New Delhi: An out-of-shape and out-of-touch Britney Spears delivered what turned out to be the most talked about performance of the MTV Video Music Awards.
Kicking off the show with her new single, Gimme More, Spears looked bleary and unprepared, much like her recent tabloid exploits on the streets of Los Angeles.
She walked through her dance moves with little enthusiasm and disappointed fans pointed out her out-of-sync lip movements, lethargic moves and a very visible paunch.
Even the celebrity-studded audience seemed bewildered. 50 Cent looked at Spears with a confused expression; Diddy, her new best friend, was expressionless.
But the single Gimme More is off to a great start in the Top 40, says Sean Ross of Edison Research, which tracks radio play.
“A great VMA performance would have probably closed the deal for her, but she's still got until Thanksgiving to do other good performances and to release a strong album with other hits on it,” Ross told AP.
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.
Other performers at the star-studded event were Justin Timberlake, Timbaland, Kanye West, Linkin Park, Rihanna and Alicia Keyes.
Nevertheless, it seems it’s still too early to write an obituary of Spears' career.
