Britney Spears New Tour – Just a Circus, or a Good Show?
The Circus is coming to town! So, which will it be? Britney Spears’ life, or the promotional tour for her new album? Britney has chosen to open her tour on March 3, 2009 in New Orleans. The Circus Tour is the famous pop star’s long-awaited re-entry into the music industry. During recent years, all of the focus on Britney has been on her personal life, but both her fans and music executives hope that Britney’s Circus Tour will revive her superstar status, and serve to welcome a new Britney Spears to the world. NEW ALBUM, NEW STAR?
Circus, Britney Spears’ sixth studio record, was released on November 28, 2008. Circus has already reached number one on the Billboard charts. The Spears’ Circus Tour will support the album, and all eyes will be on Ms. Spears. Sadly, they won’t simply be watching her to see how well she does, but to see if she flies or falls on her face, again. Circus’ success is in keeping with her other studio hits. This latest release is Britney’s fifth number one album on the Billboard 200 charts.
Some will say that the name of her latest tour, the Britney Spears Circus Tour, is a fitting title. Her life has been circus-like for the last couple of years due to rumored drug use, dissolving personal relationships, and bizarre behavior. Despite the negative attention, Britney Spears can command an audience, and the Britney Spears Circus Tour should prove her pizzazz. Britney began to enter back into the spotlight in early 2008 with guest appearances on popular television sitcoms. In September 2008, she opened the MTV Video Music Awards and went on to win several awards there. Shortly after that, her record label, Jive Records, announced that Circus was on its way. Only 11 days later, ?Womanizer’ was released to radio stations with mixed reviews. Just a couple of weeks later, the single jumped to the Billboard Top 100 charts. With higher than expected sales, more dates have been added to the Britney Spears Circus Tour.
Britney has benefited of late from the unwavering support of her family, friends, and her fans. They have brought more balance to her life. They’ve brought her to a place where she’s experiencing a more even keel. Without this support, and her arrival at a new level of peace she would never have been able to begin such an undertaking as her Circus Tour. But a year ago, with all of the dramatic, devastating and bizarre things that were going on in Britney’s life, no one could ever have imagined a number one single or a number one album one, short year later. Nonetheless, Britney has done just that. And proven the nay-sayers wrong along the way. With top debut sales on her sixth studio album, Circus, she is well on her way to becoming one of the top-selling female pop stars of 2008.
Catch the ‘Circus’ Tour
Britney Spears set the tone for her “reincarnation” through a much-anticipated performance on Good Morning America. Her first single from Circus, which began sales on her 27th birthday, December 2nd, is entitled “Womanizer” and it has made a great impression on the music industry. This title track has arguably already proven that Britney can still sell both music and concerts.
Britney Spears’ Circuit Tour will be produced by famed director and choreographer Wade Robson. The Pussycat Dolls is the opening act for Britney, whose 42 city Circus Tour opens in New Orleans on March 3, 2009. The show ends on April 28, 2009, and spends 8 tour dates in Europe in June, 2009.
Despite the difficulties of her personal life over the last few years, Britney Spears’ Circus Tour might just be one of the hottest selling tours of 2009. Although it’s easy to get caught up in her bad press of late, her fans have never forgotten that she already has an impressive musical career. All Circus need do is to contribute to her already impressive musical career. So, far, it’s on a roll. The Britney Spears Circus Tour and her over 500,000 copies sold of Circus are a great start to the long-awaited, and much-renewed Britney Spears. Circus has been her long-awaited album since Blackout in 2007. What a difference a year makes! Hopefully the madness and drama are over, and the Britney Spears Circus Tour can bring back the old Britney Spears who was full of stamina and knockout performances.
