August 29, 201113 yr Where can I see this "tribute" and other such stuff, since the links I see in here are no longer working? :(
August 29, 201113 yr I've seen it now. I agree that Katy Perry/Gaga/Rihanna singing her choons would've been MAJAH but the dancing Britneys were still pretty good. Considering the ad for the tribute and all that though, perhaps a BIT more effort could've been put in :lol: GaGa as her alter-ego was really odd - Britney look genuinely terrified.
August 29, 201113 yr I'm liking that she's being slowly more like herself rather than Robo-Brit we've had for the last few years.
August 29, 201113 yr I'm liking that she's being slowly more like herself rather than Robo-Brit we've had for the last few years. I totally agree. She looks genuinely happy and giddy here, still really nervous though. Which is so weird because on tour she is not nervous at all. I guess it's different when it's a stadium full of fans. Britney talks about the VMA's Spears tells MTV News her onstage smooch with Lady Gaga's Jo Calderone wasn't planned Britney Spears played it humble during her Video Music Awards tribute -- using her time onstage to shine the spotlight on her fellow performer, Beyoncé -- not an easy feat to accomplish in between nabbing the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award and getting kissed by Lady Gaga's male alter ego Jo Calderone. When MTV News caught up with Spears minutes after stepping offstage, she stayed humble, calling the tribute "an honor" and once again deflecting the spotlight. "It was really crazy. I had no idea what to expect," Spears said. "The kids were amazing and so entertaining, and it was a really fun night. It was really cool. I was like, 'Wow, that's really sweet!' "I loved the little girl in the 'Slave' outfit," she continued. "She was just so tiny and she delivered and she had such a great performance. ... They were all so great, and you could tell they worked really hard." And Spears didn't stop there either. For an artist who's won more than her fare share of VMAs in her career, she was blown away by Sunday night's Best Pop Video triumph. "Every year ... just to come here is such an honor, you never get used to it," she smiled. "But tonight means so much to me." In a night full of high-water moments, it was her tribute smooch from Gaga -- er, Calderone -- that she gushed about backstage. Especially because she said the kiss was totally unplanned. "She was in full character!" Spears said. "We just got onstage and we just kind of felt it out; we didn't know what was going on, so it was interesting!"

August 29, 201113 yr Oh and the performance featured grown woman from little kids to show "Britney's widespread influence". Okay. I'm sorry but 10 year olds don't need to where the 'Slave 4 U' VMA costume.
August 29, 201113 yr The performance was BORING, but I thought Britney was sweet in her acceptance speech. GaGa's a shit actress though, that accent was awful :mellow:
August 29, 201113 yr Oh I might be alone then, but I loved the tribute and I loved GaGa's speech, rofl. GaGa seemed effing hilarious through the whole show and Britney was beyond sweet and humble, which is what I mainly love about her besides the music and stage presence. I also loved how shocked she was about winning Best Pop Video, as if she were an amateur or something. I bet she wanted ADELE to win it or something. Overall she seemed to enjoy the show a lot and the performances as well. Especially the GaGa and ADELE ones (cameras filmed her from time to time during the show). I'm pretty satisfied with the awards overall, people who I wanted to win, won. And Britney added two more VMAs (Best Pop and Michael Jackson's Video Vanguard Award) to her previous four VMAs. Now she has: Best Female Video - Piece Of Me (2008) Best Pop Video - Piece Of Me (2008) Video Of The Year - Piece Of Me (2008) Best Pop Video - Womanizer (2009) Best Pop Video - Till The World Ends (2011) Michael Jackson's Video Vanguard Award (2011) Actually, I think they should rename Best Pop Video to Britney Spears' Best Pop Video Award now :lol:
August 29, 201113 yr Really? I thought that was the most comfortable Britney has looked this era. It was. She look terrified of GaGa, not of the general situation.
August 30, 201113 yr She really was robbed in pre-2008 VMA's... 2000 VMA's - Oops I Did It Again, 2002 VMA's - I'm A Slave 4 U, 2004 VMA's - Toxic, 2005 VMA's - My Prerogative, all 4 of these should've won awards those years.
