Don’t call it a comeback.
I’m not really sure if chunky Britney Spears’ triumphant return to the stage at the VMA Awards qualifies as a comeback. She’s been in the news too much. Not for good reasons, but, still we’ve seen a lot of her ass. However, not quite as much as in this performance, but hey… she had to do something to distract from the part that this wasn’t exactly a live live performance.
She kind of got the cold shoulder from her peers, though. Not that I’m a fan (I wore one of those “Spear Britney” t-shirts until one day it just refuse to get out of the laundry basket), but they could’ve been a little bit nicer. To be honest, most of them suck too.
It’s not like she was the only one in the room that had to battle through substance abuse problems. Or the only one who can’t sing. I’m only lukewarm on the track and the performance, but I have to say, it is very nice to see her take this big step in getting her career back on track and it’s very cool of MTV to play a role in that.
