Britney Spears connection to ‘American Idol’
Of course there would be a Britney Spears connection to ‘American Idol’…
One of the contestants auditioning in Miami turned out to be Robbie Carrico, 26, member of the pop band called Boyz-N-Girlz United. The band apparantley opened for spears a few years ago when she was on a European tour.
MTV News is linking (romantically) the Pop-diva/reality TV star with the Melbourne, Florida native and has a video on their site show the two - almost in the same room at the same time. “Carrico’s group, Boyz-N-Girlz United, opened for Spears on the …Baby One More Time tour in the summer of ‘99. Their brief relationship became public when they attended the “Drive Me Crazy” premiere together that September.”
The singer has another connection to the music world, MTV is also reporting Carrico is related ” to country legend Patsy Cline, his “maternal cousin.”

Carrico, whose audition appeared on Wednesday’s (Jan. 29) episode appears to the lead vocal in a band called the Missing Picket http://www.missingpicket.com. this is the guy who had the groupies waiting out side.
If he’s going to win American Idol, I thinking he’s going to need a little bit of a makeover. But this season’s Idol has quite a few “experienced” contestants - so who knows what will happen!
Thoughts on American Idol so far… the Britney Connection… ???
TweetBritney Spears ballet ‘Meltdown’ is set to open
I’ll bet Gilbert and Sullivan only wished they had a Britney Spears of their time to write an opera around.
But the Rambert Dance Company, fascinated with the Britney Circus, is set to open a ballet entitled, ‘Meltdown,’ Today (Feb. 1) in London. The Music for the performance was written by the same musician who brought London, ‘Jerry Springer, the Opera.” The choreographer for the show called the Britney story a modern day tragedy, a reversal of fortune - she had so much hope and now. Link to the BBC video
One part of her live that seems to be missing from this opera - her stint as a reality TV star, oh well. But how will it end… that is always the question of any good opera/ballet/real life tragedy isn’t it?
