Britney in trouble over miming down under
Britney Spears hasn’t even started her Australian tour yet, and she’s already stirring up controversy.
A politician down under has criticised Britters for miming during her Circus Tour and proposed a new law forcing performers to reveal to fans if they plan to mime.
The terrifyingly-named Fair Trade Minister Virginia Judge says, “Let’s be clear, live means live – if you are spending up to 200 Australian dollars, I think you deserve better than a film clip.”
In Britney’s defence, her tour manager Steve Dixon, responds,”This is a pop spectacular, this is a showband show. You come for the experience.
“There is a lot to see about this show, there’s nothing like this in the world. Britney Spears will entertain you, that’s what people come for. We absolutely give them a show.”
We presume that means she WILL be miming when the tour kicks off in Perth today.
