What is the worst Britney performance ever?

[It'sBeenAWhile]

The 2007 VMA Performance was and still is one of the most iconic performances of ALL TIME. The impact is real.

As for worst performance ever, definitely something from the FF era but we all know she was medicated and didn't want to do it soo...there's that

The FF promo TV performances are the worst I think  I enjoyed the tour though. Womanizer, Gimme More and 3 were sick 

[Anti-Hero]

There was a performance of Break The Ice in 2014 that was really bad, I think she was sick though.

I think this thread is not appropriate right now, when we know all of the **** that our queen B has faced (and is still facing) during that **** CS. 

In addition, we cannot blame her for giving bad performances, we know enough facts to say that our team abused her and forced her to perform despite her condition.

it looks like they put her in the dark on purpose..

 

poor her really, this performance looks so forced and she looks out of place. Don't even wanna know how she felt

The entire FF era and even the album should never had happened...

[ralphcornio]

Pack all FF era performances in a zip and there you have it. And we know the reasons, she was medicated, forced, blackmailed and whatnot. But unlike POM, where she at least seems to be having fun, it's really PAINFUL to watch. She's just not there. I wish it all vanished from the net, honestly

One of this 2.... In Vmas '07 she is smiling, here the eyes look dead and she is medicated, painful to wacth.

i cant see this the same way again... it makes me very sad to think that she might not have wanted to be there.

[Lost In Space]

The performance that immediately came to mind reading the title is Big Fat Bass on Jimmy Kimmel. They had her SO medicated. It was like watching a zombie perform. Not her fault!

And although I love the and song arrangement, probably Lucky in Piece of Me. Embarrassing.

someone doing this today would be HIGHLY praised by embracing her true self, owning her body and other BS; but at the time she was labeled as FAT!!!

Right. So many artists today on stage giving us nothing. Britney was ***i and exerted confidence while she strutted around looking fierce. 

All eyes were on Britney in 2007. She was the public’s number one target. Anyone back then would have criticized her for anything wether she had a better wig, choreography or whatever. 
 

This kinda worries me now. People are all eyes on Britney again. When she comes back will they start to bash her again because she does not fulfill their basic/tired standards?

@Jordan Miller honey delete this thread.

 

I can already tell where this is headed.

How did I know y’all would be dragging the 2007 VMA performance in this  

I love that performance. It might not have been her best but it’s far from her worst, and it was still an iconic moment in pop history…
 

Literally the entire Femme Fatale era was tragic

The Apple Music Fest slander 

Our queen performed a medley of like 22 songs that night and IUSA was right near the end. She had been doing POM for three years straight at this point. And this whole show was an abbreviated version of POM on a smaller stage, so naturally there will be moments where things get mixed up. She's working on Glory at this point, doing tons of promo, etc. I thought she slayed Apple 2016. Honestly, 2016ney was a gift.

I think it's a different era now. Of course there will always be some critics, but I don't think it will ever reach that same level again. There are also new laws regarding paparazzi since then.

Not sure which performance would qualify exactly, but it’s definitely one during the FF era.

The real Queen need to come back

The slayage here

[ExXL]

VMA 07 turned to be iconic even though it was lackluster and low energy , so I wouldn't say that , billboard 2011 (ttwe/sm) was even worse in my opinion ....
