After much anticipation, Britney Spears returned to the VMAs stage after a decade away with a sultry performance of "Make Me".
	In her first performance on the telecast since 2007, the Las Vegas headliner performed the single along with rapper G-Eazy, reported Time magazine.
	After being introduced by Kim Kardashian West, the song began with Spears in silhouette behind a screen as shadow fingers awkwardly touched her body.
	When the screen rose, she wore a lime green-highlighter yellow, glittered leotard -- with matching boots.
	Flanked by two dancers, she two-stepped her way through an obviously lip-synched rendition of the song.
	The highlight of her performance was the impressive ground moves done around and through G-Eazy's legs as he rapped his verse.

DJ Calvin Harris opted to leave out ex-girlfriend and song co-writer Taylor Swift from his acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards.
	The "Shake It Off" singer confirmed last month she had penned the lyrics for her ex's "This Is What You Came For" track with Rihanna, after initially trying to keep her involvement a secret by having it credited to her pseudonym, Nils Sjoberg.
