-Picture it: 1999, Britney Spears is 17 years old. She is set to take the stage of the VMAs for her very first time. Chris Rock is the host introducing her and N'Sync.

-What should be an exciting moment turns awkward for Britney after Chris Rock asks the audience which of N'Sync will knock her up and tells the crowd to get ready for some lip syncing.

-Shortly after the VMAs, Britney appears on The Rosie O'Donnell show and talks about the performance, how hard she worked on it, and how Chris's comments put a damper on her experience. Rose goes on to defend Britney, reiterating that she performed live, is 17, and did a great job performing.
