New Rehearsel Pics

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 Seals Her Comeback With X-Factor Performance

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

After a No.4 hit with her latest track Womanizer and two MTV Europe Music Awards last week, Britney Spears is continuing her comeback with a live performance on The X Factor.

The pop star, 26, will cement her return to the music industry with a performance of her single on the hit ITV talent show.

Britney will also meet the six remaining contests on the November 29th broadcast.

Britney's appearance comes after Mariah Carey and Will Young appeared on recent Saturday's, mentoring the contestants.

The superstar's X Factor performance will be her first on UK television for five years.

After a difficult few years, during which she went through a divorce and was hospitalised twice for psychiatric evaluation, Britney is now looking better than she has in years.

Since dealing with her problems with the help of her father Jamie and mother Lynne, Britney has been focusing her energies of getting her career back on track.

She picked up three awards at the MTV Video Music Awards in September for her single Piece Of Me, and continued her success at the MTV Europe Music Awards last week with two trophies - even though she was unable to attend the Liverpool ceremony.

Earlier this month, Britney wowed fans when she joined Madonna on stage during the Material Girl's Los Angeles gig.

Her sixth studio album Circus is set for release on her 27th birthday on December 2nd.

She took a step back from her career when she first met her then-husband Kevin Federline in 2004.

The dancer accompanied her to London on the European leg of her Onyx Hotel Room Tour.

But after injuring her knee filming the video for her song Outrageous, Britney cancelled the rest of her tour and returned to the U.S., where she started planning her marriage to Kevin.

After marrying the aspiring rapper in September 2004, Britney took several years out of her career to raise her two children Sean Preston, three; and Jayden James, two.

Britney Spears Shows Her Backside

On Halloween day we got our first look at the new cover artwork for Britney Spears’s new album Circus and today we get to see what the album’s backside will look like. UK store Tesco has uploaded the backside of the album artwork on their online site, which I now am passing along to all y’all. Here is the back of the Circus album artwork for both the standard and deluxe versions of the album:

You can see that both albums will have the same tracklisting except that the deluxe version will have the UK bonus tracks Rock Me In and Phonography … as well as a bonus DVD of “the making of the Circus album including an exclusive interview with Britney”. Additionally, the backcover artwork features A SCARY ASS MINI-CLOWN offering our dear Britney a birthday cake (the album will be released on her birthday, December 2) as she reclines on a bed, presumably in a circus wagon. I mean … I’m not a big fan of clowns in general but this little guy is kinda extra freaky. BUT, of the Circus promo pics that we’ve seen thus far … this one is the most circus-y. I think I like this photo (scary clown, notwithstanding) … what do y’all think?

Britney Spears’ New Year’s Eve Strip Performance

The following italicized article is from www.lasvegassun.com:

Mastermind manager Larry Rudolph always told me that the royal return he was engineering for pop superstar Britney Spears would be “the biggest and best comeback in showbiz history.” He’s within 30 days of seeing that promise come true: He is in the midst of carefully executing his top secret plan, and Vegas has a mighty lot to do with it!

Here’s what I’ve learned so far since the rumor mill went into heavy overdrive:

- Negotiations are going down to the wire for Britney to appear on the Strip on New Year’s Eve with a special two-song performance on network television -- and she’ll co-host part of the year’s retrospective in music segment.

- Her new album, "Circus," will be released on her birthday, Dec. 2.

- Britney herself will soon announce a new world Circus tour, with tickets going on sale in early December.

- The pop princess has confided that she’s hiring three new male backup dancers to add to her current crew specifically for the tour.

Wednesday morning, Britney herself posted photos and details of the upcoming projects on her Web site, britneyspears.com. She even says the talent she found among the 70 dancers trying out for her and manager Larry Rudolph was “amazing.”

By the way, that’s guru Larry in the white T-shirt and baseball cap sitting right alongside her! He’s a Vegas regular and always stays at George Maloof’s Palms, where he is a partner in the Sunset Tan salon in the new Palms Place condo tower.

One Final Request: Britney to Appear on TRL Finale?

The following italicized article is from www.tvguide.com:

Is Britney ready to hit TRL one more time?

Stars of TRL past and present will be on hand to bid adieu to the iconic scream-fest countdown show on Sunday, and one of them could be Britney Spears, host Damien Fahey revealed to TVGuide.com.

"We actually do have something with Britney, but I can't exactly say what it is," he said.

An MTV rep tells TVGuide.com that Spears is "not going to be there" live at the New York studio in Times Square for the closing ceremony. But how about a pre-taped segment?

"That's not confirmed, but it has been discussed," Melissa Barreto said.

The show served as the launching pad for Spears' career with her provocative Catholic school girl-clad video "Baby One More Time" and triggered the late '90s pop craze. A decade later, Spears, who holds the record for the most retired videos with 13, still dominates the countdown with her latest tune, "Womanizer," off her upcoming album, Circus.

Hey, girl's got a disc to promote, so she should drop by, right

Britney Spears Prepares For A Photoshoot

BritneySpears.com has been updated, right on schedule, with a new set of behind-the-scene photos of Britney Spears getting all glammed up for an as-yet-unseen photoshoot … giving us a sneak peek at what’s to come when the shoot eventually gets published:

According to her official site, the photos show Britney with a “celebrity photographer in Hollywood” but the photographer is not named. Because the photos do not have a “circus theme” about them, my guess is that the photoshoot is for a magazine.

The pics are very simple but very pretty. They are reminiscent of the scene in the Lucky music video where Britney is getting all made-up for her big close-up. These photos have that 1950’s Hollywood starlet glamor about them. Yeah … it just brings a tear to my eye to see our dear Britney lookin’ so well again.

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.”
