Buzz about Britney Spears and the 2008 VMAs

Britney VMAs 2007We know Britney Spears will attend MTV's Video Music Awards because she is up for two awards. We also know she taped a promo for the awards with her and an elephant. The L.A. Times Gold Derby blog reports that the issue of whether Britney Spears will still perform is up in the air. However, the Times does remind us that Britney's miserable performance in 2007 was a ratings boom for MTV.
While appearing with a 900-pound elephant, nobody can call Britney Spears fat again when she's doing a MTV gig.

But that is Britney's costar on the TV screen while dishing with Russell Brand, the little-known British comic who's hosting the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards. It's one of the cheeky promos teasing the Sept. 7 event.

At one point Brand suggests that there is sexual tension between them, but Britney shrugs, "I didn't feel any tension." Wait . . . that supposed to be hilarious, right?

And wait again. Does this mean that Britney will be performing again at the crazy kudofest?
The question is does MTV wan't a ratings boom again? That answer has to be yes and Britney would no doubt like to redeem her troubled performance in 2007.
