrote this there or if I could find contact information to confirm this quote from him, and there wasn’t any way to e-mail him so I kind of gave up. I’m not about to comment on an unrelated post asking him if he said this, that would make me feel like a tool.
While there isn’t a post about this on his blog, Moby has referenced Tennessee Williams twice though, and I would bet he said this about Britney at some point. She is kind of oddly fascinating, although she’s losing her audience as she gets more normal. Buzzfoto has a photo of her yesterday taken by a freelancer and they note that only three paparazzi were trailing her that day. Maybe she was being especially elusive.
Moby has been DJing and keeping busy in and around NY city, where he’s lived for 10 years in the same apartment in Little Italy. He will have his first and he says his only gig this year at Maxwells in NJ on April 10th for MusicSnobbery.com’s third anniversary. Unfortunately the $8 tickets are completely sold out.
As for why Moby would have an inexplicable attraction to Britney Spears, he has a love of beer and regularly talks about it on his blog. I didn’t think he was into chicks, but he said in a 1999 interview “I’m neither straight nor gay, I’m pretty much bisexual.” And beer-goggle susceptible like most men.
Britney is shown in the header in early March of this year, thanks to Splash. Moby is shown in March, 2006, thanks to PRPhotos.
Aww.. Moby has a cute face… He just has a nice smile…. awww..
I know! He just seems so cuddly.
Ifn this quote be real, I wonder what he means by “wierd”. Cause, at least in my book, wierd is cool but endangering the lives of 2 little boys & countless other people on the road isn’t
There are only very, very few occasions on which you wish you were Britney Spears. As in “being Britney Spears”, I mean. Not as in “having Britney’s bank accounts”.
This is definitely one of them (the only one?). Having Moby wanting to marry you in a heartbeat seems like one of those lovely dreams.
Awww….bless his Moby heart
The man is adorable. Britney is now a bit enviable.. momentarily.
That is soooooo nice.
I hope he does and she decides to go vegan! Then maybe I could love her, too.
I wouldn’t consider her fat. She may have put on a few pounds, and it looks much worse with her choice of clothing. If anything, she’s a little chunky, but not fat.
wow, moby’s looking healthy. in old photos he looked as white as his name-sake whale. and he’s got a sparkle in his eyes. as to the britney thing, he probably takes home wounded stray dogs too, just spreadin’ the love around.
HE WOULD LOOK AFTER HER SO WELL – WHAT A LOVELY COUPLE THEY WOULD BE.
Alright, more idiotic statements from people I don’t care about involving situations they aren’t a part of. God bless the USA.
So brit lost her target audience for being a trainwreck. Now she’s losing her creepy “watch car accidents” audience for being normal. Poor girl can’t get a break.
She should marry moby. He WOULD take such good care of her. I have warm fuzzies now.
Just another example of someone using her name to get some free publicity.
