I dunno, folks. The shape looks okay. Most of the women I know would KILL to have this shape after delivering two kids in the past few years. Our stupid culture is setting the bar on "good looks" so damn high that no real woman can top it. Far as I'm concerned, Britney Spears has a LOT of problems, but how her body looks is not one of them.

But.... what's she doing in her underwear???? THAT ought to be the issue. God forbid my daughter appeared in public dressed like that. Luckily I don't think that'll ever be a worry for her, but still...

I am annoyed that the above is considered in good taste for public view. Not her body shape, her choice of outfit.

She needs to grow into her role of being a woman and now a parent. She needs to dress accordingly.

I don’t think she’s in shape to do that act. But she is in fine shape to be a human female.

In good taste for public view? Didn’t you mean “pubic view”? With Britney, Lindsey, Paris, etc., one should generally refer to the pubic view.

One problem is much of our entertainment and fashion industry is gay men. Who view androgynous shapes as sexier. Which imo is anti-fertility. Women dont’ want to allegedly wreck their figure by having more children.

In some ancient cultures a pregnant woman was viewed as a sex symbol of fertility.

I agree about that underwear.. I saw a video of Britney on youtube and she was in sweat pants, and a wool hat and t-shirt.. and imo she looked great. I was like wow I didn’t realize she was that good looking. Somehow the way they dress her and do her up seems to take away from her natural sexiness to me.

MTV's a joke.

It wasn't too bad when it was new:  music videos and  Liquid Television with Aeon Flux and Beavis and Butthead, et al.

But now it just sucks.  It's completely unwatchable.

I saw a video clip of Britney’s “peformance”. She looked stoned out of her mind.

I think her weight gain is only important because of what it tells us about the whole basis of her career. I don't think she's ever had more than two molecules of talent, yet people are slamming this performance like it's something new. God knows she's never been able to sing worth beans (everything she's ever done has been created in a studio and lip-synched to in "live" performances) so this was no different. People are talking about her lackluster dancing, but aside from the sloppiness and low energy, it was really no clunkier than her usual dancing (I saw her several years ago on Letterman, and remarked on how her choreography was nothing but a series of drill team style chucks, each one easy to spot because of the way she'd turn, stalk back to her tape mark, plant her feet, then launch into the next one. Fred Astaire must've been spinning nimbly in his grave at the claim that this was "dancing.")

So I contend that what she did on the VMAs was really no more incompetent than anything she's ever done before, except then she was doing it with a slender body, tight abs and a much firmer butt. That just kept most people from noticing how talent-deficient she really is. Take away the hot looks, and there's very little left.

For God's sake, they were in Vegas: they could have hired any one of 25 Britney impersonators or 5,000 strippers, and any of them could have done that routine better. After all, they do exactly the same thing for a living that Britney does: dance around with their clothes off to a prerecorded Britney Spears track.

“An out-of-shape, out-of-touch Britney Spears”

Out of shape? What kind of crack is the author smoking? Does he mean she isn’t a twig, but actually looks like a woman? No s**t sherlock... she isn’t 18 anymore.

She popped out 2 rugrats in the last few years and looks better than most women who have never given birth.

The performance was a mess. I saw it on Breitbart.

Considering Britney was one of the many tartlets in micro-minis and no undergarments who got out of autos like a cowboy throwing his leg over a horse, this outfit is a step up.

We may have been the impact of that culture with the weekend's story involving the Vanessa Hudgens girl from Disney's "High School Musical" having taken her own nude photos *while underage* in an effort to entice the interest of some actor on Nickelodeon who wasn't a boyfriend.

I suspect those photos leaked because she recently claimed to be a good role model by having kept her clothes on.

I think she has a drug/alcohol problem or has so form of mental disorder. something happened to her and some mental disorders don’t develop until later years for women. She doesn’t seem like the same person. On stage she didn’t look “with it” at all, more like a zombie.

I agree, she looks pretty good. But she doesn’t look good enough to be out parading around in her underwear. But very, very few people look that good.

Besides, her legs are too short. There is nothing she can do about that.

Britney missed a huge opportunity here. She could have come out on stage in a frilly white dress and sung some nice heart-felt ballads, and kick-started an entirely new phase to her career. She is simply not going to be able to run on the slut-track anymore. This should be good news to her, but she keeps denying it.

Maybe she could have gone for the Faith Hill semi-slut look. She could have pulled that off. But underwear and fishnets should be a thing of her past.

Yet, you went ahead and posted it anyway.

Overweight and underdressed; lip-synching that didn’t match and dance steps reminiscent of a first-year dance student.

Different outfit, more energy and she’d of been fine.
