After Britney Spears received a savage review for her lip-synching performance at the start of her Australian tour in Perth, Brit Brit’s team are striking back. After her second show in Perth, her manager Adam Leber tweeted in defence, “It’s unfortunate that one journalist in Perth didn’t enjoy the show last night. Fortunately the other 18,272 fans in attendance did.” Scathing reports said that some fans were disappointed by her performance at Perth’s Burswood Dome on Friday, that they left after only three songs.

According to Britney’s tour promoter, Paul Dainty, she has been left traumatised by the media coverage. He told The Australian, “Britney is aware of all this and she’s extremely upset by it.” Eksh! Brit Brit still has concert dates in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide to go – we hope things get better!
