Britney Spears pretends to be Madonna for a bunch of Germans

November 29th, 2008 // 106 Comments

Here’s Britney Spears performing “Womanizer” at the 2008 Bambi Awards in Germany. It’s sort of trippy seeing a bunch of fancy Germans in tuxes talk about Britney, only to have her show up on stage and once again have the timing of a three-toed sloth. Don’t get me wrong; she looks way better than last year’s VMA debacle, but Jesus, I employ more dance rhythm making toast. (Read: I do jazz hands after buttering the bread. “Butter. Kazaam!“)

EDIT: Added pics of Madotney. Video after the jump.

    Modonna is not a remarkable dancer (singer, writer-hire fixers, etc.) either, but Britney used to be much better. I’ll be surprised if she gets back to “Slave 4 U” status.

    Looks like she at least let some pros help with wardrobe. Practice the dancing.

    She could never dance, could not sing! All she had was her looks.
    She was and is a disney no talent creation.
    She doesnt look bad in leather though!

    Sad. I agree with Narcissist about Slave 4 U…I want her to get back to that, but at this point I’ve been disappointed too much to see it ever happening.
    Either she needs to fire her choreographer or just practice A LOT more (or both), The moves are easy and bland, but she’s still not nailing them with an ounce of the precision she used to have as a performer.
    She’s not even singing for christ’s sake! What’s with the stupid, akward arm dancing?
    I’ve seen high school talent shows with better choreography and execution. Like I said, SAD.
    At least she looks better…but she’ll never get the body she used to have back.

    Okay…I just watched the end because I couldn’t take it all in at once…I retract my former statement of SAD and replace it with TRAGIC. I think you can see that deep down she feels the same way with that sad, forced smile on her face at the end of the performance. “Oh gawd they’re just staring at me like the last time…please clap, ya’ll…oh, thank gawd they’re clapping…why are they all frowning?…” *as she dies little more inside*

    Notice the less-than-enthusiastic applause? I guess poor Brit can’t even get no respect in a foreign country. Maybe she should try Japan?

    The choreography is lousy, and she isn’t comfortable enough with the moves. Or maybe she’s just not comfortable in those shoes. Either way, she looked nervous, and that song requires a lot of confidence.

    That video of her practicing in a studio a few weeks ago was much better. She’s just scared right now, and it shows.

    BTW, I’ve never been a fan, but she has got some skill, and I would like to see her doing well again, because I feel so sorry for her.

    She’s looking less clumsy and lost than she did on the VMAs, but, by God, her singing is even worse than it’s ever been.

    God, she use to be so good. What the hell happened? It seems like she has lost her confidence. Of course this was A LOT better than the VMA performance. I think she is slowly regaining some confidence and maybe she will be as good someday.

    No talent Mickey Mouse bullshit. She can’t sing, can’t dance, and can’t act. The curtains got pulled on the slutty barely legal virgin gig a long long time ago and it is time to move back to the Louisiana swamps to suck on alligator dick and reminisce about being famous.

    @25 – Agreed, if it isn’t a burger shot it isn’t worth a second of my time.

    Mimi – your BFF sucks it epically and will hopefully be found dead in a ditch soon.

    #17 is right about the lukewarm applause and this coming from the country who made David Hasselhoff a recording star. “life in the fast lane will surely make you lose your mind” fits.

    Britney Spears

    There was a young singer named Spears
    Whose talent was left in arrears
    Her songs, if you’ve heard
    Are like polished up turds
    Causing listeners to slice off their ears

    I’d like to congratulate you personally, Britney, for smashing your tune to the German masses! The back beat of the thumping bass went well with your quick and bolt jolting moves.

    The remix version, which got the crowd on their feet and finally excited, created a vibe that lasted for the remainder of the show.

    It’s no fluke that Womanizer has topped the charts, setting all before in flames and ashes.

    I think she looks phenomenal and deserves so much credit for getting back up in front of audiences after everything that has been said about her.

    That being said, her singing was never the main act and it looks like she has lost the emphasis on dance that was her trademark. I’m afraid the interest of audiences has waned and “Circus” may just be too apt a name for this album.

    She would do better if she just released an honest musical effort and stopped trying to recapture the Pop Princess thing. She’s older and has two children and isn’t innovative enough to be another Madonna. (not that I would wish that for anyone either!)
