Britney Spears fails to impress Australian fans
"IT was not the triumphant return Britney Spears had hoped for.
Disgruntled fans stormed out of last night’s Australian debut of The Circus concert in Perth, upset by the star’s miming and “appalling” performance on stage. "

| For teh kind of money she was charging, she should have just given the punters 90 minutes of g o a t s e. No way to lip sync that. |

I don't understand why they walked out?
She has never hidden the fact that she lipsynchs during her liveshows so why are they upset???
I pity the poor fools who shelled out $1700 for the love seats in the front rows!
I pity them for not having any brains whatsoever!!!
I guess we've all been spoilt by the ALL LIVE SINGING Pink concerts a few months ago. |

Bette, did you WATCH the videos of her performing?
The word LACKLUSTRE barely describes what was onstage- it was bad, boring....I couldn't help thinking that 10 years ago was when she shone, and now it's gone, for sure.
I couldn't even sit all the way through the whole 2 minutes of the second video- had a strong compulsion to get a piece of bread.lol
Whatever she Had, she's lost, through all the years of being at the bottom. |

aszure - I wonder if the shows she is doing in Australia are a tamed down version of the ones she has done elsewhere around the world?
This "Circus" tour is the No. 1 concert tour of 2009 - WORLDWIDE!
She has performed to millions around the world - selling out 20,000 seat arenas and the first negative review has come from her first concert in Perth!!!
Either she has been this woeful all around the world - and millions have kept their disappointment a secret - or she is doing something drastically different that has upset dozens of fans and critics! |

| So does this mean that she can technically be sued for fraud or dishonest conduct? |

| Given the price of a ticket compared to the legal cost ... no. But a criminal prosecution would be good to watch. |

CONCERT REVIEW:
Britney Yet to Hit Stride
Wednesday March 04, 2009 07:30 AM EST
Don't call it a comeback quite yet. Britney Spears still isn't all the way there. At least not from the standpoint of the kickoff concert of her much-anticipated Circus tour - her first trek in five years - at the New Orleans Arena Tuesday night.
While she avoided the train wreck that was her 2007 MTV Video Music Awards appearance, a visibly nervous Spears, performing in front of enthusiastic fans near her Kentwood, La., hometown, never really hit her old stride.
The circus-themed extravaganza, played out across an adventurous three-ring set, opened with an extended introduction featuring clowns, acrobats and jugglers, making it way too long before Spears finally hit the stage.
Descending from above in a red ringmaster-meets-dominatr ix outfit to sing her hit "Circus," she showed that her body was tight, even if her dancing always wasn't. Indeed, throughout the show's four sections, there was a lot more strutting than real choreographic feats from Spears. And there was a decided lack of joy in her performance, which felt labored at times.

When a Star Falls Down (for Britney Spears)
Tori wrote this song before her concert in Melbourne, Australia
on September 11, 2007.
(Spoken: Yes, I have a comment to make. Because I know something.)
Britney, they set you up
But you drank from their cup
Britney, they set you up
Oh, but this is what it looks like, love
This is what is looks like
When a star falls down
When a star falls down
Well, maybe you're a mother
But you still need your mother
Yes, I may be a mother
But I still need a mother
To pick me up
Yes, to pick me up
When it all falls down
When it all falls down
Britney, they set you up
Is your contract winding up?
But you drank from the cup
Boy, this is what it looks like
Yes, I said, this is, this is what it looks like, Disney, yes
When a star falls down
When a star falls down
You may be a mother
Baby, you still need a mother
Yes, I may be a mother
But I still need a mother
To pick me up
Yes, to pick me up
When it all falls down
When it all falls down
When it all falls, all falls down
When it all falls down

Entertainers generally fail to impress me. Nobody is worth hundreds of dollars just so I can sit sevral hundred metres away from them. The only two I recall who did come across as halfway decent people were Slim Dusty who did limit his audience sizes & was always at the door after his shows to thank people for coming, a real gentleman. The other is Chad Morgan (the sheik of scrubby creek) who wandered across after a performance to ask partner (female) & moi to ask if he could buy us a drink and have a chat about our opinion on his presentation. |

| I wouldn't cross the street to hear these modern day WANNABES attempts to sing.Most of them could not spell MUSIC or HARMONIES, let alone know what they are.To all you people who pay BIG DOLLARS to see them,you get what you deserve.Maybe? you will think twice next time.IF you want TRUE MUSIC AND PROFESSIONALISM go see Cliff Richard & The Shadows OR The Beach Boys. |

buzz - this is quite sad to read.
People are shelling out hundreds - even thousands - to basically see a tamed down circus show!
Save your money everyone!
There's probably a Silvers circus playing near you and heaps cheaper! |

Excuse me while I throw up. Criticising Britney Spears is one thing - heck, it's the RIGHT thing - she blows (no pun intended (seriously, I hate puns)). But to follow up by putting Cliff Richard any sort of pedestal... it's just wrong. |

At least they were able to admit it.
Basically implying they sucked at their jobs.
Altho Britney wont. |
