Britney fallout continues - Sept 12 2007
As the fallout continues after Britney’s lacklustre performance at the VMAs, the star has been spotted boarding a plane out of Las Vegas, reportedly looking ’distraught’ and ’in tears’.

And the 25-year-old was snapped getting out of her car in the city without any underwear again, according to Hollywood Extra.

Meanwhile the US rumour mill has continued to go into overdrive following the star’s comeback failure, with The New York Post claiming she refused to do the more complicated dance numbers, which caused her worried dancers to ask friends "to pray for them".

The paper also blames the fiasco on some backstage boozing, with the pop princess tossing back margaritas after showing up late to rehearsals the day before.

It all apparently went wrong for Britney in the hair and wardrobe department too, with celeb hairstylist Ken Paves parting ways with the star just before the show.

He told Extra that while he went to the Palms Casino Resort, he "made the professional decision not to do her hair for the VMAs".

That left Britney doing her own coiffure, before reportedly refusing to wear her stylist’s choice of clothing and instead dressing herself in black sparkly bra and pants set.


Britney just ’plain nervous’ - Sept 12 2007
Britney Spears’s lacklustre performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas has apparently been put down to nerves.

With everything from the star’s outfit to her weight being criticised, People.com reports that the troubled singer merely struggled to cope with all the pressure.

"Britney was supposed to wear a matching corset that she opted out of wearing at the last minute," a source told the website.

"She was just plain nervous because of all the hype and she’s embarrassed."

"She was extremely nervous," another source agreed.

"It’s been a while since she’s done this, and she was performing in front of all her peers, on live TV. She looked disappointed backstage after the performance."

The insider said Brit shone in rehearsals.

"People who were at rehearsal saw something else. It was good. It really was."

Others speculated that Britney’s failure to live up to expectations was due to a couple of rather late nights while she was in Vegas, while others reported that she was wobbling on a broken stiletto heel during her performance.


Bleary Britney Flops at VMAs - Sept 10 2007
An out-of-shape, out-of-touch Britney Spears has delivered what was destined to be the most talked about performance of the MTV Video Music Awards -- but for all the wrong reasons.

Kicking off the show with her new single, Gimme More, Britney looked bleary and unprepared, much like her recent tabloid exploits on the streets of Los Angeles.

Even the celebrity-studded audience seemed bewildered. 50 Cent looked at the pop princess with a confused expression; Diddy, her new best friend, was expressionless.

The VMAs was hoping to reinvent itself after suffering poor reviews and a decline in ratings over the last few years.

MTV moved the show to Las Vegas’ Palms Casino, shortened the show from three hours to two, and changed the show’s set-up to focus more on performances than awards.

To that end, Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, Kanye West, Fall Out Boy and the Foo Fighters were each hosting four separate suite parties, where much of the show’s performances would be held.
