KT Update-VMA Musings

I have to make a confession. I didn't get to watch the VMA's. My hotel in San Fran did not give me my MTV & I was left without the show. I was upset for 5.3 seconds, but then my wonderful husband called me to give me the play by play of the Britney Comeback Performance! I have to say, I did get a little butterfly in my belly. Despite what's gone on in her life, Brit has always been an amazing performer & been able to BRING it to the VMA's. I still say that the Oops performance was the best of any VMA ever. So, you can imagine my surprise when Jay was silent during the performance. "Is anything exciting going on?" "No." "Is there any effects?" "No" "Is the dancing good?" "Ummm, she's not really dancing. She's kinda lip synching & walking around." "oh"

That's pretty much it in a nutshell. Then I logged on to my trusty Perez Hilton site & he said it sucked! What happened to Criss Angel? The big comeback performance?

I saw some snippets on the Today Show (I love how real news covers Brit) and wow, I'm so glad I didn't watch it live. I suppose some small part of me was hoping that Brit would return to form and make all of us pay for leaving her, but no, she just fell further down the "has been" hole. Her performance was lackluster, she looked completely drugged, there was absolutely no trace of the old briteny that I knew & loved. For me, this is the final straw. I'm kind of insulted actually. It is like she didn't have the decency to come to work prepared & she wasted every one's time. Again, I'm glad I missed it. If or when Jive releases her new record I won't be buying it, no matter how catchy the producer makes the songs.

Oh & don't believe the Spears camp spin that Britney was distraught before her performance because she found out that Sarah Silverman was going to talk about her kids. Number 1, you are a professional, go out there and dance your ass off and no one will care what silverman says and 2, Silverman's camp is saying that no one, not even MTV, knew what she was going to say before she hit the stage.

Finally, I heard that Kid Rock & Tommy Lee got into a brawl at the show. That's awesome. I wish they'd show that. Probably the best part of the show. If I actually watch the show when I go home on Wednesday I'll post my thoughts. In the meantime you should check out VH1 on Tuesday night for Perez Hilton's wrap up of the VMA's (CAN'T WAIT!!!)

So, did you watch the VMA's? What were your thoughts?
