At one point, cameras panned over to the 29-year-old hip-hop star, who was standing in a section of the audience.
She was dressed in a chartreuse wrap bra with a huge sparkly broach in the center, metallic booty shorts with bright blue sheer fabric panels dangling from the sides, bedazzled suede tan boots, tons of body jewelry and an albino python worn like a shawl.
As Spears’ 2001 hit played in the background, a panic-stricken Megan said into the mic she was holding, “OK! OK! Stop the music! Stop the music! I’m just playing! Come get this thing! I don’t know this thing; this thing don’t know me.”
Despite Spears’ sexy, calm demeanor during the legendary performance at the September 2001 show, she admitted last year that the experience was both memorable and terrifying.
“One of my favorite performances was with an albino python,” the singer, 42, posted via X (formerly Twitter) in September 2023, adding, “I still remember how scared I felt when I was handed this snake and took the stage!!!”
The 2024 VMAs were full of homages, including Tate McRae’s re-creation of Spears’ sheer lace minidress, which the latter wore on the red carpet the same year as her snake performance. Perhaps Megan and Tate will link up later tonight.
