CELEB BUZZ: Britney Spears Embraces Normalcy!


I've been hoping for months (well, a year and a half), and it appears that my long hoped Britney Spears comeback has FINALLY is kicking into some serious high gear.

The first step was these very harmless MTV VMA promos that she shot with host Russell Brand - and a 300-lb elephant in the room (nice touch!). Effortless is one word that comes to mind. Adorable is another. Funny is a third.

But I'm having second thoughts wither her cooperation with these ads--I dunno if she will participate in a show that was host to her "Gimme More!" breakdown last year. Personally I think she should show up, maybe present an award and hopefully pick one up as well for Best Female Video, or even, Video of the Year and leave performing alone! For now at least. Hehe. Now what are your thoughts?

VIDEOS: Rate and Rank MTV's VMA Nominees for Best Dancing in A Video


In all hip-hop / disco circa/ techno/ whatever fashion, these music videos made a mark in this year's MTV Video Music Awards... Which one of these are you rooting for to win? 

* free download of each of the songs

MORE TO FOLLOW INSIDE








Chris Brown moves at the speed of light into eternity in 'Forever,' a video whose dazzling visuals and driving beats dare you to sit still. | Download song




Sexy silver-clad sisters Danity Kane take you to the clouds in their futuristic (and pink!) video for 'Damaged. | Download song





You heard of her? She's blonde? Muscular? Not only did Madonna pack her '4 Minutes' clip with mind-boggling effects, she topped it off with Timbaland and Justin Timberlake. Genius. | Download song




Neo-soul stud Ne-Yo whispers in your ear in the stark and stylish video for 'Closer.' Choice lyrics provided for sing-along. | Download song





Caution: Do not try this at home. Pussycat Dolls make dancing across cars in a traffic jam look like child's play. The fact of the matter is that they're trained professionals. | Download song


I'm betting Chris Brown's Forever or Ne-yo's Closer to win this category of the 2008 MTV VMA's. But we never know... Who are your bets?
