The Britney Circus is in Town

You would have to pay me to go to the Britney Spears concert tonight at GM Place. Circus is probably a rather apropos name for this event. I imagine it would be a bit like seeing the aftermath of a car accident, you don’t want to look but you can’t avert your eyes. If you don’t agree then watch this video for her song, Womanizer.

For those of you who prefer your music with a little less sluttiness, try the Franz Ferdinand version of Womanizer.

UPDATE: According to a friend of a friend who works for LiveNation the reason Britney took a 30 minute hiatus during her show here was not because of the bothersome second hand smoke but because she ripped her fishnet stockings and the 20 other pairs they had in the wardrobe bin were not acceptable because she needed some specific brand of fishnets.

It is certainly a plausible story given the divaesque nature of Ms Spears, but this was third-hand information so I would say its truthfullness sits at about 50%. Not that I really care either way, but even my grandmother was talking about it.
