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.

91. You people need to give her some time. She was scared and she looks damn good for someone that has 2 babies a year apart from each other, so give her some time becauseChris Angels wasn't there for her, he ditched her and that wasn't right. She fired her hairstylist before the show and they shouldn't have done the show in Vegas to begin with. She wasn't the only person who lipsync at the show because Chris Brown did too and you guys didn't say anything about that! She's not even fat, she was a teenager when she was skinner in 2004 she was getting her curve sand then she had 2 kids show now she have that body now! Give her some time! Don't give up on her for one show because she still have until November to shape up and that'll give her some time to get in to shape and dye her roots blonde again! Please don't give up on her now!

92. She needs some more time to re-event herself like Madonna and Mariah Carey did. All great musical artists done something bad and then re-event themselves. She needs to take time out and go on vacation for some time without the media in her face all the time! Be happy she didn't cancel out and she showed up. TMZ, you guys need to stop kicking people when there down. You guys need to help people. You help Vanessa Hudgens when she toke those pics and she wasn't even legal! Britney Spears did bad on a show and you knock her down! That's not fair to her and her fans who loved her through everything she's done in her life! She's going to bloom once again and be that huge pop star like she was 4 years ago!

93. Britney should go from brain-dead pop fool, to being a pole dancer at some loser club in Vegas. It's all over, but she could dance and lip-sync for drinks.

That figure reminds me of a swayback horse.

94. I was never a Britney fan before this but whatever talent she had, she needs to find quick! That performance stunk worse than unwashed punnana and a**crack combined!

As for Kanye West, someone change that b*tch's diaper! He's good and one of the few talented rappers out there BUT for him to act like he does because he doesn't win is very immature! Get over yourself Kanye!

95. Britney is the one who referred to her children mistakes and said they were the reason K Fed left her. Sarah S was only picking up on that.

96. When is Kanye not crying over something? I don't know any of his songs but I know who he is because he is always on tv whining.

97. RE: BRITNEY BOO HOOs

It's amazing how the back-up dancers were able to nail their far-more-complex moves in a couple of hours, yet Britney couldn't. And they hadn't spent hours in a studio recording the track.

So to those who whine about a last-minute change being the cause of that disastrous performance, what have you to say about that?

In truth, I sincerely doubt that the insurance company pulled coverage just hours before the event. They would have wanted to know all of the details -- including venue suitability -- prior to writing coverage.

Next excuse, please...

98. Ok I thought the song kinda rocked, it will be a good club song. I give Brit props for having the courage to get on stage in front of millions that have over the past year knocked her down. How many of you name callers have faced your worst fears? How many of you would continue to get up and go on in life with everyone you knew continued to call you names and say your worthless? Not many. Ok she was rusty & nervous who the hell wouldn't be knowing that every move you make would be scrutinized by people whom hate you and rather see you fell than overcome adversity?

BTW Brit your body rocks, I'm glad your not sulking around like a skeleton as others celebs are doing. Your more "human" than the other artificial/superficial people in the biz.

99. Where did my post go from yesterday? Give a white woman a chance TMZ?
Sounds stupid doesn't it K.W? Get real and live in the now.

100. Spears was always a mediocre talent propped up by the P.R. machine. Any good studio tech can make someone sound great. Do it live! It seems that most of todays pop divas lip synch.
Silverman might be the worst stand up comic I have ever seen! Not the least bit funny!

101. I remember a few years ago when it was Mariah Carey that everyone was bashing and making fun of???? Look who's laughing now! Mariah is awesome. Britney will come back.
Everyone wanted her to fail. I feel bad for her. So many haters. Remember what happened to the great Whitney Houston? Britney is young, she's been through a lot. Give her a break.

102. Can't Britney Spears wake up and realize she's a !*&* - UP. Go home to your kids B**** and start acting like a mother.

103. Britney: GO HOME AND START ACTING LIKE A MOTHER. Your embarrassing yourself daily! NO ONE respects you! Your being pathetic. WAKE UP and GO HOME

104. I can't blame people for focusing on Britney's body, her talent and attraction was never just her voice, it was a combination of looks, singing talent and sexiness. If she's going to go with revealing outfits, how could one complain that some people didn't care for what was revealed? I like Britney, I'm not sure that her comback will be successful, but I am sure that she has enough money to not worry about it and her fans have her old CD's to listen to.

105. I too was very disappointed with Britney's performance. I've never been a fan of her albums but her singles and performances of her singles have been strong in the past. Anyone watching should have been able to tell that she was terrified, I know from experience, fear is a performance killer, you're sort of paralyzed. How you feel on the inside clearly is reflected in your stiff body movements, it takes confidence and an otherwordly sense of freedom to be able to reach the audience, rightfully so, her self esteem is shot. She has to fix herself from the inside out to even hope to regain her former status.
