Britney looked happy and so excited to win this award…I loved her dress and hair, but the only gripe I have about any of them, is their Thanking GOD, first thing………..GOD, did not make them win anything, and most of the people or winners probably have NOT set foot in a church or read a bible in years, if at all…..Considering the life style some of them lead, it wouldn’t hurt…….It makes them silly looking to stand up and say, ” OH, I want to thank God.”………..Just thank the people around you and your family, THEN move on !!!!

she looks good.

and, i would also like to thank Jordin Sparks. i saw where she just came on to announce….something….and the first thing she said was, “Alright, I just have one thing to say about promise rings. It’s not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody, guy or girl wants to be ****.” hahahahahahaha! you tell ‘em, Jordin! :D

This is ridiculous. She’s winning every award. This show is so rigged – the same videos nominated, the same people win. I wonder how much money drops under the table. JT paid for it all last year; I guess this year BS is funding the show.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

Honestly. I didnt expect this.

I’m so proud of her. I’m glad she’s going to make a comback.
Give her more credit.

she went through a rough patch. She’s back now.
she’s back to get back the spotlight that she shouldve had for the longest time.

petris you need to leave your ugly commets to your self.

Brittney is back the way she was, you can see it in her. The others all were happy for her they see that she is in a good place right now, that the Brittney that we all loved is back. She is happy and she is also going back after her kids which is a good thing for all concerned, because K-Fed is a jerk.

Brit deserved everything that she received tonight.

Briteney looked wondeful. Noraml. She sounded normal. good for her because I really thought she was going to die. Lyndsay got herself together. Whocares if she is not with a girl. It seems to be good for her. Britney now needs to retire away for a year. She needs to just let show business go.
Demi Grandma Moore. Why was she there? Old perople. I lie her becaus eshe is , nevermind ,but MTV is so age conscious. It must be bad being Rumer Willis when your mom is Demi adn she looks 30.

Congratulations to Britney Spears!

This is demonstration of how critical loving parents are in the lives of even adult children. Wishing Britney, her children, her parents (especially her father), Larry Rudolph, and the other professionals who truly hold her heart close to theirs the best in the times ahead.

Wishing Britney great success as a mother of those two precious little boys!

This HAG’S career is OVER and has been for sometime now. It’s sad that they’re giving her the “CHARITY” and sympathy awards and letting her think she still has it. She’s ugly and smelly and people will NEVER forget that she’s crazy, was bald and exposed her NASTY ******. She should go far, far away.

Wow…….no hope for ignorant people….

First off Britney is NOT fat!!!!!

Second Britney has had a year of mistakes in the public eye it shows that she is human the fact that she is doing this good after only a couple of months is damn good!!!! She deserved those awards!!!

and for reals if you don’t like her why comment on this blog thats about her. GET A LIFE.

she has fans that support her no matter what and I’m one of them!

First of all..

Britt went through a lot..I’m not making an excuse for what she did..but it all came crashing to her.

one min shes a pop star next her husband left her. cmon.

cut her some slack.

she deserved that..because who do you know could come back from ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL Of the **** she went through?

No one.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

I hate to say it but the VMAS are really fixed. Especially this year.

Britney Spears won over Rihanna and Mariah Carey tonight…two MAJOR CHICKS that are hot in the game right now. It was simply charity. I mean seriously? Pieces of Me? That song and video didn’t hit the market anywhere…

Britney was nominated 19 times for her hits like “Baby One More Time”, “Oops…” “I’m a Slave..” and yet she never won, and yet the VMAS expects me to accept the fact that she won VIDEO OF THE YEAR because it was the best?! Hell No

Chris Brown was robbed for VIDEO OF THE YEAR. I can’t go anywhere without hearing “Forever” on someone’s ringtone or someone blasting the hell out of it.

Forever was Summer’s Anthem.

i was just wondering.. did she get an award cuz a lot of disasters happened and she’s in good shape now and mtv still wants her to keep on getting better, that’s why she gets an award.. or did she really get better as an artist..?

cuz before she was always nominated. but she never won.

First … She looked Great. Second….. She should have won because her cd was Great. Her time was due. She probably should have won a while back too. Her cd was overshadowed by all of her personal drama. Still it was a banger from beginning to end. IMO …. Also….. I have not heard Chris Brown’s song forever yet…..although Im sure its good.
