@BananaSandwich1 This was back when he was controlled on NBC. At that time, it was not his decision who guests were. He had most of the SNL hosts as guests. I'll backtrack, I don't know if he thinks she's untalented, it's just not his kind of music. I also think he has a hard time relating to certain people. Also, if his sense of humor is not your cup of tea, it can certainly rub you the wrong way...andI think the fact that Britney didn't catch a lot of his jokes made it more awkward.
Only the legendary Ms. Britney Spears would know how the world would think of Baby One More Time more than a decade later. She said it was cheesy. You goot that right, Brit! and everyone thought it was too sexy. psh, look at the vids they make today.
GAWD! She was soooo perfect back then - sweet, innocent, grounded, chill, beautiful, fit, could actually sing live and of course dance her ass off - a living PERFECTION. I still blame that fat ass of Kevin Federline for ruining her. Him and her greedy suck ass mother. I'm glad she is doing a lot better nowadays than 3-2 years ago and I hope she will be back at the top one day.
wow how is it even legal to have a body like that? u know Conan's sidekick probably is masturbating off screen just staring at those legs. WOW she was a living barbie back then. thats crazy. 6:39-6:45 the best
Man was life so much more simple and amazing back then. Back in 2000 I was only 20 years old and life seemed to have so many possibilities. Now I'm 30 and already seen two insanely idiotic wars and an economy in the tanks - all three of which stole my twenties from me ! !
brit in her prime here is the hottest ever and these legs cant be beat. i would swim in shark invested water. run through hot coals just to smell her neck and kiss her once. hot hot hot
Britney before the mental breakdowns: Young, innocent, sweet, single, blonde, fit, pretty, successful, and at the top of her game in pop. Conan before the NBC disaster: Funny, crazy, fresh, doing his own thing, in New York, successful, and at the top of his game in late night ....oh the good old days. How I miss.
Even though it will never be like this again, wish them both the best. He is still crazy funny and she still has hits to come, so good luck to them. I am rooting for you.
britney is always cute barbie and more i dont know not sayin better but more: " ORIGANAL THAN jessica and slightly more popular azwell justin biebers stupid, and britney bimbo.
I HATE when people are judging her, the reason why she was today, or earlier during her shaving her head days, now she is seeming to change but, one factor is she has been in Showbiz for awhile now, & that makes most people crack, or well some, & then she didn't know that she was BI-POLAR, thats why she was like that! So, stop judging!
shes 18, and southern and really famous, what a nice girl.. hmm she kind of reminds me of miley cyrus :D i know they're different but in personal and professional lives they seem similar, no one would have guessed this girl would go crazy!
@TheBirdiebeachgirl yeah i agree people do need to leave her alone is has enough on her mine and enough to deal with she been in this tough business for years i can understand how she cracked
Wait until I'm doing the talk show circuit, all eyes will be on me. I think I'll start off with Letterman & Leno. Then I might agree to some other shows...
Why do you feel the need for such attention? You're selfish with no regard for those you hurt, much like the way a cancer cell works. I suggest you fix your deep rooted problems that cause you to behave in a way. You're only responding to your environment with the genes you've been given. If nothing will cause you to care about your impact then I suggest you question your existence. A life that only negatively impacts the lives of others is worse than meaningless.
Why do you feel the need to preach? And I positively impacted Sandra's life, by exposing her husband who has cheated with MANY women while Sandra has been married to him. If it wasn't for me, God knows how long his behavior would have gone on for. Better she find out now, than later, or never. Now she can get on with her life.
@st00pidness : that's difficult, she's been on the screen offically since the mickey mouse club, but you're probably talking about her solo singing debut, well... i doubt her mom even told the truth, but i haven't read the book myself so i'm just speculating, personally i think she lost it a bit AFTER her fame, just not sure with who, maybe that limp bizkit guy
andy something is his name i think lol he was a comedian back in the 90's i was to young to know he existed lol but ive heard of him and i think hes dead lol
She's sooo chill in this interview, lol. She's not even TRYING. I actually think it's kind of nice...she comes across as really sweet without forcing any smiles like she used to back then.
Britney has the best legs in the world. They're very muscular. Britney was awesome in this interview. She's so funny nad has a great sense of humor. Conan is hilarious.
Because shes goregous, and a good person. But your immature so you choose to go onto a Britney video, and obviously bash her. Grow up a little bit honey, its time to be a little more mature and respect others.
I'm not trying to bash her, honey. I just disagree with you when you say that Britney Spears is the most beautiful woman IN HISTORY, inside and out. Personally I would have chosen someone along the lines of Mother Theresa.
okay u could see why i sorta thought that u were attacking her. I understand wat u mean but im just saying 2 me shes the most beautiful person inside and out in the world, and I do mean everybody, in my heart she is.
oh ive seen those the everytime performance? in snl 2002 she sung im not a girl LIVE and boys i have those tried 2 upload them but they are restricted =(
Funny how she doesn't seem to like him here because she thinks he's weird. But then 4 years later...Bam!! She goes crazy and marries her friend in Vegas and shaves her head in '07 and who's the weird one now? I love both Britney and Conan, but I think we shouldn't judge others just because they're different.
Oh shut up with the Christina bashing. Why do people always need to bash other artist to bring up another? I love Britney and Christina both. They were both pretty girls.
why do people have to be so nice like saying how are you ? ohhh thank you im fine why cant people be like eyy what up .. if any one have the answer for this plz reply !!!!!!!
wow conan is a dick for no reason or is it just me?
