Britney!\u00E2\u00BF\u00BFin an effort to get back in the game. Did they succeed? I say: Kinda. It\u00E2\u00BF\u00BFs hard to have a video awards show when the network only plays snippets of the same 20 videos. (The best thing anyone said all night was probably JT\u00E2\u00BF\u00BFs demand for more videos.)\n\nThe ongoing party/performance rooms concept seemed weird at first, but got better as the night went on. I think Justin, Kanye, the Foo Fighters, and Fall Out Boy were good choices to play throughout the evening. But since there was no real host, it was hard to tell what was going on and who singing/rapping/playing at times. (Or who was singing with Mark Ronson and his band.) So the changes to the format were good, but just seemed to need a little fine-tuning.\n\nLast, but not least, Britney. That was supposed to be her &amp;quot;comeback&amp;quot; performance? It seemed like she didn&amp;#39;t want to be there! She was making weird, uncomfortable faces the whole time, like she was trying to remember the meager choreography. Britney did not look like someone who\u00E2\u00BF\u00BFs been performing for over ten years.\n\n\n\nRemember a few years ago when she and Justin were king and queen of the pop world? His success and obvious enjoyment all night made her look even sadder. What did you think?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
