MTV Awards bounce back after Britney

LAS VEGAS - Somewhere, Kevin Federline is laughing. An out-of-shape, out-of-touch Britney Spears delivered what was destined to be the most talked about performance of the MTV Video Music Awards — but for all the wrong reasons.

Kicking off the show Sunday night with her new single, "Gimme More," Spears looked bleary and unprepared, much like her recent tabloid exploits on the streets of Los Angeles. She walked through her dance moves with little enthusiasm. She appeared to have forgotten the art of lip-synching. And, perhaps most unforgivable given her once-taut frame, she looked embarrassingly out of shape.

Even the celebrity-studded audience seemed bewildered. 50 Cent looked at Spears with a confused look on his face; Diddy, her new best friend, was expressionless.

Some comeback. Breathlessly hyped by MTV as the evening's most anticipated performance, it became the most shockingly bad of the night. Jive Records might want to push back that Nov. 13 album release date.

lolololol

[Mr. Gundam]

It starts here in eight minutes, I may have to catch this train wreck.

[Ichirou]

I'll watch her flabby body gyrate on YouTube when I get home from work.  Looking forward to watching this trainwreck!

Typical black behavior:

LAS VEGAS - Sour grapes from Kanye West — again. Shut out at the Video Music Awards, Kanye West threw a tantrum Sunday night in front of media and crew backstage as the MTV show was ending.

West, waiting for an elevator in a crowded hallway, began yelling about losing all five categories for which he was nominated.

"That's two years in a row, man ... give a black man a chance," West said, stomping around his entourage and directing his comments at a reporter. "I'm trying hard man, I have the ... number one record, man."

West said he never will return to MTV.

The rapper was nomination for five awards, including male artist of the year. This is the latest in a series of awards show outburst for West. Last year, he crashed the stage at the MTV Europe Awards after not winning for best video.

Poor girl.  She should have stayed out of the spotlight a little longer to work on her body.  You simply can't show up like that if you career is dependent on a sexy image.  As crazy as Linsdey Lohan's personal life has become, at least she's still hot. 

[Ichirou]

Kanye West hates Britney!

Viacom must be pulling the Britney videos from Youtube. 

This link should be good for awhile: http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/britney+spears+gimme+more/video/x2y0vv_britney-spears-gimme-more-live-vmas_events

[Smooth Groove]

Kanye has a legit complaint.  What can he do when racists like Demi keep holding back talented black people? 

[Mr. Gundam]

It's really boring, it's like she's not even trying to properly match her mouth to the audio recording, and she seems to not know the dance routine.

Haha! 50 looked really bored!

[demi]

She is not even trying.

[Ichirou]

Links to the video are blocked at work, I'll have to wait home till I can see it.  It should be LOL-tastic.

[Smooth Groove]

It's really boring, it's like she's not even trying to properly match her mouth to the audio recording, and she seems to not know the dance routine.

Haha! 50 looked really bored!

You know what?  None of that would have mattered very much if she had looked the way she used to.  Sadly she wasn't.  

[Mr. Gundam]

You just know Sarah Silverman wanted to make fun of that so bad.

Oh well, back to watching Weeds!!

[Ichirou]

Does she look tubby?

[Robo]

The reactions at the end are great.  Everyone is dumbfounded.

[demi]

She doesn't even sing because it's all a fucking chorus.

She didn't really look fat, she's just out of shape. It's so obvious, she does like one move and she's shaking her tits standing there, haha.

[Smooth Groove]

Maybe she's trying to become the white Aretha Franklin.  Minus the vocal abilities. 

[Ichirou]

(Image removed from quote.)

Holy shit.

[MrAngryFace]

Someone had to have been trying to talk her out of it.

[Robo]

That's a bad picture.  She's not nearly as fat as it makes her out to be.  Too far out of shape to be parading around in that outfit, though.

[Ichirou]

Her hair looks kind of ratty, too - those are extensions, right?  Her hair must be really short, still, from when she shaved it.

How long till she gives up the ghost and poses for Playboy in a desperate attempt to revive her career?

I doubt anyone would pay to see her nude.  Brit Brit was already dumb enough to show her twat in public.  And it shouldn't be too hard to find topless pics of her if you look hard enough.

What'd K-Fed do to her?  I never liked her face, but she used to be hot.

Is this better?

Knocked her up twice.

[abrader]

I wonder what Madonna thought of that

[Ichirou]

Schadenfreude.  Am I the only one who feels happy when these big stars fuck up their careers and personal lives in front of live studio audiences?

[Smooth Groove]

I would like that too.  Btw, do you think that Brit Brit looked pretty good in my cropped pic? 

[Ichirou]

Like I said, I've never liked her face...I dunno, I just can't forget seeing those pictures of her walking barefoot into gas station bathrooms, or shaving her head, or attacking that photographer's car with an umbrella...she just seems like such a redneck freak to me now. :/

[bagofeyes]

yuck, I hope one of the guys she fucks tonight comes in her eye and up her nose

[Ichirou]

K-Fed supposedly gave her herpes, btw.  That's why she gave birth through caesarian (sp?) instead of traditional births.



"playing with fire" indeed...

[Ecrofirt]

She didn't look bad at all. The picture posted had her bending backward with her arm hiding where her back ends and making her look big. It's an intentionally shitty picture of her.

[bagofeyes]

Nah, we tolerate famous people either because they're really talented, or they have smokin' hot bods to stare at. She's shit out of luck and better fuck the hell off.

[Ichirou]

After reading about her VMA performance I've been looking up stuff on Britney and it turns out child services are investigating her for child neglect. She may lose primary custody of her children to K-Fed.

When frickin' K-FED is a better parent than you, you know you have a problem.

[Ichirou]

Okay, I got home and saw it.

Wow.

That was terrible.

Her career is over.

[etiolate]

I wonder if the hags like Anna Nicole and Courtney Love, or the nuclear fallout that is Britney Spears or even the total airbrushed slut shrapnel of a Jenna Jamison or Pamela Anderson, or just any of the myriad of tore up porn actresses... but I just don't dig blondes anymore.  They've lost almost all lustre.  They've fallen tot he depths of the hair color hotness chart. At this point, the classic 80's blonde video babe sort of grosses me out. 

[Ichirou]

 

[abrader]

OMFG

EDIT: this made me out of contro llaugh many times.

[Gay Boy]

Britney.  Is it sad to admit I kind of liked the song Toxic of hers when the single came out like 5 or so years ago?

[Eduardo24]

I don´t understand what is so bad about the presentation...

[MrAngryFace]

I think it comes down to this:

Most famous people eventually break down in some fashion, most of them dont do it on stage.

[Ichirou]

The gossip moron guy Perez Hilton posted a hilarious "open letter" to Britney on his site:

http://perezhilton.com/?p=5263

Dear Britney,

Fuck you!

FUCK YOU!!!!!!!

We are insulted, offended and disgusted by your “performance” at the VMAs.

Are you fucking serious???

What you did was disrespectful to your few remaining fans. And it was disrespectful to MTV!

You didn’t even try!!!!!

You should have just cancelled, bitch.

Your performance was beyond pathetic. The old Britney Spears, who was at one point (a long time ago) truly great, would be embarrassed by your lack of professionalism and utterly shiteous appearance at the VMAs.

Where was Criss Angel? Where was the magic? And by ‘magic’ we don’t mean any tricks or illusions.

You seemed dead onstage. You have lost that spark and shine that used to ooze out of you!

We all know you lipsynch, but you couldn’t even do that well at the VMAs!

And you barely danced!

You couldn’t even get good hair extensions???

You have no one to blame for your failure but YOU!

There was no way you were going to be good. You were out partying every night before the VMAs for three days in a row until almost sunrise! You were probably still drunk or high during your performance!!! You almost tripped a few times, you fucking mess!!!!!!!

No bullshit excuse that you or your camp will come up with can make up for how pathetic your performance was.

You heard Sarah Silverman was going to make fun of your kids and it upset you? Deal with it! Rise above it! Or don’t go on!

A true professional will DELIVER - no matter what!!!!

Let’s repeat that. It’s worth repeating.

A true professional will deliver - NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

What you did was inexcusable!

Your new manager, Jeff Kwatinez, should be ashamed of himself! You have tainted his reputation and everyone at his company, The Firm, should run and hide.

Your record label, Jive, must be thrilled.

You should apologize to everyone, Britney!!!!

You are pathetic!

FUCK YOU!

xoxo

Perez

P.S. Your beer belly looked hot!

P.S. #2 - Thank God for Alicia Keys! She is the real deal! She killed it! She is what the VMAs should be all about - the music, the showmanship and the professionalism.

P.S. #3 - How badly did the Video Music Awards suck all-around???

P.S. #4 - For Perez’s full recap of the VMAs, tune in to What Perez Sez, premiering THIS TUESDAY, September 11th at 9 pm - only on Vh1!

P.S. #5 - We hope you are getting help, Britney. Seriously. Sincerely. You need help! We hope you have a good psychiatrist!

The beer belly comment made me lol.

[Eel O'Brian]

I'm trying to remember a point in time when Britney Spears and the words "truly great" could even be in the same sentence, but I'm not having any luck.

Britney's performance was so bad that it completely overshadowed the fight between Kid Rock and Tommy Lee.  It's pretty dumb to fight over Pam now.  Pam hasn't aged gracefully, to say the least. 

Not really NSFW, but it's a bikini pic.

    fuck kanye.  the less air time, the better.

[Mr. Gundam]

Eh, I actually liked the Stronger video...

[Phoenix Dark]

Kanye and Justice were robbed. Rhianna's video is average compared to those. Justice should have won; hell even Kanye admitted that their video was the best

[BlueTsunami]

It's really boring, it's like she's not even trying to properly match her mouth to the audio recording, and she seems to not know the dance routine.

Haha! 50 looked really bored!

Does she look tubby?

(Image removed from quote.)

I audibly said "No" to myself when I saw that picture. Talk about failing to launch.

[brawndolicious]

Britney.  Is it sad to admit I kind of liked the song Toxic of hers when the single came out like 5 or so years ago?

it was less than 5 years ago and yes, that's sad.

[anthonyOA]

fuck you guys. you're just jealous. that's what it is.

I'D STILL FUCK YOU BRITNEY. 

[Himu]

I watched it and it was hilarious

[Ichirou]

fuck you guys. you're just jealous. that's what it is.

I'D STILL FUCK YOU BRITNEY. 

Because she's nice and thick now, right?

[xnikki118x]

I don't see how everyone's all "OMG SHE'S SO FAT". One thing I always liked about her was that she wasn't rail-thin like every other chick pop-singer. She had a body more comparable to a real woman. My body is closer to hers than to like, Christina Aguilera's, and I think that's okay.

She isn't fat, but she doesn't have the tummy anymore to be able to wear stuff like that. But she's had 2 babies, boys at that, so it's to be expected. I think a different, less-revealing but still sexy outfit would have been much better for her.

I didn't see the performance, I'm just going on pictures. I did hear it today on the radio though and it sounded like a wreck.

Does gender of the babies make a difference in weight gain? That is kind of weird, I wonder why that is.
