You’ve all seen those flower boob pics of Britney, which were supposedly taken at a friend’s house about a month ago. What a coincidence that they came out the day after her first lipsynched “comeback” concert, which lasted no more than 16 minutes.

This is the woman who staged four separate completely unsubtle crotch reveals back in the fall when she was hanging out with Paris Hilton. She used up that strategy quickly and seems to have moved on to releasing supposedly personal photos.

Britney’s second concert was even shorter than the first. Her show at the Anaheim House of Blues last night lasted all of 12 minutes. Fans had to wait up to two hours to get inside, and all cell phones were confiscated. She was said to have chewed gum throughout the show, completely ruining the illusion that she was singing.

It’s a good thing we have those flower boob pics to remind us how relevant she remains.

MSBNC has a good editorial about Britney’s comeback after a three year hiatus. They say it’s all about getting her back in the spotlight, and shows a complete lack of respect for her fans and for the music:

I don’t want to call anyone who spent that kind of money so that Britney could keep hundreds waiting for three hours and then play for about 15 minutes a complete simpleton. That would be unfair to complete simpletons.

It’s akin to going to a fine restaurant, having to wait two hours beyond your reservation time as others get seated before you, getting a table by the kitchen, having a waiter who ignores you and then screws up your order, having the bus boy spill somebody’s half-full Mojito in your lap, noticing that the valet parking attendant seems to have put an extra 100 miles on your odometer, then realizing the next day that somebody used your credit card to buy furniture — and then saying, “What a great place!”…

Britney’s show at the House of Blues in San Diego wasn’t a first step on her climb back to respectability in the ranks of pop stars. It was a sad and desperate ploy for attention. When a singer lip-syncs through 15 minutes of music after making her fans wait three hours, the message is, “I don’t give a damn about you or the music. This is about me. Worship me again.”

Even sadder, many nincompoops complied.

Here’s video of Britney giving a lap dance on the night of her first show in San Diego.

There was a story that Britney plucked her new boyfriend, Howie Day, out of the crowd for the lapdance, but it doesn’t really look like him to me.
