Lets Get This Party Started
Brit Boo-Hoos After VMA Bomb

There's barely anyone on the planet who hasn't panned Britney Spears' shockingly sucktastic MTV "performance" of "Gimme More" -- and even Brit thought it was so crappy that she cried backstage afterwards.

Us reports that Britney J. was so upset about her flabbily frightful lip-not-quite-synching that she lost it not long after, though no word if it might've had anything to do with Sarah Silverman's zinger -- calling her kids "the most adorable mistakes" as well.

Pretty much all reaction has been similar to the line taken by the New York Post, which wrote, "[Brit] jiggled like Jell-O ... [she] didn't seem to care that she danced like she had a pantload [or] that her lips weren't synched ..."

Kanye to MTV – Go Eff Yourself


Speaking of crybabies, Kanye West says he's had it with MTV after he got snubbed again at the VMAs, throwing a tantrum backstage after losing all five categories for which he was nominated.

"That's two years in a row, man ... give a black man a chance," said West, who was described by the AP as "stomping around his entourage." "I'm trying hard man, I have the ... number one record, man." It's not the first time West has whined about an awards-show shutout -- last year, he crashed the stage at the MTV Europe Awards to complain.

Rosie Calls Trump a "Torn Scarecrow" and a "Slug"


Aren't they just adorable at this age? Rosie O'Donnell decided that she just hasn't had enough of tussling with Donald Trump, and is taking her slapfight to the pages of her new memoir, calling His Comboverness a "torn scarecrow" and a "garden slug."

Page Six has excerpts from the book, which one source who's read it calls "sad and pathetic ... the work of a deeply disturbed woman, page after page of insane ramblings." Trump, for his part, says that he'll spend "some time" on Rosie in his new book, "Think Big and Kick Ass," and bets that "my book sells a lot more than hers."

Party Favors: Maybe Britney Makes More Sense in Urdu ... Big Pussy Prowls Fashion Week


How do you say "It's Britney, bitches" in Swahili? Though she might be flailing big-time at home, at least one merciful soul is offering to help bring her comeback to the masses outside the US. Arie Deutsch, founder of voice-conversion company Voxonic, says that he'll convert her single "Gimme More" into five languages of her choice -- for free. If only he could translate those hideous extensions into Acceptable-ish ... Does Big Pussy still think he's in witness protection? We're told that Vincent Pastore -- aka Salvatore Bonpensiero of "Sopranos" fame -- showed up for the Apple Blossoms show during Fashion Week, where everyone was guzzling champagne and organic energy brew Syzmo, but skipped out abruptly once he was spotted.

46. She just seamed to be lacking the confidence to really throw it out there like she has in the past. She has lost her center a bit and needs to stop reading the tabloids herself. I think if we don't leave this poor girl alone she will end up dead. I can't imagine having the whole world ripping me a new ass everyday, following me to bathrooms etc. She is a kid, she is going to make mistakes difference being her mistakes are tabloid drama.

47. Britney bombed? That sure comes as no surprise. Once a loser always a loser but she seemed to have her hand on that back up dancers crouth. I loved the joke about the two cutest mistakes.

50. Um......... Ben#54....You need a new hobby. Nobody will read all that crap. You bored the hell out of me in your first sentence.

51. ok...im not gonna lie, i did watch the vma's last night, solely to see how awful britney's performance would be. and she did suck, but she did better than i expected, i half expected her to break down on stage in the middle of her performance and run off crying. even though she sucked, at least she did have the guts to get up there and try. and really, for someone who just had two kids, went through a god-awful divorce, and now a completely horrendous custody battle, not to mention the fact that she hasnt performed in like 3 years, im really proud of her. you could tell she was totally nervous, but she tried anyway. i say she'll make a comeback, just give her time and a little patience and we'll see the britney that we all know and love.

52. I feel bad for Britney. I don't know if her nerves got the best of her so she took a few too many nerve pills, or what happened, but that performance was shockingly bad compared to every other performance I've ever seen from her, and it did seem as if she was drugged. I'm not going to beat up on her though, because she probably just needs to ease back into performing, rather than jumping back in after having had two kids and going through all her personal turmoil.

Sarah Silverman sucked much more than Britney did, though. Britney should kick her ass for those comments about her kids.

Keep it short. Nobody comes here to read War and Peace

54. What Sarah Silverman said about Brit's kids was awful. She should be ashamed of herself. The only thing she did was make herself look bad. I dont care who you are or how bad you might have done at the VMA's, to talk about someone's kids is a MAJOR NO..NO!

59. Perez posted an open letter to Brit. . . I responded, but he did not post, please post:


Dear PEREZ:

Who are u to talk about people this way, you have a responsibility now, and out of thousands of performances, this was the FIRST bad one I have seen Britney pull out! I am not even a big Brit fan, but I was hoping she would pull it off, yes, she didn't do such a great job, but we all have "off" night, and rumor has it, that she over-heard Sarah Silverman rehearsing, she is just getting back on the wagon, everyone who is talking this way and ripping apart this fellow human being, will have blood on their hands if this girl kills herself, you hear about it all the time from kids getting bullied, well this is the same thing, if not worse, your posting these things for the world to see, the papers are ripping her apart, Sarah Silverman called her children MISTAKES!!!!!!!!!!! IT IS TRULY SAD WHAT WE ARE DOING TO OURSELVES TO SELL PAPERS, OR TO GAIN POPULARITY AT OTHERS EXPENSE. . . . BY THE WAY, I RATE HER VMA PERFORMANCE A TIE WITH YOUR LAST "CELEBRITY RAP"!!!!!!!!!!

60. Britney needs to get back to being a professional, no professional in their right mind would have taken the stage to give that totally lack luster performance. She had plenty of time to prepare and she knew that her career was on the line. Is she done, not by a long shot but she must realize she is no longer that little girl gone siren of 3 years ago, those days are over. The problem is she has not learned to evolve. Madonna was so sucessful because she was a master at recreating herself throughout her career, even making huge mistakes. Mistakes are okay, we all make them, last night was a mistake. Britney attempted to come back as she was 3 years ago. That person is gone and her body is not the issue, she still looks great just in a different way. A little costume adjustment would have made a huge difference but nothing could account for the missed dance steps and obvious lip sync blunders. There was no energy what so ever, if that is gone for you then find another way, we all know that she could have done so much better. This is not personal, she is paid very well to be a professional performer and she did not deliver. Scared could have been the reason yet it looked painfully like she was on something. I hope she pulls herself together and gets on with the amazing life that is there for her, we should all be so lucky.
