fracas

Indeed. I read it at TMZ, so it must be true, right? TMZ has announced the end of Britney’s career in this RIP post.  Her incredibly bad performance at the MTV VMA’s has got the entertainment world talking… and mocking. AP Music Writer Nekesa Mumbi Moody wrote:

“As in most train wrecks, it was hard to focus on just one thing as the Britney Spears disaster unfolded on MTV’s Video Music Awards. There was just so much that went wrong.Out-of-synch lip-synching. Lethargic movements that seemed choreographed by a dance instructor for a nursing home. The paunch in place of Spears’ once-taut belly. At times she just stopped singing, as if even she knew nothing could save her performance.”

Prior to that, and right out of the starting gate, VMA Host Sarah Silverman mocked Spears after her performance. Silverman is quoted as saying:

“Wasn’t that incredible? Britney Spears, everyone. Wow. She is amazing. She is 25-years-old and she’s already accomplished everything she’s going to accomplish in her life. It’s mind blowing.”

Those of you who didn’t watch the show, please feel free to watch the youtube clip of her performance for yourself. It is painful. I don’t think she deserves so much criticism for her physical appearance. Truly, she doesn’t look as bad as people are saying, but the performance was really bad.

She’s being flogged with the proverbial wet noodle for not being prepared.

Fracas wonders if it isn’t so much that, as maybe she was under the influence of something? At times like the little stumble at the beginning she seems even unsteady on her feet. Later, she is helped down one level by male dancers. It appears that she actually needs the help down, not just that it’s part of the choreography.

And then there’s the whole lip synch issue. It appears to be a case of it.

Sorry Brit. I’m behind you on the, “Don’t make fun of my body, I still look better than tons of people who’ve had two kids.” Making fun of womens’ bodies is something I don’t think is a very intelligent thing to do. It’s not the main problem with her performance so to pick at her when she still looks better than the average person, is just cat crap.

But Brit… honey. You know I’ve defended you before, but I just can’t back you up on the whole, “I might’ve been flying high on something for that show.” I hope that wasn’t the case, but if not… girl, you got some ’splainin to do.

So perhaps, like TMZ suggests, Britney will have to seek a nice resting place for her career? I don’t know. Maybe all she has to do is leak some totally naked photos, like Vanessa Hudgens. I mean, I know there’s all those crotch shots out there, but something tells me if she leaked a full on look-at-me-ma-no-clothes photo, she’d be rolling in the googles once again.

If not, well then, her adoring and loyal fans will just have to set up a trust fund for her.

And she’ll need your cash.

I’m sure you don’t mind.
