Actually, that is an In Pop Culture that I don't mind. If you want to write about what impact a subject of an article on pop culture (which is arguably what the Britney section is about), that's fine to me.
These are the kinds of pop culture triva entries I loathe with every fiber of my being: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bob_Crane&diff=prev&oldid=... and http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bob_Crane&diff=58948998&ol...
You see these kinds of things on so many articles, this was almost a mild one in comparison to some others since it only had two entries. I don't want to speak for anyone else, but I believe that those sort of things what was most annoying to people. The Britney one I personally have no problem with.

There was some debate here earlier about the desirability of the "In Pop Culture" subsections that inhabit a wide variety of Wikipedia articles, with all their fancruftiness. I just recently happened to notice that there's such a section... in the article on [[Britney Spears]]! Now, just what aspect of Ms. Spears (other than whatever minuscule amount of "private life" she may have) that *isn't* related to pop culture? That section title seems as redundant as "AOL For Dummies".
