Britney Spears pretends to be Madonna for a bunch of Germans
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.

She is only fake.

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.

i love britney! she looks so much better i hope she continues keeping herself up to par looking great.

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!
11. Albatross - November 29, 2008 11:22 AM
Epic FAIL.
12. Mrs. Satan - November 29, 2008 11:24 AM
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.

Who the hell is paying her for this no-talent crap?
15. Mrs. Satan - November 29, 2008 11:36 AM
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*

one word to describe that. PITIFUL!!!
17. TJ - November 29, 2008 11:42 AM
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?
18. Jenn - November 29, 2008 11:49 AM
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.
19. desi - November 29, 2008 12:04 PM

22. timmy the dying boy - November 29, 2008 12:17 PM
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.
23. laura q - November 29, 2008 12:25 PM
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.
24. Dania - November 29, 2008 12:30 PM

Britney is still as gorgeous as ever.
Her so-called 'disaster' over a year ago
is probably the most famous event
in entertainment history.
Once again she has the last laugh.

If somebody told me that Brittany would be able to recover from the gal who shaved her head, beating on cars with a stick, I would thought you were on Drugs!
31. Richard McBeef - November 29, 2008 1:17 PM
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.

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
36. Randal - November 29, 2008 1:34 PM
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.

49. sarah - November 29, 2008 3:15 PM
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!)

not to be a pervert but ... she has a really nice body. she looks soooooo much better now than she ever has, she actually has some meat on her. LOOK AT THOSE FUCKIN BUTTCHEEKS, they look delicious.
53. ryan - November 29, 2008 3:50 PM
#21: Marlene Dietrich? really? britney is just reviving the old hollywood style mixing it with an old fashioned circus. i think its really great/ the cd is amazing! id like to see Marlene Dietrich try to fit in that outfit!
54. Balls McCoy - November 29, 2008 4:24 PM
She looks great and as soon as I get my dick out of 5-stars mom I'm gonna spear that Britney's ass.
See, I can be as classy as the rest of you guys.
55. gigi - November 29, 2008 5:12 PM
#1) German still scares the hell out of me... I kept envisioning all those people planning an invasion of Poland during that dude's intro lol
#2) why is it at the end of her performance Britney has this look like "yeayy I DID it! I really did it!" shoddy mediocre you-can-almost-see-her-counting-out-the-steps performance, and the look on her face is as if she just cured AIDS or something lmao.... the 'crazy' is still present people - no matter what she'll ever dooooooo!
56. Miss Brown Eyes - November 29, 2008 5:22 PM
I'm just surprised no one can see what she is doing... she's morphing into a Madonna mini me (FISH, help me out I think that's what you were alluding to?). First she appears with Skeletor on concert tour wearing normal-ish (by Brittney standard) and singing.... next she's appearing in a top hat, fishnets and mesh in the middle.... again the no talent & inability to sing... MADONNA mini-mes gonna be running the planet if people don't stop listening to Madonna.... Kabblah's plot to take over the world.
*goes to put my tin foil hat on so the Kablah cronies can't read my thoughts*
57. wolf5150 - November 29, 2008 6:11 PM
Kellyanne, I am with you babe, those buttcheeks are fanfuckintastic. I think this is the look that Madonna was really going for(instead she ended up with "dried-up mummy in a sarcophagus who worked out a little too much and
got herpes from Sandra Bernhard.') Whatever she is doing,I would keep doing
it and not pay attention to the Madonna fans who think people copy her. Noone
has copied her in at least fifty years.Madonna didn't look HOT like that even when she was Britneys age.
58. friendlystoner - November 29, 2008 7:03 PM

59. hollywood_hillbilly - November 29, 2008 7:13 PM
Douchie, back in the late 80's older lesbians who primarilly "courted" younger(under 18) girls were called "daddies". Now, there were different types of daddies, a rough daddy was one who was into rough sex, you know, spanking, biting, clamps, spanking, slapping, maybe a closed fist or two.
60. Balls McCoy - November 29, 2008 7:18 PM
While I'm a fan and root root root for the Britney, but I can't help myself from sharing these random thoughts...
-Does any German actually deserve an award? Well, besides the obvious...
-Hasn't post-WWII Germany suffered enough?
-Was it necessary for the announcer to compare the works of Spears to those of Konrad Kujau?
-Britney's performance reminds me of every aerobics show I've ever watched where the woman on the is considered "low-impact".
-At least she's actually singing...well, about 1/16th of the song, you know the part that's off-key.
61. Sandrina - November 29, 2008 7:42 PM
@55: Go and get some history lessons.... In case you don't know, the young Germans are way more tolerant than Americans and Germany is NOT participating in the Iraq war! So why don't you go back to your trailer and stop commenting about countries you couldn't even point out on a map!
62. Rough Daddy - November 29, 2008 7:49 PM

WTF??? Can I get a gig like this in Germany? I mean my top selling song "Womb Beater" from my fantastic CD (in the making over five minutes ago), "Uberpenius" is going to be huge over there. Britney shall we tour together (you are still caged/sedated at night, correct)?
67. jonny monstikio - November 29, 2008 9:34 PM
She is completely without talent. Always was.
68. Danklin24 - November 29, 2008 9:37 PM
Why didnt she get naked like in the video for this song? This is Germany for Christ sakes, they have porn in their breakfast commercials. Certainly a nude performance would have made this much better, it is after all the only thing that makes this abysmal song tolerable.
69. KIDS - November 29, 2008 10:43 PM
I heard that she appeared on a dating community ***INTERRACIALLOVING.COM*** with a personal account there. Maybe you have the chance to talk to her online or meet some singles there. It is amazing.
70. Richard McBeef - November 29, 2008 10:57 PM
Limerick-Man - What are you, a limey? Call me a redneck yankee but the way i pronounce "again" rhymes with sin. you probably pronounce it so it rhymes with sane. There are three different pronunciations according to webster, so use your imagination, motherfucker.
I appreciate the follow-up limericks, good sir. Keep them coming. But don't post the same one twice.
71. Rachael - November 29, 2008 11:01 PM
Everyone that says she has no talent - get real!!!! Of course she has talent! Why do you think she keeps bringing out records and people keep watching her every move and continue to be facinated/amused/confused /obsessed by her (including all of you on here).
She will never disapear off the radar - she will go down as a legend like it or not. She is probably one of the most famous people in world.
Like her or hate her - she is here to stay.
Everyone likes themselves a bit of Britney - including me :)
72. tired of people calling her non talented - November 29, 2008 11:11 PM
71- exactly.
I am so tired of whiney people, losers that piss and moan about how she has no talent bla bla bla.
Shut up, it doesn't matter really what you say.
You don't like her voice??
There are plenty of praised artists that don't have the most pitch perfect crazy range voices.
Bruce Springsteen doesn't sing like Pavarotti did, etc. But he still does well and people enjoy his music.
Britney can carry a tune and has her own kittenish little sound that has obviously worked for her, as she has many hit songs and a diamond record.
I have associates that attended the x factor performance who have informed me that she was excellent, and sang with the back track and they could hear her live vocals.
She sang live on Saturday night live, check footage if you don't believe it. Maybe you don't like her voice, but so what??
That is obviously not all that it takes to be famous or have hit albums. Sorry to inform you of this news.
She writes some of her music, she choreographs dances, has taught dance classes, can sing, has appeal.
Lots of people can sing, there is more to having fun music that people want to hear.

It reminds me of Jess Simpson really...I wonder when the countrified remix is out.

And they get all itchy about it and lecture you on how nice and good they are nowadays *lol*rofl*
83. Michelle - November 30, 2008 9:00 AM
Someone needs to give her a serious pep talk before she enters the stage. You are supposedly the princess of pop- act like it! In addition, I could choreograph better moves! Britney hire me! I'll give you a motivational pep talk & a better routine. You know who's dance routine was the best - Beyonce's from her single ladies video and ama performance. Britney, watch that video and take some tips from Beyonce and you will flourish.
84. Moggie - November 30, 2008 10:04 AM
You people need to cut this woman some slack. She's been through enough already. It's nice to see her looking so good and getting back on stage. It's understandable that she has lost some confidence because of all the people out there like you that want to harass her and be so damn mean. I always liked her and felt so bad when I saw the troubles she was having. This is coming from a young single mother, I know how a lot of that feels... Keep it up Britney! You're looking awesome and never listen to these assholes!!

Britney shouldn't hijack Madonna's shit when she's about to fail in performance comparison. It's really sad that Madonna, at 50, kicks the shit out of 27 year old Britney in dancing, energy, innovation and life. I guess age really is just a number.
