Shes still a star and it will take a while for her FULL self to be back!!

At least they have comfirmed she was miming, it's awful when they continue to insist stars were singing when it's obvious they weren't. I know she was dancing, but I think the main reason people are upset that she mimed was because the program is about LIVE singing week after week, and if the contestants are singing live why can't we expect the same from the proffessionals?
Also she apparently didn't watch the program, despite having a TV in her dressing room. Really you'd think her manager could have fed her some lines to make her sound like she was taking an interest in the contestants (because its fair enough if she was too busy in rehersals to watch it as it went out).
Mine you singing live has it's pit falls, I think Girls Aloud showed themselves up trying to sing live after all the cntestants had done such a good job - although I think their new song is very difficult to sing which was probably the problem.
It was a pity Britney couldn't mentor the contestants like Mariah and Take That, as it singles her out, and a lot of people may think she thought it was beneth her.
I hate to say it but if she's not really ready for a full come back maybe she should have spent more time recovering, and not have been rushed back into performing. Her health and welbeing should come first.
Blah! Anyway, hopefully she'll be back on track again soon, she did look a lot better than she has for a while and hopefully she's in a much better place than she was a year ago.
I think Eoghan (or Eggnog as fairywings pointed out) should go next week, his voice sounds very weak when up against the others. And the teen pop - high school musical wanna-be performances are getting a bit lame.
