She does show some signs of being on the spectrum. She was musically gifted from a very early age. She was a loner as a kid. As a teen she made a few friends but was especially close with them. She has been accused of being immature and not wanting to grow up. It would explain her many boyfriends. Even though she gets along well with people, having Asperger's could be the reason she has trouble connecting and forming relationships with the men she dates.

I highly doubt it. Being a country/pop star just doesn't seem like an aspie thing for me.

If she does, she'd just shake it off.

I really detest speculation like this about anyone, dead or alive, famous or not famous.

Everyone has Asperger's.

Now stop making these threads.

I second that.

It reminds me of nothing more than some old biddies gossiping about someone else.

None of those things are symptoms of autism.

It's equally as likely, or unlikely, that she has Borderline Personality Disorder. Speculating about either, without more information and a professional evaluation, is just that: speculation.

So because someone is well known means they can't have Aspergers?

Hmm...rethinks my own career as a well known ASPIE Writer*
