Criss Angel @ VMAs 2007

Criss Angel @ VMAs 2007

One man who has some explaining to do: Criss Angel. Did the magic man infuse any magic into Britney’s comeback performance at the VMAs? (If you missed it, watch Britney’s VMAs performance here).

Even the Associated Press rips into Brit’s performance:

“Somewhere, Kevin Federline is laughing.

An out-of-shape, out-of-touch Britney Spears 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 Sunday night with her new single, “Gimme More,” Spears looked bleary and unprepared — much like her recent tabloid exploits on the streets of Los Angeles.

She lazily walked through her dance moves with little enthusiasm. It appeared she had forgotten the entire art of lip-synching; and, perhaps most unforgivable given her once taut frame, she looked embarrassingly out of shape.

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

Some comeback.”

Hey, at least she was wearing underwear.

Really? I did not know that. If I was Britney and I hear Sarah Silverman making jokes about my baby, I would be upset too and wouldn’t want to perform. What the hell is wrong with Sarah Silverman, seriously.

did she say that ?

ok Im not really a brit fan… but my god. Sarah Silverman… what a HORRIBLE thing to do. f off, what a low class move - shown all over the world… and the babies when they grow up and see/hear that ???

ohh my she looked so bad

Thanks for the info, now I know why Britney was so undiscourage and couldn’t care less about her performance. Sarah Silverman is a horrible person! She should know better since she is a comedian. Never attack a person’s kids!

Dumbass Sarah said the kids look as cute as the “hairless ******” they came out of and then she did her lips in a way that looked like a ****** pretending to be the kids.

Then she said trhe kids were a mistake.

I am not a Britney fan and I did not like the performance but Sarah should be banned. What a mean, ugly idiot she is!

well yanno what, i think i might have been tempted to pull a kid rock on silverman’s ass right there and then. THAT would have been a great opening. damn, britney has restraint. … lol.

SO CRISS BUNKED OUT ON HER OR WHAT? WASN’T HE SUPPOSED TO BE A PART OF THIS PERFORMANCE? MAYBE SHE DID A ****** JOB BECAUSE SHE FELT BETRAYED? THERE IS MORE TO THIS THAN WE SEE. I COULD HARDLY IMAGINE AFTER ALL THE WONDERFUL PERFORMANCES SHE’S DONE, SHE’D **** ON THIS ONE. I THINK CRISS HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT..

OMG! Those comments about babies and ******! That was so low!

REAL REASON BRIT DIDN’T DELIVER:

Britney threatened to ditch her VMA performance just minutes before she took the stage. Want to know why? Britney overheard Sarah Silverman rehearsing her monologue in which she calls Britney’s babies mistakes and takes jab after jab at Britney.

Britney made it very clear with MTV that Sarah was NOT allowed to talk about her kids, and MTV agreed. That big-mouthed ***** said it anyway.

Sam Lufti was overheard backstage screaming at Sarah Silverman because of her outrageous remarks saying: “Sarah Silverman is a seriously unprofessional person to make fun of infants to get a laugh. Making fun of kids is not condonable,” and that “she should have picked on someone her own size.”

Perhaps this why Britney looked upset during her performance.

While it is Silverman’s job to get a laugh, it should not be at the expense of little babies. Your career must be hurting if you have to turn to bashing infants in order to gain a laugh. You’ll get what’s yours.

Nobody was laughing when Sarah Silverman’s make those jokes about Britney’s children. They were booing her. I feel so sorry for Britney. She was looking forward to deliver an awesome performance but because of this comedian bi***tch, Britney couldn’t deliver. You can tell she was upset and very discourage.

Oh, shut the F Up!!! What kind of excuse was that anyway?? She is a PROFESSIONAL!!! She knows better. What better way to make Sarah Silverman look stupid than knocking the performance out of the park!!! Come on, acting like an idiot like that is only giving her, and everybody else just cause to call her what she is… a lazy, over the hill, former pop wonder, that is overweight, and past her prime!!!

i cant get over her doing that. my god.

You know what was sad, that Justin saw his once beautiful ex doing that! Poor Brit…

IN reply to #26 - hahahah love it!

Give her time, people. She’ll get there.

People! Sarah didn’t say those mean things until after the ‘performance’ so that’s not why Brit sucked!

Again, correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Sarah make her comments AFTER her ghetto performance? Unless she is some kind of psychic, how was she to know what she was going to say??? We need to stop making excuses for such FOOLISHNESS!!!!

sarah’s one of the funniest biishes on the planet.

guess who @ 09/10/2007 at 1:54 am

Did Sarah make Britney almost fall over 3 times or forget how to lipsynch? Besides, Sarah said what she said AFTER Britney screwed up her performance.

Please Brit fans, stop making excuses for someone who failed to rehearse adequately in favor of partying for 3 days. Brit’s bad performance is Brit’s fault alone.

It was difficult to watch the performance. No enthousiam, and no pride left at all. I wonder why she set herself up for failure. I do not understand her at all. She use to have better creative judgement, and energy. If she had nailed the lip singing and had been more explosive and energetic with the dance choreography, it could have been amazing.
I found Chris Brown’s performance energetic, but he lip sang too. So I felt I was watching a very good “so you think you can dance” number. I can’t wait to watch another performance.
As for Brit…Justin perhaps was trying to ligthen the pressure by saying that he too felt he was getting old…

I will refrain from saying mean things because I feel sorry for her eventhough I am not a fan.

That said, I agree with those who can see that this is a girl whose camp let her become superfamous on lack of talent, no skinging skills and actually no dancing skills.

Now that she is older and not into the little doll image, there is nothing left. Britney was never a good singer - nor was she ever a good dancer - she just learned dance moves.

She is hurting right now and her performance is a result of it. I hope someone takes care of her and holds her and loves her. She needs that. At least for her kids, I hope she will be ok.

This must be very hard for her.

Sarah Silverman: ugly cow should be banned from TV!

Totally agree with Team Lara Croft, Sarah Silverman IS an ugly cow. I was completely shocked and wasn’t at all laughing when those comments were being said. The crowd was quiet as well, knowing very well that Sarah has cross the line. I wish I was there so I could throw something at the comedian bit***ch.

Sarah Silverman is RIGHT ON…she just said what EVERYBODY is thinking….

SHATNEY SUCKS!!!

Sarah would have crossed the line if she had made fun of the kids for looking retarded…shitney said it herself…she loves her boo boos…

suck it up britney chunkettes!

The reason Criss Angel didn’t perform with her is because “insurance reasons” illuminated.com said that MTV turned them away @ the last minute. She also found out about the comments made about her kids from comedian Sarah Silverman right before she took the stage… they said she was PISSED.
