2008 MTV VMAs: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Taylor Swift Photos

2008 MTV VMAs: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Taylor Swift Photos

Aside from it being all-too-obvious and predictable at the VMAs (and let's face it, maybe a ploy by MTV for Project: Save Britney), Britney did look much more like her old self.  Glowy, healthy, and maybe even happy--a little bit? I admit, MTV got me, I tuned in just to see what Britney was going to...

Look - I'm "Wild 'Bout You" for Fall

Look - I'm "Wild 'Bout You" for Fall

Yesterday, I wanted to see how my new cut would look natural aka no styling required. I was pretty pleased with the results -- it's very much the same, but it doesn't have the same level of volume, shine, or texture.
