Britney fails in Perth

It was not the triumphant return Britney Spears had hoped for.

Disgruntled fans stormed out of last night’s Australian debut of The Circus concert in Perth, upset by the star's miming and “appalling” performance on stage.

They began walking out after just three songs, some having paid $1,500 to see Spears perform.

“It was just really bad," Kathy Wright, 32, said.

“She has not spoken, there is no interaction.”

Friend Josh Blee said: “We are really big Britney fans but it was cr-p.”

“I thought after the music awards she would make up for it with a wicked concert, but she has let us down," he said.

Maria Carmody also left with a group of friends, saying the performance was appalling.

They were disappointed that the giant screens did not show any vision of Spears performing.

“She is a little dot on the stage," Ms Carmody said.

Ms Carmody was also disgusted by the unruly behaviour of fans in the general admission area, which lacked adequate security.

She said she was elbowed and pushed by overzealous fans.

Spears performed to over 17,000 fans at last night's concert at Perth Burswood Dome.

The screens only displayed circus images and Spears had her back to the audience for most of the show.

Several fans questioned whether the lack of vision on the giant screens was to cover up her lip synching.

Mods I've checked the comm right back to before the concert started and right up to what refreshed a minute ago, and the last two Britney posts are pre-concert news. This has clearly not yet been posted.
