This! This is the Britney Spears we know and love!
Spears killed it on the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday, performing "Pretty Girls" with Iggy Azalea live at the Planet Hollywood AXIS Theater in Las Vegas -- aka the home of Spears' residency show, Piece of Me.
The pair kicked things off with an out of this world entrance before launching into a high-energy rendition of the song.
As expected, the pop star overshadowed her rapping duet partner.
[...] she proved during Sunday night’s Billboard Music Awards that she’s still got the performer’s spark left in her during a lively “Pretty Girls” duet with former Australian resident Iggy Azalea.
Talk about an on-point performance that did their ’80s influenced music video justice! Our jaws were on the ground and the chemistry between these two is so apparent. We hope that there are more collaborations to come from Brit and Iggy!
As we previously reported, the dynamic duo didn’t disappoint while performing their incredibly addictive single. While Britney flaunted her fierce dance skills, Iggy, who also looked like gorgeous in a galactic-inspired ensemble, broke it down with her rap verse.
Spears, who’s performed on television rarely since her 2007 “Gimme More” fiasco at the MTV Video Music Awards, seemed both with-it and truly delighted to be onstage. Azalea, who’s come under fire online in recent months for her acuity with rapping live, sold her verse, too. As redemption stories go, this one couldn’t have been more welcome.
Iggy Azalea and Britney Spears proved they're so much more than just "pretty girls" when they performed their new hit song for the first time at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas Sunday night.
From the moment they touched down on stage, the duo kept the crowd cheering with a fun, colorful performance.
