well you won't see me posting here, but i've gotta say, that i always check what she releases, and this album surprised me a lot! It's the only decent, not boring one since In The Zone. And for some reason it actually gives me a bit of a vibe of the later. The vocals, even though at some parts a bit annoying, sound so much better than on anything she has been releasing. It finally sounds like she's actually singing! And the EDM isn't completely cheap sounding either. It has a bit more flavour to say it simply. The album has variety which is good. I wouldn't buy this, but i definitely enjoyed a few times i did listen to it. And that tells a lot knowing me lol

^ That was really funny! I just can't get over the fact that Britney looks her best right now.

So, Glory debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200, selling 111,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. I'm so happy for her!

Glory deserves so much more love than it's getting. I've had the album on heavy rotation since it leaked and I was honestly so blown away by it!

^ YES. It's seriously one of her best albums to date. Even the tracks I didn't like that much at first, I like them all now.

Also, I've been listening to Blackout a lot lately. I never noticed how good of an album it is. It's so dark.

She performed at IHeartRadio Festival this weekend.



Girl is really energetic! But her outfit choices are the worst And this hair..... i just can't. But overall it was an enjoying performance for those who never watched her PoM concert. Wish she had performed more musics from Glory. :~

I liked the outfit and hair. My favourite part was Toxic and Stronger, both were damn great!

I didn't like that performance. I know it's completely useless to complain about her lip synching skills but during some parts, her mouth was doing something completely different from the song. Like, TOO obvious.

The performance was good, I don't mind the lipsync because let's be real, she's not gonna sing live, the main problem is the fact that she still uses the album track vocals. Even the vocals for Femme Fatale Tour were quite believable.

Yeah.... she's not gonna sing live ever again. I hope that she sings other songs from Glory during iTunes Festival (or whatever the name). And stop using this lame mashup of "Make Me" and "Me, Myself and I".

Wish she get this short hair back.

I've mostly given up on Britney performances.
I never watch any live performances because to me she looks great and dances great but that's about it. I just don't get anything out of watching her live.
I would never pay money to watch someone lipsync.
Britney has a capable singing voice too, I wish she would sing live at least on occasion.

Just watched Apple Music Festival. The venue was amazing, the stage, the outfit, the dance, but everything else was ripped from Piece of Me. The same setlist, not even a new song, not even a single sang word, same messy hair. That's it. Bye.

I don't know why expect something different, it's pretty much the same thing she did with Rock In Rio, and Kylie also did this a couple of years ago with ther Kiss me Once Tour. Pretty normal to use the current tour/concert for the iTunes Festival.

I'll watch later, but it's good that we finally have professional footage of a good concert.

Agreed. I don't expect her to sing live and I don't mind lip synching at all, it just bothers me that it seems she doesn't put any effort into matching her lips to the song. She could take lessons from some RuPaul's contestants for example since they lipsync flawlessly.

I still can't take any Do you wanna come over? performance serious, she lipsyncs the male voice during the chorus. haha

I mean, she used to lipsync the Madonna part on MATM, but this is another level.
