Britney Spears has allegedly told insiders she can’t wait to leave Oz and never come back.
A source close to the singer – who plays Sydney’s Acer Arena tonight (Nov 20), before heading off to Brisbane – told the Chicago Sun Times: “She is very happy to be getting out of that country.”
And it seems Britters might never come back once she’s wrapped the final night of her ‘Circus’ tour.
A source said: “It’s been hard for her. She’s never been subjected to this level of criticism before. She hadn’t had an easy year of it before all this.”
The singer has been enjoying the sights of Sydney, nevertheless, and yesterday (Nov 19) took a trip around the Harbour in a private boat. One mole told us: “She’s licking her wounds at the moment after all the negative press. She just wants to keep her head down and be gentle on herself. ”
Meanwhile, Brit’s fellow Yank Michael Buble, who’s also in Oz, has jumped to her defence saying the criticism is “nasty” and telling Aussie media to give the poor girl a break.
Michael told Melbourne’s Herald Sun: “You’d think she killed someone. Okay, she lip-synchs her show. People know that, they make the decision if they want to go and see her do that.
“Does she deserve the way she’s been completely bashed by the media here? No.”
We agree, Buble.
Oh Britterz, we understand why you might feel like giving the country and everyone in it the two-fingered salute, but millions of folk down here love you, sweetie. Honest.
We’d hate to think we’d never see you again. Or that a couple of viper-tongued journos had won…
