Viewers are wondering why there has been a fan-led boycott of the show “Sweet Magnolias” amidst the Jamie Lynn Spears controversy. Spears portrayed Noreen Fitzgibbons, a supporting character who made her debut in the premiere episode titled “Pour it Out.” Her actions led to the breakdown of Maddie and Bill’s relationship, ultimately resulting in their divorce. Despite her storyline appearing to be wrapped up in the first season, fans are intrigued as to why she was promoted to a series regular in the following episodes.
Why did Sweet Magnolias fans want Jamie Lynn Spears’ Noreen gone?
Fans expressed disappointment towards Jamie Lynn Spears because they felt she wasn’t supporting her sister Britney during the conservatorship struggle. This dissatisfaction resulted from her return as a main character in Season 2, causing some fans to consider boycotting the show (as reported by HELLO!).
Additionally, the Framing Britney Spears documentary, which came out in 2021, offered fans a more detailed perspective on Britney’s fight against her conservatorship. It delves into the #FreeBritney campaign and her connection with Jamie Lynn.
Jamie Lynn Spears had frequently faced criticism for her silence regarding Britney’s legal battles. Yet, following her conservatorship hearing, she broke her silence on the matter. In a series of Instagram Stories, she explained, “I chose not to speak up earlier because I believed that as long as my sister wasn’t able to express herself publicly about what she needed to say, it wasn’t appropriate for me to do so.” (As reported by Deadline)
At a later time, Britney Spears voiced her displeasure towards her family via Instagram posts. She expressed her frustration by saying, “There’s nothing more disheartening than when those closest to you, who haven’t been there for you, comment on your situation, whatever it may be, and preach support. There’s nothing more infuriating than that!” (as reported by Variety). Additionally, she criticized her sister on social media, stating, “I don’t appreciate my sister performing my songs at an awards show in remixes!!” (according to Billboard).
Fan dissatisfaction with the strained portrayal of the sisters in Sweet Magnolias resulted in a call for the removal of Noreen Fitzgibbons from Season 2. Many vocalized their displeasure on social media, threatening to boycott the series if their request for a character recast wasn’t granted. Despite the significant negative response towards Jamie previously, she continued to be included in the show.
