I bet someone (disgusting Robyn) reminded her to smile at the end of the video!

Robin wasn’t around during Femme Fatale. Brett was her assistant then. I’m sure Larry Rudolph was watching her like a hawk though  Gotta make sure his cash cow mentions her tour dates so he can collect his coins

Jesus she looks like she's being held at gun point here.

Seriously how did her team let do promotions like this when she obviously was out of it?

I was gonna write this exactly thing...I guess the threaths and the lithium theyve put her in 2011 were getting bigger  here

This video is very strange she was very uncomfortable and did not look directly to the camera. It’s sad because I went to her concert that year in São Paulo in Nov. 18.

OMMGGG you were there???? I was there too lets be friends Lol

I remember watching this on Exhale 10 years ago. (My old posts from 2011 were deleted at my own request back in the day, sigh.)

Some people said it was because she was “nearly 30” and an adult. At 21, I wasn’t anywhere near 30 but was offended - how could anyone think this was natural behavior? How could anyone think you suddenly lose your entire personality and look like you’re being held hostage because you’re in the third decade of your life?

Jamie, Andrew Wallet, Reva, et all: We know what was up and we’ll never forget what you did to this poor woman.

 

Edit: holy cow, im the same age as she was in that video. CRAZY

[Jefferson Silva]

you could tell in 2008 - 2010 that she was different and less passionate about the whole thing in her videos and performances

but 2011 at least for me was the year I noticed she was pretty much dead in the eyes. in the video for TTWE she looks so bored tired and completely out of her herself, only the body doing the bare minimum

it must be really hard to work while under heavy meds. This girl deserves revenge. No wonder Wendy Williams said those words

You're wrong, Robin was there all the time. There is a crew photo from the Femme Fatale tour, she is on the picture including Brett and the one and only, Lou..

DEAD

I really need to start reading the parts that read, … This Day in 2011 … cause my heart literally exploded thinking she was announcing a new tour.

LMAO

Really… I thought she came in for the Britney Jean/POM era. Gross

NOW IT MAKES SENSE WHY SHE LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS BEING HELD AT GUN POINT!!!

She wasn’t put on lithium until 2019, according to her statement. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

No but really. I Wanna Go looks the weirdest because visually she’s 100% there, but her energy isn’t. Truly jarring to see her looking so pretty yet so lifeless.

Also I remember reading a review of her HIAM video that said she had this look in her eyes as if she were trying to remember whether or not she forgot the oven on at home. 

I usually hate the way music critics write about her but I have to admit it was spot on.

Yeah, I don't think she would've been able to function on lithium, not even at the level of FFney, but they were definitely giving her something else.

Can we refrain from calling her names like “awkney” in light of everything that’s come out… it’s just not ok. It was honestly never ok …. But especially now. 

[Poison Paradise]

She was literally internally screaming here. Roughest time to be a fan, even more than the Brenda Joan era imo..

[bitbitboi]

This was SO hard to watch back then. Now I kinda understand what was going on. But still, I can't believe no one had any common sense and decency to NOT release this, it was hurtful and disheartening, and so oppressing on her.

You're right about that, my apologies. I edited the post.

[Oxic]

That announcement was a mess. The light, the makeup, the awkwardness, the fact she says "here are the south american dates for the fft" and proceeds to show only 2

The best of that video is this emoji 

[Stefani]

The start of "come to Brazil". Wait is that vid the origin of this iconic emoji?
