Britney Spears' new live show -- god awful

Replaying tonight at midnight EST on Showtime West for the morbidly curious.

If there's one thing worse than a lipsynched pop concert...it's a lipsynched pop concert with a theme -- namely, "The Onyx Hotel".

:scared:

Next time, just get out there and give them the tits and ass they paid for, Brit.

...It's not even so bad it's good. It's so bad it's bad.

It's so bad that B.S., who's 22, signed up to sing this masturbation song on tour, and she pretends to masturbate for something like three minutes, and yet she has done such a poor job of executing a catchy chorus/orgasm that she hasn't generated any marketable controversy.

You'd think there would be some controversial whining at least from Clear Channel, the friend-of-Bush entertainment company that is now endorsing governmental bans on forms of entertainment that are not Puritanical.

But, uh-oh, Clear Channel is B.S.'s tour promoter, so don't expect it to shut down her money-making tactics. Clear Channel is an example of what Chris Rock calls "the hypocrisy of democracy."...

but GAWD awful. The only halfway decent one of these pop tarts these days is Beyonce.
