Crazy Fan Arrested at Britney Spears Concert

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

Cops tell TMZ a man was arrested last night after jumping on stage during Britney Spears' concert at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.

Connecticut State Police say they arrested 20-year-old Kyle King -- who they say had definitely been drinking -- after he charged on stage during Britney's encore performance of "Womanizer."

Security and Brit's backup dancers were able to stop King before he could come in contact with Spears -- and he was arrested for breach of peace.

The CSP says after King was taken into custody, he was being highly uncooperative -- so they also booked him for interfering with police.

He was released this morning after paying a $250 bond and is due in Norwich Superior Court on June 18.

Video: Crazy Fan Jumps On Stage

Britney's Concert From Hell!

To say that Brit Brit's concert at the Mohegan Sun in Connecticut was a hawt mess is an understatement!

Not only did Spears fall while dancing during Get Naked, but one overzealous and disrespectful fan also rushed the stage during the encore!

"This guy ran across the stage and towards Britney during Womanizer," one of many Perezcious readers in attendance tells us. "He attempted to dance with Britney!"

Spears did not find it amusing and luckily her dancers got him off the stage quickly, where he was promptly detained - and we're assuming arrested. However, "Britney looked extremely spooked."

Poor Brit Brit.

Have some class, y'all. Don't frighten the performers like that!

Britney Spears Tori Spelling Fan — Britney Requests Autographed Copy Of “Mommywood”

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

Britney Spears is the ultimate Tori Spelling fan.

Who knew?

Like Tori, Britney knows what it’s like to raise two young children under the glare of Hollywood’s watchful eyes. That’s why she’s taking a few tips from the Oxygen star’s recently-released memoir on parenting, titled Mommywood. The book’s won such rave reviews from Britney, the “Gimme More” vocalist requested an autographed copy for her collection — a move that’s left Tori “really flattered,” says one Star insider.

Star Magazine reports: “Britney’s actually a huge fan. She used to be obsessed with watching Beverly Hills, 90210 back in the day, and now she thinks that Tori has such a cute family.”

Britney Requests A Strippers' Pole For Her London Hotel Room During Upcoming Tour

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

The Britney Spears circus is well and truly underway in London. The Dorchester is already making plans for her arrival at the start of June.

The singer has asked for a stripper’s pole to be installed in her favourite suite in the top hotel so she can work out between shows during the appropriately named Circus tour.

Hardly the most orthodox request they’re likely to have received at the five-star hotel.
A source said: 'Britney loves pole dancing, it is her new favourite work out.

She gets the toning that she needs without having to hit the gym, and she wants to be able to do it in the privacy of her own hotel room.

'Keeping fit on the tour is very important as her show is full of rigorous dance routines, so Britney likes to do her pole dancing work out every morning when she gets up.'

The 27-year-old star, who is known for her love of 'good old-fashioned cuisine' (or junk food), has also asked for a cook from the Nando’s restaurant chain to be on hand for the duration of her visit to whip her up some spicy chicken when she feels like it.

The last time Britney was in town she gorged on Domino’s pizza instead of eating in any of London’s fancy restaurants.

And finally, Britney is planning a huge private shopping spree in Topshop while she is in town.
She is making arrangements for Sir Philip Green to open the store especially for her and her dancers so they can stock up on a new wardrobe with no other customer vying for the bargains.

Britney's New Message

Sam Lutfi Ordered to Stay Away from Britney for Three Years

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

It's official: Sam Lutfi is a threat to Britney Spears.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Aviva Bobb issued a three-year restraining order against the singer's former manager on Tuesday.

Jon Eardley, a lawyer who has repeatedly challenged the validity of Jamie Spears's legal control over his daughter, was also slapped with a restraining order for three years.

Both men must stay at least 100 yards away from Britney, her two sons, and her family members' homes, and must not harass Britney and her children, or contact them through phone, mail and email. It also prohibits them from "acting on Ms. Spears's behalf or purporting to act on her behalf." The orders, however, do not specifically protect Jamie and Britney's mother Lynne Spears, which Jamie had sought.

The singer's father, who initially filed the request on Jan. 30, alleged that both men have harassed his daughter, adding Lutfi arranged the smuggling of a cell phone to the pop star at a hotel.

Lutfi Will Appeal

Bryan Freedman, Lutfi's attorney tells PEOPLE: "We absolutely will appeal this ruling. Never before in history has a restraining order been issued against someone who answered another person's cries for help."

The order followed several hearings in which Spears's father, her hairstylist, bodyguard, among others, testified that the singer was in fear of Lutfi. In his defense, Lutfi's younger sister Christina testified that it was Britney who hatched the cell phone scheme because she allegedly wanted Lutfi's help to end her father's control.

Last week, Samuel Ingham, a court-appointed lawyer for the pop star, told the judge that "my client's situation has improved dramatically over the last fourteen months. [The orders against Lutfi] is in my client's best interest ... she has suffered emotional distress."

Meanwhile, Lutfi's lawsuit against the Spears family for defamation and battery is still pending.

Britney to Sam Lutfi: It Was Nice Knowing You...

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

Britney Spears' conservatorship was just granted a permanent restraining order on Brit's behalf against Sam Lutfi and a guy who once claimed to be Britney's attorney.

The restraining order lasts until April 28, 2012.

Britney and both her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, are protected under the order. Lutfi and Jon Eardley are not allowed to go within 100 yards of Brit's home, job or workplace.

Sam and Jon also have to stay away from K-Fed's place and any of Britney's family members' homes.

The conservators filed for the restraining order because they said Lutfi and Jon were trying to torpedo the conservatorship by contacting Britney behind their backs.

Sam Lutfi Is Screwed In 3..2..

The following italicized article is from www.ok-magazine.com:

Judge Aviva Bobb heard closing arguments to decide if the temporary restraining order against Britney Spear's former BFF/svengali Sam Lutfi and her wannabe lawyer Jon Eardley should be made permanent.

Bobb told the open court that she will render her verdict by the end of the day. The bottom line argument, according to Lutfi's lawyer Bryan Freedman is that Britney, herself "did not suffer substantial emotional damage" as a result of Lutfi's phone attempts to contact her.

Freedman told OK! exclusively: "I will most definitely appeal any permanent order. Britney did not testify. No doctor or medical professional testified that she suffered enough to warrant a restraining order"

Britney's lawyer Joel Boxer countered: "There's much truth to the old adage that silence speaks volumes," meaning that neither Lutfi nor Eardley bothered to show up in court to testify in their defense.

Last week in court Boxer tried to cement the idea that Lutfi and Eardley are "predators who patently threatened and extorted her through emails."

Despite signing an agreement last July to stay away from the Britster, Lutfi testified that he slipped her a cell phone via his sister, and that she then texted Britney 45 times.

Another court date in May is scheduled to decide who should pay whose lawyer fees for this whole thing.

Stay tuned for judge Bobb's final decision.

Britney's Party in Vegas

After her show on Saturday night in Las Vegas, Britney had a party with the Pussycat Dolls as well as her dancers, aerialists, circus performers and other tour friends. The party took place at a family friend's condo at the Palms Hotel. Brett, Britney's assistant, said the DJ was fantastic, and superstar DJ Paul Oakenfold stopped by to visit. There was cotton candy everywhere, as well as lots of miniature snacks and desserts. The condo had an amazing view of Las Vegas - party goers could see the entire city!

Britney Brings the Party to Vegas

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

After Britney Spears wrapped up her Sin City show Saturday night, it was time for the pop princess to party and let her hair down.

Brit threw an exclusive bash in Phil Maloof's 15,000 square foot Sky Villa at the Palms Place Hotel & Spa for 50 people. Besides her backup dancers, the Pussycat Dolls (who open for Brit) came to party, minus Nicole Scherzinger.

"Everyone kept asking 'Where's Nicole?' And the answer was that she hardly ever hangs out with the group any more," says a source at the soiree.

While Paul Oakenfeld deejayed, guests got to watch a juggling act and contortionist performances. On the menu for late-night revelers, who hung until 3 a.m.? Sliders, peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches, brownies, cotton candy and caramel popcorn.

Brit wasn't the only celeb spotted in Sin City this weekend...

Paris and Doug Reinhardt were sitting right by the stage watching Brit's show early Saturday. Later they joined Nicky Hilton to hit up Tao, where Jamie King was celebrating her 30th birthday.

Their group later headed to XS at Encore around 3 a.m., where Ryan Seacrest, Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson were also hanging out. Wonder how that panel would rate Brit's Circus?

Britney Plays Peacemaker

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

After a bit of a onstage dustup during the Pussycat Dolls' Friday night gig in Phoenix, no less than Britney Spears herself -- for whom the Dolls are opening on the current tour -- acted as a mediator.

''Remember, business comes first. ... You can hate each other off-stage, but make it work on stage,'' a very reliable Spears source quoted Britney as saying.

Things are increasingly tense between the Dolls. Lead singer Nicole Scherzinger has been looking like she's poised to go solo, and other members of the group are unhappy about recent singles released as ''The Pussycat Dolls featuring Nicole Scherzinger.''

''It's like a modern version of the old Diana Ross and the Supremes thing,'' said a music industry insider Sunday.

At Friday's concert, things got testy when the Dolls' Melody Thornton thanked the crowd in her Phoenix hometown for supporting her, ''even though I'm not featured!'' Spears thought that led to a ''downer effect'' on the rest of the Dolls set, and a negative lead-in to her own set, the Britney buddy said.

We'll get a chance on Tuesday to see this up close -- and whether Spears' lecture had any effect -- when the tour arrives for two gigs at the Allstate Arena.

Britney The Gardener

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

BRITNEY SPEARS has turned to gardening to keep herself on the straight and marrow.

The songbird, who has a history of mental health problems, has become devoted to a self-help programme called flower therapy — based on horticulture.

She has also been closely studying books about the spiritual aspects of gardening while on tour in the United States.

A source said: “Britney has tried every kind of therapy going. She’s studied yoga, seen numerous counsellors and even experimented with mysticism, but they’ve never been more than passing fads.

“This time seems different though. She’s committed to learning as much as she can about horticulture and how it impacts your well-being.

“Whenever she returns to her California home she’s straight out in the garden working. She’s very proud and knowledgeable about what she’s planted and what is growing around her house.”

Flower therapy uses flower essences to “balance physical and emotional disturbances”.

Toxic singer Britney, 27, had a series of breakdowns in 2007 and was twice sectioned the following year.

She now has random drug and alcohol tests under the terms of her custody deal to keep sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two.

And she’s so determined to stay on the road to recovery that she has become a devotee of the self-help manual Chicken Soup For The Gardener’s Soul — by American lifestyle guru Jack Canfield.

The source said: “That has given her a lot of solace.”

Britney To Extend Her Tour?

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

MGM officials have told me there are no official plans for any nightclub celebrations there after her show. Britney’s tour is produced by AEG Live/Concerts West, the entertainment conglomerate responsible for Cher and Bette Midler at Caesars Palace and Carlos Santana’s new residency at The Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel.

Its president, John Meglen, told me: “It is one of the biggest and best-selling tours of the decade. Response and reaction has been phenomenal worldwide, and this weekend date at MGM is the highest ticket-selling gross so far. European fans cannot wait for her to get there, and in many, many venues, the tickets have been sold out instantly, and we’ve had to juggle dates to add more shows to meet the demand.”
