Seacrest Sez: Britney Not Performing At VMAs!

BSpearsDanc082408_02_X17.jpgFor weeks, we've been wondering whether Britney Spears might be working on a top-secret, super-special performance at the upcoming VMAs - until we tuned in to Ryan Seacrest's radio show a few hours ago!

Earlier this morning, Seacrest revealed that Britney will not be performing at the awards show, scheduled for Sunday, September 7th. Aww - at least she's still going to appear!

Of course, we caught Britney out rehearsing just yesterday afternoon. If she's not getting ready for the VMAs, what could she be working on? The new album, perhaps? Or might Britney and Ryan be conspiring to fake out Brit's fans?

Guess we'll have to tune in to the VMAs to find out!



What do you think - will Britney perform?

seems that she is seeking wealthy men on
__MatchWewalthy.c o m __, where the wealthy and the beauty mingle. Is she looking for a serious relationship or just for fun? who knows!

Thank you JESUS!

AMEN! She doesn't look like she's in any shape to be performing ANYWHERE, let alone the VMA's. She was a total laughing stock last year when she appeared and shouldn't attempt it again. She needs to go into hibernation until (if?) she gets well.

haters are the real laughing stocks.

The VMA's aren't worth watching,add this loser and the show only gets worse.
Real performances along with true artist are definitely a thing of the past.

4 the moment is the best, wte, Brit's amazin' and the best
Go Brit that this year begin a new and better life 4 you

...I'm glad to hear she won't be performing.

If you're going to do something, you might as well do it right.

I'd love to see Brit do what Madonna has done - voice lessons, learning guitar...improving her craft as time goes by...That is, if you want to call what she does a "craft." But you catch my drift.

Brit might as well take her time and take the stage if and when she's ready. No need to rush.

Its ok ,take your time Britney,we will wait when your ready,for now your happy and healthy...cant wait for new album...we love you....

"Rehearsing", never performing. No interviews. No official public appearances. Never talking to the photogs that follow her around all the time. No publicist. No manager.

Does this sound like a celebrity with a career? I think she is still a long way from back to normal.

The VMAs this year are going to look like the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards they will have good rating but is Mtv a show for the under 12 crowd???And about Britney performing its not fair to the other artists she as perform more than anyone.

Thanks Britney for having removed all your tattoos.
Thanks Britney for having stopped smoking.
Thanks Britney....

I'm glad that the talentless fat skank is not performing. Trainwrecks do attract lots of viewers but obviously the pathetic loser is just too unreliable. I wonder how much her keepers had to pay so she got included into some laughable nomination lists ...

I see that the crazy trashy unwashed "singer" is back to running around without a bra. What next?

Shaving her fugly head again?
Sleeping with another pap?
Another hit and run?

It's a sad country if such a person can be called a celebrity.

Britney will perform...this is a publicity stunt to generate interest and stop speculation so the performance will be a "surprise", or at least thats my opinion!

"nobody is gonna watch if britney doesn't perform!"

Yeah, right. VMAs only exist thanks to this clueless incompetent retard and how did they ever manage to take place before the talentless slut decided to perform ..., sorry, I meant, to show her fat ass and stand around like a polar bear in coma. Make that sea cow.

I guess each and every year people only tuned in because they hoped Tardo would perform. And when she didn't, they performed mass suicides in tens of thousands ...

Could her hands be any fuglier? I don't think so.

Their extreme unattractiveness os matched only fy the repulsiveness of her horrible weave.

What did Cheetos ever do to deserve Britney Spears?
Products get unwanted endorsements. 'Rogue brand ambassadors' aren't paid for their love and can inadvertently damage a company's image
MISTY HARRIS, Canwest News Service
Published: 14 hours ago

Ever since Britney Spears began her downward spiral, the singer's preferred junk food has come to represent the very worst aspects of her public image: common, messy and cheesy. So it seems curious that in her first major interview in two years, Spears would play up the connection between herself and Cheetos by being photographed for OK magazine's current issue with an open bag of the fluorescent food nearby.

Posted by: Anonymous


The troubled star's frequent unsolicited endorsements of the snack is contributing to growing concern over "rogue brand ambassadors," described by the Wall Street Journal as celebrities who are "genuinely, publicly devoted to a product or service, even if (they don't) quite embody the values that the brand's managers may be trying to convey."
From family companies endorsed by Playboy models to politicians who attract celebrity support from the wrong side of the law, experts say no brand is safe from the marketing world's version of unrequited love.

"There isn't an official association, and people recognize that," says Melissa St. James, a leading expert on celebrity endorsement. "But it certainly could have a very subliminal effect. ... It could degrade the brand."

Posted by: Anonymous


Earlier this year, Cheetos launched a massive multi-platform campaign to rebrand their mascot as a hip, edgy and dangerously suave pop icon - in other words, everything that Spears is not. But the fact remains the troubled chanteuse is so synonymous with the product that her family crest might well bear a bag of cheese puffs.

This bears out on Google, where a search for "Cheetos" and "Britney Spears" returns more than three times as many results as a search pairing the brand with its official spokescat.

Either way MTV wins. If she appears, then people might watch to see if she performs so that they can laugh their asses off again - I Tivo'd it, and died laughing (along with Rihanna).

She's a freak show.

Posted by: Anonymous


That's a funny as hell article! So not even Cheetos wants her image tied into their product? That certainly says a lot about the real image that she projects and one that not even her few fans and her massive PR machine can cover up! Even MTV sounds like it is smart enough to just use her as stunt casting, but not foolish enough to let her wreck another segment with her feeble attempts to wobble wobble stumble dance and forget the words while lip syncing to the music someone else doctored her voice into! Now she's reduced to petty breadcrumb hand outs from people who pity and mock her! Awesome! Simply AWESOME!!!

OK! Magazine Recycles 2003 Photo For Britney's Weight Loss Cover
Huffington Post
Danny Shea
April 2, 2008 02:41 PM

This week's OK! Magazine cover features a photograph of Britney Spears with the headline, "Britney Lost 15 Lbs in Just 4 Weeks!" and a subhead, "Back to her old body with the miracle food that sheds weight fast."

Back to her old body, indeed. The image OK! uses to show Britney's transformation is actually from a 2003 photo shoot for Glamour's Women of the Year issue.

With rave reviews of her guest spot on "How I Met Your Mother," Britney does actually show signs of a comeback and a return to her old star self. But unfortunately, OK!'s cover photo choice paints an unrealistic picture of her comeback, which is a work in progress — and shows that the only way to "Steal Brit's New Diet Secret," as the cover screams, is to go back over 4 years in time.

Larry probably cut a deal with the mag. The mag wrote lies about her diet and used a 5 yr old pic and the mag got her 1st interview in 2 yrs and she got to tell more lies.

Posted by: Oh yeah britney bitch


She still does not look normal, something just ain't right. Why is X17 always pressuring her to perform. She's probably just rehearsing for something to do, cause she'll obviously lose it again if she doesn't keep busy. Especially, now that Kevin and Shar are getting their groove on again on Britney's dime. The Karma collector is definitely collecting.

Posted by: Pete


Wow, i have alot of corrections to do!

First off, to whoever said Brit didn't have a publicist or a manager is an idiot. Jive Zomba (not the label, the public office 'Zomba') represents Brit and Larry Rudolph is her manager again. Where have you been?

To 6:27, really OK! Magazine used a 5 year old pic on their cover? That pic was taken a couple months ago when Brit went away with Brett and one of the Maloofs. Look it up here on X17.

Also to 3:31, Rihanna wasn't laughing at Britney performing last year, her friend made a comment about the girls dancing on the pole which made Rihanna laugh. This has already been confirmed, nice try though you idiot.

Seriously, people need to get lives. Coming on here and trying to bring Britney down to make yourself feel better is getting old. I feel bad for most of you, what miserable lives you lead.

Posted by: Anonymous


Wow, you would think that x-17 would have gotten this story right since the hacks follow her relentlessly, trying to make her worthless life a story worth selling, which it is not. Yet another example of the lack of professionalism employed by this agency. You cannot trust or believe anything written by these low-life stalkers. They have not been wondering whether or not she was going to perform at the VMAs, they reported that she WAS performing and even ran headlines she was going to or leaving rehearsals for it. How many more times are you stupid shits going to fall for the shit being shoveled here before you realize they are as fake as Britney herself. Gee, maybe all those stories about K-Fed being a selfish jerk and Britney the poor victim and damsel in distress aren't true either!!

11:16 -- You are the one who needs to get a life or at least remember the old adage about people who live in glass houses....you are as big a loser as your precious Britney and as clueless as this site with your blanket assumption that people you don't know are leading miserable lives. Stick with what you know, honey, and it appears that is not much!!!
