What Could Have Been
Illusionist Criss Angel is really opening up for the first time about his aborted performance with Britney Spears at the MTV Video Music Awards.
He explains:
"With Britney I presented concepts to create, within her performance, illusions that would happen in the open. You would see Britney and then she would split into two Britneys and then four Britneys with no boxes or covers. It would just be a visual effect using no screens. People in the past have used the art of magic in music performances but mostly in a cheesy way. Magic has not kept up with popular culture and technology.
Other things I wanted to do with her was to literally transform her into birds and then for her to reappear in the audience. I also thought of having her levitate over the audience. It was going to be really visual moments that were all epic tableaux that were beautiful, artistic, elegant and, most important, unique — things MTV hasn't seen in music. I wanted to captivate people in the moment. That was the essence of what I wanted to do with the Britney performance, because I think the performance she did with the snake was a highlight of her career and I wanted to trump that and I thought we had it."
So, what happened?
"Britney is really strong with her own ideas. And what I had planned wasn't an easy thing to do and would have required a lot of rehearsals. Ultimately, I told her I needed 100% commitment or I wasn't going to be able to do this. I told her that, 'You have to feel comfortable.' So, we explored it and she decided it wasn't for her, and I completely understand."
Quote Of The Day
In other words, she is a lazy bitch who couldn't be bothered with putting on a really good show. "I AM BRITNEY!! All I have to do is show up and the world will fall at my feet!!"
Now that Adnan is her P A there is no chance that anyone will be able to speak to her or access her without his say so , this should keep him happy until he can marry her , get Power of Attorney This is all about the money she has and has nothing to do with love from his side . If he truly loved her he would not be parading her around , she has definately fallen under his svengali spell and there is nothing anyone can do. Her lawyers , financial advisors , hangers on must be having a shit fit as Adnan is calling the shots now. How long til we see him driving a Ferrari

The British boyfriend of Britney Spears is being paid by the fallen pop star to act as her glorified gofer, it has been revealed.
Photographer Adnan Ghalib is earning several thousand pounds a week for his services as a driver and assistant to Miss Spears, according to sources.
In addition, Birmingham-born Mr Ghalib, 35, has been cleaning the singer's house, running general errands and acting as her chief defender and representative in interviews.
Seemingly unconcerned by her new boyfriend's money-making pursuits, Miss Spears, 26, has been spending most of her time with Mr Ghalib, who recently moved into her Malibu mansion.

And over the weekend, according to a source, she bought him a brand new Mercedes to drive her around in.
“Britney is showering Adnan with gifts because she's desperate to hang on to him,” a source told Mail Online.
DAILY MAIL UK MONDAY -
“She sees him as the one constant in her life right now. She's totally blind to his money making schemes.”
Indeed, a new sports car is said to be the least of Mr Ghalib's financial ambitions. Sources say he is looking to profit as much as possible from his relationship with Miss Spears.
One source says he is charging upwards of $1,000 to talk to US magazine reporters “off the record” about their relationship.

Last week, he got his fingers burned when he tried to sell photos of him together with Britney for £500,000. He ended up making just £20,000 - with a large percentage purportedly being taken by Britney herself.
The stress of being in the public eye appeared to be showing on Mr Ghalib, who reportedly “threw a wobbler” at photographers yesterday - demanding respect from his former colleagues as he took the Toxic singer out for lunch in Los Angeles.
DAILY MAIL UK MONDAY - ADNAN DEMANDS RESPECT FROM PAPARAZZI
The stress of being in the public eye appeared to be showing on Mr Ghalib, who reportedly “threw a wobbler” at photographers yesterday - demanding respect from his former colleagues as he took the Toxic singer out for lunch in Los Angeles.
“He came out spitting bullets and started demanding respect,” said an eyewitness. “He said he had seen people hiding in bushes by his house and told them they had better stop or they'd be sorry.”
So Adnan is being employed as her PA thats a new way of describing the oldest profession in the world !! She bought him a mercedes to drive her around in - how many cars does she have , why didnt they just use one of the ones there already .They Just wait he'll be upgraded to ferrari - probably one ordered as we speak KFED got one didnt he , Next he'll be taking flying lessons and she 'll buy him a private jet . You can just see where this is going. SPEND SPEND SPEND .
Wow Britney finally did something right. You go girl. Won't be long before Criss becomes a has been. He was just using her anyway. And … no time to shave?? so no shower ..etc. hmm
You know why she didn't do it? Because she's a lazy bitch and didn't want to rehearse.
Perez why won't you let me comment on Criss and how Britney did the right thing.
OK, so to sum up what he meant…
"Britney has the attention span of a peanut. 'Nuff said!"
omg she's so fat!!!!!
why she wants to dance? Couldn't she sing whitout dance?
She dances like a grandmother now!!!!!!
i don't get it, why wouldn't she want to do that??
In other words, she was too lazy to rehearse propely and wanted to to something easier. So he decided it was too risky to proceed so the bit was cancelled.
SNORE. This is old news, reported by the other sites two days ago. Perez, you really should stop spending so much time making STOOPID videos of yourself and get back to doing the gossip thing before you become irrelevant.
How embarrassing for Criss Angel… Brit chose Adnan instead.
She can avoid all this madness. Adnan can leave in the van and cover a bunch of pillows in the back seat with a fake wig showing to look like she is hiding in the back seat and take another car to go whereever she needs to go and they won't know where she is. Or use her assistant to make her coffee, cigarette or gas runs for her. They will follow the vehicle. Now if they turn up where she is then it will be clear that she is or Adnan is tipping the Paps off for the attention.
Britney has always wanted to have slut image for years. Maybe she was sexualized too young. Who knows Maybe she thinks being HOT and doing a strip how is cutting edge. It is like she very base is slutty schhool girl Hit Me Baby One MOre TIme, The Britney before that has dissappeared. She bought her sister a "Hot Mama 2B Shirt" She doesn't get that there is nothing hot about a 16 year old knocked up having to get a GED. Crazy drug addicted whatever the core of Britney seems shallow stupid and selfish. I've known lots of crazy or druggie people and beyond their issues you could see a genuine human being. Britney is like a poster of herself an image on paper thats all. I just don't see thnigs getting better for her.

Oh look, a picture of Britney with her legs spread. What a surprise. *YAWN*
Big mistake Brit, she should have went for it.
Re: ms wonderland –
Not all white people are as ignorant as those fools…please don't take what these losers say to heart. Most white people are appalled by this sort of crap.
SHE IS AN IDIOT! That performance would have brought her career back, but she chose to go out to the clubs instead. She wasted Chris Angel, the backup dancers, and the viewers time with her bad lip synching and two step dance!
She looks like Jabba the Hutt.
she doesn't deserve this kind of attention. Criss should offer his services to somebody who really matters. Somebody who would work hard and appreciate the beauty of magic and how it may transform future performances. Britney will end up in a psych ward..the cameras will go away, and what was it all for? Such a shame.
Re: ms wonderland – It's the same racist white, good ole boys are posting racist shit in order to get things stirred up. They post as whites hating on blacks and they post as black girls hating on white girls. It's obvious, therefore, I ignore their posts. Just ignore them, you know most white people aren't that ignorant and uneducated.
Oh and I'm a white guy by the way!
The real trick would be to make her act like a normal human being!!
That being said–I have a little more respect for Angel. He wasn't vile or nasty about Brit–even though he had a right to be.
I swear it looks like she is getting ready to crap on the stage! The lowest of lows, when you start banging the papparazzi!
Re: WHITES ARE TRULY INFERIOIR – LEARN HOW TO SPELL FIRST, IT SHOWS YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO EDUCATION AND FOR ANY ONE HERE THAT SAYS THE BLACKS ARE BETTER BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN IS JUST BEING SO NEGATIVE AND A RACIST DOUCHE BAG , HONESTLY YOUR RACE HAS IT'S FLAWS TOO, EVERY RACE HAS THEIR FLAWS AND ENOUGH ABOUT THIS BLACK AND WHITE , WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEING, EXCEPT THAT SOME OF US ARE MORE EDUCATED THAN OTHERS NO MATTER WHAT THE RACE MAY BE
Re: I hate hypocrites – MORE POWER TO YOU, IT SHOWS YOU ARE EDUCATED AND SHOWS YOU KNOW HOW TO RESPECT OTHERS FOR WHO THEY ARE
Re: lex – AND PLEASE CLITNEY AND HER DUMBNESS IS NOT CONSIDERED GAY , I AM A GAY MAN AND I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THIS DUMB WHORE AND I FEEL THE SAME WAY TO EVERY OVER PAID USELESS CELEBRITARD
So it was HERSELF who f*cked up everything
Re: Dindadadindodo – BEST COMMENT EVER !!!!!!
Re: laquishamonifahpussyfart – IGNORANT FUCK, MOST PEOPLE IN JAIL OUR WHITE. ACCORDING TO THE CENSUS BLACK PEOPLE ONLY MAKE UP 12% OF THE POPULATION. IT'S AMAZING HOW REDNECKS ALWAYS HATE ON BLACK PEOPLE BUT COPY US AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY. GET OFF OUR BIG BLACK DICKS RED DEVEL…
Re: I hate hypocrites – THAT'S PRETTY FUNNY CONSIDERING BLACK PEOPLE NEVER POST RACIST SHIT FIRST, AND I'M SURE REAL RACIST DON'T FREQUENT THIS FAT SLOBS SITE. NOT EVERY WHITE PERSON IS RACIST AND NOT EVERY BLACK PERSON IS GHETTO. LETS STAY ON TOPIC AND IGNORE THE BULLSHIT..
I bet Brit is really sorry now!!! What an idiot!
That would have been sick as hell! THAT would have been a comeback! DAMN YOU BRITNEY! You lazy slob!
she's a stupid bitch. i guess walking around with her shed and fat ass with an outfit that was 2 sizes too small was a much BETTER idea. criss must have been laughing his ASS off watching her performance!
Re: leS uk – I was one of Britney's biggest fans, but I'm done! I've lost all hope for this fucking retard! This stunt with that paki Adnan what ever his name is was the last straw for me. I no longer support Britney. She's just going to make another jobless loser guy "famous" and all over the tabloids! K-Fed was enough we don't need K-Fed 2.0 paki edition. I'm with everyone who says she'll be dead by 2009, I'm hoping so we can all be put out of our misery having to see this retarded skank on TV and hear about her drug addict bi-polar disorder ways! What happened 2 Thurday nights ago was ridiculous! Her 2 sec hospital stay was all over the place. I doubt this bitch is going to make anymore music or effort into promoting it, so she's of no use anymore. She needs to just go away or die or something because I'm sick of hearing about her. And she can take her skank ass sister too, and that alli sims chick and that other paki osama lutfi. Stupid whore bringing all these useless people into the spotlight. Pisses me off.
Love, an Ex-Britney fan!
YEA ………….. I BET THEY EXPLORED SOMTHING ALLRIGHT !!!! Not sure how much of an illusion that really was though !!
Stupid stupid bitch
She can't commit to her damn kids …how the fuck was she going to commit to a magic show.
That ,though, Would have been awsome to see
Re: IGNORE THE RACISTS – Haha fools nothing.. if you're offended, TAKE IT ELSEWHERE. It has nothing to do with the color of the skin. What i meant in my post is the fact i dont know where races come in with this post. I took notice of a black woman saying something offensive about white people, and then a bunch of others popped off about it, and LIKE YOU, had to speak my mind about it. All i was saying is that its ridiculous to bring up your issues with white people just because you're offended and pissed off. THAT'S WHAT IT SEEMS LIKE TO ME. OTHERWISE, it would be kept to yourself. People can't help but get a rise out of someone. That is all. Get your man panties out of a bunch MS WONDERLAND and whomever else. Fuckers.
I wonder if she fucks like she dances all sloshy like.
No worries Criss…she can't handle your…uh…Magic?
Britney you know you should have done it
This would have been the most spectactual music performance ever
i love criss angel
WOW - sounds pretty cool. Then again ANYTHING would have been better than that huge pile of shit she crapped out on that stage!!!
Illusions…. tricks are what a whore does for money.
In this concert…britney broke the heel of her shoe.. in other words.. she was tryin 2 keep her balance while being on stage with a broken heel.. O.o!!!
FUCK HER!
EWWWW!! loz!
