Britney sweeps the VMAs

Britneeeeeey, the fans still love you. The pop star nabbed herself three VMAs.

Britney Spears has swept the pool at the MTV’s Video Music Awards, today picked up the best video, best pop video and best female video awards for Piece Of Me. It was a far cry from her fumbled 2007 appearance.

Spears, who has been nominated 16 times before but never won, thanked “God first and foremost for just blessing me like this.”

British comedian Russell Brand, who presented the live show despite being a virtual unknown in the United States, hailed the “launch of a very new Britney Spears era”.

“Consider this the resurrection of Britney Spears,” he said. “If there was a female Christ, it’s Britney.”

Spears thanked God, “my beautiful family, my two beautiful boys, for just inspiring me every day and my fans, this is for you”. She should have thanks How I Met Your Mother for helping restore her image.

She also paid tribute to her record label boss Barry Wise and her manager Larry Rudolf “for always believing in me” as she dedicated the top award to her “amazing fans out there for all of their support”.

“This means a lot,” she said.

Though not to be outdone by her long standing pop rival, Christina Aguilera put on a dazzling performance to launch her comeback.

The VMAs screened live on MTV in Australia today and are repeated tonight at 8pm.

  1. Go Britney. She was beautiful at the VMA’s and im happy she won those awards. Many cheers for her from the crowd and standing ovations too. Congrats to her. Im not ashamed to admit, i’ll always be a huge fan of hers.

  2. Yay! I love Britney. I’m so glad she’s herself again.

    David, Do you know by any chance if Channel 10 will be screening the VMA’s this year? Since they normally air them about 2 weeks after they’ve aired.
