Britney Spears Performs At Germany’s Bambi Awards

The following Italicized article is a review from www.accesshollywood.com:

Britney Spears made her return to European TV screens on Thursday night, appearing at Germany’s Bambi Awards.

Dressed in a top hat, fishnets and a figure-hugging black outfit, Britney performed “Womanizer” at the awards show where she was honored as Best International Pop Star, by the German media.

Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld presented the pop princess with the statue, which resembles a shining gold deer, but it was the pop star’s performance that attracted the most attention.

The performance, clips of which have already surfaced on YouTube, featured a host of “Circus”-themed dancers, who paraded around as Britney appeared in silhouette at the start of the number. Britney then walked through a ring of fire, hitting the stage looking as shapely as ever as she danced and strutted her way through the song, before ending it atop a metal globe.

On Saturday, Britney will appear on British TV screens, performing on Simon Cowell’s “X-Factor,” an “Idol”-like talent competition.

Britney releases her sixth studio album, “Circus,” stateside on December 2.

Britney Spears Prepares For An Important Live Performance In Germany

Yesterday we saw photos of our dear Britney Spears causing a commotion at LAX airport here in LA as she made her way to Germany where she is scheduled to appear and PERFORM at the Bambi Awards in Düsseldorf, Germany tomorrow night. Here are a couple pics of Brit Brit leaving rehearsals in Germany yesterday ahead of her first live performance in about a year’s time:

I’m not entirely sure what Britney is scheduled to perform at the Bambi Awards but I suspect that since she is performing Womanizer on both Star Academy in France and on X-Factor in the UK later on this week (and presumably on Good Morning America next Tuesday) she will also be performing the same song/routine in Germany. Tomorrow night’s performance will be Britney’s first since her disastrous debacle at the 2007 MTV VMAs last year. While I have no doubt that she is in a much better position this year to put on a killer performance, I’m still a bit nervous to see this performance. I’m sure she’s got it in her to pull it off … do you?

Star Academy Performance Details

Some new details on Britney's Star Academy performance in France have come to light!

Nathalie Andre, a rep for Star Academy, says Britney and her team have been negotiating this performance since May - though confirmation was only announced just 2 weeks ago. And the staff is already gearing up for Britney's arrival! The crew is constantly rehearsing Britney's entrance, as well as beefing up security for that night's show.

Andre did reveal she fears a last minute cancellation (apparently Madonna was recently scheduled to perform on the show, then backed out last minute), but mentioned Britney, thus far, is "no diva."

On the show, Britney will reportedly have a small chat with contestants and answer a few questions from the show's host before her performance. The show will begin with segment about Britney's 10-year career, followed by her performance singing "Womanizer" which features her dancers and flashy pyrotechnics.

Britney Puts Sons Before Madonna

The following italicized article is from www.thesun.co.uk:

BRITNEY SPEARS has cancelled a planned concert performance with MADONNA in Miami so that she can spend the run-up to the Thanksgiving holiday with her kids.

Brit was supposed to make a guest appearance on the final show of the Material Girl’s American tour on November 26.

However, despite rave reviews for their appearance together in Los Angeles, the singer has decided to put her family before her career.

Britney has been granted custody of sons JAYDEN JAMES, two, and SEAN PRESTON, three, for the period leading up to the US holiday – which falls on November 27.

Her current custody arrangement with ex-husband KEVIN FEDERLINE means she has two visitations and one overnight visit with her sons per week.

A pal said: “Britney had always agreed to perform in Miami but her circumstances have changed over the past couple of months.

“She and Kevin are getting along fine now, Britney will have Jayden and Sean just before the holiday and Kevin will spend Thanksgiving day with them.”

Britney will then head to France to appear on Star Academy – their version of The X Factor.
Yesterday her mum LYNNE posted a message on her official website saying: “Looks like Britney will be spending her Thanksgiving holiday in Europe.”

Britney Spears To Spend Thanksgiving In Europe

Yesterday we saw photos of Britney Spears, her father Jamie Spears and sons Sean Preston and Jayden James upon arrival in Louisiana where they met up mama Lynne Spears and big bro Bryan Spears for a little family holiday/reunion. I speculated that Brit Brit might be spending the rest of the month thru Thanksgiving at home in Kentwood, LA but it turns out that that is not the case. BritneySpears.com has been updated with new rehearsal photos (shot in SoCal) and news that Britney will be spending Thanksgiving in Europe because she will be performing on Star Academy in France on November 28. Here are the new rehearsal pics and this new intel:

Britney Spears will be celebrating Turkey Day overseas. The singer — who returned home to Kentwood, Louisiana, on Friday with sons Sean Preston and Jayden James — will perform on the French show Star Academy on Nov. 28. “Looks like Britney will be spending her Thanksgiving holiday in Europe!” reads the announcement on BritneySpears.com.

She just keeps chugging right along with this amazing comeback of hers. Clearly, she’s making sure to take things one step at a time but her schedule is filling up fast and she is showing no signs of stopping. I think this visit home to Kentwood will be nice and relaxing for her … which is prolly just what she needs before she heads off to Europe to wow her fans there. In addition to a performance on Star Academy in France, Britters is also scheduled to perform on X-Factor in the UK … then her album will be released on December 2. It’s pretty crazy how fast time is flying by … her new album will be upon us soon. I can’t wait.
