It’s Britney, Bitch!
MTV VMAs 2007 was really boring, with the almost exception of the opening act. None other than Ms. Train Wreck 2007 herself, Britney Spears. Now don’t get me wrong, I like her music (I’m not afraid to admit it either), but she’s been nuts recently. So, getting back to her performance. This is perhaps the most highly publicized VMA performance ever, there was rumors of Criss Angel collaborating with her to have her disappearing and reappearing and shit… but that didn’t happen. It didn’t even MAYBE happen. It was just Britney, seemingly lost on stage (confused maybe), in hot pants and a bra, singing “Gimme More” from her upcoming album. She didn’t seem to have confidence in her performance, seemed almost lost on stage, and upon watching the rehearsal teaser MTV promoted the show with, she could have DEFINITELY done better.
Considering the weight she’s lost (and for those who are still calling her fat, step off), what shes gone through personally and in the media, and what she’s going through now trying to get her career back on track, I’d give the performance a soft 5 – Could have been SO much better, but given her current state, not horrible. But we all know Britney can dance better than this. (Don’t even pretend you haven’t watched her videos.)

Oh, and I must make mention of Justin Timberlake and the crew at SNL for winning the Emmy for Dick in a Box. Congrats guys, you earned it.
Step one…
