Britney Spears Kicks Off ‘Circus’ Tour In New Orleans

Britney’s back, bitch. The formerly-troubled star delighted New Orleans last night with a spectacular in-the-round set lasting almost two hours. The career-spanning concert featured clowns, acrobats, aerialists and pyrotechnics - and although Britney is reported to have mimed the entire set to pre-recorded vocals (quelle surprise), the crowd reaction is said to have been extremely positive.
