Britney Announces London Concert Dates
US singer Britney Spears is to play two concerts at the O2 arena in London next June - the only European shows on her forthcoming world tour. Tickets for the dates on 3 and 4 June will go on general sale on 5 December - although fans who register with her website can buy them 24 hours earlier. “It’s going to be very special,” said Rob Hallett of tour promoter AEG. The concert, he said, would take its theme from her latest album The Circus, which is released next week. “We’re creating a musical circus,” he said. “Expect to see jugglers, dancers, tattooed ladies and acrobats.” According to the promoter, the concerts will be Spears’ only dates in Europe “for the foreseeable future”. Spears last performed in the UK in 2004 when her Onyx Hotel tour visited Birmingham, Glasgow, Belfast, Manchester and Wembley Arena in London. ‘Radiant’ The 26-year-old will be in the capital this weekend to appear on ITV1 talent show The X Factor. Before that she will travel to Germany to attend the annual Bambi entertainment awards in Offenburg. The singer will be named best international pop star after achieving what organisers have called a “stunning comeback from an absolute low point”. “Britney Spears is back,” said host Hubert Burda. “Radiant and better than ever, the erstwhile idol has reclaimed her throne.” In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the performer admitted she felt “like an old person” now her much-documented troubles are behind her. “I go to bed at, like, 9.30 every night and I don’t go out or anything,” she is quoted as saying. “I just feel like an old fart.” Spears’ mother Lynne, meanwhile, has been telling the BBC how happy she is that her daughter has got her life back on track. “Britney wants to do it right,” she told Radio 5 Live’s Colin Paterson, attributing her recent turnaround to having “good people around her” and “lots and lots of prayer”.

Wade Robson Talks About Britney’s New Tour
BRITNEY SPEARS is planning to hit the stage in Australia during a “top-secret” worldwide comeback tour, according to one of her closest friends, Australian choreographer Wade Robson. Robson, 26, who is directing the tour — which is expected to make or break Spears in the music industry — says he and the pop singer want the shows to be “great and classy and elegant and exciting”. “We want to present her in a way that is her but a way that has never been seen. It’s another side,” said Robson, the Brisbane boy who is one of the hottest choreographers in the US. Not only is Robson the creative director but his wife, Amanda, is co-artistic director on the tour, which is expected to generate a wide level of interest because of Spears’s breakdown last year. Robson confirmed that Spears was hoping to bring the show to Australia, most likely towards the end of 2009. Spears’ new album, Circus, will be released on December 2. Source: The Age |
