She needs more BTI type choreo, GM, etc Anything with more lower body movements and swag. Like c'mon girl we see them big muscular legs/calves, use them. She probably breaks Sam's D everynight squatting on it yet will mostly move her upper body with the occasional squat.

same here I dont like WB the song, the choreo or event he MV.

I still don't understand how did britney get worse from 2008 then she just got out of the whole break down situation but she was dancing fine look at her here 

she slayed that and she looked confident 

she also slayed the circus tour 

why is it that in 2011-2015 her dancing skills suddenly became so stiff , awkward and she became more shy 

I know she was taking heavy meds but does it really affect your movement and comfidence too ? 

If so I hope she's off them she seems a bit more confident now and happy 

gurl i stan for xfactorney performance but the bti pom performance takes down this one anyday

During Femme Fatale, it seemed like she had lost the ability to follow the beat of the music with her body. Like she lacked the rhythm. As if she couldn't coordinate her thoughts with her body, and I think it was a combination of both that so mentioned medication, and that her body changed a lot, so it wasn't the same.

Now I think she's gained her ability to follow the rhythm of the music (most of the times) but the choreo keeps being so silly, unflattering and it doesn't look like they're dancing anymore, they're just doing fast movements, and I'm talking about the backup dancers too. Any of us would probably have a hard time trying to learn one of the POM choreos, but that doesn't mean the choreography is good. They need a choreo, or she needs a choreo where she has to move her hips and legs, and not just one part of the body at the time. It has to look fluid, and something that Britney choreos always had is that she made it seem it was very easy to do. Hiring that squared division I think it was one of the worst things her team has ever done. And that choreographer from Pretty Girls isn't too far from them either, but at least she was a liiiiiiiiiiiiiiitle bit  better.

Yeah I really agree with this so much, the choreo now is silly as you say, which doesn't help things. But when I think about it, the way she used to dance would have made it more bearable and watchable. She would have 'Britney-tised' the moves to make them suit her.

I see 0 difference anymore.  If it was 5 years ago I'd say I did.  But it's not.  It's 2017 and since Vegas she's been flawless.

Simple:

1. The Injury - The knee injury and breakdown took a big toll on her... but she recovered (though the knee will probably never be 110% again), but at least now she can comfortably get down on the floor, bend, do backflips, etc. now... so she's on a good path.

2. The Confidence - after being shammed with the breakdown, then coming back with confidence, and then being shammed for her dancing (for #1 above), her confidence level dropped.  Before she would show the song through her face, but now she just shakes her head like she's singing karaoke. It's slowly coming back though.  

3.  The Choreography - it's stupid, unnatural, and even her backup dancers are counting steps often now.  Whereas before, her choreography was a lot more simple but her confidence and personality made it look more complicated.   Now it's like a mix of repetitive boring moves and walking/skipping around.  Whereas before because the moves were more simple, it looked more fluid and she could run/stomp/**** skip/etc. when she needs to get to the other side of the stage.  Now that her energy is back and she's in top shape, it's obvious her and her dancers are not excited about the choreography.

4.  The Location and Audience - Before she would travel and perform in front of diverse, lively audiences who fed her energy and enthusiasm....  now she mainly performs in front of drunk people and random people who are not even fans of hers who are just visiting Vegas.  She even mentioned this after her recent UK performances, especially the Apple Music performance where she was not used to the audience not being intoxicated and actually paying attention to her.  This is why when it was the BBMAs she was fierce when she got comfortable on stage and audience was feeding her that energy.  This is why a world tour is so important.  Las Vegas was great to get her back on track, but she needs a more worldly non-intoxicated audience.

 

 

lazy *****  she has the best fans in the whole world and she just ****** up  true but sad  she just want the money and no more

You should do this only with Slave performances (Slave was performed at that 2007 "tour" right?)

OmigawdI'm so proud of Britney she's slowly getting back her dance moves and her attitude

I think Vegas helped her "loosen up" and start slaying again 

vegas isn't that bad only problem it's destroying the promo for glory and future albums if she stays

Her back looks extremely stiff to me.  the only thing she dows fluidly is arm waving. Probably lack of practive doesnt help wither. Also she used to be a lot more detail focused. Her hands in Slave for example

 

But her yoga videos and pic shows otherwise

Her old performances were technically superior, but not by THAT much. What made her a legend was her electrifying, manic confidence.

YES

though original MM, not Make Me (Tap)

[Cookie Lyon]

lacks of confidence, stiff, does not look natural as if she is counting her steps. Doesn't finish her moves.

Her way of dancing doesn't even fit the song anymore... look at how she dances on Slave 4 u

you dont have to be a professional yogi to have good back flexibilty. Dancers and gymnasts also have good back flexibility. Britney has done all three and used to have good back flexibility (The end of Crazy during her oops tour). I dont care that her back is stiff Im just commenting that I started noticing that is was getting super stiff during FF.

[ohoney]

She's stiff, she probably counts the steps and the choreos are bad, let's face it, she barely had difficult choreos (except for the Darkchild remix) but her older choreos had more you know...whole body movements, all i see now is 90% arms 10% legs and yes, hairflipney...she have some good moments but that's it, nothing impressive. 

[CJMCH]

Right now it's the way she "counts the steps" or "doesn't know what to do" in some blank spaces of the choreo. For me, that is anxiety problems cuz she has already shown that she can do it like she did before during some performances of the Glory era.

THIS basically is what I'm saying.

 

I love this video, she just has great swag especially in the beginning and she's barely even moving at that point!

 

Confidence, Swagger, not stiffness.

Her body is on point there too, not too muscular
