All was not well with Britney at the VMA's

Thursday, September 13, 2007

London (ANI): Britney Spears lost her cool moments before her hopeless MTV Video Music Awards performance, for she went ballistic at her hairdresser after having a look at her hairdo for the show. Sources claim that Britney"s rage had reached to such an extent that she had to be given anti-depressants by her doctor. “The scene in the dressing room before the show was one of absolute blind panic. She knew she hadn"t rehearsed enough and was going to mess up the whole show and possibly her career — then she saw her hairdo and it was the final straw,"

The Sun quoted a source, as saying. “She went into a wild rage and started lashing out at everyone — including her stylist," the source added. The source further said that attendees at Las Vegas" Palms Casino resort fetched Britney a doctor, who gave her the prescription drugs. “Britney took enough to floor an elephant. They calmed her down — but were clearly too effective," the source said.

The singer"s much-hyped come-back performance of new single 'Gimme More" was severely panned by critics, who branded the act “bored" and “glazed" as she forgot dance moves and lip-synched out of time.
