September 8th, 2008 by

Britney Spears continued her successful comeback this year by winning three prizes at the MTV Video Music Awards

Britney Spears, who was criticised for lip-synching at the 2007 awards, also triumphed in the best pop video and best female video categories.

The singer, who took part in an opening comedy sketch with Superbad actor Jonah Hill, politely thanked God, her children and her record label for each of her award wins.

“Wow, thank you, I’m in shock right now. I was not expecting this,” she said after accepting the the shiny Moonman statue for video of the year at the end of the night

“This is such an honour to have this award right now.”

Wearing a glittering silver dress and her hair in soft blonde waves, she posed for photos with her three trophies for her song “Piece of Me”, accompanied by manager Larry Rudolph.
