Mooge Posted October 30, 2013 Navy ships are using Britney Spears to scare off Somali pirates. Captains are playing the popstar's hits at full volume to deter 'western culture-hating' pirates and stop them boarding the ships, merchant navy officer Rachel Owens revealed to the Metro. Classic hits Baby One More Time and Oops! I Did It Again are being used and have proved effective at stopping kidnap attempts from bandits. Second Officer Owens, who works on supertankers off the east coast of Africa, said: ‘Her songs were chosen by the security team because they thought the pirates would hate them most. ‘These guys can’t stand Western culture or music, making Britney’s hits perfect.’ Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2478838/Britney-Spears-songs-used-scare-Western-culture-hating-pirates-Somalia.html Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alpha Blondy Posted October 30, 2013 pirates are actually more corrupt than Britany. you'd think they'll compliment each other........but Mooge doesn't seem to agree, somaha? ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoctorKenney Posted October 30, 2013 I'm not sure if this is actually real news, or it's satire... How dumb are these Navy Captains? Wouldn't it be a good idea to at least know your enemy? This isn't even a cultural battle, the pirates aren't the religious type. They're just men who want money, I wouldn't be surprised if these pirates regularly listened to american rap music anyway.
