Britney's VMAs 'performance'

I should have known that Britney Spears' big Video Music Awards performance would have been uncomfortable to watch the moment it opened, with that closeup of the weave tracks in the back of her head (seriously, MTV camera folks, didja think that was a flattering angle?). But I wasn't quite prepared for the awkward mess in store, as Britney gallumphed around like a zombie while lip-synching to her new single, "Gimme More."
I was really rooting for Britney to be awesome and get the show off on the right foot. And by all rights, she should have rocked — "Gimme More" has been received amazingly well (it's no "Toxic," but admit it, it's better than you expected) — and we have all those fond memories of Brit Brit from VMAs past (with the python, with Madonna and Xtina). But instead of watching a sexy, exciting performance — a resounding statement that yes, she IS Britney, bitch — I saw a tentative, confused-looking girl who could barely muster the energy to mouth along with the backing track, let alone work those stilleto boots. Britney, if you're gonna lip-synch, at least be entertaining!
PopWatchers, am I being too harsh?
UPDATE: If you haven't seen Britney's performance, you can watch it after the jump, via this clip from AOL Music. (If you watch the clip on the AOL Music page, it's preceded by an anti-drug PSA. Think AOL is trying to send a message?)

They keep playing one of her new songs on the radio, and as soon as I hear that song start up I change it. I can't S T A N D it.

I would not put her past buying her own CD. I think its gonna die down after this week when folks get a chance to listen to just how bad it is.

Those aren't the only people she's fucking, either.

Apparently in her delusional drunken state, she's too stupid to take birth control. Good lord, add filthy whore to the list. Wait, that was already there. =x You know though, sometimes I feel bad for her but then I remember she makes almost a million a month and is set to make 100 million this year alone. All that money and she can't buy a cook, parenting lessons, therapy or common sense?

100k on entertainment....is that her booze and drug bill each month? :lol:
Sergon 18 years ago
I would have to say yes. 100K is a lot of smack but she does have an entourage to think about. The one thing I will say for her is at least she does not drive herself when she is parting. She had a dug test yesterday not that we will ever know the real results. Her tools say shes clean but I do not buy it for a second. She was fucked up on Halloween.

Federline's monthly clothing budget is about the same amount of money I take home in a month. I'm completely disgusted.
Lolanae 18 years ago
Add another bill to Brit's tab...

This would make me happy, if it actually made a difference to her at all. I mean, $120k to her is like a McDonald's Drive Thru meal to me. Grrrr...

I think I'm going to blame Britney on the rising oil/gas prices too... ;)

This is what shes sposedly taking it is used for??


MODAFINIL (PROVIGIL)

What it does: reduces high from cocaine and also reduces cocaine cravings

How it works: unknown... but it does increase glutamate in the brain

Side effects: most common side effects are headache, back pain nausea, nervousness, insomnia and anxiety

Availability: by prescription from physicians

Warning: it is a schedule 4 drug so there is some potential for addiction to it

Dackis CA, Kampman KM, Lynch KG, Pettinati HM,O'Brien CP. "A double blind, placebo controlled trial of modafinil for cocaine dependence." Neuropsychopharmacology. 30: 205-211, 2005.

Oh now that's just too funny.

And apparently she has missed 8 out of 14 drug tests, and her lawyer is trying to say that making her take all these drug tests is unconstitutional.

I don't think its fair - the judge isn't a filthy whore promoting her album and showing her vagina to anyone that'll look. Pfft - that asshole judge, I swear.

Why is she even fighting to have her kids? Every time they're near her she's too involved in herself to notice them. I thought coke was like speed and made you skinny?
Lolanae 18 years ago
Well, some of her friend's apparently are worried she's pregnant again...I swear..that girl has lost what little bit of mind she did have.
Sergon 18 years ago
Coke Does that to start with but if its used over a long period of time if has the opposite effect on your metabolism. It shuts it down. Also people who do coke drink a lot which also slows down the metabolism. I had a couple of friends who had major coke problems in the 90's. They ended up bloated and fat. Also shes is off the coke now and on that prescription drug.

Provigil can inhibit the action of oral contraceptives and can cause the liver to metabolize hormones faster. Women who use low dosage oral contraceptives should be aware that Provigil may decrease the effectiveness of oral contraceptives. Experts recommend using another form of birth control while taking Provigil and for at least one month after you stop taking Provigil.

Oh goodie.

Brit just can't stay out of court in any fashion...

This on the heels of being told she can't drive with her kids in the car.

In the opening scenes of the video, Spears appears in the driver's seat of a hot pink Hummer floating on make-believe clouds.
