Our Bad, Britney Will Not Perform at the VMAs

Despite rumors from various sources, Britney Spears will not stage an epic comeback performance at this year's VMAs

Last week, we told you all about a special hairstyle Britney's mane man Kim Vo was preparing for an epic VMA comeback performance. Unfortunately, it turns out he was only speaking theoretically.

Brit's manager Larry Rudolph released this official statement today: "Contrary to media reports, Britney was never slated to perform on this year's VMAs. She's in the middle of recording her next album, which is going amazingly well, and her focus remains on the studio."

Of course, we went back to check with Vo if this was accurate and not some cover for a surprise performance, but he confirmed:

"Any ideas that we have about her hair are always theoretical. And we always have to be prepared. But she is not performing and so we don't have to worry about that."

So, it looks like we'll just have to wait for next year’s VMAs for Britney to redeem herself.
