Australians Walk On Out Britney Spears Concert - Starpulse.com

Britney SpearsBritney Spears fans stormed out of the pop superstar's show in Perth, Australia on Friday night, insisting the singer was terrible.

The exodus began just three songs into her Aussie tour debut - after fans made it clear they were unhappy with the star's lacklustre performance and miming.

One fan, Josh Blee, tells the Sydney Daily Telegraph, "It was crap... She has let us down."

Other concertgoers complained they couldn't even see the singer miming on the big screens above the stage because she mostly performed with her back to the cameras. And she never addressed the fans who had paid for expensive tickets.

Friday night's outrage came just 24 hours after Virginia Judge, the New South Wales Minister for Fair Trading, urged ticket agencies to warn fans about touring stars who don't sing live.

Taking aim at Spears in particular, Judge said, "Live means live. If you are spending up to $200, I think you deserve better than a film clip. The NSW Government would be happy to look at options, such as a disclaimer on a ticket which would warn consumers a performance is pre-recorded."

Kevin Federline To Be A Father Again - Undercover Music News

Posted: 07 Nov 2009 04:25 PM PST

by Music-News.com - November 7 2009

The ex-husband of Britney Spears has announced his fifth child is on the way.

The aspiring rapper – who has sons Sean Preston, four, and Jayden James, three, with ex-wife Britney Spears and Kori, seven, and five-year-old Kaleb with former girlfriend Shar Jackson – was reportedly unhappy when current partner Victoria Prince broke the news she is pregnant.

A source told America's National Enquirer magazine: "The test was positive. She told Kevin that she was pregnant, but he didn't seem happy to hear the news."

Kevin – who has been dating the volleyball star for just under a year – is said to be desperately unhappy about welcoming a child into the world.

Another insider said: 'Under no circumstances does he want another kid now. He's not even acknowledging the possibility. He's awful when it comes to birth control. Kevin thinks it's the woman's responsibility."

Kevin and Victoria have not confirmed the pregnancy, however pals admit they have had their suspicions about the sportswoman's condition for several weeks.

One pal explained: 'Victoria thought she was pregnant after she felt sick after lunch one day. Victoria's been ill off and on, so everyone suspects that she's expecting."

Britney Spears' lip-syncing pisses off Australian gov't - The Superficial

An Australian government official has made the astute observation that Britney Spears fans are basically morons who have no idea she's lip-syncing her entire stage show, according to People:

Virginia Judge, the Minister for Fair Trading for New South Wales (the Australian state that includes Sydney), said she is considering options to make sure fans aren't misled when buying tickets to Britney's Circus tour concerts. Some seats are going for more than $1,300.
"It is Britney's 'prerogative' to lip-sync, and it is my job to make sure consumers know what they are paying for up front," Judge said in a statement released by the government.
One idea is to require disclaimers on promotional materials and tickets indicating that portions of a show will be pre-recorded.

Here's what I don't get: With the vast array of technology used to make it look like Britney Spears can sing, dance and not murder her children with a bucket of chicken, do they even really need her at this point? They could probably replace her with a cat and save a shitload of money on Starbucks expenditures alone. People would be like, "Hey, did you get the new singing cat album?" and I'd be all "Meow, yeah!" because that's how popular it would be. True story.

Rihanna opens up to Glamour: 'I felt like I went to sleep as Rihanna ... - New York Daily News

Posted: 03 Nov 2009 10:46 AM PST

Tuesday, November 3rd 2009, 1:15 PM

LOS ANGELES - Rihanna's brutal beating at the hands of boyfriend Chris Brown left her humiliated, lonely and feeling like Britney Spears, the singer says.

"I felt like I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears," the singer told Glamour magazine in her first print interview since the February attack.

"That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. It was like, What, there are helicopters circling my house? There are 100 people in my cul-de-sac? What do you mean, I can't go back home?"

Named one of Glamour's 2009 Women of the Year, Rihanna said her family, friends and fans were crucial, but she couldn't help feeling isolated after the assault.

"At some point you are there alone. It's a lonely place to be. No one can understand. That's when you get close to God," she said.

The leaked photo showing her bruised and battered face was another major blow.

"It was humiliating," she said. "That is not a photo you would show to anybody. I felt completely taken advantage of ... like people were making it into a fun topic on the Internet, and it's my life."

Still, the Barbados beauty said she's "stronger, wiser and more aware" as she enters a new chapter with her upcoming album "Rated R" due for release Nov. 23.

"Domestic violence is a big secret. No kid goes around and lets people know their parents fight. Teenage girls can't tell their parents that their boyfriend beat them up. You don't dare let your neighbor know that you fight. It's one of the things we will hide, because it's embarrassing," she said.

"My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn't heard."

Rihanna, 21, calls her new album "really personal."

"I've put everything I've wanted to say for the past eight months into my music," she said. "It's super fearless, which is exactly how I feel right now."

The singer opens up more in a TV interview with ABC News' Diane Sawyer set to air Thursday and Friday on "Good Morning America," and Friday night at 10 on "20/20."

Chris Brown fessed up to felony assault in June and must complete six months of community labor and five years' probation.
