A judge on Tuesday dismissed a charge of driving without a license against pop star Britney Spears, after jurors said they could not reach a verdict and a prosecutor said he would not pursue a retrial.

Forget "Entourage" and the NFL. If you're going to watch TV this Sunday night, watch Britney Spears.

Singer Britney Spears performed during the MTV Video Music Awards last year, left, and shown here in July.

Her appearance at this year's MTV's Video Music Awards is arguably the most-anticipated television event since, well, her appearance at last year's MTV Video Music Awards, in which she flailed her limbs, mumbled her "Gimme More" lyrics and confirmed that she was a fallen pop superstar.

Spears has a lot to prove. While her life has been on the upswing in recent months -- she put an end to her child custody drama, started work on a new album and is up for three awards at Sunday's ceremony -- reports that she started drinking at age 13, lost her virginity at 14, and segued into drugs at 15, according to leaks from her mom's upcoming memoir, have cast her in a less-than-favorable light once again.
