Britney's New Command Performance

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

Britney Spears will be appearing in a Los Angeles arena and, if a certain lawyer has it his way, an L.A. County courtroom.

Jon Eardley, Esq., the lawyer who claims Britney hired him to torpedo her conservatorship, has just filed legal papers demanding that Brit appear at a trial in which Eardley has been accused of harassing Britney and her family.

In his legal papers, Eardley notes that Britney will be performing at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on April 16 and 17. He says if she's well enough to perform, she's well enough to testify on two points -- did she authorize Eardley to take legal action on her behalf and did Eardley really cause her "substantial emotional distress."

The judge will have to decide if Britney is competent enough to testify and if it's fair to drag her into court. It would certainly be entertaining.

Britney Spears' Fans Cause Highway Stir In Cottonwood

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

Britney Spears’ tour bus passed through the north state on Interstate 5 this morning, and even just passing through, the pop star’s presence caused a stir with her fans.

So much so, that a motorist called 911 around 9:40 a.m. to report her entourage was being harassed by three people in a car, said Kurt Heuer, a spokesman for the California Highway Patrol.

The tour bus reportedly was heading southbound near Bowman Road in the Cottonwood area, when it was approached by three young women or girls who tried to get the 27-year-old singer’s attention.

“Apparently it was just some people who wanted to say hi to Britney, if it was even her,” Heuer said.

The tour bus didn’t stop, so it’s unknown if Spears was even on the bus, Heuer said.

Spears performed on Wednesday in Vancouver, Canada and has a performance scheduled at ARCO Arena in Sacramento on Saturday night, according to her Web site publicizing her current tour called “The Circus.”

Heuer said Spears’ fans weren’t cited, but officers warned them to leave her alone.

The Circus Burns The House Down In Tacoma











Thursday, April 9, 2009

Tacoma Dome Ready For Britney

The deputy director of the Tacoma Dome expects there will be no repeat Thursday of the smoke problem that interrupted the Britney Spears concert in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Rob Henson says smoking is not allowed inside the dome and air handlers and the ventilation system have been able to handle concerts that use pyrotechnics.

There was a 30-minute interruption in Spears' show Wednesday at GM Place in Vancouver because crew members above the stage became ill due to a ventilation issue.

The Tacoma Dome has sold out more than 21,000 seats for its stop on the "Circus" tour.

Britney Spears Walks Off Stage During Concert

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

The show didn't go on in Vancouver Wednesday night after Britney Spears pulled the plug on her sold-out Circus concert 15 minutes and three songs into her performance – departing the stage and leaving the audience in the GM Place in the dark for more than half an hour. Boos ensued.

Cigarette smoke from the crowd was blamed, with a female voice announcing to the crowd, "The building is awfully smoky. It is uncomfortable for everyone on stage, including Ms. Spears. Please extinguish all cigarettes – this is a non-smoking building, and the show will resume when the smoke on the stage is cleared," the Vancouver Sun reports.

Until the agitated crowd settled down, GM Place was filled with piped-in intermission music played at hockey games – which, one concertgoer told PEOPLE, left the fans "really pissed off. The break in the concert ruined it for everyone. The vibe was gone."

When she did return, Spears, 27, delivered a well-received Bollywood take on "Me Against the Music," followed by "Everytime" – during which she asked the crowd "What's up, Vancouver?" before she again left the stage, some 90 seconds before the end of the song.

The concert concluded with Spears singing "Womanizer" and advising the still-restless crowd, "Vancouver, don't smoke weed." Her sign-off was also peppered with a couple of X-rated expletives and a warning to "drive safe."

After the show, a statement was posted on the singer's Web site: "We want to apologize to all the fans who attended our Vancouver show tonight for the brief pause in Britney's set. Crew members above the stage became ill due to a ventilation issue."

Spears kicked off her Circus tour of the North America and England in New Orleans on March 3. Her father and attorneys are exploring the possibility of expanding the tour, says AP.

Britney Goes Down ... Under

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

Britney Spears' conservatorship hearings are usually tedious arguments about money -- but today's hearing could mean Britney Spears is taking her tour Down Under. G'day, y'all!

Lawyers today raised the idea of expanding Brit's tour to include dates in Australia and parts of Europe. Currently Britney's tour dates are in the U.S. and Canada, with a few dates in London in June.

Nothing was decided upon today. They are due back in court April 14.
