Honestly, this performance made me realize I don't really like her choreography or performances as much anymore. I think the BBMAs were really good besides the beginning, but idk, I'm just not into all the arm movements, walking back and forth, and the shitload of dancers around her all the time. I wish she would do more hip hop choreography and scale things back. Go for a less is more approach. Less dancers, less of a production/spectacle, less "pointless" choreography. More focus just on her, more live singing (seriously, even just a few lines here and there with prerecorded vocals. The lip syncing with vocals from 10-20 years ago is ridiculous.), more meaningful choreography, maybe even some improv choreography as she's just "feeling herself" in the moment. Some of her best performances were relatively simple with just her and some dancers, not much production, some live singing, and her just focusing on getting into it. (TRL 2003, ABC Special, VMAs 2001 (production was high though))

Ariana's latest album sold much better than Brinty and she has more songs released as singles already in her new album so of course she would be more comfortable to include her new tracks in the setlist :arianabye:

the day her album dropped, she performed numerous songs before the GP even had the chance to hear them. Beyonce only gave her fans 3 days to learn all the words to her new album before she went on tour, that week. Rihanna releases a single and then performs an entirely different song off the album so at least the fans can hear how it sounds live. Just cause Ariana's album sold more and she released more singles, doesn't mean Britney gets to slide by and continue to perform a 3 month old song

We keep bringing up live vocals cause we're tired of seeing articles saying she forgot the words or she's not even in sync. We keep bringing up the original make me video, cause believe it or not, that video would've caused controversy, the GP would've ate it up, and we would have gotten the second single already and a new video in a few weeks. When we say risks, we mean new choreo, new sets, more importantly a new team.

You don't think everyone already knows she has a Vegas show here that will be entering it's fourth year in 2017? Like, hello, did you forget that you just dropped an album with 15 other songs that you can perform a month ago? 
 

I don't know what everyone else wants, but i honestly just want her to push herself and try to compete with the other girls

what can she do to push herself and compete? give me some actions, some verbs, what would you like to see her physically do? what would satisfy you, you know she won't sing live it's been 15 years.

So people are not allowed to have their own opinion? People have to like everything she does? This is a discussion board. I guess people can talk about whatever they want. It's easy to avoid such threads

It's different when Britney delivered a good performance and of course people magnify the negative instead of being constructive about it.

it would be dead silent if everyone was positive. it would have been dead silent if everyone was negative. What im saying is people need to stop telling people how to feel and what to post on here. U cant just force ur OWN opinion on everyone else. Let people who disliked it rant and the ones who liked it praise it

 

Thank you! Finally, someone gets the concept of "opinions" :lessons:

I was kind of hating on the performance, you should try to watch it another time it gets better tbh.

I still wish she would pre-record vocals and make it seem more live, why does she refuses to scream a few woos like she used to :nydisgust:

i personally feel like she has shown her growth as an artist with glory. so i'm satisfied in that aspect. but performing wise.. her dancing is way too basic to justify the use of 100% lipsync

see now I respect this comment because it actually makes sense, you think her choreo could be sharper ect... thats fair enough.

what would you like to see her do that she hasn't done before (please don't go back in time to the year 2000 because apparently we don't like recycling here) lol

No baby. As GP, i wanna go to a show and have fun. Believe me, you will not be ready to spend money on a mediocre boring performance with WEAK live vocals. If so, then good luck. If i wanna hear good music, i listen to the studio version. POP music is not about singing live because it is such a complicated, modern and technologic-ish style. I prefer lip syncing with an entertaining performance instead of standing with crowd hearing weak vocals with boring music and mediocre show. Full stop.

Fact is you're in the minority. Britney's credibility is not good right now, that's why her music is underperforming. In a world of Selena and Demi and Justin etc talking about their problems and crying on stage the GP who buy music want a connection, however fake it may be. None of these kids have great voices but they sing live and talk on stage (or at least do a convincing pre-record). Last night Brit said a total of what, 10 words? How are younger people who don't know her well supposed to respond to that?

I really liked the performance, but fact is it is outdated. At this stage Britney is being praised for looking happy and healthy (which is brilliant) but a decade after the breakdown why does the average music fan care? Sales show they don't, unfortunately. Glory shows some huge music growth for her production wise, she should carry that through in her performances.

Right now she's performing great FOR BRITNEY SPEARS POST 2007, live vocals/ pre-recorded and audience interaction would go some way to enhancing her performances.

just because people are criticizing/getting tired of her very, very weak dancing and her embarrassing lip syncing doesn't mean they aren't real fans. :CPKney: 

I could not agree with you more...we give Britney something to work towards...we don't pacify things because we're afraid for her 'fragile' state...we know she's capable of better and push for it.

I literally just said what she can do but here they are again. the most basic one is singing live. If she isn't going to sing live which Glory is basically produced for, then get in the studio and prerecord vocals everytime she has a new performance with different arrangements so they all don't sound the same. It would also be nice if the choreo wasn't the same
