R.I.P. Britney Spears' Career (1999-2007)
It was a hell of a run, one that began with an adorable Catholic school girl teasing her way into our hearts in the "Baby, One More Time..." video.
But Britney Spears' career officially came to an end this evening.
There's nothing left in the tank. Leading off tonight's MTV Video Music Awards, Britney Spears "sang" her new single, "Gimme More." She lip-synched it (badly), which would have been okay had there been any semblance of dance moves or theatrics. Not so.
All we saw tonight was a limp, uninterested, uninspired Britney Spears, lacking the pizzazz, energy, choreography and all-out hotness that made her famous.
It's a sad day when a performer as dynamic as Spears can no longer dance or even pretend to sing her own songs. But that day is this day. So weak.
Even that body is reduced to a shell of its former self, clearly showing signs of two births. Host Sarah Silverman even joked, "Have you seen Britney's kids? They're so cute! Almost as cute as that hairless vagina they popped out of!"
Not to worry, though. With that outfit she sported tonight, Spears served notice that she's ready for the next phase of her career... Cinemax. Late night.
More photos and video of Britney Spears' VMA debacle to come ...

Brit-Brit needs to stop-stop. Her hair weave was so bad it made...I don't know I can't even describe how horrid it was. As a dancer it looked as though she was just marking the movement as you do in rehearsals, nt performing them full out. In one part of the performance she appeared to stumble over herself, as if she were drunk or high (her eyes looked as though she was on something). My God with all those mistakes I wasn't even paying attention to her singing or shall I say not singing. She was a f$#@ing mess and she needs to put up her slutty danceing boots and call it a day. Her body didn't look to bad from afar, but up close you could see her stretch marks and loose skin. I have two kids and I know what happens to your body after giving birth. With all of the money she has and all the time she has had since her second child was born she could have had a tummy tuck and lipo to get in shape, but it as if she could care less and that was projected to her audience tonite. She was awful and I hope all of the talk about this wack-ass performance gets her mind right as allows her to see that she belongs at home with her babies (that is until Kevin takes them).

This was the worst performance ive ever seen and its a shame that real artists have to wait in line behind that over inflated and i mean inflated washed up pop star..She not only barely made it through she seemed highly intoxicated, overweight and at best a maybe top 50 american idol contestant. and another thing what happened to rock and roll where was nickelback, hinder, and the many of other bands that MTV has shunned..I guess we should call MTV yo mtv raps all day all night cuz lets face it according to MTV rock and roll is DEAD!!!!! thank god for the performance of Lincoln Park who half rocked half rapped!!! I could go on all day..If you need a columnist to tell you how it really is email me id be happy to let the world know the truth The REAL TRUTH!!!!
Rusty disgusty!!!

Hi everybody! I'm Italian, and last night as I was still awaken, I decided to watch Brit's performance at the VMA's....well, I might have done better to sleep! It was HORRIBLE!and that's probably nothing in comparison to what it really was...It's clear to everybody that her career is has come to an end. but maybe she haven't realised yet, continuing to make herself ridiculous before all...BRIT YOU SUCK!SET IT IN YOUR FREAKY MIND GIRL!THAT'S ENOUGH!we're tired to listen to all the people talking about you, GET LOST!after last night, dont you think that, maybe, we need some REAL ARTISTS?? MTV and all the Labels of the world, keep this as an advice...

She'a grasping at every straw she has and this was probably the last one. What else is there left for her???
September 10th, 2007 6:19 AM
Oh please, please, please, will someone make her stop! It's just too painful to watch anymore.

Who would give 5 bucks for a picture of that?
I've got classmates that look better!

Madonna lasted longer and is still a class act.
She changed and matured over the years.
Brit a spoiled brat of a generation thats like a mac attack. I what it now my way.
You have to work for it Folks... All the time.
You can't forget that in show biz.

The only good thing I can say after watching Britney last night was that it didn't last long. I lost interest in what she was "singing" when I saw the outfit she was wearing. She had to be high or drunk to think she could pull that outfit off with her current body. For some reason that I can't explain, she reminds me of Anna Nicole Smith. Sad.

We've been having quite a laugh talking about Brittany's VMA trainwreck video over at Highbrid Nation. Its ashame, I feel like her comeback has been derailed before its even begun. Oh and someone tell her about that weave. Looks horrible. Just rock the short hair.

AND YOU CANT LIVE WITHOUT IT CAN YOU? Britney dont let them get you down. Turn to God He will always be there for you and these freaks mean nothing!!!
September 11th, 2007 5:26 PM
she's soooooooo over (thank god!)
September 12th, 2007 8:16 PM
Kayla, why is it slander for people to give their opinions of a performance by an artist?
September 16th, 2007 1:31 AM
Why do shows allow lip syncing at all??? I don't get it. Shouldn't a live show be just that - LIVE?
September 20th, 2007 6:16 PM
I'm soooo over... Britney, Paris and Lohan.
Britney's "back up" dancers were so good they made Brit look like an ameteur. I don't want to see Britney anymore. K-Fed is just as disgusting.

People I realized... are just mean. People, with every opportunity will just try to drag you down.
wow...its really sad what people have become. No one is perfect for god sake... who are you people and who has made you feel so bad that you feel you need to put out that same type of energy ? I just feel bad .... maybe all of you should hold up the mirror at yourselves.. and maybe you will realize how inadequate YOU really are.
Peace

she didn't even try, it's as if she was mocking the whole thing, did she actually think that people were going to be blwn away by this performance, that they were going to be yay go britney you did a good job. this has been a huge dissapointment for us the fans its as if she takes for granted the luv that the fans have for her and assumes that she can do watever and they'll still be blwn away. if she doesn't care about her career what makes her think that her fans will,
