Retrospective 2009

For the sake of laziness that you write this, I borrowed the retrospective made by our friend X-BRITNEY and also a video. So here we go:

After the turn of the year, no major celebrations in ballads in the past, Spears started 2009 an intense pace of trials - it was time to prepare for their first world tour in five years.

Using Twitter as a communication tool with the fans, the singer kept his fans informed of what was preparing for the show, and then earlier this year became the wife of the most popular microblogging site.

While the focus was on tour, much is speculated about his family. Kevin Federline, her ex-husband met with Britney and her lawyers to decide the future of children with the long journey shows the mother. After a long conversation, they have agreed that Spears took the children with her in every city where he spent with his show.

Before the tour started, was announced the first advertising campaign for Britney with Candie's brand. Clicked by photographer Mark Liddell, the same who performed a test with it to the promotional material for her show, Spears posed with the clothes and showed that he was with the body in shape in the photos with
different bikinis and swimsuits. "My favorite scene was the one that had a huge wall of cotton candy", she said on the campaign.

The Candie's also been a major sponsor of the tour Circus. It was through the company's Web site that fans could watch the first video of the singer on stage, rehearsing for their big show. The compact with the sound of Circus shows excerpts from various performances, and was released two days before the tour officially began, prompting the fans wild!

"Britney is a great professional, she knows when to go deeper and get what they want. We're rehearsing for months for the show, doing this several times every day, since the concept of the tour to the testing of the choreography, to get where we are now. I mean, she is working very hard every day for months on end and everything is back, is the show that everyone would expect and everything is there. When you look you see that is one of the biggest shows she has done, is something legendary. I personally believe is the biggest show she's ever done. This is a Britney Spears remodeled. The show is an extravaganza it Pop, is everything that everyone expects it, and even more", said manager Larry Rudolph in an interview with the announcer Ryan Seacrest.

Back in Louisiana, the state where grew up, Britney gave the start of the tour Circus in the city of New Orleans. The press had different opinions about the show: "Britney Spears got off the roof of the New Orleans Arena and returned to the hearts of his fans, restoring your career with an impressive performance in first-stage" - People, "Sometimes, the very Britney almost becomes small compared to the show. She looks great in their various costumes and can still move well with them all ... Because, well, it kind of gets lost in the grandiose production around. It would be better if there was a little more of Britney Spears "- MTV.
The show featured songs from throughout his career but focused on the last two albums, Blackout and Circus, performing 18 songs. During the show, Spears has incorporated different themes for the performances: it was seen being locked in a cage beams, visible as the ring leader, a pole dancing stripper style, becoming ajudand a number of magic, dancing rhythm of India, commanding as a "true sargentona" among others. The extravagance of the show also highlighted the expensive stage and special effects from start to finish.

Also in March, Spears released her controversial music video for If U Seek Amy, who left the radio stations very annoyed with his chorus - in a bright and cheerful, it spells a word. In the video directed by Jake Nava, Britney makes fun with the press early on, where it appears a false host of Fox talking about his music. The clip can be defined as an incredible uniting all things Brit, with a message that even good girls have a daring side, and that even the most saintly can also be the bitch of it all.

It was also in March that Spears received Platinum Certification from the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of the United States) to have surpassed 1 million copies sold of the album Circus in the United States only. She met with her manager Larry Rudolph and important names of Jive Records, and Barry Weiss, Tom Carrabba, Peter Thea, Teresa peyton-Whites to celebrate the achievement and receive the card.
Throughout the presentations by the United States and Canada with the Circus tour, Britney is embroiled in further controversy. One of her costumes had problems at the bottom and the singer spoke loud and clear that their private parts were exposed. In addition to a strange game on Merry Christmas, she chafed at the Canadian audience and interrupted the show by the strong smell of marijuana coming back to perform after 40 minutes of recess.

After a pause the shows, she began to phase in June's European tour in London, England, crossing the continent by the end of July. It was on this journey shows that she loved the performance of the song Mannequin, choreographed by herself and her dancer Chase Benz.

Directed by Dave Meyers, the video for Radar was released last week of June and was also used as a commercial for Candie's brand - its second campaign with the brand in years. For the video, Britney threw the lively dance steps to explore what the director called "novel of high society and the guys moving it". Inspired partly by the video Take a Bow by Madonna (1994), the video focuses on Britney torn between two suitors: a rich guy and a polo player. "She was a good mentality and open to trying new things. At this point we are both very experienced in our specialty, so it was like two people getting together, trying to make something entirely new. We show the first Britney classudo of experience and focus in class, very European". Meyers said to MTV News.

The following month, another video was released on the site of Britney, but it was not a new single. The Jive Records held a great contest called Britney Fan Fiction, open to fans around the world, where everyone had to pick a song from the singer and develop a story about it. The lowest score was sent by a fan of Argentina based on the song Kill The Lights, and the prize went to see his own story into a clip on design.

When closed the presentations with the Circus tour in Europe, Spears returned to the United States and was honored at the awards Teen Choice Awards with the Ultimate Choice award. She attended the event and took his surfboard from the hands of Miley Cyrus, thanking fans for all their support throughout the decade.

Starting the third stage of the Circus tour in North America, Britney performed the first show in Canada. It was during this phase that she included in the repertoire of the show's "You Oughta Know, Alanis Morissette's, and called everyone's attention by singing the track live.
In September, Spears starred in a commercial promoting the Video Music Awards with the host of the ceremony, Russell Brand. In the campaign, both are in different places - she in a bikini in front of a swimming pool and the room it - but when he realized that Britney can read your thoughts and vice versa, Russell tries to seduce the singer by telepathy. "Britney, this is the voice of your mind ... go to the hotel room of Russell. If delivered to him, Britney. Sleep with Russell!" Said the boy in the commercial.

On the day of the ceremony, Britney could not attend due to the concerts of his tour, but recorded a video of thanksgiving for the award for Best Pop Video received by Womanizer.

The Guinness Book of Records, which brings the most comprehensive collection of the greatest and most amazing feats achieved by man, added another record to Britney's edition of 2010. In December 2008, Circus topped the album charts in the United States, making Britney the youngest female artist in history to have five of their albums top the charts. Prior to 20 years in 2001, Spears has sold a total of 37 million copies worldwide, becoming a teenager biggest selling in history. Another record has been recorded by the Guinness Personality of the most popular of the Internet in 2009, as well as many others.

At the end of September, Britney rocked again the radio stations to launch the music 3. Produced by Max Martin, the song talks about the menage a trois (a threesome) and was the flagship of the collection The Singles Collection, becoming a worldwide hit. A few weeks later, she experimented with the dual Rich & Tone choreography for the video and filed for recording with director Diane Martel. The result could be seen at the end of October with the launch of the video clip on the site of the singer.

In November, Spears gave the start for the fourth and final day of Madonna's Circus in Australia. "I've wanted to go to Australia for some time and now finally happened. My Circus tour is the best show I've ever created and I can not wait to introduce me to my Australian fans", said Britney.

It started well, the tickets sold out within minutes and due to huge demand across Australia, extra shows were added in all cities. But when Britney performed for the first time in Perth, which drew the attention of all was the same playback, a feature that is used by her since 1999 in most of their presentations. Besides the fans leaving the show complaining about the show and the fact that Britney did not talk to the audience, the singer also caused controversy with the government. Virginia Judge, Minister of Commerce of the State of New South Wales, said he was seeking measures to ensure that the fans were not fooled. "It is a prerogative of Britney Spears use playback and it's my job to make sure that consumers know what they are buying. Let us be clear - live means live. The idea of government is that the materials to promote shows and tickets indicate that parts of the presentation are recorded", said the minister.

The controversy caught the attention of Britney, who said an official statement: "I heard that there is much controversy in the media about my show. Some journalists said they loved the show, and some do not. I came to Australia for my fans!"

Amid the confusion of playback, was launched on November 10 the compilation The Singles Collection, a form that Jive Records found to commemorate the unparalleled career of 10 years of Britney. With different versions and only one previously unreleased song, 3, the collection attracted the attention of fans for his version Box, which brought together 29 singles from Britney with its original cover, accompanied by a b-sise or remix, plus a DVD and a book with video clips of the muse.

With only four shows in Sydney, Britney became the biggest selling artist tickets during the passage of an arena tour in Acer. We sold 66,247 tickets in their presentations with the tour, from the front of the British band Coldplay, which in March 2009 was in first place with 59,391 entrants. Before leaving, she earned a plaque of appreciation to the record and posed for a photo alongside representatives of the arena.
On November 29, Britney ended the Circus tour after 97 concerts performed during the year. Despite controvésia involving the spectacle, the tour was one of the most successful year and contributed to Britney to become the only artist of his generation to be among the 25 artists who raised with more shows in the last decade.

After celebrating her 28th birthday with friends, a new edition of Elle magazine was released in December - Britney graced the cover with her sons, Sean and Jayden, clicked on a photo shoot by Carter Smith. Despite its lack of an interview with the singer, the magazine showed several images taken in Calabasas mansion of Spears, where she wore expensive clothes and posed inside a cage.

The year 2009 ends with speculation about his next musical project. Several producers (Danja, Darkchild, Sean Garrett) are working on new songs for Britney and she will start recording in January. The release date of the CD is not yet defined, but it is expected that he will be ready in May and June 2010.

HAPPY 2010! Britney and that you have a great year.
