True, even Kylie can't manage it most of the time, and she's had more practice! But people who actually pay to go to such shows know what to expect these days, so singling Britney out when she's just one of the thousands who do it, smacks of sour grapes by those who don't get paid the amount she does. That's showbiz after all, the most talented act is not always the highest paid. The person who draws the biggest crowds, for *whatever* reason, will end up getting the most money. But if many people really want to pay their money to see a rather ordinary dancer mime to rather ordinary songs, surely that is their right?

Sure, Miming is pretty rampant but paying 200 to 1000 bucks to watch a mime act. I don't think so.
Maybe they should have Advertised, NOT Live on Stage.
If it was Promoted as a Mime Act, How much would you Pay?, I don't think it would be anywhere near 200 bucks.

Marcel Marceau used to command those kinds of ticket prices (after you adjust for inflation).

Me either, that's why I didn't. I don't care that others did though. Their money, their choice.
> Maybe they should have Advertised, NOT Live on Stage.
She *was* on stage, and she's not dead, so that *would* have been a lie!
> If it was Promoted as a Mime Act, How much would you Pay?, I don't think > it would be anywhere near 200 bucks.
I wouldn't pay 50 bucks even IF she *did* sing, but others are free to spend their money as they see fit. It's silly to claim they didn't know what to expect.

Yeah...No
If your a Fan, you would not accept anything bad that people had to say. Your just bagging 'cause your not a fan......
There must a point when even fans would say, No. If she Decided to play a Hologram of herself, would that be accepted What about Dame Edna in a Britney Costume, would that be accepted
Thing is, she is paid to do Job for a COUPLE OF HOURS and the total money collected would be somewhere around 1/2 Million Bucks. Is it too hard for someone to do their job for a couple of Hours work. I'm sure she would rather sit backstage counting the money and drinking "Pepsi" while a Clone was dancing on stage.

I'm guessing that "your" a fan - based on your grasp of basic english grammar.

Of course not, well not by the same people for the same money anyway. Tribute acts do draw some sort of audience though.
> Thing is, she is paid to do Job for a COUPLE OF HOURS and the total > money collected would be somewhere around 1/2 Million Bucks. > Is it too hard for someone to do their job for a couple of Hours work.
Depends on what you call her "job". I strongly suggest she would not have lasted this long if she actually sang at her concerts.
> I'm sure she would rather sit backstage counting the money and drinking > "Pepsi" while a Clone was dancing on stage.
And I'm sure she would too, *IF* she could make as much money. The fans do want to see her though, everything else is irrelevant it seems.
I still say all the knockers are just jealous they can't get paid as much for so little talent!
