Britney Spears Fails To Deliver A Much Hyped Comeback


They had her on the marquee outside The Palms. Everyone has been talking about this performance for months. In fact, there was so much hype around this performance that it almost overshun all other performances up until the show started. So my question is, to Britney and whoever was behind the number. That’s it? You SUCKED. It pains me greatly to say it because I was really looking forward to her finally proving herself, for once. She wasn’t enjoying herself, there was absolutely no energy and frankly, I didn’t see anything here I didn’t see at her House of Blues concert. So, I ask again, that’s it? Heh, pack your bags Britney, go home. - Ruben

Regardless of the train-wreck that is Britney and her personal life, this was her chance to nationally and internationally prove that she can still rock as a performer. And she failed. It saddens me to say that the girl that used to sparkle on stage has lost her shine. There was no thrill in her eyes, no passion for what she was doing. The skimpy shiny outfit adorned by bad weave, the “risqué” choreography to which she barely danced to and grabbed the junk of male dancers did not help either. I was really rooting for her man, I was cheering for her to leave everyone with their jaws down to the floor and to have that be “THE” performance of the night, but instead it was Chris Brown’s.

Something definitely went down with Criss Angel because word on the street was that he was booted from the performance, creating a possible explanation for Britney’s unbelievably bad comeback. However, the mark of a professional is to be able to go with whatever happens. I feel like she was drunk. If you look at the first few seconds it seems like she kind of stumbles. It was so bad that even the lip-syncing was a bit off.

Long gone are the days when Britney would come out fully clothed and shock audiences by stripping down to a flesh-colored costume…now she just comes on stage naked and saves everyone the hassle. It’s quite a “comeback” alright. -Carolina

omg…that was the most horrific scenes i have ever seen…she was out of shape…she coulda covered it up…she was sleep “dancing” she used to be considered better than her professional dancers…and she looked like a shy high schoolers at the school talent show…yuck…the audience was laughing at her! why would MTV hype something like that? they had to know..and criss angel? where was his hand in it? were there really puppet strings attatched to her to make her appear somewhat lifelike? was that the trick? or was the trick that the illusion of greatest was presented but the reveal was of something utterly embarrassing? yuck…you lost your last chance britney! ew

YOU ALL SAW HER RIGHT HEEL BREAK OFF RIGHT?!?!

mission accomplished

but her HEEL SNAPPED OFF GUYS!

as if she wasn’t under ENOUGH pressure, her HEEL BREAKS off

I went back and rewatched. Her heel didn’t break. Her heels were either white or clear so they were hard to see. Or are you just making excuses?

Not buying it. She sure did some stomping and jumping on a “broken” heel. The heel could have been wobbly, I have had shoes like that before, where the shoe is made of soft material so the heel is unstable once you take pressure off of the heel…Still, it looked operational to me. The walking,stomping, and bouncing on the heel..no way.

Good lord, she didn’t even try! There was no energy in her dance, and she’s totally given up on giving even the illusion of lip-synching.
.
And about the whole Cris Angel thing? That was just another one of her cover stories, because he’s the only guy in the business left who would f*ck her. AND THE FANTARDS ATE IT UP LIKE POOP-ON-A-STICK! YOU BELIEVED IT! JUST LIKE HER SECRET MILLIONAIRE BOYFRIEND SECRETLY GUIDING HER CAREER! BRITNEY FANS BELIEVE ANYTHING SHE TELLS THEM!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW GET READY TO MAKE EXCUSES FOR BRITNEY’S LOUSY PERFORMANCE, AND HAVE SOME READY FOR HER PERSONAL LIFE AGAIN, BECAUSE SHE WON’T BE WORKING TOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!
.
The only thing which disappeared after tonight was britney’s chances as a comeback. Now the whole world has seen she isn’t going to make any effort at it. Sponsors will know she won’t work for their brand or product. And SHE HAS BECOME AN EMBARASSMENT TO HERSELF AND THE INDUSTRY. She spent more time partying than she did practicing for her most important performance of the last 5 years.
.
And no, her heel didn’t break. WAY TO MAKE UP AN EXCUSE FOR HER YOU FANTARD!!!!!! NOW THAT’S A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A FANTARD EATING BRITNEY’S POOP-ON-A-STICK. The only thing which is broken is fate, because it stuck it’s foot way up the @ss of britney’s career and broke it off.

Britney is getting old, I guess…..she is 25 now….she forgot how to dance….

Did anyone notice how 50 Cent was looking at the ceiling instead of Britney? It was not good………Britney doesn’t care AT ALL…..

2007-09-10 02:27:09

I saw that too. But if you were a guy sitting there, who would you look at? Hot backup dancer making an effort at dancing above you, or thickney britney, who you’ve seen half naked so many times in the past 6 months you could legally adopt her ass-cheeks as family, who is not even speaking the lines she’s supposed to be singing, and who is just counting off her dance steps with the same level of energy and enthusiasm you spend making a grocery list….
.
The most telling image is of her pic with P-Diddy or whatever name he goes by now. His hand is clenched like he doesn’t want any contact with her, his whole body is pulling away, and he’s frowning like he just got a whiff of BRITNEY’S SUPER SKANK VAPOR.

Think of how her dancers must have felt by trying to dance with her. I don’t want to sound vulgar, but I bet that trying to dance with Britney that night was like trying to hump a dead, cold fish.

Britney didn’t do too bad i felt.It wasn’t like the raving performances she has had, but i’ve seen worse people!She did good considering all the shit that people talk about her. I’d be nervous and stumbling too!You have to remember she’s going through depression, I don’t think she enjoys a lot of things right now.All you haters wouldnt either dumb-asses!Remember her on Saturday night live? She was great!She CAN sing…..come on people!Grow up! I believe she would had done better if she had a duet with someone, or went for a slow song halfway through the show at this time in her life.Dont be jealous…anyway..britney will come out of this shit,the tuff time she’s going through and she’s going to be great! In your face dumbasses!You did great considering Brit! Get back upon your feet and show us a good time sweet-britney. And dont worry about k-fed,just be the love of life thats in your heart and everything will work itself out.Talk your way through things within yourself until your happy!!!!YOUR DOING GREAT BRIT!! Keep Up The Good Work,It Gets Better. I’d like to see you do duets and make old songs yours, like an old song o the stones ,or neil young girlfriend.It would/will be great!Don’t pay any attention to the retards britney, their brain isn’t functioning right.

Its sad that you have nothing else better to do that point fingers at others to make you feel better about your selves!That slut Sara Silverman just publicly trashed Britneys kids on national television! I wouldnt be able to perform either in that case I would be wanting to kick the crap out of that woman for talking about my babies!! She was nervous…SI Fing what get over it Lets see some of you get out and perform after all the scrutiny she has endored I THINK NOT!!!! GO BRITNEY!!!

Comment by MikeG

“…imagine what must be going through her mind…”
.
Well, during her performance, I imagine it was something like this:
.
“Yeah, I’m hot. They love me”
.
“Step one-VMA comeback performance. Step two-drunken jacuzzi party”
.
“Where do I go next? I’ve already hit the Wendy’s and Taco Bell drive-thru’s in Vegas…….KFC? Oh yeah, keep lip synching…I forgot for a second but nobody noticed because I’m so hot”
.
“This is sooooooo much better than my ‘Hit Me One More Time’ that my mom & manager had me do.”
.
“With all the fast food I’ve been eating and the Xenical I’ve been taking, it’s a damn good thing Depends makes a diaper that will fit in my short-shorts!”
.
“Hey, nobody is digging the show! Oh well, I’ll just tell them I broke a heel”
.
“Geez, I left a party at 4:30 am the night before a show for this?”

2007-09-10 10:40:31

Mandy, nobody told her to be late to rehersals or go out partying until sunrise every day she was in LV, INCLUDING THE NIGHT BEFORE THE VMAs. Nobody told her she was too fat for the bikini, that her lower abdomen would bounce in some of the moves, or that it just looked plain weird and pudgy from the side. Nobody told her to FORGET THE WORDS SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE LIP-SYNCHING. Nobody told her to SLEEP WALK THROUGH THE BIGGEST PERFORMANCE SHE HAD IN YEARS. Hell, her backup dancers sure as hell made an effort, their moves were clean, crisp, and fast, probably because they were practicing while britney was licking her spilled Mojito of the women’s restroom floor.
.
If britney is depressed it’s because SHE BLEW IT! IT’S HER FAULT, NOBODY ELSES! FINDING SOMEONE ELSE TO BLAME WON’T MAKE HER FEEL ANY BETTER BECAUSE SHE KNOWS BETTER THAN ANYONE, INCLUDING YOU AND ALL THE OTHER FANTARDS, WHAT IT TOOK TO BE A STAR OF THAT MAGNITUDE, AND SHE DOESN’T WANT TO MAKE THAT EFFORT ANYMORE, SHE JUST WANTS TO RIDE IT’S COAT-TAILS AS LONG AS DELUSIONAL FANTARDS LIKE YOU ARE AROUND TO WORSHIP THAT SLEEP WALKING, CAN’T EVEN LIP-SYNCH A DAMN SONG, CROTCH-FLASHING TRAINWRECK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything written here is true. Her performance was HORRIBLE! She looked chubby, the outfit did not compliment her physique at all and her hair was just awful. The only good thing about seeing her tonight was her makeup which was surprisingly done tastefully.

Goodluck with what’s left of your “comeback” Britney, you’ll need it.

“…Everything written here is true. Her performance was HORRIBLE! She looked chubby, the outfit did not compliment her physique at all and her hair was just awful…”
.
Well, looking on the bright side, AT LEAST SHE GOT SOMEONE ELSE TO DO THE POLE DANCING THIS TIME!!!!!!!!
.
…and she wore a NEW pair of fishnets (see that fantards, something positive!), and she didn’t wear those same brown leather freak boots she’ll probably be wearing in public today.
.
Any chance she’ll throw up (no pun intended) an apology to her fans on her website for her performance? Naaah, she only uses that for personal attacks. The best they’ll get is an excuse…

I’m not a Britney fan - I don’t think she has much of a singing voice. But I always did have the opinion that she could dance and perform well.

This performance. . . I was embarrassed for her while watching it. I can’t decide if she has no confidence in herself anymore or if she just stopped giving a sh*t.

Comment by MikeG
2007-09-10 02:02:26

I don’t know if she stopped caring, but she sure as hell isn’t going to put any effort in for it. Look at her at the parties, which DOES SEEM TO BE THE ONLY THING SHE CARES ABOUT, and she didn’t even get her nails done. Her nails were chewed off and stubby, with specks and traces of polish from the week before in LA. Sure its superficial, but other promising stars, older ones stretching their career, AND EVEN THE WAITERS AND WAITRESSES MADE MORE OF AN EFFORT TO PRESENT THEIR BEST APPEARANCE.
.
I think poor Ru and Miss C are right, britney only wants you to worship her, no matter who she truly is, what she does, or how little she cares for her fans who put everything on the line for her and this performance. THAT IS OBVIOUS.

“…and ruben ur fucking confusing, somtimes ur rooting for her and somtimes ur not, make ur mind up…”

Human beings are complicated animals k-his reasons for leaving the WOB are well known. But that doesn’t mean he can’t hope she’ll pull it together and get her life turned around. A smashing success at the VMAs was exactly what she needed, even if her chances at becoming a good mom or role model afterwards were slim.
.
But now, with an upcoming album with only one good song that everyone’s already heard, and associated to a lousy performance, a recent and consistent history of poor performances and flaky interviews, a chance that maybe, just perhaps, now her fantards won’t believe every cover story she spins, or everything they read on BH, and it isn’t looking too good for her. In fact the storm clouds are quite dark indeed.
.
Anybody want to start a britney implosion pool? Pick a date for the next nip slip, crotch flash, nanny firing, car wrecking, foolishly-expose-the-children-to-danger episode, hair shaving, profanity creaming (bonus points for when the kids are with her), the next time she vomits on self, attacks an SUV, or the grandaddy of them all, GOES BACK TO REHAB? My guess will be at least one of these by Thursday….THIS THURSDAY! “We’re coming 9/14!”

I also hate agreeing with Ruben and Carolina, but I guess they were right all along!

That much hyped performance was disrespectful not only with fans but with the general audience: we were promised something we didn’t get!

Shame on you, producers!

And I’m sorry Britney, but haters were also right about you. You are sick, you’re tired of life, you’re looking for something you obviously don’t have in the wrong places and with the wrong people.

Poor babies, man, seriously!

Yeah, I agree… something had to be up.

She was excited about this performance and practicing a shit load. During the performance she messed up her Lipsyncing and her dancing… she was not into it at all.

Whats wrong brit? Something is up, again I agree.

Looking for excuses to make for her, huh?
.
The fact that you think she was practicing a lot is your first mistake and a sign that the fantards don’t see things realistically. She did a minimum of practicing, and didn’t even make much of an effort at it when she was there…and guess what, she even showed up late for some!

Yikes–I have never been a big Brit fan, but I was truly embarrassed just watching her. Her weave looked ragged and greasy, her roots didn’t match the weave, her outfit made her look fat (and out of all the perfromers she was wearing the least amount of clothes—-women with way better bodies choose to wear more clothes), her mouth wasn’t even moving with the words continuously (like she forgot halfway through to lip sync). Yikes, yikes, yikes!

A huge part of this disaster is Britney’s own doing. Instead of partying it up all weekend she should’ve been rehearsing 8+ hours each day for an entire week getting ready for this show. This just shows that no one can really succeed without hard work, passion, and dedication. She no longer has any of those things when it comes to her music or performing on stage. She did not look happy on that stage and I can imagine for many reasons. She was probably nervous and that is what happens when you have to go on stage in front of millions of people unprepared. She looked very unhappy and you could tell in her eyes that she is no longer a girl but a woman with a load of problems she was bringing with her on that stage where she knew everyone on the planet would judge her. You can’t pull something like this off with all of that baggage and emotional problems.

But I will say that I believe that some of the fault lies with MTV and Criss Angel. They both obviously manipulated her into this. MTV only wanted Britney on the show to improve their ratings. They honestly didn’t care about her “comeback”. They knew that whether Britney did a horrible or amazing job that millions would tune in just to see her. That was why they asked her to do this. They have creative control over this show yet they allowed Sarah Silverman to say those very mean things when Britney left the stage. I’m definitely not a Britaloony or a fanatic of hers but I thought her comments went way too far and MTV should not have allowed it. They made a fool of her. And Criss Angel probably used Britney to get his 15 minutes of fame and to get into her pants like all the other men she’s been with in her life. It really sucks. Yes, ultimately Britney is the one who need to take control of her life but when you are surrounded by people who only want to use you I can now believe that those factors have helped contribute to her downfall.

Britney screwed up on her own, and Sarah Silverman is responsible for her own comments. You don’t insult children that way. Someday they are going to hear what was said about them and she’ll do what? send a letter of apology?

2007-09-10 06:05:56

I agree with Mike…
Point is, they set her up to be humiliated, and they succeeded. If I were Britney, I wouldn’t ever show my face in L.A. or anywhere near music again! It was a disaster and just proves what we “know nothing haters” have been saying for years now.

2007-09-09 20:33:27

I am so sad! I would even go so far as to say that I’m devastated! She’s just not who she once was…whether it’s because she’s become so jaded that she just doesn’t give a crap anymore OR that her confidence has been ripped and torn by the monumental changes and obstacles in her life that she’s lost herself completely. She wasn’t ready for this performance. She just should have kept quiet and kept people wondering until she had something solid to showcase. I would really like to know what’s going on in her mind right now… Is she having thoughts of embarassement and regret or is she having thoughts of I don’t give a crap anymore, I’ve already came and conquered and I’m done. If it’s the latter, then why even put out a record??? I guess time will tell…

Comment by Jen
2007-09-10 06:07:36

Contractual obligation!!! I bet the whole record is just as bad as this first single, and she very well could be doing it all on purpose so that she doesn’t have to record anything else, EVER!!
I seriously think she wants out, and this is her way of GETTING out. She wants the buzz, but not to work!!!

I liked the song but man…it was SOOO DISAPPOINTING! I was rooting for this chick but I dunno..she needs to step up her game.

What did you expect from her - she’s not the same Britney we once knew…hopefully that old Britney will emerge again.
I agree that her performance was bad…the worst I’ve seen from her anyway.
I know Britney will come back, she always does - you just got to give her time.
And to those of you who called her ‘chubby’, I’m not if you remember, but she’s had two kids…

3. SHE’S A MOTHER NOW, ACT AND DRESS THE PART.
4. HER BODY ISN’T WHAT IT WAS AS A KID…DRESS YOUR SIZE!!!

No…I got to thinking about something. Idk how to word this exactly but I hope yall know what I’m trying to say. I don’t want old Britney back. I want her to act like a mature woman of 25. Each person in this world goes through stages. I think of myself and I feel like I’m a completely different person than who I was when I was 13 or 16 or even 20. It’s almost as if I’m a complete stranger to my younger selves. This new Britney needs to change for the better. She needs to hit on a new stage of her life and stop acting like a 25 year old trying to fit into the peg that her 18 year old self used to fit into. She needs to stop putting her 25 year old self into a peg that a normal 14 year old would fit into. Some of the stuff Britney pulls (like the fat fuck comment, flipping the bird, etc) fits into something that a 14 year old would do if the 14 year old was trying to give off the image of being some bad ass motherfucker or something.

Well, she does (as a mother of two) wear a hat with “F*CK” printed on it (with no “*” either)

Wow, I’m Brit’s biggest fan and am often on here defending her from Ruben’s tirades but he’s right. That was BAD. I don’t think it was her comeback because she never flopped or anything but everyone was expecting ALOT and she just didn’t deliver. There was nothing going on in her eyes, no performance or energy, she really wasn’t into it…it reminds me of the last couple shows of the Onyx Hotel Tour, she just wasn’t into it….this is sad…

It wasn’t what she used to be…but you all make it sound like she was this great performer… The only difference between last night and last TIME…last TIME she was out and performing she looked like she wanted to be there….in her eyes and face. The performance as a whole was exactly the same as it always was…she just didn’t fake it this time!!!

I knew it. I knew Criss Angel was going to be blamed for this mess. How is it his fault that she is over? Oh, he used her, he did this, he did that. As a woman, I find those excuses tired. No one gets used unless they allow themselves to be used.

Britney has had every chance in the world and she has blown them all. It’s not MTV’s fault, it’s not K-Fed’s fault, it’s not her manager’s fault, it’s not her mama’s fault, it’s not her dog’s fault and it is certainly not Criss Angel’s fault that she is a loser.

This is exactly why she fails. Instead of someone trying to tell her she’s a screw up, she surrounds herself with people who always agree with her. Oh, wait. People did try to help. Now she has restraining orders against them.

I completely agree with you. And you know, even if something did go down with Criss Angel, she should have worked it out and did her thing. Like Carolina said, that’s what being a performer is all about. Being able to just go with the flow and adjust.

Too bad. In a weird way i too was kinda rooting for her. I thought she would prove all of us haterz wrong, but she didnt. She gave us exaclty what we wanted.I think MTV and her management team should have advised her NOT to perform. MTV got what they wanted from this, they gave us the train-wreck performace we all wanted to see wihthout considering her well being.
When we all look back at this on VMA mini shows we will see the fallen pop star that BOMBED her comeback. I feel for the more negative attention she is going to get from this. Someone please put her on suicide watch =/

It was an awful performance, possibly the worst in VMA history, but I don’t know if I would call it a train wreck……wait a minute…….the most daring moment was when she did a high school band camp “trust fall”…..yep, IT WAS A TRAIN WRECK!

Perez Hilton has gotten to the bottom of that. No one but Sarah knew what she was going to say on stage, so no, Britney did not know beforehand that she and her kids would get bashed. Britney is to blame for her poor performance, no one else.

Damn! She looked high and terrified at the same time.
She also looked like she couldnt walk in those Mariah Carey shoes either. She wasnt ready for that performance, whatever the reasons may be. No passion, no spark, no fire. She was SCARED and you could see the lack of confidence displayed in every step she took.

I was pulling for this girl to blow people away simply because I always root for the underdog. Having said that, Ive seen worse and if she really wants this she will work even harder after what happend last night.

However the whole VMS’s blew chunks. The only good performance was Chris Brown.

I’m not a fan of Justin Timberlake’s but I seriously loved the ending performance when Justin/Nelly/Timbaland performed.

She’s such a disappointment…she was wobbly and she almost tripped in the beginning. Plus, she had those horrible blue contacts in and her hair looked like shit. Personally, she looked tipsy or high…and yepper, super stars were laughing at her. Diddy looked embarrassed for her and Rhiana looked ready to piss herself she was laughing so hard. She had such an amazing chance to prove the world wrong about her and she chose to dress like a $5.99 hooker with a bad wig and lip sync another “PERFORMANCE”! Do it all the way or not at all Britney, Bitch!

AWE..you’re giving her too much credit. I don’t know too many people who would pay a whole $5.99 for that garbage… Even a $.99 is a bit too pricey for THAT crap! It needs to be discounted just to be considered.

Kids were insulted AFTER performance

I don’t even care about her ‘performance’ as much as I think Sarah Silverman needs to pack HER bags and go home. She’s a freaking loser.

I have to agree that this was a horrible performence…definitkey not up to Britney’s standards. But I don’t think its the end of the world.
