I think she used to sing everytime live because it was still. But all the songs in the medley will be dance songs I assume. If I went to see Mariah and she mimed the entire thing I'd be mad, but it's just not what I want or care about from Britney. Lip syncing to 16 year old vocals is just what she does :') Correct! |

It's a sad day when all you want from someone who is supposed to be a singer is a half decent lip synched performance.

Well I do hope it's (and am expecting it to be) better than half decent whatever it is!

It's a sad day when all you want from someone who is supposed to be a singer is a half decent lip synched performance. Oh shut up. You act like the lip syncing is this new issue, when it's how she's performed through out her entire career. The recent Vegas performances are a lot better than half decent. And really it boils down to the fact that her fans have been begging for a performance at an awards show for years and she's delivering it. Why don't you have a seat and wait to see what she comes up with instead of belittling her as a performer and us as fans of her. When her fans start having a problem with lip syncing we will let you know though. No one goes to see Britney to hear her try to sing 'Work Bitch' live while humping the floor. We are hear to see her dance. If you aren't okay with lip syncing you shouldn't even watch the performance. |

SERVE ME THIS BRITNEY AND I WILL PEE MYSELF AND PEE ON THE HATERS.
But maybe she will hook you lip sync haters with a nice pre recorded vocal like all her peers do. So that way we can pretend just like Katy Perry and Rihanna fans. :,) |

Disagree, well it was a hit, not as big as her other hits, but it's gone on to become one of her signature hits. It's cultural impact has been huge and it's made quite the impression. Ask the general public in America if they know WB. I doubt it. The Britney fandom and the gay community knows it obviously, but this is a GH medley for a wide audience.

WB is really well known in America. It was a club staple in 2013-2014. I'd say it's just as remembered as 'TTWE'. Vegas is a much talked about topic in the states and the song goes hand in hand with that. Not to mention it's her last big hit she has released. Add to the fact it is seen as the return of old school danceney. Also it has sold over a million copies in the USA, not including streaming. |

I mean at the end of the day I think we'd all be very happy if Britney did sing live but this discussion did originate from someone saying she wasn't really a performer (or w/e) because she wasn't singing live and the point to take home is that you really don't need to be singing live to be a performer.
Anyone who says they have no desire at all for Britney to sing live is probably lying to themselves but it is unlikely she'll do both that and dancing and my preference would personally be dancing given the music she makes. Even flawless vocals wouldn't be preferable to a great routine. |

I mean she's done the show in Vegas nearly three years and barely sung a note. Why would she change that for a performance? I'm just happy its not pre-recorded this yearbb

You're making out like i'm not a fan of hers when I actually am, but at the end of the day, she is a singer who makes no effort at all to even attept to sing her own songs at concerts or promotional shows. She can surely tone down part of her routines to show she actually is capable of it then ramp it back up again. Also, your (and most other stans here) general attitude when it comes to anyone not blowing smoke up her arse is really pathetic, learn to accept criticism, even if you've heard it before, she's done nothing to prove the critics wrong about her singing. |

The problem that you have with this argument is that you concerned yourself with what people are 'willing to accept from her'. Had you said that you weren't happy with it, you'd have every right to say so. But you said it was sad that we were willing to accept it, when it really has nothing to do with you. And she doesn't want to or have to prove the critics wrong. The reason she's done nothing to prove it is because they know she can't do it live. Umi, I'm not lying to myself when I say that I personally wouldn't want her to attempt any part of it live. It would be a mess and the press would drag her for it. She has never been known for her live vocals, what's there to prove 18 years later? This post has been edited by Scherz: 21st May 2016, 11:12 AM |

Do you really think Britney's songs were made to be sung live?
People who criticized her in her hay day were f***ing idiots. She started off singing live but you could tell it restricted her dancing. So she had to compromise and she chose the right one for herself. She is a recording artist through and through. It must be difficult to sing in her pop voice, especially when you factor in how much damage it's likely undergone with her lifestyle choices and poor technique. |
