Britney’s long awaited comeback tour has finally kicked off in New Orleans the other night, and by all accounts, Britney delivered much more than many were expecting. Britney held a dress rehearsal at the New Orleans Arena on Monday night for a small group of 150 fans and all those in attendance were much more wowed than even they were hoping. Libby Davis, of Baton Rouge radio station WFMF who gave away tickets to the rehearsal said that even for a handful of fans Britney performed as if she were in front of a crowd of thousands. And for those that have been a little critical of her shape and figure, Britney has given no reason to continue the criticism as she showed off a body to die for. Davis reported that her arm and leg muscles even could be seen from where they were sitting, and that the scanty costumes designed for the show were enough to showcase just how sexy she is, while at the same time adding pomp and circumstance to the show’s entirety. The best descriptor of the show is ‘Cirque du Soleil Meets Moulin Rouge’ so for those of you with tickets to her Circus tour, know that you will be in for quite a showing. The dress rehearsal was intended for family and friends and a select few lucky fans that won tickets to the show, and the crowd was chanting loud and large to the tune of ‘Britney Britney Britney we support you!’ And Britney was all about being professional described Libby:
“She put on the entire show as if it were a full house. She catered to us. She even stopped during ‘Womanizer’ because she realized we couldn’t see her. She said, ‘Let’s do it over.’ ”
And, if you are acting as Britney’s manager these days, then you are sitting kinda pretty as she is returning back to her cash in the bank status. Britney’s manager, Larry Rudolph recently spoke with Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM Radio Show about the tour expectations, and he said that this will be a full out, full blown, Britney Spears show. He chalked all of Britney’s comeback success to her two children, Preston (3) and Jayden (2) who give her the strength and inspiration she needed to climb her way back up to the top of the charts. As far as her fans are concerned, it doesn’t seem to really matter what got her back there, the point being that she got back at all. This may go down as one of the biggest comebacks in American pop culture history, and well, if anybody is going to do that, it will be Britney.
