Britney Spears bombed on England’s X-Factor Saturday night. While critics were quick to point out she did better than last September’s disastrous performance at the MTV Video Music AwardsBritney was criticised for lip synching (on a show geared toward live performance!) and dancing that looked ripped off a 101 class at the senior center. Sigh. Brit Brit just can’t get it together. 

more juice after the jump…

One enraged viewer wrote on the show’s messageboard:

 
 

Britney Spears is feverishly dieting before she performs on England’s X-Factor this weekend. Friends say the once portly pop star is going to bed hungry, and dieting so much she’s “suffering from insomnia, anxiety, flushes and shakes.” She is determined not to be known as the dancing cow with the “extra bulk.”
