About Britney Spears
Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American singer, dancer, songwriter, actress and author. She has sold over 83 million records worldwide according to Zomba Label Group.
Britney Spears wants Madonna to join her on her upcoming 'Circus' tour. Wade Robson - who is choreographing the 27-year-old singer's comeback shows - has revealed Britney is keen for her 50-year-old idol to join her on stage at one of her concerts.
He said:
"I'm choreographing and set-designing Britney's tour. There has been talk of Madonna making an appearance, and there's so many place we could take that. At this point, the main issue is timing." This would not be the first time Britney and Madonna have appeared on stage together.
They famously locked lips at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, and Britney also performed 'Human Nature' with Madonna as part of her 'Sticky and Sweet' world tour last month. It was recently reported Britney's tour, to support her new LP 'Circus', is inspired by her breakdown, and will see the mother-of-two flee to the circus before emerging from the end of a rainbow following a thunderstorm.
A source said: "Britney is well aware of what a roller coaster she has been on. She thought the best metaphor to use would be the circus. Fans get to travel with her through her fall from grace and her eventual rehabilitation."
Britney, 27, famously went off the rails following the end of her marriage to Kevin Federline. She shaved her head in February 2007 and was hospitalised several times - most famously in January of this year when she refused to return sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two, to their father.
Since then, Britney's dad Jamie has taken on co-conservatorship of her affairs and she has begun to turn her life and career around. 'The Circus Starring Britney Spears' begins in New Orleans on March 3.

Britney Spears is a wanted woman.
Oprah Winfrey says she wants Britney Spears to be on her show. Madonna loves working with Spears. And now fans have made the comeback pop princess' new album, Circus, a hit.
So you’d think that fellow pop rocker Katy Perry would jump at the chance to work with Brit, right? Well, actually, no.
"She wouldn't be the girl I would collaborate with necessarily," Perry said Saturday at KIIS-FM’s Jingle Ball concert outside of L.A. "She's not on the top of my list. There are other people I'd much rather work with first. I love John Legend's record. So how about I collaborate with him?"
But Perry knows never to say never, explaining she needs some face time with Spears before making any final calls. "I work with people I love," Perry said. "I only work with them if I love them. If we click, we click, but if we clash, we clash...So I’d have to see. I'd have to meet [Spears]."
Meanwhile, Perry is taking the high road when it comes to the Grammys. Much to everyone's surprise, she received only one nomination: Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for her megahit "I Kissed a Girl." No doubt she should have also gotten noms for Best New Artist and Record of the Year.
"This is my first year being up for nominations, so I'm just happy that I even got the one nod," Perry said. "I mean, I could have been left with no nominations!"

She's got a Circus theme for her album, her tour, her "Good Morning America" appearance and even her birthday party.
For her 27th birthday bash in New York on Tuesday night, Britney Spears turned nightclub Tenjune into a three-ring circus. Brit showed up in a low-cut Roberto Cavalli cocktail dress, with her hair done up loosely. The party was attended by her mom, Lynne, as well as celebrities like Ciara, Lance Bass and Jeremy Piven.
The party was featured jugglers, a man on stilts and carnival concessions like hot dogs and popcorn, according to UsMagazine.com. Outside, circus images were projected onto a screen.
Spears told "Entertainment Tonight" her simple birthday wish: "A million more wishes!"
"I've definitely known her for a long time and it's been amazing to see the career she's had," Lance Bass told "ET" outside the party. "It's going to be an amazing career for her. It's great when people do themes to their albums."
Fellow partygoer Ciara was also excited to spend Britney's big day with her, and was hesitant to label Circus a comeback record. "I was actually watching her interview the other day where she said she doesn't like the word 'comeback,' so I won't say that," she told ET. "But, I'm happy her album is coming out. She's taking us into her circus and I'm enjoying it."
"It's going to be great to see her," Bass added. "I'm so proud of her. I'm really happy. I don't think she went anywhere. I think the album is amazing. I'm already falling in love with it."
As she was presented with a circus-themed birthday cake, Barry Weiss, CEO and president of Jive Records, Brit's label, told the singer, "We are so proud and so happy to be a part of your life. Looking at your two boys today, it's an amazing experience."

Britney Spears made her return to network television this morning, performing “Circus” and “Womanizer” from her new album Circus (out today) on Good Morning America, and two of your Rock Daily editors were lucky enough to win front-row tickets to the Big Apple Circus spectacular via Spears’ Website. So what didn’t you see on national TV while we munched on red velvet birthday cake and wooed on command? Keep reading for photos from the scene and more.
• Longtime Spears choreographer Wade Robson stepped onto the stage before the cameras rolled, checking out the cage from which dancers emerged during “Circus.” Her manager, Larry Rudolph, did a similar walk-through before “Womanizer.”
• Spears’ sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, were carried in and out of the arena several times by beefy bodyguards. Fans screamed their names, and Jayden waved to the crowd from his seat next to Britney’s mom, Lynne. He later bopped a bodyguard on the head with the “Britney Spears/Happy Birthday” sign he was clutching.
• Fans went nuts when the lights went down and Spears got on top of the cage for the start of “Circus.” Though she was crouched in position and concentrating hard, she gave a little wave and smile to people on either side of the stage.
• A stagehand armed with a fire extinguisher crouched next to the stage, ready to douse the flames on the circle Spears’ stepped through at the start of “Womanizer.”
• An army of men in trenchcoats and earpieces roamed the premises to ensure Brit’s safety. The one in front of us scrunched down to avoid blocking sightlines during “Womanizer” and got a special tap on the head from a dancer perched nearby.
• Attendees were given samples of Britney’s fragrances upon entering, and clown noses from the Big Apple Circus on the way out.
• The crew of fans dressed like Britney were relocated for their interview with Sam Champion and sent back to their seats for the performance. The rest of the crowd chuckled during their chat.
• To pass the time between segments, clowns from the Big Apple Circus roamed the crowd, tossing beach balls and performing a few hat tricks.

The sex tape Britney Spears’ ex-boyfriend was said to be shopping around just doesn’t exist.
At least that’s the latest word from the man himself, Adnan Ghalib. The former paparazzo, who was once an ever-present fixture in the pop star’s life, is now speaking out.
Earlier this week, Heat magazine published a story detailing Adnan’s alleged attempt to sell a two-hour tape, which supposedly featured the “Toxic” singer wearing nothing but her once-signature pink wig. In an interview with Star, Adnan insists the report was completely fabricated.
“There is no sex tape, and I’ve never claimed there is one,” he said. “I don't know where these quotes I’m supposed to have said have come from. What I do know is they certainly didn't come from me and they are completely false.”
The ex-lensman went on to say the sex-tape story distressed him, and he intends to clear his name by taking legal action.

Britney Spears is set to release a series of workout DVDs. The 'Womanizer' singer, who proudly showed off her newly toned figure at the MTV Video Music Awards last month, has been inspired by fitness guru Jane Fonda to don a Lycra leotard and help her fans get in shape.
A source said: "Britney wants to put out a series of workout videos. The idea was inspired by Britney's love of dance and how it helped her get back into shape. It seems Britney found her mom's old Fonda tapes, popped them into an old VCR machine and got a big kick out of watching them."
Although the 26-year-old star is yet to confirm her DVD venture, her record label has fuelled the rumours. A Jive/Zomba representative said: "The idea makes perfect sense, given Britney is a singer who uses dance so much in her act."
Britney is currently preparing to release her new album 'Circus' on December 2 and is hoping it will be a huge success.
A source said: "Britney is telling everyone she doesn't just want to debut at number one, but she wants it to break all kinds of records for a new release."

While her new single, "Womanizer" may be getting tons of airplay (do you love it or hate it?) it's Britney Spears' new look and body that has everyone buzzing. A source close to the 5-foot-4 Spears, 26, tells Us Weekly Magazine that she has shed 15 to 20 pounds, thanks to three months on meal-delivery plan Sunfare.The magazine notes that the plan is available in Los Angeles and right here in Phoenix starting at $52 per day, and information is available at sunfare.com). "She receives between 1,100 and 1,200 calories per day," says the insider of the three meals and two snacks (each comprised of 30 percent protein, 40 percent carbs, and 30 percent fat).
***
"She loves the turkey burger, chipotle chicken wrap and lasagna. She also gets a sugar-free dessert two to three times per week." And staying active is key. Another source says she works out with a trainer for up to two hours, three times a week (30 minutes of cardio, then strength training), in addition to dance rehearsals, which are "her way of having fun and working off steam."
Is it working, will Britney Spears finally be back on track for good? She seems like she is working towards making a big comeback, we will wait and see what happens as she moves forward.

BRITNEY Spears is considering a spell on Broadway in a bid to help kick start her pop comeback, according to reports.
The singer -- whose sixth studio album, Circus, is released in December -- checked out a performance of musical In The Heights during her trip to New York last week, to promote her new single Womanizer.
And, according to the New York Daily News, the Toxic hitmaker is looking for the right part to make her stage debut.
Spears has previously acted in movie Crossroads, and several episodes of sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
It was recently reported that the star was contemplating a move to NYC.
According to MSNBC, she has spoken to her ex-husband Kevin Federline, who she has two sons with, about the prospect of leaving Miami and relocating to the US city.
A source said, "Britney always toys with the idea of going to New York. Obviously there's no chance that is happening unless Kevin moves, too."
During a recent radio interview, Britney revealed her love New York -- and her regret at selling her apartment there.

Pop star Britney Spears' mom Lynne Spears has revealed that she and her now separated husband Jamie used an argument between Britney and her then manager Sam Lufti to "start taking charge" of their daughter's downward spiralling life.Contactmusic.com reports that Lufti had excluded Spears' mom from her life and her parents knew it was time to do something when it looked like Britney was on course for a nervous breakdown.
Lynne said:
"We had police calling us, telling us things that were going on. That's when we said, 'We've got to do something, we prayed about it'. We had been trying to get in, we couldn't... When she had an argument with that individual, who I just don't even want to talk about, that was the opening and we took advantage of it. We got in and that's when we were able to start taking charge."

After two days of madness and mayhem on the streets of New York, pop superstar Britney Spears took some time for herself on Tuesday night when she took in a showing of Broadway hit In the Heights.
Audience members at the Richard Rodgers Theatre tell OK! that Brit was ushered to her seat once the lights were dimmed for the opening number.
"She looked really good," said one theater patron about the star. "I saw her hair and her sparkly eyes."
As the musical's cast began to take their curtain calls at the end of the show, Britney was rushed out of her seat — but she it wasn't so she could head back to her hotel right away.
"She came backstage," says In the Heights star Doreen Montalvo. "She was so sweet and generous. She took pictures with the cast and musicians."
According to co-star Robin de Jesus, Brit was "totally cool," when she came backstage. "She was freaking awesome."
That sentiment was echoed by actress Karen Olivio, who told OK!, "It's always great to have another performer there for you."
The theater trip finished off a second day of business and shopping in NYC -- in which she'd whipped up the kind of pandemonium that only Britney can, bringing entire city blocks grinding to a halt and turning even the most icy-cool, seen-it-all-before neighborhoods into a madhouse of screaming fans.
The Princess of Pop spent the day leading a train of a dozen or more cars full of photogs and fans through the already-chaotic New York traffic, as she darted up and down Manhattan like a yo-yo -- searching for the perfect place to shop!
Looking chic in a stripy red-and-black top and black beret, she started the day with another business meeting in a Midtown skyscraper.
Then Brit headed way down town to the exclusive Fragments jewelry store in the trendy SoHo shopping area -- but only managed to take one step out of her SUV before getting mobbed and jumping back into the car!
Bizarrely, she then called by her nearby hotel for a few minutes before turning around and taking the whole crazy procession weaving through the traffic again to a swank mall just a few blocks from where she had taken the meeting less than an hour earlier -- only to call in at one store and head all the way back to the hotel!
But this time Brit made sure she got her retail fix by having the whole of the Mont Martre store closed down just for her.
She tried on a pile of clothes, including a turquoise silk cowl-neck top ($198), before leaving with armful of goodies.
Then after a quick stop to change into a glam black dress, the ever-expanding Spears Parade was on the move again, heading all the way back up to the Broadway theater district for the show.
We never thought we'd say this, but when that girl leaves town, New York is going to seem like an oasis of calmness and tranquility!

Pop star's attorney seeks to dismiss the case once again
Britney Spears' attorney has filed a petition on her behalf asking that the upcoming trial on her driving-without-a-license charge be postponed or dismissed.
Attorney J Michael Flanagan has made repeated requests for the dismissal of the case, arguing that the pop star should only be required to pay a $10 fine and not face criminal charges, but the requests have been denied.
Now he is asking the Los Angeles Superior Court to stay the case, alleging that she is "unable to meaningfully participate in her defence because of her conservatorship", reports the Associated Press.
He is also asking an appellate judge to order the superior court judge to dismiss the case.
Spears is due to appear in court in October to face misdemeanour charges of driving without a valid California license stemming from an incident in which she hit a parked car in August 2007.
