Anyone who thinks that mainstream pop is over and that Britney Spears’ time in the spotlight is through should think again. The bouncy blonde pop star will be playing to packed houses in Montreal and Toronto later this week and, due to popular demand, she’ll bring her Onyx Hotel Tour back to Toronto on its second North American leg this June.

The Onyx Hotel show, once again, is an all-Britney extravaganza with a set that revolves around a mysterious onyx stone that makes Britney’s fantasies come to life. As the press material reads, “wondrous dreams are realized and the darkest of secrets are revealed.” And Miss Britney says that she doesn’t go out of her way to be provocative…

Brit’s new Toronto show will take place on June 27 at the Molson Amphitheatre. Tickets for the show go on sale this Friday (April 2) at noon through all Ticketmaster outlets. They’ll cost you $69.50 or $98.50 for reserved seating or $35.50 for lawn seats. While no opening act has been specifically announced for the Toronto show, according to Spears’ website, rapper Eamon is scheduled to do the bulk of the summer tour.

In the meantime, Spears will play Toronto’s Air Canada Centre on April 3 and Montreal’s Bell Centre on April 4. Check local listings for ticket information.

Let’s get one thing straight: A Britney Spears concert is not about the music.

It’s about the spectacle — the campy fun of counting Spears’ costume changes and watching her dance breathlessly for three songs straight, only to come back for more minutes later.

The music? Not the point.

Music purists (and other purists, more on this later) might have a problem with Spears, a passable vocalist who appeared to be lip-syncing for most of her 90-minute show Monday night at the TD Waterhouse Centre.

Considering how hard she was working as a dancer — she glistened with sweat throughout the performance — it was probably difficult for her to sing at all.

Guided by a creepy master of ceremonies who promised an evening of “fun-filled fantasies” and “titillation,” the show took Spears through a variety of colorful, visually stimulating settings in the “Onyx Hotel.”

She burst on stage in Costume No. 1, a black catlike bodysuit, for the current hit “Toxic.” The polished choreography resembled Janet Jackson, circa Rhythm Nation 1814. (Spears, however, didn’t pull a Janet, circa Super Bowl 2004. Everything stayed in place.)

In Costume No. 2, a frilly pink leotard, Spears addressed her infectious bubble-gum hits “Baby One More Time,” “Oops! . . . I Did it Again” and “(You Drive Me) Crazy” in a jarring and dissonant cabaret style.

Thankfully, though, Spears kept the slow ballads to a minimum, sparing us the gag-inducing tunes that defined her teen years.

Her peppy numbers were much more successful, allowing the audience to focus on her dancing.

She didn’t miss a beat throughout the synchronized performance. The choreography was flawless — maybe a little too flawless. Planned down to the breath, the show didn’t give Spears room for improvisation of any sort.

“There are a lot of cute boys in the audience,” she told the crowd of mostly young women in halter tops. And then she alluded to her 55-hour marriage: “Maybe if you’re really lucky, I might marry you.”

Cute, but she’s used that line in every city so far.

Come on, Brit. Give us some personality. Couldn’t you show just a bit of special love for Orlando, your old stomping grounds, the place where you got your big start? Remember your Mouseketeer days?

Then again, there were no Mouse ears in sight.

For weeks the media has buzzed about the show’s sexual nature. But only two songs were purely sexual.

For “Touch of My Hand” Spears wore a flesh-colored sparkly bodysuit and thrashed in a bathtub as silhouettes of entangled lovers flickered onstage.

For “Breathe on Me,” she wore a hot pink bra and panty set and rolled around in bed. Near the end of the song, she took a break from her lip-sync to lip-lock with a dancer.

Racy, sure, but relax, people. The audience was filled mostly with college-age women who can handle this stuff.

Throughout the show, Spears’ team of dancers bolstered the performance, showing commendable artistry in the slower song “Shadow.” As Spears hovered over the stage on a swing, two Cirque du Soleil-style acrobats spun around dangling ribbons. Her band also added a nice touch with a brief detour into an enjoyable, Latin-inspired interlude.

But when you go to Britney Spears show, you have to remember that it’s about the sight, not the sound.

The girl (is she still not yet a woman?) might not have the best voice, but she has her merits as a terrific dancer. And she puts on a fun spectacle.

Inspiring? No. Entertaining? For sure.

BRITNEY SPEARS thrilled Hollywood’s lesbian community at the GLAAD Awards on Saturday night (27MAR04), when she confessed she’d love to smooch ELLEN DeGENERES.

The pop star kicked off the GAY + LESBIAN ALLIANCE AGAINST DEFAMATION event by praising the openly lesbian chat show host on a huge screen above the stage at THE KODAK THEATRE in Los Angeles.

Spears, referring to DeGeneres’ role in hit animated movie FINDING NEMO, stated, “There is no other woman I’d like to kiss more. She’s the voice of the cutest fish… and a real hero for so many people.”

DeGeneres hosted the GLAAD Awards, which honours gays and lesbians in the arts. The event honoured SHARON OSBOURNE, OPRAH WINFREY and ANTONIO BANDERAS for their support of homosexuals.

Britney Spears is planning to perform in five Chinese cities in late September as part of her Asian tour.

Her China tour organiser says the 22-year-old pop singer has agreed to stage five shows – in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Changsha, and possibly Shenyang in northeast China.

The tour is scheduled to begin in Guangzhou on September 24th and conclude on October 1st.

Although the Chinese organiser refuses to reveal the financial details of the tour, he says Spears has made substantial compromises to make her visit to China.

Britney Spears will be one of the most high-profile western pop singer ever to visit China, following Mariah Carey’s tour to Shanghai last year.

She is now in the middle of her American tour, which runs through the summer.

A HARD-UP college student today reveals how pop queen Britney Spears chatted him up on a blind date—and then took him to bed.

Hunky Tom Witchey lived out the dreams of millions of men as the blonde beauty drank martinis with him before leading him down to a beach to go skinny dipping.

After she ordered him to strip on the sand, Tom swept a naked Britney off her feet and carried her into the waves.

As they returned from the moonlight swim with two of her pals these pictures were taken by a photographer.

Just minutes later she took Tom back to her hotel for a breathtaking night of passion.

“It sure beat the hell out of doing homework,” says Tom, 21, who is studying communications. “I was blown away every time I thought, ‘This is Britney Spears I’m lying here with’.

“She was in great shape and is a very good lover, very creative and very experienced. She took the upper hand and pretty much told me what she wanted me to do to her.

“I went on for about as long as I could. It was very intense.”

Strapping six-footer Tom today relives his astonishing romp with Britney… with the multi-millionaire singer’s blessing.

The two have stayed pals since their one-night stand—and he called her to get the OK for his exclusive interview with the News of the World.

Tom’s adventure began when he bumped into two of Britney’s pals—Charissa Seaman and her boyfriend, Josh Clephas—in a bar in Los Angeles last summer.

Little did he know that Charissa—a dancer for 22-year-old Britney—was on the lookout for a hunk to go on a blind date with her famous friend.

Days later Tom—who lives in a modest apartment—got a call from Josh.

Relaxed

“He told me he was going up to Santa Barbara to meet Charissa and that Britney Spears would be there. I thought wow—that’ll be great.

“But I never in a million years expected anything to happen between us.”

When they arrived at the bar of the Four Seasons Biltmore Hotel, Tom was nervous about meeting the world-famous star.

“But she just leapt out of her chair and said, ‘Hi, I’m Britney’,” he says. “She was trying to be incognito, so she was wearing a baseball cap pulled down low over her eyes, an off-the-shoulder top and jeans.

“Funnily enough, I’d never really fancied Britney Spears before—but in a situation like this, it was a lot different.

“She wasn’t anything like I expected. She was very relaxed and carefree. She wasn’t aloof or acting like a superstar.”

After spending the evening knocking back apple martinis, a tipsy Britney suggested they all go down to a nearby beach.

“We sat on the sand chatting, and then we started playing truth or dare,” says Tom. “Britney dared me to run into the ocean in my boxers. The trouble was, I wasn’t wearing any underwear.

“So she said, ‘I guess you’ve got no choice. You’ll just have to run into the water with nothing on.’ So I did.

“Then I was dared to kiss Britney. She was a fantastic kisser and it lasted quite a few seconds—and it was just the icebreaker we needed.

“After that we all went skinny dipping. I picked Britney up and ran into the water with her. I figured I’d make the most of the moment. ”

But just as they were all putting their clothes back on at the end of the dip, a photographer started taking pictures.

Quick-thinking Josh scooped the giggling pop star into his arms to try to divert attention away from her real love interest for the evening—Tom.

So the snaps appeared in magazines worldwide, wrongly linking Britney with her best pal’s boyfriend—and making little mention of the shy bronzed lad tagging along behind.

But back at the Four Seasons hotel—where Britney was staying—there was no keeping the pair apart.

Tom really got the message when Britney went to her bedroom in her luxury suite, leaving him with Charissa on the sofa. “Charissa told me Britney wanted a one-night stand with me. I was like, ‘Well that’s a great idea’ but I didn’t believe it,” says Tom.

“Then Charissa went to bed and Britney popped her head round the door and asked if everyone was gone.

Kissing

“I followed her back into her bedroom. She was in a see-through tank top and pyjama bottoms. We started kissing and our clothes just came off at the same time.

“I was taken aback by how spontaneous she was. She was definitely in charge but it worked out for both of us. I like to pleasure a girl and she definitely wanted that.

“But the sex wasn’t anything kinky—no craziness. Just very slow and gentle in the beginning but, once it heated up, it got more intense.” After their sex session, Britney told Ohio-born Tom he was her second one-night stand.

“She said she’d slept with another guy and when he left she pretended to be asleep because she felt so embarrassed,” says Tom.

“Then she told me about her worst sexual experience, with her dance arranger Wade Robson, which broke up her thing with Justin Timberlake.

“She said sex with Wade was good and bad because he was really freaky and kinky. Justin found out about the relationship because Wade told him.”

Tom and Britney eventually fell asleep in each other’s arms.

“We spent the whole of the next day hanging out together at the hotel spa,” he recalls.

“That night we didn’t have sex because Josh and Charissa were around. We just cuddled up and had a deep conversation about life.

“Britney said she didn’t want the Hollywood thing. She wanted a family with a house in the middle of nowhere, where she wouldn’t be bothered. Like that’s going to happen!”

Britney flew off to Las Vegas the following day and Tom returned from his summer holidays to his studies in New York. He says they’ve kept in touch on the phone.

Cool

“She told me last month that she wanted to hang out with me again in July once her tour has finished. We’ll have to see what happens then,” says Tom.

“But I realise she’s not around to make dates. She has much bigger priorities than me. Still, I’m cool with that. I’ll just go with the flow.

“You never know—maybe things will work out between us.”

This doesn’t sound real to me, even though there are photos it doesn’t prove anything.

Britney Spears begged designers to airbrush photos for her world tour — because she looked too fat in them.
The Onyx Hotel Tour snaps reportedly featured the singer looking bloated and chunky, until they were digitally slimmed down to resemble her trademark svelte body.

And Britney’s personal trainer Bobby Strom has exposed several sources behind her fluctuating weight, including her mom Lynne’s home cooking.

He says, “Her mind has not been in the right place for working out. She’s had lots of stuff to get sorted in her head and her personal life lately. But I think that she’s over it and back on course, mentally and physically. I’m sure I’ll be seeing her again soon.

“She’s fond of her mom’s food but it tends to be carb heavy and calorific. I’ve told her to cut out barbecue sauces and gravies, and eat more protein — especially on tour. She also needs complex carbs such as brown rice, veggies and wholegrain breads.”

A source tells Britain’s Star magazine Britney, 22, was devastated by her appearance in the photos, and complained to her promoters, “I look like a blimp, so do something about it. I need to look perfect — better than perfect.”

Budweiser signed pop singer Britney Spears to a multi-year endorsement deal for its flagship brand. The first TV spot featuring the pop star will air during the third quarter of 2004. Spears, 22, will also appear on Budweiser displays and take part in consumer promotions such as ticket giveaways. Additionally, the beer giant will cosponsor her world tour now in progress.Terms of the agreement were not disclosed. “Brand Budweiser wants to connect with young adults. The best way to do that is through music,” said Dave Burwick, Budweiser North America’s vp-marketing for carbonated alcoholic beverages. “She’s the one icon that really has broad appeal and, more importantly, is strong with hip young adults.” Some parents have expressed outrage about the endorsement. “What message is she sending to kids everywhere?” said Julie Barnes whose 12 year old daughter is a fan of the artist.
