Akon, Common Britney Spears MTV Video Music Awards ‘Gimme More’ Performance Diss

Sarah Silverman and Kanye West aren’t the only celebs classifying Britney Spears’ 2007 MTV Video Music Awards opener as a wet noodle. Hip-hop heavyweights Akon and Common are chiming in on Brit’s first live performance of the previously well-received ‘Gimme More.’

“That could have been better. She needed to focus more. She looked nervous and I think the pressure got to her,” Akon told the media after Sunday night’s ceremony.
Common added, “I think it didn’t seem like she wanted to be there. There wasn’t any spark, it didn’t feel like life was there.”

If you have a good hair stylist then it won’t fall off. I mean look at Beyonce she shakes her head all the time and that wig never falls off.
Brit just needs to retire and STOP the madness!!!
My husband Common and I both agree she just wasn’t there.

the reason her dancing was so bad is cuz HER HEEL HAD BROKEN ON HER SHOE
you can see very clearly from some of the pictures that it had broken
obviously she wouldnt dance well as to not break her ankle
