It's Britney, b**ch! Despite her rep shooting down rumors, we're still hoping that Britney Spears is going to hit us, baby, one more time with a surprise performance at the 2011 Grammy Awards on February 13. It's been over two years since the Pop Princess' last live performance, and we're beyond ready for the 29-year-old mom-of-two to make a comeback (again). And if we know Brit as well as we think we do, we know she'd make a spectacle while performing her latest single, "Hold It Against Me." C'mom Britney! Show some serious game at the Grammys and give us a glimpse of the newFemme Fatale! Seriously-it's hard to believe Grammy producers would ignore the buzz around her new album - "Femme Fatale" is one of the top 10 longest running trending topics on Twitter EVER.
To get in the mood for some LIVE Britney action, check out this Southern golden gal's top five best live moments! (We would have mentioned Brit's 2001 duet with the late Michael Jackson at his 30th anniversary concert, but, as he did more crotch grabbing than she did, we felt it didn't warrant a 'best-of.')
1. The Make-out
Who can forget the epic Madonna-Britney make-out session during the 2003 VMAs? While performing Her Madgesty's hit "Like a Virgin", the Queen passed the pop baton on to the Princess - through her lips. The best part: watching Britney's then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake's expression as he realized his lady love was getting it on with a girl!
2. The Snake
Clad in nothing but glitter and grape leaves, Britney panted her way through the sexiest performance of her career at the 2001 VMAs. After donning an actual boa (the snake, not the scarf) while performing "I'm A Slave 4 U" all we can say is … if Britney was going for an Adam and Eve revival, she definitely had eaten from the fruit of knowledge!
3. The Circus
Britney celebrated her 27th birthday on December 2, 2008 with a blowout bash on GMA. As the ringmaster, Brit was flanked by fire and dancers as she performed hits "Womanizer" and "Circus" off of 2008 album Circus. Really, what better way is there to celebrate?
4. The Super Bowl
Imagine the weirdest musical pairing possible, and you've got Britney's performance at the 2001 Super Bowl. Alongside then BF-JT's band 'Nsync, Mary J. Blige and Aerosmith, and clad in a half-football Jersey shirt, Brit and the crew performed Aerosmith's hit "Walk This Way" at half-time. Yes, it was as awesome as it sounds. Based on their successful past performance, perhaps new judge Steven Tyler can convince Brit to perform on American Idol this season?
5. The Nude Suit
Picture this: Britney is performing The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" at the 2000 VMAs in a jaunty, masculine suit when she suddenly rips her clothes off to reveal - nothing? That's what it looked like to viewers at home, at least. In reality, Brit was wearing a flesh-colored bodysuit, but she still managed to make jaws drop while her initial song morphed into her "Oops!...I Did It Again." Yes, Britney, about that, at least, you would be right!
Say it with us ... BRITNEY SPEARS AT THE GRAMMYS!
