I am too tired for show notes. I think I pontificate (did I use that right?) about some stuff, and mentioned other junk. Oh, and Britney. I think that’s it.
Yes, I saw the VMA’s. Yes I saw Britney’s “number”.
Sigh. After that I just didn’t have it in me to blog. I mean. Seriously. Brit, what were you thinking? I took the night off.
First of all, that outfit? Sure it’s hot. It’s even not horrible on her. But ‘not horrible’ doesn’t cut it. She needed to look amazing! She’s still a pretty girl. She could do it. I am sure that any disagreements with the hair stylist didn’t help. So bad outfit choice (although I’d love to see Madonna in that bikini) and bad hair. Secondly, our girl Brit wasn’t feeling it. If she were, we’d not have noticed either bad fashion choice. Britney knew how to captivate us back in the day. She looked stoned or bored or both. It was just awful.
But you read all that already, right? Watch it here. Then watch Brit and Madonna in 2003. More expression on Britney’s face in the first 10 seconds than in the whole Gimme More performance. Dude. Then there’s this one. This is the Britney I miss.
Aw well, better luck next time. I think I want her to make that comeback more than she does…
It’s sorta like Whitney sitting through a hairdresseing appointment when we all know she could just drop it off at the salon and go for a fuckin’ swim.
It get’s better. If you are not reading Willam, you should yo.
So it turns out that UPDATE: Just saw the news… Apparently it was like a 20 minute show. Four or five songs that were cut short as well as lip-synching the entire time. Although they said the dancing was good. Hrm. Britney…
The story on the website was a bit more optimistic:
Britney Spears took the stage late Tuesday at the House of Blues, making what is believed to be her first public concert appearance in nearly three years.
Starting the five-song set with her classic “Baby One More Time,” Spears was back in top form. The boots-wearing one-time teen pop queen appeared onstage in a pink bra top and a short white skirt with her belly ring out.
The drama of the past few months appeared to be behind her.
