Britney Back on Stage! Lip Syncing with Passion!

We showed you a blurry look at Britney's San Diego performance as soon as we possibly could last night, but here's a little clearer view of what went down. As we mentioned, she was on stage for under 20 minutes, performing 5 songs (nothing new). I'm going to really try and reserve judgment on what little video I have seen (check out a little bit of it here and here), but I think it's safe to say that things are still a wee bit rusty. That's all to be expected, of course. All accounts say that she lip synced the whole way, to be fair though, that's pretty much always been her MO.

Britney's got at least three more House of Blues shows lined up -- Tonight in Anaheim, tomorrow on the Sunset Strip and Sunday in Las Vegas. It'll be interesting to see how she improves as she gets her performing legs back. If any of you are going, definitely tell us how it goes! There's a ton more pics of her dancing her tail off, so just read more

    She's real classy in her bra and mini skirt...not. Why is it so hard to find something decent to wear, even if it is a concert?

    She is one nasty looking creature, in these pix esp, and I really hope she flops out..I will never, ever understand people's devotion to this mess but fickleness when it comes to others who are far less a screwup than this thing!

    Since she did so few songs, you'd think she could polish them to perfection in the amount of time she has been at the studio.

    Pennylane.... I agree. Seemed like she may have jumped the gun- right into harsh criticism. And will someone please get the girl a stylist!?! This kind of makes me just want to cherish the old stuff of hers that I have, and leave it at that.

    It is sad that she is getting so much press for a crappy "performance" of her lip synching and dancing around like she is on one of those mall tours she used to do as a teenager. Shame on the House of Blues for paying her to play there.

    JustMe..haha I agree. For all the millions she has, I think she cannot put a semi-cute outfit on unless some extremely patient stylist comes to her rescue. I don't know what's so hard about not wearing a bra and cheap, ugly skirts and boots all day long when she can afford to be looking much better. Just another kooky quality about her.

    People with actual hot bodies, like Adriana Lima, Halle Berry, Heidi Klum, Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek, Catherine Zeta Jones, Jessica Biel, the gal from "Lost" (Evangeline something?), ETC ETC ETC all have great bodies and dress sexy while being classy...they they don't feel the need to walk around the town and in clubs wearing literally their underwear, maybe covered by some mesh, to show off their bods..then why does Britney think its cool to do?? Her body looks better than it has in a few years but still...we really don't care to see her in those nasty little, barely there clothes as she constantly try to show everyone "Look ya'll, I got skinnier!". All her trashy qualities are unbelievable.....blechhhh!! If any of you Britney fans are Paris haters by chance...take a second to compare how different they actually are...not that different at all.

    im not surprised it was rusty, she still has a long way to go. it doesnt matter what she does or what she looked like the fact that the club was sold out proves that she is still a bankable act
    wouldnt it be good if we could hop a flight to anywhere,so long to this life, so much fun pretending, cause bad luck's never endin

    I totally love her, but this just seems so sad...a pop princess who used to be on top of her game, filling up stadiums, and being responsible for the most awesome performances like the ones at the VMAs.....and now this? It looks like amatuer night at House of Blues, NOT like Britney Spears....ya know??

    WAY TO GO BRITTNEY!!!!
    I thought it was a good idea to do quickie concerts.
    Even if lip singing. With so much negative press about her, I'm sure these performances are to see if people will still come out to see her as what she really is..."An Entertainer".
    And I also think she looks great after two kids.
    Rock On!!

    I do not think that the fact that she sold out these shows proves that she is still a bankable star as other posters are saying. I think the reason these shows sold out was because people want to see the train wreck that she is.

    What a sad young woman...she just needs to stay out of the spotlight for awhile and focus on getting healthy and making sure her kids are being attended to.
    She's such a mess.

    People bought tickets either because a) they were EXPECTING a good show and are trying to convince themselves that Brit still has "it" [I think she never had it to begin with], or b) they wanted to see the train wreck in action.

    I think that instead of trying to do a comeback as her "not that innocent" younger self, she would do better to reinvent herself as a classier, more grown-up musician. I mean, honestly, it's hard to take a milf-y mother of two seriously as she shimmies around on stage in a streetwalker outfit. I think she's just inviting criticism by trying to recapture the old days--let them be and move on.
    That said, I don't think she's going to pull it off. Old habits die hard, and evidently cowboy boots are one of hers.

    first of all peeps, you guys act like she's never worn slutty clothes on stage before... ROFL hellloooo madonna and the bullet bras, christina ag and her WAAAY sluttier [non]clothes.... britney has always (even before kids) worn "stage clothing" on stage. granted she now wears them off stage(bad idea even in my book) but it's part of the show. get over it. yea she lip synched but at least she's not running and hiding! she gets bad press and she just keeps going. think back 20 years (all you 80's kids out there) and remember all the nasty bad press madonna used to get? from movie bombs to her and Sean breaking up? same thing, different generation. i congratulate her for at least getting back onstage and trying to do what she does best. entertaining!!
    i've got your back Brit!

    125 seems to be a lot of money just to watch a train wreck... especially considering that there are reports that people could have resold their 125 tickets for about 400.

    If she lipsynched her old performances, what's the difference now? Granted it was house of blue and not a huge stadium.

    Most reviews in the press (aside from the gossip sites) are pretty positive. Aside from her personal life, I think she should keep at the entertaining, it seems to be the one thing that's keeping her together. I don't think that 3 year hiatus was good for her morale.

    She looks like a drag queen impersonating Britney Spears.

    And I'm guessing she chose her own outfit.
