Ben Winston, the Executive Producer of James Corden's The Late Late Show told 5 live's Afternoon Edition that "Britney Spears was "a bit shy and got a bit of a shock": "You know what, it's a ten minute bit and people have only seen 30 seconds of it. I think it was probably unfortunate that we maybe chose one bit where she was [lip-syncing]... It was the first song they sang actually so she was a bit shy at that point. Because I think she found it quite strange that we... I don't think she actually watched it before, I'm not convinced she'd seen it before. I think she just heard it's quite a big thing... So maybe she just got a little shock. But no, she is great and she does join in!
I figured this would be it. Put out that awkward video to get people talking and then the thing comes out and she does sing and everyone looks foolish and she comes out a champ lmao. we'll see
Each and every time this topic is raised I feel disloyal to my general beliefs in music and artistry, like I'm giving her special treatment. I've accepted the woman doesn't sing live, can we please move on. The fact this is a recurring topic is annoying!
Best believe if it was anyone else but Britney, I would have disowned and dragged them for 6 years constantly. It's not cool.
