Pop superstar Britney Spears gave the first live (loose term) performance of ‘Womanizer’ at Germany’s Bambi Awards tonight. I’m gonna need to see more performances, as the theatrics and major spectacle really veiled whether or not Ms. Spears still has it or nor – which after all is what we all want to know.
What do you think of the performance?

The performance was… dry.
Good thing she did this “live” performance overseas and not her mother country.
She could treat this as a rehearsal for more “live” things to come, as she will surely be promoting her upcoming album

That was one lazy-ass performance.. Not to mention the second-hand outfit that she’s wearing (Madonna’s Hard Candy tour, much?). Everything looked great around Britney, she seemed to be the only problem… She’s really lost it.

When i saw it.. i just couldn’t close my mouth
she was AWESOME.. great… AMAZING.!! The clothes just perfect… the hair (what we could see anyway) , the makeup.. everything.. just like the old good britney we loved!!! About dancing.. from the little thing that we saw, i think she has the energy back.. and she can dance! She danced great, although it was a little.. but i don’t care.. that worked for me
About the singing.. no. it was not live.. but ok in my opinion brit doesn’t have THE voice, it’s the WHOLE damn thing that she has, that makes people love her!!! you don’t have to have good voice to sing songs like womanizer.. it’s just not the kind of music that you can show your voice.. like all britney’s songs, but that’s not the point.. the point is she did it really well, she seemed to be full of energy, happy, ready 2 go and NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FUCKING DRUGGED VMA 2007 PERFORMANCE!!!!

Why bring Beyonce up again on this?
for real, get over it, give Britney a break, she wil be bakc in no time, just be patience, she has to get her confidence back first and let’s then compare Britney to Beyonce!
I think she did a great job, she did what i was expecting her to do!

i love beyonce i love ciara and i love britney but
the performance was VERY lackluster.
Why the fuck was she @ the Bambi awards? Who cares about that show? I wonder if they were paying some cash to perform there…
and as for the Beyonce stans that continue to annoy the shit outta me, Beyonce is only #1 everytime because she always releases albums when there is NO competition to guarantee that #1 spot. On the singles chart, she hasn’t taken TI’s #1 spot (yet) but what if they both released albums the same week, who do you think would really be #1 the first week, probably TI

God, does Beyonce have to be brought up all the time? I don’t mind her, but sheesh, this post ain’t about her. Anyway, personally I don’t think the performance was that good, but I don’t think it was that bad either. A definite improvement from that sham of a performance at the VMAs, but she still has a way to go yet imo. I’m looking forward to her performance on The X Factor this week though, so she best deliver, lol.

I’m a huge britney fan and if you aren’t going to sing (ie lip-sync), at least dance! All she did was walk around on stage. She’s better than that. On a brighter note, she looked fantastic.

People have the cheek to cuss of Beyonce !!!!! Beyonce gives a bigger booty shake with no props, two dancers and a leotard!!!
Britney needs to find her inner soul and pull her out the shell OR if that fails find a fake alter-ego and do something outer her comfort zone!
p.s. Bey gets mentioned cos she’s the QUEEN of music performance right now!!

i thought it was pretty good, the only thing that seperates britney’s performances from the past to now is that i believe then britney used to just come on stage and just rip it because she didn’t have anything to prove she was the queen now i think she’s so self conscious about seeing her name on every “BLOG” and tabloid that she’s like “i’m just sticking to the dance moves in there simplest form” which still is better than a lot of artists.

She is not doing enough dancing to be lip-synching. I actually like this song, but she could have done a lot more. I’m sure she didn’t forget how to dance. All her management have to do is get her some good choreography and she practice it like a manaic. Whether she dances or not, she is going to get criticised, so she should at least do something that will combat some of the negativity. Moving her arms around once in a while is not going to regain her reputation as an artist.

Britney needs to start promoting “Circus” already. It’s def something the public has been waiting for. It’s very “Me Against The Music 2008″ imho!
BRING FIRE, BRITNEY!

It was better than the VMA debacle. I am rooting for her big-time because she’s been through hell. It’s got to be nerve-wracking to make this comeback. Her smile at the end was so cute and genuine, like she hoped everyone enjoyed it. I also just wanna point out how great she looked!

SERIOUSLY GIVE HER A BREAK
THE CONCEPT OF HER ALBUM IS CIRCUS SO SHE IS LINKING IT WITH HER PERFORMANCE
IT IS VISUALLY ENGAGNING AND ATLEAST SHES NOT STOOD THERE MOVING STIFFLY COMPARED TO SOME OF THE SUCCESSFUL CONTEMPARY ARTIST WE HAVE AT THE MOMENT E.G RHIANNA!
SHES BEEN OUT THE GAME A WHILE SO NEEDS A CHANCE TO CATCH UP. ITS MUCH HARDER TO PLEASE THESE DAYS THAN IT WAS DURING HER PEAK
SHES NOT FAR FROM REACHING THE LEVEL AS LONG AS SHE IS ABLE TO SING LIVE AND KILL THE CHOREGRAPHY

I’m sorry but “Womanizer” is a very easy song to sing even when dancing. I would have liked to hear a live adlib at the LEAST!

I love Britney to death but she did not kill it with this performance I don’t know if she’s stiff or the choreography is stiff. Either there was no easy and smooth transition from one move to another or she was not flowing at all. She will get better though She’s Britney!

I think Britney is starting to get a feel of performing again in front of an AUDIENCE again Like others have said it’s just ONE performance. Get over it, stop complaining, bashing, etc And just wish her the best. I sure when she performs on the X-Factor this weekend, she will feel confident and not so much being nervous.

Agree – star academy performance much better, mainly because the crowd were going mad for her. I think the britney we know & love wont be back til this time nxt year or after. she's getting back in the swing of things slowly but surely i reckon. Hopefully 2nites X FACTOR stint will be a case of 3rd time lucky & she wont be so nervous.
