where is the potential sis??  Glory choreos have been awful so far.

a big decline from last year, there were moments on POM where she slayed and looked fierce

and it's because the choreos were either hip hop influenced ( original BTI, GM) or had elements of her old choreos ala Me Against The Music, she should've continued on this route.

 

imo her current (2016) choreos relies WAY too heavily on hairflips and that bird arm flying pose. i mean yes hairflips are cool and all but they can't just fill the whole performance with it and call it a day.

We can't be too greedy, but IMAGINE if we combined:

-Circus: Outfits and her high kicks/choreo

-Glory: Energy and presence

-FF: Props

and maybe throw in some ITZ pre recorded vocals

Yup I agree. Even the theme they went with on POM is flawed. It doesn't make sense. It would in fact help to have a theme.

It goes back to her team not having creative ideas. 

Her best tours all had themes and concepts that went amazing with the albums and those eras were by far her strongest.   Britney, ITZ, Circus. 

I feel like Glory and FF are very much on the same page with lose of direction. FF name made little sense to the album and most of the concept choices of that era.

Or maybe just have Britney era and ITZney and call it a day  if we are aiming for perfection...

I think the major flaw is Glory doesn't have a theme. So there really is no creative ideas. Circus has some of the best costumes of her career and so did DWAD with the pants outfits. 

Yeah I agree. Also, I don't necessarily see glory having any amazing performances because it's not a dance album. And we all know Britneys best performances have dance numbers. If she isn't gonna sing live but she's gonna perform a midtempo then obviously the performance is gonna suffer a bit TBH.

FF had a theme tho...she was a spy right? Dear lord...her team is the absolute worst tbh. But also, Britney likes "cheesy" so...

I saw that coming 

 

But I'm afraid the pre recorded vocals is the only thing we can get back from B.B. (Before Blackout) for now at least.

while glory does have more choreo, i feel like gloryney is still stiffer (well, she has more robotic moments )than circusney. Of course, gloryney is continually improving if we go by the 2016 VMAs, but still.....

I think it HAD a theme.

But the creative concepts behind the era got scrapped at the same time that Britney and David LaChapelle parted ways.

I was so sick of the edm **** she gave us with BJ, but now not even one cool dance bop so I can dance along while I'm getting ready to go out. What a pitty...the album is still one of her best tho.

FF concept is good imo, her execution was bad. i feel like glory has a concept, which is this 'bright', 'pure', 'sensual' vibe (album cover, artworks, songs) but the performance doesn't reflect that as much. i'm not counting on it, but this era needs a LIVE performance more than ever as it goes hand in hand with her album concept.

MTE!! + the recycled props, cheap predictable glittery vegas outfits and the visuals this era have been utter crap from the music video to the album cover.

 

 

 

 

 

I kind of feel bad complaining because she actually delivered an amazing album, arguably her best since Blackout .

Two different styles tho. I love **** Britney...but that circus gif gives me life! Also...her outfit screams BRITNEY!

This album really has no room for lipping except a few songs. the choreography is not good and hasnt been for awhile so you are right with slower songs. it just won't ever look good unless someone comes in that knows what's up.

She was a spy in some interludes but the whole era lacked a concept of FF until that point.

honestly i like her in both BUT i prefer gloryney for her personality now and her body and more confidence.

Her son named the album, that says a lot...it doesn't have a theme. Just like BJ didn't either...except for the "most personal album" **** but that doesn't leave  much room to grow creatively.

2016ney by far.

as for the Glory performances, let's just compare these two

MM has better choreo, more energy, more fluidity and is performed at a much more relevant show and yet it's a mid tempo song

 

That's not the best of circusney and you kno it byebut I do prefer vmas energy she dancing
