Get the closer mug.Related Words
One who bashes Britney Spears in public, in front of friends, on the internet (like urbandictionary.com- seriously, is it necessary to throw around words like "slut" and type with horrible grammer about her? Just makin' yourselves look bad, that's all I'm saying...), etc. but secretly like her music and/or follow her every exploit like a Tigerbeat teen girl.
I'd wager about 80% of Britney bashers secretly like her, and I know MANY of them. For as many people claim to hate her, suddenly it's weird when you look in their room and they have a few of her CDs (who later SWEAR it's their little sister's...sure). Also funny how she keeps hitting #1 all over the world when people continually say she's a fad and hate her...obviously there's quite a few who don't!

Yeah, so get this, Marsha was talking the other day about how much Britney Spears is a slut and she hates her, blah blah blah, but then we went driving around and "Toxic" was on like 3 of her burned CDs we were listening to.
I know! She is such a Closet Britneyfan.

Get the really close friend mug.(BUSINESS) a closely-held corporation has all or most of its stock owned by the management of the firm. In many cases, it has no stock at all (see "going public"), in which case it is a private company.
Usually people say "private corporation" to mean any company that is unaffiliated with the government, or any company run mainly for profit. It's impossible to buck this trend, so corporations with no issues of stock, or negligible amounts of stock held by the public, are called "private companies" despite the fact that not all companies are corporations. Cargill, Inc., for example, has annual revenues of $117 billion, but no shares available for trade. On the other hand, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst & Young are private companies but not a corporations. They are limited liability partnerships. The term "closely held" would not apply to them since partnerships do not issue stock.

Koch Industries is a super-sized, closely held corporation with two owners--Charles and David Koch, heirs to the oil refiner Fred Koch. Thanks to this peculiar status, magazines like Forbes are not allowed to report ANY financial statistics of the company at all (sales figures are suspiciously rounded to "$100,000,000,000.00").
Publix Super Markets (at the other end of the spectrum) is closely held--by its 125,000 employees.
