Britney Spears = Swan Lake?
While I would hesitate to ever have called Britney Spears an artist, and while her career as a musician has taken a back seat to her career as a "pop wreck," she appears to be continuing to contribute to the artistic community by inspiring...a modern dance tribute?
Apparently the has created a show that runs the gammut of Britney's crazy meltdown, from the head-shaving incident right on to her recent committment by family members.
"Choreographer Hubert Essakow said that like many people, he became interested with the singer’s problems about a year ago and thought it would provide good material for a show. “I thought this was a really modern day tragedy, this reversal of fortune. I saw somebody who had such great hope and was adored by millions of people then goes down the wrong route,” he told BBC television Thursday. “I thought it would make an interesting story and try to translate this into dance.”
Heard about it from Gossip Boulevard.
Ok, so I'm ashamed to admit I'm slightly disappointed that this is happening on Friday (tomorrow, I think) at London's South Bank. I love the South Bank and it would have been funny to run into this while I'll be back over the summer.
