If you were watching the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, then you definitely saw things get sexual on stage thanks to Britney Spears.
Specifically, between the pop legend and G-Eazy during their electric performance of Spears’ newest single, “Make Me.”
If you didn’t know any better, you’d swear that Spears and Eazy were sleeping together, because the chemistry was definitely there.
Heck, the 34-year-old upped the suggestive ante when she placed her hands on the Oakland native’s junk at one point.
Things got super weird, though, when Eazy went in for a kiss, and Spears shook her head as she continued to “sing.”
Spears and Eazy walked the red carpet together before the show started in NYC, with Britney posting a photo to Instagram.
Her caption? “My partner in rhyme.”
I will say that I appreciated her sliding through Eazy’s legs to re-enact a bit of her best performance ever (2000 VMAs, below).
So if it takes a little teasing to get the old Britney Spears back (not the 2007 sedated Spears), then goodness knows I’m all for it.
Refuse those kisses, Brit.
Even though you had to feel for the rapper (we suppose) Britney’s fans loved the rejection, lighting up a storm on Twitter afterward.
“SO WE NOT TALKING ABOUT HOW G EAZY TRIED TO KISS BRITTNEY AND SHE SWERVED. #VMAs2016,” one CAPS LOCK loving fan wrote.
“In 2011 she rejected Gaga’s kiss. In 2016 she rejected G-Eazy’s kiss,” said another, referencing when Gaga’s male alter ego tried to get some.
Other choice comments were along these lines:
“G-Eazy was trying to savage up and kiss Britney but she wasn’t going #BritneyOnVMAs”
“Shawty tried to kiss homie and he curved her badly”
“He was just trying to have a kiss moment with her and she was like Goodnight #VMAs
Today, Spears went on Elvis Duran to recap the performance, and of course didn’t address the fact that Eazy tried to go in for the kill.
Instead, she offered a generic assessment:
“We wanted to do something different, something I’ve never done before. So that was probably the coolest thing we could come up with.”
Even though she made it clear there would be no boning or even heavy petting going on, Britney did throw him a bone … so to speak.
“Oh, he’s so sweet!” she raved to Duran.
“He’s got a lot of swag,” Spears added of Eazy, who may or may not be heard from again, “he’s got the whole cool thing going on.”
Just not cool enough … to have THIS:
