MTV Mobile also will carry a live simulcast of the show, a first ever for an awards show.

For more about Spears at the VMAs, MTV.com will have exclusive details about her performance, as well as a look back at her history at the VMAs. The star-packed event will also feature one night only performances by Kanye West, Fall Out Boy, Chris Brown, Foo Fighters, Rihanna, Common, Nelly Furtado, Gym Class Heroes, Akon and Soulja Boy, T-Pain, Cee-Lo, Daniel Merriweather, Lil’ Wayne, Alicia Keys, T.I., Adam Levine, Mastadon, and Serj from System of A Down.

This year, Timbaland will also find himself working overtime as the official Maestro of the VMAs, responsible for creating several show-stopping and unexpected artist collaborations.

    She really needs to grow up and realize that her life is not just about her anymore.. Maybe she should be worrying about her poor children rather than trying to prove that shes still got what is takes. No One Cares! Your A mom now Grow the hell up! Move on with your life!

    206

    W*O*W* I just realized how she must have felt all this time. I'm not sure what each of us projects onto her, positive or negative, but she's so young and has done so much –how could she possibly handle so much that has happened in her life? I'm older than her, and my life is not nearly as complicated as hers and I fall apart sometimes. There a lot of mothers her age that have gone through nasty divorces from losers, but how many are also international superstars? DAMN! Let the girl have her zits, her dark circles and her cellulite if she wants to. She's earned them! What the hell is wrong with that? Don't some of us (at least) look like week-old crap right now, hiding in our homes, catching up on her latest news? (I know I am….. : ) )

    207

    Britney you managed to build all this mess up with your, zit faced, bitten fingernailed, fat bellied, celluloited legs, celluloited bare assed, vagina showing, ugly stank smellin booted, non self-respectin, and frog smokin croakin x singer that you are.

    You've managed to only give us something to LAUGH ABOUT and at, BEHIND YOUR BACK! Using MAGIC isn't going to change anything it is what it is, MAGIC not real.

    BREAK A LEG BRITNEY, MAKE THAT TWO!!!!!!!

    An album is keeping your word, interviews, performances and not where you pretend to perform or they will eat you alive!!! The OK debacle will feel like a walk in the park compared to what will come raining down on you. We've seen and heard nothin but trash.

    Re: Ooba Gooba – Did i even mention that she is talented? you should put some time reading before getting all edged up! But if you would like to know my opinion about her you could just ask instead of guessing. Britney has not got the voice, she only have a Low weak but cute voice that is pleasent to listen to, specially the low tempo songs. and it doesnt mean if a singer who dont have a voice like Aretha Frankling o´r Whitney or like many other great voices it doesnt mean that she cant sing or terrible, its not all about hitting the hight notes. She is a nice eye candy even thought some captures of here arent pleasent but we all know how we can look hot on some pictures and ugly on others, its only the choice of what you want to choice to view! and i am saying shes lookin cute based on live video captures where no photoshop is used. she have a great energy while preforming and thats she is all about :

  10. Me says – reply to this


    210

    You are all just jealous!!! She is hot mom with 2 kids, richer than any of us will ever be & for god sakes she is only human!!!! I am sure 90% of you who have talked shit are ghetto ass losers!!!

  11. Wondering... says – reply to this


    211

    PREFORMING…she is a PREFORMER and thats what she does, she entertain people who enjoys whaching her! everything is just so good together, videos, compuser, dance ….. and yes alot of people comes up with the all the things she have to do and she "just" do as told BUT take all of here preformences and videos and mentally replace just her with let say Avril Lavigne or celine dion!!!! they are both great artist but they couldn't replace her. when she preform she nails it! BUT this is MY opinion and what i think about HER. she doesnt have to be that to you ofcourse.

    218

    Her head looks photoshopped onto her body in that pic. I know its not, but man, she kinda reminds me of Gollum from Lord of the Rings in the way that her body posture is so cracked out. Only with a long blonde cheap ass wig on too.

    220

    She brought all the negativity on herself by her own actions. Britney shouldn't be displaying her vagina, butt crack, or bare boobs, on a daily basis. I have no sympathy for a mother who chooses to do this.

    Would your family approve of the actions? I think of her boys and the future. Grow the hell up Britney. Any pressure your under you put on yourself.

    Re: Ooba Gooba – I am not defendig her! she is old enough to defend her self from what ever she have to defend her self from! i am more intrested in why your so interested about her personal life? why do you even bother? the question is do you like her as an artist or not? if yes, good for you. If no, why even care?

    All the Criss Angel mirrors, dancing, and producing magic can't hide the most important thing: Britney Spears cannot sing. Period. End of story. I am over these quasi-talented media-manipulation experts. I want real talent, real singing.

    229

    I seriously think she has a good chance on putting on a good opening act. After all, she has been a great artist and performer. Why is everyone so obsessed with seeing Britney fail? Wouldnt you want the best for her if you were a true fan? Although she has gone a little crazy, a good act and positive media portrayal is the only way she can get out of that deep hole she's dug herself.

  30. tiffe says – reply to this


    230

    oh my god she is going to be awesome! that is the only reason I am going to watch!!!!! Britney is going to rock that performance and show all of the haters out there that she still is the queen of pop!

  31. Ashley says – reply to this


    231

    Britney..as much as all you say you hate her..eventhough you care about her enough to put up posts about her stories…She's a great performer. She always has been, she doesn't have the best voice, but it works for her and her music, ands he awsome at dancing, and getting the crowd moving. I'm rooting for Britney! LOVE YOU!

  32. Britney's Queef says – reply to this


    232

    I hope she queefs onstage and squirts poon-juice all over, then the CD skips and she fucks up her lip-synch, then her cheap weave falls off, then she slips on her poon-juice and falls on her big jiggly cottage-cheese ass. Then everybody points and laughs as her bare tore-up vadge hangs out her dress, then they start vomiting and running away. Then she queefs again, then farts, then says "Y'aaallllll…." then queefs, then runs away. The end.

  33. Tory says – reply to this


    233

    Please just write one artical that she will be an up and coming mom. I could care less if she sells albums again. That should be the least concerning thing to her too. She needs to be worried about being a good mom and keeping her kids.

    Recess is over. Get your ass back to class. And clap out those damn erasers.

    I'm sure she will remind us while we need Britney Spears at the MTV VMAs !

    There will be one green eyed BITCH that can't rap at home… ready to die becasue he can't be her or suck her fame or fanbase ! Fedex make sure you male friend holds you tight. Ha ha !

    I'm sure parents will cry and moan over the "It's Britney Bitch", but she is no longer 16, so they are going to have to get over it.

    So at any point if the show stars to suck.. I can turn it off after seeing Britney.

    Why the fuck did she have fucking kids if she never spends any time with them. The only place we've seen her take them is on a shitty boat ride. She is pathetic and I will not be tuning in.

  52. Louisana Loser says – reply to this


    252

    They only booked her to juice up the ratings….not because she's talented. It only feeds the media frenzy she creates about herself due to insecurity. Britney should be spending more quality time with her boys taking care of them and their needs–not pushing her tits and ass all over the mags and tube.

    All you haters need to stop hiding and recognize that you know and love all her songs; have seen all her videos; and watched every other vma for shows just like this. She's a wreck and a complete performance in every part of her life, but one that has entertained us for years. So let this woman do her thing and hit us one more time!

    It won't be a trainwreck with half the production team working on it. But, it won't help her career. Image is everything - and she needs to get her life in order and get some "street cred" by REALLY singing. Ask Madonna (for the good) and Michael Jackson (for the bad) on image.

Also, that song "Bad Girl" by Madonna totally shows that Britney knows that the reason she's being so self-destructive is because she still loves J.T. and can't get over him.
