Britney's MTV performance
 

everyone's talking about it, we may as well too. I was secretly hoping for an unbelievable comeback, but what we got was jiggly belly, wobbly dancing, bad pantomiming, a bad weave, a set of blue contacts, missing fake fingernails and lots of celebs making WTF faces.

can't Britney talk to Beyonce' and find out where she gets her weave? or at least talk to Tyra? couldn't Britney have worn a one-piece something? that would have made a world of difference. where was Criss Angel? one positive thing I can say is that her face looked great.

there are so many rumours floating to excuse the bad performance...Sarah Silverman was too mean in rehearsals and it upset Britney, Britney's shoe was broken, the Palms nixxed the magic stunt at the last second...blah blah blah. I don't buy any of that.

watch for yourself:

i didn't watch it. but i heard that it was bad.

I don't care for Britney, but I was hoping for something insane and typical of her other performances. And then... yeah. She was a hot mess.

i was so glad i taped this, my son & i died watching britney this morning~ she was a mess~ i loved how perez hilton said we love her beer belly~ i have never been a britney fan at all, & this goes to show she is talentless~ she looked all drugged up or drunk~ & boo hoo if sarah hurt her feelings, i thought the **** she was saying was hilarious~ & if britney doesn't want people making fun of her...uhm well...be a better parent, it's pretty bad when her actions of late, make kfed look like the better parent~

it was really terrible...i can't decide if she was paralyzed with stage fright, or if she just really sucked. she was staggering around like she was drunk, tho.

That whole show sucked ass...I can't believe I watched the whole thing!

Out of all the mediocre performances, Britney's was the worst. Her "comeback" was worth a shot, but I think it's time to throw in the cheeto stained towel.

they didn't show it, but tmz has the video of kid rock & tommy lee's fight~

p.diddy & 50 cent looked mortified & in pain in the audience during britney's performance:laugh:~

I know. I felt like I was watching a bad episode of Wild N Out. it wasn't structured well, I couldn't tell what was an actual performance and I think I only saw 2 awards given out. I did like Justin Timberlake telling MTV to play more videos...twice! "we don't need more reality shows" - right in front of The Hills girls. I laughed my ass off.
you say Cheetos, I say Doritos. Doritos would be more acceptable, tbh. :shrug:

He was absolutely right. How much sense does it make to have a two hour awards show when MTV only plays an hour's worth of videos every day?

that's where we differ, sir. :mad:

even on TRL, the freaking video countdown, they only show a minute and a half of each video. so stoopid.
I'll see your :mad: and raise you a :distress:

~*why don't you love me*~

you know i love you. just know that we can never eat cheesy snack foods together. so i'll see your :distress: and raise you a :sorry:

The thing is, she doesn't even look that bad, it's just her choice of (or well, lack of) clothing that's really questionable.

If people consider that a beer belly, I have my work cut out for me. :shocked:

Where's that fighting clip? Must.see.

it wasn't meant to be. :o
no, she doesn't. I'd probably be happy to have her body as it is now, but when this is your supposed comeback and you are known for having a ripped body, you can't show up after dieting for a couple months after having 2 kids and eating, smoking and drinking like she has for the past couple of years and expect people not to expect to see that body or something similar. I guess what I'm saying is, if she couldn't get her "old" body back or couldn't since her body has changed, like you say, she should have worn something more flattering and that didn't show her gut hanging over.

Top 3 moments...

Britney proving how "talented" she is once again. :lol:

Kanye West losing in all 5 categories he was nominated and then saying "give a black man a chance" :lol:

Tommy Lee and Kid Rock fighting in the audience and Jamie Foxx saying "Can't we stop all this white on white violence" :lol::lol:

Omigod, this is BRUTAL. It's punishing to watch. I can't stand Britney but I hate seeing her such a mess, honestly. The bra top doesn't even fit. She keeps stumbling and is barely putting any effort into her dancing. Love the look on Fitty's face. She looks like the drunk girl at the party who stripped and started lip synching to Britney. Damn girl, go back to rehab.

I don't see the beer belly, she was just lazy about flexing it but it certainly is not a large belly. We just have impossible standards for celebs man.

My God, what a train wreck!

I don't think she was in the same shape as she has been in the past, but I didn't think she looked "fat".

Even with her trainwreck of a life as of late, I thought that she could at least make an effort to pull this off. How wrong I was! She looked like she could puke at any second from nerves, and she also seemed unfamiliar with any of the dance steps as if she was doing it for only the second or third time.

Where was the Chris Angel magic anyway???? :shrug:

The audience looked horrified. The jokes were funny about her, but I didn't really think the ones about her kids were appropriate. JMO.

but Britney herself has admitted to doing thousands of crunches in the past to maintain her stomach. she used to be known for having one of the best mid-sections. so, that part's not impossible. and no, it's not a large belly by any means. but like I was saying, when you're used to seeing such a great set of abs, you don't expect to see her come out in a 2 piece knowing full well her stomach isn't in the best shape...cover it up for now until you can work on it. if she had covered up a little more, the issue of her belly wouldn't even be an issue. I do agree that we put a lot of pressure on celebs, but that kinda comes with the territory.

anyway, I wasn't necessarily going to criticize her body cause lord knows my ass ain't perfect...you know, thunder thighs and all...I'm more disappointed in her performance as a whole.

right or wrong, everyone knows that's Sarah Silverman's schtick. kinda like Kathy Griffin. you know they are gonna say something inappropriate. it's ok for Sarah to make jokes at blacks and Jews, but not at Britney's kids? gimme a break. (I'm not saying that specifically at you Heather. ;) ) she's a comedian. would you say the same thing about/to George Carlin?

Looks like ol' Brit needs to slow down on the pills.

The performance would have been 100x better if she wasn't completely dazed. Girlfriend looks like she's been having cocktails of xanax, valium, and percocet. Really... she just looks pill-hazed to me.

She is a bit thicker now, but I don't think her body looks bad. I think it was a bad outfit choice; if a different two-piece would have been selected, the outcome may have been different. Her tummy definitely isn't as cut as it used to be, but I didn't think it looked like a jiggly beer gut. Obviously, more crunches would get her back to where she is... but looking at how she was a few months ago, this is a definite improvement. I wouldn't be surprised if she gets her abs back.

I didn't watch the VMAs, and I'm glad. I would be interested to know about this Kid Rock/Tommy Lee fight. Physical fight? Who won? :laugh:

I screamed at the TV, "OMG, that's weave is terrible!"

Her lip-synching was worse.

Y'all have said it all already. Trainwreck, indeed.

Judging from those photos, I'd have to say that Britney is a woman with true class. :rolleyes:

I know you're right about this. She's also said she loves sit ups. I still hate that we're so critical of people's bodies here and don't think it's necessary. And to be fair, on YouTube you can't really see her abs because of the resolution of the video so I couldn't really tell what they look like.

agreed.

word word word

I saw the clip and she wasn't that horrible. She's a mom. How many of us who had two kids could look that good? I know I don't:mad::lol: Britney just needs more time to work on her performances and find a better person who knows how to dress her for these performances. She isn't 19 anymore. It will take awhile to have ripped stomach muscles again. At least she tried.

I'd like to see all of those Brit haters go out on stage in a skimpy bikini and high heeled boots on tv and try to do what some of these performers have to do. For instance, Perez Hilton:lol: That guy couldn't get his big toe into Britney's bootie panties she was wearing so he needs to look in the mirror and just remain quiet and promise us he will keep alot of clothes on:lol::lol:

Who is Sarah Silverman? Never heard of her. What did she say about Britney's kids?

Well, when you've spent the last ten years of your life cultivating a self-image of "the whore next door," covering yourself in baby oil and dancing around the stage in your skivvies with a python wrapped your neck, any deviation in your personal appearance will result in a hailstorm of ridicule. :lol:

She called them the cutest mistakes to come out of a hairless vagina. And then she made a face w/ her lips (it's on perezhilton.com). :D

The saddest part is that this is what the music industry has become. She's not even singing, hell, she's not even lip-syncing. Apparantly she feels like all she has to do is stand up there half naked and try to do some sexy moves. :shrug:

lmao.

the people on perez are bitching about Sarah being not funny and how people weren't laughing, and how the comment about britney's kids was below the belt. lol, honestly, that's probably the nicest thing sarah silverman has ever said about anyone. i'd like to see a clip of her whole performance... she's almost always funny to me, but i have a warped sense of humor too. :laugh:

and according to what I just read, Britney gave us all confirmation last night that she's still, um, hairless. does she never learn from her mistakes?

It sure does seem like Britney's camp has taken the "even bad publicity is good publicity" schtick a little too far at this point.

I love Sarah too, but she kinda did have an off-nite. I don't think the set-up of the audience helped either - she kept trying to spot celebs to pick on, but was having a hard time finding any with all those giant round stage/table things.

The problem with it was...well everything. I don't know where to start. The outfit, the complete lack of passion, the lip synched vocals and her hair! Jesus H. Christ! Who let her out like that?

Agreed. Oh and Alicia Keys! Best performance of the night, IMHO.

Her body is fine, IMO. I just don't think I would've chosen that outfit to make my comeback in, especially when people are expecting to see the body of the girl who performed with the snake a few years back. But let's face it, she's had two kids, has a sugary looking Starbucks drink in her hand in all the pap shots of her, been in and out of rehab and is still partying. She's 25 now. That's a lot of living for someone her age. I can't figure out if she is just disinterested in being that Britney Spears anymore or is just too wasted to care. By contrast, at least when Stevie was at the height of her cocaine use, she could still manage to give a compelling performance. And she was in her 30's. Whomever her manager is should have nixed this performance. I would not want to be her today. :distress:

It is safe to say she is a trainwreck..:nod:

There's a clip up now on MTV's website. It's hard to tell though because the camera doesn't zoom in until security is pulling them apart. Kid Rock got the ticket though.

Which isn't even true because we all know she had the C section so the doctors could do the tummy tuck at the same time. :lol:
