If you've been living under a rock you may not have heard the media lashing out at Britney Spears and her latest world tour. Last Friday night Britney Spears' Circus Tour kicked off its Australian leg in Perth. After one show the media had attatched it's self to the fact the Britney Spears was lip synching. Politicians even came out demanding that all performers should claim that they are going to be lip synching in their shows. But was Britney Spears lyp synching really that much of a shock? If you asked Perez Hilton he would say what else were you expecting and why do you care?, its BRITNEY SPEARS! John Mayer also defended the singer through twitter (http://twitter.com/johncmayer) claiming "If you're shocked that Britney was lip-syncing at her concert and want your money back, life may continue to be hard for you."
John Mayer was responding to the media 'circus' created by Rebekah Devlin's claims that fans had stormed out on Britneys concert. Here are a couple of the stories for you to ponder over if you haven't already seen them.
Article 1
Article 2
They seem completely based on fact. She has asked several punters for the points of views and clearly has severl quotes. The point is, however, that there is no mention of any part of the show going well. What kind of fair account of events is this? All we are reading is how bad the show was, how horrible it was that Britney mimed, and oh my god help us she didn't talk after two songs!! Lets all go home and slit our wrists shall we?
I saw Britney's show on Saturday, and it was fantastic! And that is a completely non-bias point of view. I'm no die hard Britney fan, I only own her first album and her first greatest hits release. After I turned 15 I stopped listening to pop music and only attended concerts with bands performing live. So for me this was a whole new experience and boy did Britney deliver. The show was literally a cricus. Britney would undergo costume changes, and the set would change regularly throughout the show. Every time this happened circus perfromers would come out and put on show. The concert was non-stop entertainment from start to finish.
Paul Cashmere highlights the flaws in Rebekah Devlin's cheap stabs at Britney's concert in Perth. Everything he says I could not agree with more. You must must MUST read this article. He makes it clear that he isn't a Britney fan but still enjoyed the show. He also suggests other news headlines that Devlin may have picked up if she wasn't so fixated on creating a storm of negative media.
