Ever since we caught a glimpse of the Grammy get-up that Britney Spears unwisely chose to wear this year (if you haven't seen it, you've officially been warned), we at the Hive have been really missing Brit's good ol' days. We're talkin' Britney circa 2001 -- you know, "I'm A Slave 4 U," her movie debut in Crossroads, and the wise-beyond-her-years "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman." In fact, speaking of that particular video, while watching it we can't help but think that she had way more fashion sense ten years ago than she did now, even by today's standards. I mean, swap those 70's-style flares for a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans and trade her crop top for one that's... well, not cropped, and she's practically wearing an outfit straight out of the latest Free People catalogue. And wait -- are those desert boots she's wearing under those humongous bell bottoms?! Dear far-more-stylish-Britney-of-the-past: if you're still in there somewhere, come back and save yourself before you do something else drastic like wear another see-through lace dress in public. Anyway, while we're waiting for that futile message to be delivered, watch the video for a fun Britney flashback, then take a look at the slideshow for current pieces that pay homage to vintage Britney!

Miley, Britney, & The "Twilight" Gang Sink Their Teeth Into The Teen Choice Awards

Forget "Jon & Kate Plus 8," "Dating in the Dark" or any of the other "quality" television programming you have scheduled on your TiVo for tonight -- the 2009 Teen Choice Awards on Fox is where it's at. If you're still a teen at heart (or are literally still a teen) and are dying to see the "Twilight" gang take home another dozen awards for their angst-ridden bloodsucking antics or witness Megan Fox nab a couple decorative surfboards basically just for looking hot, the event is a must-see. Despite the actual award-winnings and acceptance speeches, the Teen Choice Awards (which took place last night but air this evening at 8) are still worth a gander if you're looking for a break from your mindless channel-surfing, since the red carpet boasted an impressive parade of celebrities -- those in their teen years and beyond. Aside from the fact that so many stars were actually in attendance, what was even more impressive was just how skimpy some of the red carpet ensembles were (ahem Miley Cyrus). Check out the slideshow for some of the red carpet highlights before the event even airs!
