With so many other important issues affecting the lives of Australians, the Government has chosen to focus on none other than Britney Spears and her lip-syncing spectacle. A new legislation is being put forward to enforce performers to state whether they intend to mime during their concerts on their tickets. Yes, I understand that it is annoying when your favourite artist promises a live show and you end up with a backing track but when it comes to Britney Spears, well what do you expect?

I own two Britney Spears ‘In Concert’ DVDs, and I have seen countless performances on talk shows, award nights etc. Now, if you purchased a Britney Spears ticket expecting her to sing every single song live, you are deluded. I have not seen one performance where the entire concert was sang live, even in her prime.

I bought my Britney tickets in full knowledge that she was going to mime. Does it bother me? No. It’s Britney for christs sake. I’m going for the performance. The costumes, the dancing, the lights, the effects and yes, even the whips. I’m going to have a fun night and enjoy the songs I spent my early adolescence dancing and singing along to.

So to all those Perth fans who walked out on Britney, boo to you.

LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!
