Britney Causes A 'Circus' Circus

It was a surprisingly sunny 6 p.m. I finished up work yesterday with plans to attend a movie screening only two blocks away. I popped in my earbuds, clicked over to the new Green Day album and began walking from my office to the screening room. But as soon as I turned onto 48th Street, I noticed a huge crowd blocking off most of Seventh Avenue.

"Oooh, car accident," I thought, because that's where my morbid mind immediately moseys to. But there was nary a busted taillight in sight. What I could see were hundreds, nay thousands, or screaming fans foisting cameras above their heads in hopes of taking a picture of someone ... somewhere.

Then I saw it. Or more accurately, her. Yes, Britney Spears was perched across the block from me, separated by but rows and rows of people, atop a blue bus. Then I remembered that she was holding a "If You Seek" Britney Twitter contest yesterday, leaving clues as to her location all over NYC. If you found her, you got front row tickets to her show last night.

Great idea ... in theory. As the cops held people behind barriers and yelled at pedestrians to "keep it moving" traffic came to a standstill during the busiest time of day -- in the heart of Manhattan.

But no one seemed to care -- especially the "Oops...I Did It Again" t-shirt clad tweenybopper who punched me in the gut as she made her way toward the front of the mob. "Watch it," she shouted at me, continuing my fascination with people who run into stationary objects, chastising him/her/it for being in the way.

Such is the power of Britney!

Britney Spears Brings Her Sexy Circus To Madison Square Garden

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

Britney Spears pulled out all the stops for her first night of three shows at Madison Square Garden on Monday. Donning several different sexy outfits and addressing the crowd a few times, Spears definitely showed her critics that she can still charm an arena full of fans.

After opening acts Kristinia DeBarge and Jordin Sparks finished their sets, the Circus began. First came acrobats on trampolines, then the opening video of Perez Hilton dressed as a queen presenting the show's ringmaster, Spears herself.

Spears descended from the ceiling dressed in a shiny metal bodysuit, starting the show off with her single "Circus." She then hopped in a cage with male dancers dressed in S&M gear for "Piece of Me."

Britney broke out a slew of fan favorites, like "Radar" (complete with pole dancing), "Boys," (during which she requested the male dancers do push-ups for her) and "If U Seek Amy," which segued into Spears reemerging onstage in her genie attire for "In the Zone."

But the crowd got most excited when Spears addressed them directly, asking how everyone was doing before saying, "I'm going to do a ballad. It's called 'Everytime.' " She then wiped something away from her cheek — it seemed she got a bit emotional while floating above the stage in the arm of a giant umbrella.

Spears spoke to the fans again, asking, "What's up New York?" before launching into a remixed version of "I'm a Slave 4 U" sporting a sparkly black bodysuit.

"Toxic" also wowed the crowd as Britney performed the hit in skintight red pants, a black sports bra and knee-high boots. Her last song before the encore was a remixed version of her classic, " ... Baby One More Time."

As she took the stage for final time, a video featuring the most memorable images from her music videos played as the music for "Womanizer" kicked in. Dressed as a policewoman, she closed the show with a blaze of fireworks, addressing the crowd one more time before taking her bow, saying, "Have a wonderful night."

Britney Spears Is 'Really Sweet,' Says Tour Opener Kristinia DeBarge

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

Kristinia DeBarge will be hitting the stage as an opening act on Monday when Britney Spears brings her Circus tour to Madison Square Garden for three nights. And DeBarge says that Miss Spears has been nothing but kind since the newcomer joined the show for the tour's second leg.

"Well, I've only talked to her once ... but she's really sweet and she told me that her kids love my songs," DeBarge, who is also up for a Video Music Award, told MTV News. "I thought that was sweet ... it was really brief and short, but she's really nice. So we'll see how it goes."

And although the group hasn't been on the road for very long, DeBarge has already assessed how the tour is going. "I'm definitely starting to feel a little bit tired. I haven't even started to go that much deep into the tour yet," she said, adding that the first two shows went over well for her and for the fans.

"They went really well. The first show was a lot of fun," she said. "I remember hearing the audience and getting chills — I've been dreaming about this since I can remember talking."

And although she is now living the dream of having a spot opening up for Britney, there was a time not too long ago when that opportunity didn't even seem like a possibility. "Well, the first time that I was told I would be opening up for her I didn't believe it. I was in the studio recording one of my songs called 'Powerless,' " she said. "I thought they were just joking with me. I was really excited."

Britney Spears and Her Boys Go Under the Sea

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

Britney Spears is in the Big Apple for work, but she made time to take her sons to a Broadway show Sunday afternoon.

Brit, Sean Preston and Jayden James arrived for a matinee performance of The Little Mermaid, starring Drew Seeley, just before the curtain went up.

"The audience was so excited about her being here," a source tells E! News. "They snapped photos as she walked down the aisle, but no one bothered her once she was seated."
So how'd her sons like the show?

A source says the boys were very well-behaved and drank water and Coke during intermission.

"Her kids loved the undersea adventure so much, they even asked Britney if they can see it again," says a source.

The singer politely declined show merchandise offered to her, along with a chance to meet the cast afterward, and made a quick exit as soon as the show ended.

Spears joins Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Katie Holmes and David and Victoria Beckham on the list of celebrity parents who have taken their little ones to see the show since it premiered on Broadway.

On Monday night, Spears will be back onstage performing her Circus tour at Madison Square Garden.

The Circus Hits Hamilton

Britney Peeper Guilty of Peekaboo-boo

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

Miranda Tozier-Robbins should've just bought a ticket for the Circus.

The woman who was arrested in April outside Britney Spears' Calabasas home after security guards caught her peering into a ground-floor window was cleared of trespassing Thursday but found guilty of misdemeanor peeking.

For real! We didn't know that existed, either!

Tozier-Robbins told E! News at the time that there was "no obsession with Britney"; rather, she had been practicing documentary filmmaking, paparazzi-style (which, to her apparently, meant in an invasive and illegal manner).

For peeking, the 26-year-old has been sentenced to three years' probation, fined $100 plus penalties and ordered to continuing staying at least 100 yards away from Spears, her kids and her residence, as per the terms of a previous restraining order. Tozier-Robbins must also perform 240 hours of community service.

We're thinking window washing might be in order.

P. Diddy Wouldn’t Mind Being Britney’s VP

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

Britney Spears counted down the top 10 reasons things would be different if she was president instead of Pres. Barack Obama on Late Show with David Letterman, naming Sean Combs aka P. Diddy as her Vice President — so what does the entertainment mogul himself think about his nod from Brit?

It seems he took it kind of seriously, musing on the hypothetical. “If she asked me, I’d accept,” he tells The Daily Beast, adding the caveat, “but no one works harder than Barack.”

You know, just in case Britney somehow is considered for the job, Diddy wants to be clear.
