oh my goodness – what was she thinking?!? i’ve now watched britney spears‘ opening performance of MTV’s video music awards twice and i still come to the very same conclusion – it was horrible! (witness it for yourself below) i’ve already said that i love her new single gimme more but tonight in las vegas – she seemed out of place – her lip syncing was terrible – it felt like ms. spears forgot she was supposed to be ‘singing’ – she was wandering around that stage in a trance without any purpose or conviction! (btw what happened to criss angel wasn’t he supposed to be doing something with her?!?)
the whole performance just fell flat for me – i haven’t read what anybody else thought but i’d imagine that most people were seriously disappointed like myself! oh lordy – i quickly ran through the whole show and i have to say it certainly wasn’t one of MTV’s better ceremonies (and amy winehouse losing out to gym class heroes for best new artist is so fucking lame – give me a break) i think the best performances were provided by chris brown & rihanna – she came out looking fierce and commanded the stage while britney looked lost – girlfriend needs some more rehearsal time before she attempts another performance – plus i was also bugged out by her blue contacts – way fake looking and not flattering on her at all! before i lay it down for the evening i’ve also got to mention sarah silverman who totally rocked – damn she’s so funny – i totally love her – she can do no wrong! anyways i’m way beat after seeing underworld tonight – i’ll write about that more tomorrow evening! popbytes over & out for tonight…xxoo!
PS i agree with justin timberlake – MTV should play more videos than dumbass shows…
