Britney To Perform Vanishing Act

wenn-magic-britney-voice.jpg

Team Britney has been very selective with the details they've released regarding the upcoming Circus Tour.

The latest details come from "Misfit of Magic" Ed Alonzo, a magician who has been working with BritBrit on a series of tricks for which the singer will perform as a magician's assistant.

Alonzo said, "We're going to be doing the classics of magic but a little high-tech. We'll be doing a little dissection, transposition, a vanish, an appearance—and if I do a trick, she doesn't just hold the props, she's actually getting inside the big boxes or I am slicing her up."

He also complimented Britney's eagerness to jump right in and learn the tricks, saying, "I made [the tricks] really easy for her…but there are some complicated things that she is doing that you would think a contortionist would have to do, or a trained magician's assistant. But because…she's a dancer, it really makes sense to put her in the magic, and it works and she's really, really good at it. Some of it's pretty scary, but she gets right in there with no reservations."

As for the rest of the show, Alonzo divulged that the show is akin to "what you would see in a big giant Vegas production show, but it's going to be on the road…. It's like watching a big Cirque du Soleil high-tech circus, but with a really focused star in the middle of all of this" with anywhere between 75 and 100 crew members and performers on stage at any moment.

Sounds exciting!

Britney's tour kicks off this Tuesday in New Orleans.

    8. 8

      Not exciting..the bitch does not even sing live. How fucking lame is that? When I go to a show..I want to hear real live action, not some pre recorded bull shit. I listen to metal anyways so I really don't give a fuck.



    9. 9

      The same Ed Alonzo that played Max on Saved By The Bell?



    10. 10

      britney's cool man



    11. 11

      …she looks great.



    12. 12

      shes looking better…i hope she comes back soon - i'm not a britbrit fan boy, but i would like to see her performing again - she had a great stage presence at one time….and i hate to say it, but i think she should get back with kfed to…hes a great father and really could be her rock to anchor to…but thats just my op i guess



    13. 13

      Sad. Her dad is in court fighting her former managers, and you're doing advertising for her tour. Possibly because you're in it and making oodles of money. Poor Brit.

      Why does she have that stupid fuckin microphone on her head? she might as well be singing into a dildo, everyone knows she doesn't sing, why would people pay to watch a trailer park chick lip-synch for an hour and a half.



    15. 15

      Wow, sounds big!
      Too bad I can't be there.. Oh well I'l buy the dvd…



    16. 16

      I love her! I'm super excited about seeing her perform again!! Wish I could see her in New Orleans…they are so lucky. I gotta wait till LA show!



    17. 17

      She should at least have a huge show. To make up for her lack of live singing ability. I still cant believe people pay big money to see her lip synch. What a rip off



    18. 18

      Dissapointing… I thought they would be slicing you… that might have been more fun to watch!!!
      LONG LIFE TO PRINCESS BRITNEY!!!
      LONG LIFE TO PRINCESS BRITNEY!!!

    23. 23

      Re: Kate27 – They can't do that because there's not a saw big enough to slice through Perez's fat ass!



    24. 24

      boring



    34. 34

      go away shitney



    35. 35

      I think her shows are not about singing although she is a singer..
      I guess if you go to britneys tour it's because you wanna hear catchy songs, great dancing and just a big show. That is what she is about and that's what people like.. not so much her voice and sing live.. Like she doen't know that.



    36. 36

      nexxxxxxxt



    37. 37

      52

      When you have to lipsynch the whole show and can barely dance anymore you have to do a whole smoke and mirrors show. I wouldn't waste my money to go and see a magic show.



    53. 53

      im actually starting to like her now…just wish she would wake up and say: " I'm britney spears, I'm the fucking Princess of Pop" and then have more control…still i love her music :)



    54. 54

      They better come up with something good, cause this lip sinkin and arm dancin just isnt gettin it anymore.

    65. 65

      she should be ashamed of her self!….& so should everyone else that supports her whack ass music…..everyone wants to talk down on chris brown….but i think that a selfish "mother" that abandons her own children for her own career is worse than a man hitting a woman

      Sooo Ed rips off Rudy Coby's effects and then performs with a well known musician as well???? (Rudy performed with Marilyn Manson) I hope he isn't doing the robot table I mean the skeleton in a tutu table. Next thing you know, Ed will be doing the four legs.
