It took a year, but Britney Spears got the comeback she was seeking from the MTV Video Music Awards — and she didn’t even have to sing or dance.

Spears nabbed three VMAs, including video of the year, erasing last year’s career-low performance. Her first Moonman trophies came during a 25th anniversary show that otherwise lacked a defining moment, with most of the zaniness coming from host Russell Brand.

“Wow, thank you, I’m in shock right now. I was not expecting this,” Spears, looking spectacular in a shimmering silver dress, said as she accepted her third trophy of the evening for “Piece of Me.”
Spears kept all three of her acceptance speeches short.

“This is such an honor to have this award right now,” she said. “I want to thank my fans, this is dedicated to you.”

Ok, so when did the VMAs turn into the Britney Spears show? What is the big deal about her? Isn’t there any new talent out there that the kids want to listen to. I guess someone with big bucks has something invested in her that they could buy off the entire show and make it about her.

And what about that host, Rusell Brand? He was the worst host of the MTV music video awards ever. What has happened to MTV? The video music awards used to be something I couldn’t wait to watch, now I can’t even stand to watch five minutes of this crap.

Here is a little clip of when the VMA’s were good.
