>> LATEST: Troubled pop star Britney Spears broke down in tears after her
>> disastrous opening performance at the MTV Awards, it has been claimed,
>> following a string of problems leading up to the show.
>>
>>
>>
>> According to a report by columnist Richard Johnson in the New York Times,
>> Britney's "comeback" performance of her new single Gimme More at the MTV
>> Video Music Awards on Sunday night was plagued by drama.
>>
>> Britney has been rocked by criticism since the show, with reviewers
>> saying she was unfit, overweight, unprepared, out of time with her
>> dancers, lacking charisma and couldn't even mime properly.
>>
>> The Times report said there were multiple problems in the build-up to the
>> performance. Britney refused to wear MTV's clothes, didn't rehearse
>> properly and had been drinking frozen margaritas just before going on
>> stage, the paper alleged.
>>
>> "MTV wanted her to wear a corset outfit," a source told the paper. "It
>> would have looked great and covered a lot of things up, but she hated it
>> and didn't think it was sexy enough."
>>
>> Britney also didn't rehease properly, and her team of dancers wrote off
>> the more complicated moves to choose simpler routines.
>>
>> "She didn't even get to Las Vegas until 4.30pm," the newspaper's source
>> said.
>>
>> "It was ridiculous ... The production people at MTV were freaking out ...
>> Nobody can tell Britney what to do anymore. No one can control her. She
>> is a mess."
>>
>> After the performance Britney allegedly broke down in tears, but consoled
>> herself by partying till 3am. She was later photographed by paparazzi
>> without underwear on.
>>
>> Others reports suggested Britney had a fight with her hair stylist just
>> hours before the show.
>>
>> Entertainment wire Bang! Showbiz suggested the Toxic singer had flown the
>> hairdresser from Los Angeles to Las Vegas to tend to her locks for a
>> whopping $US10,000.
>>
>> After a disagreement about whether her hair should be blonde or brunette
>> for the performance - during which Britney allegedly shouted "It's my
>> money and I'll do what I want" - the furious stylist cut up all the hair
>> extensions Britney was planning to wear for the show.
>>
>> Another source claimed one of Britney's stiletto heels broke during the
>> performance, meaning she could not gyrate properly.
>>
>>
>
> They need to just pick a lie and stick with it.
You know what I don't understand? I know Britney is quite obviously an
addle-brained, drug addict now, but doesn't the girl have ANY friends in the
industry left? Hell, I know homeless drunks with more pals...when Sarah
Silverman made that shitty remark about Britney's two cute "mistakes", you'd
have thought SOMEONE there would have made a comment then, or even later on
in the show about her going waaaaaaaay too far. Screw with Britney all you
want, but insulting two innocent babies who'll have enough problems
already...that's just WRONG. Somebody respected there (like Justin
Timberlake, her ex) could have said something like, "No matter what the
circumstances, children are never mistakes, they're blessings..." or
something similar. It's expected no one would stand up in support of the
train wreck that was once Britney Spears, but you'd think someone would
defend her kids at least...If I was in her shoes, that would have sent me
over the deep end.
