Britney & Karl Lagerfeld in a WTF moment at German awards show
Britney Spears performed a re-worked version of her new song Womanizer at the Bambi Awards in Germany this Thursday. Perez Hilton’s verdict is: “She wasn’t great, but she wasn’t embarrassing.” He added that the pop star seemed a little stiff and had too much downtime in between dance moves, but he liked the remixed song.
However, the best part of the night wasn’t Brit’s actual performance but when she accepted an award from crazy-boots fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. The Olsens of the celebrity world are just kooky enough to have a believable repartee with Uncle Karl, but Spears and Karl make for an awkward pair. Says the eccentric designer to the open-mouthed, uncomprehending Spears, “[You are] coming back not only as a phoenix, but as a bird of paradise.” Britney looks out uneasily at the audience for a moment, then turns back to Karl, nodding with let’s-get-this-shit-over-with determination. Then the camera flashes to the audience to capture a perplexed-looking Meg Ryan. She looks like she doesn’t know whether to laugh, feel pity, or excuse herself to go do some shots at the bar. Share in Meg’s puzzlement below.
