Thrilling fans in Las Vegas late Friday night, Britney Spears and her dancers performed three 'Femme Fatale' songs for an MTV special promoting the album, which officially drops Tuesday.
It was a mini-concert, to be sure, but was her first live show since the 'Circus' tour in 2009.
Spears, 29, wore form-fitting black leather, according to Us, and wowed the crowd at the Palms Casino's Rain nightclub, singing 'Hold it Against Me,' 'Till the World Ends,' and
Big Fat Bass.'
According to PEOPLE.com, her set lasted approximately 45 minutes, with 'Jersey Shore' star Pauly D (resident DJ at the Palms) helping to keep the crowd of more than a thousand fans on their feet during Spears' short breaks for costume changes.
All week, the surprise performance had been kept under wraps, but when news leaked Friday that she'd be taking the stage, Spears decided to go ahead and confirm it on Twitter:
"Looks like my little secret isn't a secret anymore...Who's coming to watch me take the stage?" she tweeted, adding, "You're all invited. Be there or be square b--ch!"

She even posted a coy Twitpic of the Palms Casino Resort marquee that advertised "DJ Pauly D & Special Guest." Spears tweeted the caption, "I wonder who the special guest is?"
While she performed Friday for the Vegas crowd, her father, Jamie Spears, and her boyfriend, Jason Trawick, reportedly watched from a VIP area as the performance ended with fireworks.

Has anyone ever been able to carry on an intelligent conversation with a Britney fan? Yeah, me neither.

Hiring a portly girl as a back-up dancer doesn't hid the fact the Britney's been packing on the pounds.
aliceoc80 Is spreading a VIRUS thru the site she is pimping. BEWARE
EEEEWWW GROSS ! HER LEGS ARE DISGUSTING. SHE NEEDS TO COVER THEM UP. USING A FAT BACKGROUND DANCER IS ON OLD TRICK USED BY FAT WOMEN LIKE JANET JACKSON, RHIANNA AND BEYONCE, IT DOESNT WORK. YOU CAN'T HIDE THUNDER THIGHS AND BUBBLE BUTTS.
She looks like a prostitute.

If SHE looks like a hooker, then business must be bad, real bad.
Ted, it's just a costume for her show. Relax and let her do what she does best, i.e. entertain.
SO DOES YOUR MAMA
My mom is dead, but nice try.
I don't think she looks that good. She'd have a hard time hustlin' a buck in the trade.
Yeah. A big fat prostitute...
I really hope that's just a bad picture, because that outfit is doing nothing for her.
Reply
No it's not a bad picture it's called ageing. When your theighs start to rub together it's time to cover up that part of your body.
Thunder Thighs...ouch.
one thing i'd like to say is she really looked bad, not bad bad just bad. another thing about britney is that she only sing a song once at recording and never sings it again live at concerts.

All Britney's teen fans have grown up now, so isn't her core audience primarily gays who like glitzy, trashy pop music, like this show in Vegas? Although, I'll give credit for Britney not looking like a Lindsay (her new Cher-like one-word name) train wreck lately.

Yeah, thats right, fembot. All gays have bad taste. They all the same. Good stereotyping honey!
What can you say? she looks like a prostitute.

You can always count on her to do something screwy. She did make somewhat of an improvement from barfing in toilets but her next mistakes made up for it.

She got fat.
