I think Duca makes a good point. The GMA performances for Circus were rather effective because she looked great and the performances were actually really good so if she does maybe 2 or 3 promo performances for album 8 and their top notch then she'll definitely benefit.

I think FF would of opened with over 300K had the promo never been done. Predictions went down after the performances.

Originally posted by Aleks Of course the top priority is good quality music, but I do want her to be successful and sell a lot of records. I mean as a stan, how can you completely not care about that?

I'm convinced by that tbh. Like I said, it was more anti-promo.

And I agree that her team is absolute **** at doing promo that doesn't even involve Britney. I mean Target deals, billboards, general awareness that the record is out. FF had pretty much nothing. It was just such a mess of an era, hopefully they just wanted to get it out of the way and era #8 will be the real deal.

Originally posted by Duca I really think that a great -- or even a good -- VMAs performance would do wonders for Britney.The 2007 performance was unfortunately memorable and ultimately ruined her credibility as a performer. There’s no need to put her on every single show. If the performances are good, they will gets lots of buzz and positive feedback.

I've been saying/thinking this for the past five years. All the women needs in order to get the worlds attention is to give the world a top notch performance. The public loved/talked about Britney for her performances.

Britney doesn't need to do interviews, xfactor, etc.....all she needs to do is give the world a great performances.

Her team is the pits why would they let her keep performing so mediocrely? They are hurting her image instead of helping it. I'm sure they are only in it for the money at this point, seeing how Larry is a flop ever since the first couple of eras.

Originally posted by Duca Exactly! Her team seems straight-up incapable of proper promotion at this point. So many things went wrong last era, it was tragic.

Originally posted by Anthony K. Aleks is right, but some "stans" use the fact that we want her to be successful as an excuse to say "oh, you only care about sales, you're not a real fan" - **** that, I want her to be on top of the world on every aspect, and that includes sales.

Originally posted by Britney Spears Also performing Big Fat Waste on GMA was a big mistake. The GP saw the auto-tuned side on Femme Fatale, something that shouldn't happen

Originally posted by Anthony K. I see.

Originally posted by evan93 I'd rather not

I'm just thinking what was good about the FF era execution, and literally nothing was right about it. From her going fishing instead of doing any promo for HIAM, those endless teasers and a video coming out after a month from single release, the whole messy "promo", messy tour - Enrique announced, Enrique backs out, no big sponsor for the tour, body doubles, her looking a mess and anxiety issues.

Originally posted by Duca You were a mess that day!

And the cringeworthy 'I Am The Femme Fatale' documentary
