It all started at the 2008 VMAs. Britney (surprisingly, to some) took home 3 awards, including the top honor, Video of the Year. After two babies, a failed marriage and a serious fall from grace, the world celebrated the return of our favorite pop star.
And the ball kept rolling through 2009. Spears ditched the douche bags (who can forget Sam Lutfi and Adnan Ghalib?) and wigs, got back in the recording studio and went on a world tour. She secured an endorsement deal with Candies, she showed up on the cover of magazines again, she had multiple hits, and she got back partial custody of her children. Yeah, it was a pretty great year for Ms. Britney.
But I have to ask: despite all that, is Britney really back?
While she may have given up the hourly Starbucks runs and love affairs with the Paparazzi, I find it difficult to look at Britney as the mega super star I once stalked after a concert (true story – her giant body guard was not happy). I, like most young girls, idolized Britney. She was hot, world famous, a trend setter, talented, and her songs were the best.
Now, she’s hot, but after watching her self destruct, I can’t look at her and not see the very talented team that is so obviously dictating her every move. Read More »
So, which is it? Will Britney be performing at the VMAs this evening? Should we all tune in to watch her poorly lip sync her way back into that thriving career she once had? Should I stop doing everything else and prepare to watch her go sh*t nuts on stage?
To say that Britney Spears fell off the crazy tree and hit every branch on the way down, is an understatement. She was at the top of her game until that infamous Vegas marriage; then it all seemed to unravel.
We can still remember Britney’s glory days – back when she had abs of steel and didn’t look like a hot tranny mess on stage. In honor of the possible VMA performance tonight (that we are secretly praying for), we have compiled the videos from her previous 5 VMA appearances.
She did it all: danced in a slutty outfit, danced with a snake, made-out with Madonna, totally bombed a performance….but no matter what, she always got people talking.
We just can’t wait to see what the topic is this year… Read More »
You know how I was all “Knight Rider was such a weird show. There’s no way they’re gonna remake that for the Fall 2008 TV season”…and now this is happening? Well, after the shame that was 9/9/07, I was positive Britney Spears would stay far, far away from the limelight as well as far, far away from the VMA’s…but guess what? She’s not.
That’s right. B. Spears will not only be at the the 2008 VMA’s, she’ll be opening the damn ceremony, JUST LIKE LAST TIME! Either her brain is still fritzing out, or she’s got balls of steel and totally doesn’t care that she’s revisiting failed ground.
Obviously, MTV and Britney’s peeps are 100% sure she’ll do fantastic. I don’t really share their complete optimism, but I don’t think there’s any way she can be worse than the drugged up, tripping Britney we saw a year ago.
What do you think? Will Spears crash and burn again, or totally redeem herself in every way?
