Don't call it a comeback - Britney Spears is going to open the 2007 VMAs! MTV themselves just dropped a press release confirming our scoop - Brit's going to be kicking things off on Sunday with a performance of "Gimme More".
Further details:
- Fans can expect to see the whole package from Britney - singing, dancing, the whole nine yards! "Fans that are familiar with her performance on previous VMAs will not be disappointed," VMA producer Jesse Ignjatovic is quoted as saying.
- MTV is backing Britney %100 - Ignjatovic couldn't be more fulsome in his praise of Britney, declaring confidently that "she'll kill it" and that "[t]here's no one better."
- He's also quick to highlight the history between the network and the star, reminding everyone of how gloriously received some of Spears' performances at prior ceremonies have been
- Most of all, though- Britney's completely into this! Ignjatovic points out that right from the start, Brit was "into it and excited to do it". And as we all know, only the hottest of hotness can come from a motivated Brit!
The network stayed pretty tight-lipped about other subjects (including the extent of Criss Angel's participation, mentioning only that the two had been seen around Vegas together and that "unsubstantiated speculation" about their relationship exists), but we'll deal with that - we're just happy to hear the news made official!
Wonder if she'll bring her snake!
