Britney Spears Performs 'Hold it Against Me' on 'GMA' (03.29.11)

[TheSAMofficial]

this is embarrassing.

[AtiEmss]

She's singing LIVE !

[erikk78333]

This performance really sucked. All she's doing is slowly walking around the stage & flipping her hair.

[castillojaz]

you call that dancing? :( she can't dance......

[m45n45]

SHE CAN DANCE NOW.

[ryade94]

I prefer watch Britney Spears "Circus" On GMA 2008 than that shit !

[leightonplusfield]

this was like see Britney in slowmotion

[alysher5]

@leightonplusfield true, I see what you mean, she kinda of lost the spark!

[nathybe123]

2:53... PIKACHU! xD

[Ericcaspears]

Deveria saber descer direito as escadas pelo menos.

[toxiiikoh]

LIVE <3 !

[BadSM1]

live? oO

[Billakooos]

@BadSM1 yeah,that's live,she is singing over the track.

[EMmEe94]

omg...the child is there at 3:13 *feels sorry for humanity* 

[Zeebra92X]

dont care if shes singing or not.. shes still my idol =D

[thatshillarious]

The sound is echoing because her MIC IS ON.

[aylabyutyub84]

the sounds are echoed, lack of preparation i guess, but the crowd is still amazed to see Britney perform onstage

[TheBfanatic]

i think in some parts is live like in the FFT because sometimes her voice cracks

[Y05H1ROX]

@TheBfanatic its pre-recorded. Its kind of obvious because the microphone has no reverb (which is required for live performances)

[UliRedeker]

@Y05H1ROX Sorry but if there is reverb I want my money back. I saw a lot of rock performances, non of them had a reverb. But it might be pre-recordded, but if she does I bet my ass Madonna, Rihanna and even Gaga does! Pop is a big show nothing is real. And If you have reverb at a 100$-concert you should get your money back! (That's what sound engeneers are for)

[jjoeshaw]

@UliRedeker There's nothing wrong with reverb, it's usually natural from the arena...

And Rihanna and Gaga don't use pre-recorded tracks...

[BritneySpearsTube1]

If You Want More Britney Take A Look At My Channel

[netanelnhom]

איזה כוסית את כוסית אששששששש



[FaresFatale]

Hold It Against Me on Femme Fatale Tour >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This

SOOOOOOOO MUCH

[AngelDeathred]

NOT live. That's HIAM's main vocal version :/

[103rain]

does she ever not lip sync ????

[izzykunv3]

@103rain

Yes. Search "me against the music TRL performance" And Watch The First One.

[fAmouSaLiN]

wow,i cant believe she is singing LIVE!

[meinteil123viv]

@fAmouSaLiN Playback. It's clear, just hear when she ''singing'' and when she says ''Thank you''. Do you hear the major audio defference ? +, you can't sing perfectly live when your voice is mixed in studio.

But, at the end, it's my opinion.

Have a nice day.

[5thejurassic]

Horrible performance, that was really bad!

[brang92]

QUEEN OF POP

[MrVicky289]

@brang92  yesssssssssssssssssssssss

[Bfansforever]

she's singing over track people!! WHY YOU CAN'T HEAR THAT??? I hate when the STUPIDS says that she is making playback... I mean WAKE UP!! she can sing!!! and dance to!!! Don't be a looser!! and stop to envy her... she is beauty, and she can sing... SHE IS PERFECT!!

[jjoeshaw]

@Bfansforever Singing over track is playback

[Gaston7848]

@jjoeshaw Then lady gaga beyonce madonna also do playback ;)

[SaucisseMerguez]

laughable

[TheBookVlogger]

I love Brit and maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like her heart is in it anymore. Her dancing is eh and I used to buy all of her CDs, but even her songs have been eh for me. I keep hoping that one of these days I can go "Yeah, Britney is back!" but it just hasn't happened.

[MrkizaBrate]

She is SINGING with help of playback. Turn your ears on and start listening.

[TheM3cky]

dat playback

[ivan9012cuc]

PLAYBACK

[MoOoDe28Pop]

OMG

so sexxy +amazing

i love u brit

xoxo

[tiagobobo]

she´s really singing some parts, or am i wrong?

[GagaFlopThisWay]

HATERS GONNA HATE THEY SAY = PLAYBACK HAHAHA

[Juxtapose713]

i love britney, i dont know why she stopped dancing like she used to, dancing is her first love

[MarexVEVO]

playback 

[simixinha]

legal

[AtiEmss]

Why don't you want to understand it ? ARE YOU DEAF or wtf ? She's totally singing live at this performance

[andrewcyrusful]

im wondering if she's lip singing ? cause it sound's to uh what do you call it anyway . but the soung quallity i sto good and when she talked at the end you can hear the diffrence so she was lip singing .

[stefybri64]

She is so fucking amazing! I love you, B, no matter what they say!

[98raihana]

no offence but she is not putting much effort in her dance

[RogerLuis11]

IT'S BRITNEY, BITCH ♥

[weporelmundo]

Is britney bitch

[yoga21211]

@weporelmundo no

[neonlights777]

her dancing got 10x better throughout her tour.

[CephasPeople]

Love her, but she is SO lazy. Like, c'mon Britney, where'd the dancing go?

[Spank103092]

@CephasPeople i love her too, but im pretty sure if you had to get up that early you wouldnt wanna dance either lol

[SuperKaleb13]

HER TOUR WAS AMAZING!!!

[alakazamfan123]

Is she singing live? Because it appears that she is.

[megustaeltinman]

@alakazamfan123 no

[mrduffos]

@alakazamfan123 no, shes not

[CA22308]

Godney <3

[james28291]

everyone look up the video of her performing hold it against me in orlando... she KILLS it... completely different than this.

[OKzs]

@james28291

Yes but its still a shame, she or whoever cheorographed this could have done SO MUCH with the breakdown at 3:30 - 4:00 such a waste, it would not have even required much dancing, but they wasted it with that chair

[ydna20003]

this was at the beginning of the era. she improved a lot on tour!! <333333

[nicholasts11]

Recently I've realized, although we all would like her to dance like she did "back in the day". Its not going to happen. So move on. SHE IS WHAT SHE IS and we love her.

[JosesiithoSodi]

si aun ers mi pricesa del pop xd no t cambio x Gaga... I love you Britney <3

[HFTigg]

She pulled it well..femme fatale is on the sexy side and her audience here are mostly young kids..probably she's holding back on the slutty choreography for the sake of the young audiences..love her for that!! She's a real artist:)

[itsnotachic]

@HFTigg no she just cant really dance like she used to

[ebviewer]

@HFTigg Ok. I love Brit but let's not kid ourselves. She did not "hold back" because of the audience. Wake up fans, she's not the same Britney. Take it or leave it.

[sls9924974]

TOO MUCH CAMERAS!!! :D

[lilmoizzle10]

hey guys if u wana see the TRUE REAL DANCENEY to "HIAM", then check this out

Link: /watch?v=sjwOPXLG_AU

[KevinRRose1]

Awful

[bridalopez2009]

Ojala se den cuenta de que ella no es una mama mounstruo ni nada d eeso, pues a duras penas puede con sus propios miedos!.....Asi que sin ofender, mejor salgan del hueco fanaticos de gaga y no se conformen con esa condicion pues el que tengan un vocero no indica que esa condicion esta bien........ademas gag puede sobrellevarlo porque esta tapada en el dinero que ustedes le dan al comprar sus albumes, pero ustedes que tienen?

[clue0009]

@bridalopez2009 pff todo lo que dices tiene mucho de verdad.. pero creo que no es necesario que sea comentado ya que es mas que evidente, es mejor respetar y cada quien.. soy fan de britney y tambien me gustan algunas canciones de Gaga pero lo cierto que dices es sobre el brillo en cada artista.

[bridalopez2009]

Y la verdad no s eporque porque es guapa sin eso encima y con el talento que Diso le dio, tal vez si fuera ella al natural podriamos ver algo de brillo......Ahhh y por si van ainsultarme, tambien quiero decir que es famosa y tiene tanto respaldo, no tanto e spor la musica, sino por la cantidad de gente que se halla identificada con ella, y lastimosamente, no por lo positivo, sino por las inseguridades y todas esas cosas...........

[bridalopez2009]

Bueno, esto e spara los fans de Britney...espero no encontrar comentarios adversos y sin fundamento de los fans de Lady gaga, porque lo cierto es que por maas talento que digan que tiene y etc.......le falta algo con lo que Britney nacio y es gracia, brillo de estrella. Y lady gaga lo sabe, por eso se cubre detras de vestidos de carne y pelucas, es una insegura y se esconde detras de su disfraz.....

[bridalopez2009]

La verdad no se como logra hacer todo lo que hace en su condicion, tres albumes y dos giras mundiales con todo eso encima?...Por Dios!!! si la mayori de los artistas que no tienen ni la mitad de carga encima no hacen ni una tercera parte!!!

Me gustaria seguir viendo mas d eBritney y hasta soñaria con ver a la antigua brit sobre el escenario, porque nacio para brillar...pero, tal vez por su bienhestar sea mejor hacer lo que ella decia en su cancion de MonaLisa, dejarla ir...a casa.

[bridalopez2009]

Para controlarlo debe permanecer bajo prescripcion medica y dicha prescripcion tiene los siguientes efectos colaterales: 1. La deja como ida o zombie, 2. sus movimientos pueden ser descoordinados o hasta verse un poco robotizados. 3. Le permite ganar peso con muchisisima facilidad....Como ven, como podriamos esperar tener a la misma Britney de antes?, si su enfermedad, la droga y la inseguridad por la critica constante no se lo permiten?.......

[bridalopez2009]

despues de partos (por laa depresion postnatal), al consumir sustacias psicoactivas (todos sabemos que lo hizo), mas el deterioro cerebral (por la droga para caballos que uso para adelgazar). Con todas estas condiciones, cumplidas en Brit, la bipolaridad se desarrolla y no tiene reversa hasta donde se me ha indicado.

[bridalopez2009]

Pero me temo que nos quedaremos esperando porque la situacion de Britney es al siguiente: Ella padece un trastorno de bipolaridad (por eso todo el asunto de la "locura"), esto es una predisposicion genetica, sin embargo se acrecenta la posibilidad al pasar por situaciones muy tensas emocionalmente( ruptura con Justin y el asunto terrible de Kevin),

[bridalopez2009]

y sin embargo a muchos no nos resulta suficiente ya que conocemos a una Britney que es Impresionante, en toda la extension de la palabra, asi que por mas que queramos ser comprensivos con la situacion actual, la verdad es que es imposible quedarse esperando un poco mas de ella....como queriendo que depronto d ela nada esa Britney pre-KFed resurgiera y todo fuera como lo recordamos.

[bridalopez2009]

Y lo peor es que es como si la imagen que tuvieramos de ella en el pasado fuera su peor enemiga, puesto que aunque aunque sus actuaciones no son ni sombra de las de antes, lo cierto es que si son mil veces mejor que las de muchas artistas actuales(sino recordemos el performance con Rihana, con dos sacudidas de cadera de Brit, hizo mas que Ri en toda la presentacion o selena o miley que no dan tres pasos de baile con destreza),

[bridalopez2009]

Ya no canta en vivo (supongo que por algo de inseguridad), ya no baila como antes, y no solo esoo sino que su chispa esta muy dimitida.....Tan solo en la expresion de su rostro y en su mirada podemos ver que es como si no estuviera.

[bridalopez2009]

Soy fan de Britney y casi se podria decir que soy adicta a sus performances y su musica....Pero aun asi y con tristeza debo decir que Brit no es la misma y no para mejor. Es naturalmente talentosa, nacioo con una buena voz y gran destrza para la danza, ademas de ser hermosa, tener muy buen gusto musical, ser sensual y tener esa gracia natural que atrae y gusta.....Sin embargo, hoy dia hay mucho de eso que esta opacado y que se quisieramos volver a ver.

[carlosantos95]

I love her performance.... I love you Britney Spears.....you are a great artist since 90's up to now.... LOVE YOU!!!! :)

[Elvis902]

saudades desse figurino pois na minha opinião é mais bonito que o atual ! :S

[dancindude03]

shes amazing! and the femme fatale tour was SO much better!! i love britney!!!

[b3r3ny]

she don't moves a lot in this show but in the femme fatale tour was AMAIZING! I LOVE U BRITNEY! <3

[spacebritney]

I STILL LOVE YOU!!!

[saadsiddiquekhan]

BRITNEY SPEARS IS A WORST SINGER I SAW

[teebaybee123]

WORST SOUND QUALITY EVER 

[annaDANCEDx]

She was sick during this performance..

[SheldonBruckMUA]

I am almost positive she was sick by this performance and that's why she seems very uninterested and the dancing was way below her usual.

If you watch the commercial she shot for this performance, she sounds like she has a really bad cold (also during her MTV Special "I Am The Femme Fatale")

Her dancing and performing on The Femme Fatale Tour is 1000x better than it is here.

[whiteipod2000]

BRITNEY WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!

I don't get it, she lost her spark, she lost that stage presence. How is it possible that you're 30 (then 29) and can't dance, don't dare use age as an excuse. Jennifer Lopez lacks vocal ability, but can dance, Micheal Jackson well into his 50s could dance. Britney is stiff, and fake looking, she lost her charm that I loved. I still love Brit, but seeing her perform kills me every time. What happened to one of the biggest pop icons of all time?

[e203sa]

@whiteipod2000 lol i take it u havent been to the femme fatale tour...this was stiff compared. The girl needed to break into her skin again, jeez crusify the poor woman why dont u. U act like this is the end of britney, have u ever thought about the fact that this might be just an era where she decided to take it easy a bit, her tour was more live singing from britney that ive seen in a long time. I give her props she's doing amazing. who else do u know who can more their hands like that

[nicholasts11]

@e203sa i agree!

[bridalopez2009]

@whiteipod2000 The problem is her bipolarity.....You can reed my comments y you understand all about Britney´s condition....uhmmm, but you could need a translator....

[MsBritneyspearslove]

@whiteipod2000 what happened?! humm lets see the public tears her apart after everything she does, even when she was on top of her game, she had a horrible break up from a jackass, she got diagnosed with by polar so she has to take meds which makes her stiff but hey for her to still be doing world tours after all the shit she went through I'd say its amazing...and who knows she may go back to that spark she had once she gains confidence again

[mayriner]

what happened to her dancing skills

[BlahBlahBlah13623]

@mayriner i know right ! look how she moves her arms "up and around her head" at 4:44, that's just lazy!

[mayriner]

@BlahBlahBlah13623 hahahaha

[PamelaJohanna]

She's still amazing! ♥

[hasv97]

epico!

[yeahwhatevaah]

it's NOT live people... it's not the album vocals but it's still pre-recorded...

[SuperKaleb13]

@yeahwhatevaah um shes singing over the vocals dumbass.

[BlahBlahBlah13623]

@yeahwhatevaah so you're saying that she records another version of the song different to the album version so that people think she's singing live?

[keaylacool]

sorry to say this, i respect briteny but i wonder does anyone notice how far she's fallen from like 12 years ago my god she has gone waaaaaaaaaaayyy to generic

[patt1590]

i love britney!! the crowd look like an iphone ad

[XstayingstrongX]

Brits "Comeback" Never Ended since Circus LMAO but were sure loving every second of it

[AlexHeartBrit27]

Oh my God! She dances great here! And it's live!! :D

[QueenPat09]

She doesn't have to dance with a swim suit and with heels.. I think if she changes those with pants and rubber shoes, it'll be much better!! And I suggest her management to change her choreographers, too... F*ck them they don't know how to make a GREAT dance..

I love BRITNEY anyway <3333

[AtiEmss]

100% LIVE !!!! 

[JonJTibbs]

I just love the intro to this concert ... <3 <3 <3 ... It reminds me of the beginning of a new Era ...

[1Misstwilight]

what does team britney think of this ?

why put her on stage ?

[JhonConnorT1000]

fake bitch.

[jok15690]

I LOVE how in her femme fatale tour her performance and presence boosted! Was it stage fright on GMA or smthg? coz when i went to her concert it was NOTHING like that

[lilmoizzle10]

if u guys want the old BRIT, then here she is "HIAM"

Link:  /watch?v=sjwOPXLG_AU

[zuusiej]

[Justinmak98]

[citrick94]

[thannnia1]

[Nezaable]

I don't belive in god...but this is what i'd call a Goddess. :)

[cutecassandra1989]

i love her she i so so sexy but she nees to get back to how she used to be if her fans are paying to see her she has to atleast sing or dance losing full respect for her x

[natalia9316]

@cutecassandra1989 too true. She stopped dancing. and sings not live anymore. I went to her concert in Toronto - it was a disaster.

[andesh742]

@roguekid431221 hahaha the pikachu is very funny

[dusan9271]

fuckin' playback >-<

[roguekid431221]

2:53 a wild pikachu appeared no seriously look in the crowd theres a pikachu i never thought hed be a fan of britney unless she has fans of all species:D

[roguekid431221]

im not sure if shes lipsyncing or singing cause i hear breathing but some sound exactly like the studio

[katt1982]

@roguekid431221 did you wonted to hear something diff

she did record the song so why would it sound like somethin else

[20Joshie08]

@roguekid431221 Me too :D

[lockito123]

damn this pure shit comparing to the femme fatale tour

she forgot so much moves woow

[1995StG]

@1995StG and if u don't like her so y r u even watch her?

[silence01temp]

this isn't live she can't sing live oh gosh she let me down now

[superdonniee]

en el femme fatale tour es mucho mejor!

[Regina46433]

amazing!

Britney still the best

[lukinh1990]

queen the pop

[xndriu]

love her <3EPIC PERFORMANCE

[Axelou68]

La c un live :D

[AtiEmss]

I Love her! whatever happens

[thetziebaby]

if u dont like britney why keep on commenting??!!!

[chicklit98]

all britney does is to bang her head? what a graceful dancer *sarcasm*

[beatleg818]

I never understand why if you cant hardly move in high heels, you would try to dance on tv in them.

[Superstaer]

if you listen to this and listen to the track..you can tell her mic is on. i sometimes wonder if people are deaf.

[BadSmoothCriminal50]

@Superstaer I agree. Especially at the 1:45 mark you can tell the mic is on.

[BriDneyn]

Ok, why do people record this type of events with their crappy phones

when they know that there are professionals who are filming it PROFESSIONALLY? So annoying...

[EarthSensation]

@BriDneyn perfectly TRUEEEE...like your opinion..;)

[luccas2424]

Eu te amo. <3

[luccas2424]

GOSTOSAAAAAAAAAAA

[Messylin]

I STILL believe.

[adulray]

when you watch this performance and then the same performance on her tour..its SOOO OBVIOUS that she has her mic on in the Femme Fatale Tour..SOOO OBVIOUS LOL

[albertbtw]

all the people need to see her in her femme fatale tour....she sinng and dance...and do this at the same time...britney is back baby!!!

[ItsCoreyBitch]

So many people including myself wish she could dance the way she used to, but think about it, she could've died back in 2007 with the way things were going, be happy she's healthy and still doing what she loves for the people that love her. Sure I wish she could drop it like a hood back in her In the Zone days but I love her nonetheless. Stay strong Brit Brit <3

[Superstaer]

@ItsCoreyBitch You sound like Me... Wanna be besties?!

[ItsCoreyBitch]

@Superstaer Sure :)

[camiloarboleda0225]

this doesnt even compare to the femme fatale tour

[SoDamnBionic]

NO SINGING

NO DANCING

NO BRITNEY

THIS IS WHAT I CALL FAKE POP MUSIC

[BadSmoothCriminal50]

@SoDamnBionic She's obviously singing live, you can hear the chorus and if you dont believe she is here than watch her sing and dance on the Femme Fatale tour >>>>> /watch?v=znLXEuqta8M

[SoDamnBionic]

@BadSmoothCriminal50 she's not singing live, is obvious. she's triying to sing with the back ground cd version on. that's not sing live

[81silversiren]

i love britney from when she first started to now & im glad shes back, yeah ppl may say stuff about the way she does her performances now but just give her time get back into swing of things again, she may suprise ya =D

[dikkedoei1979]

she used to be a good dancer in the past. But this is really terrible. What is wrong with her? Is she on medication? Her movements are slow and uninspired.

@dikkedoei1979 She went through some tough times over the years and she is getting back in to it
