Britney Spears Walks Off Stage During Concert: No Weed Please!
Oh what a diva she is! Britney Spears was playing a show in Vancouver on her “Circus” tour when she stopped three songs in and walked off stage due to the heavy pot smoke drifting in from the crowd. The concert came to a standstill, including lights off, for about 20 minutes until an announcement was made about the smoke being unsafe for Britney and her crew.
Via People:
“The building is awfully smoky. It is uncomfortable for everyone on stage, including Ms. Spears. Please extinguish all cigarettes – this is a non-smoking building, and the show will resume when the smoke on the stage is cleared.”
About 40 minutes after the announcement, Spears returned to the stage and continued on with the concert, only to leave the set for a short time a few minutes later. The interruption was met by “boos” from the crowd and left the fans really upset. After the concert, an apologetic statement was posted on Spears official website.
Per BritneySpears.com:
“We want to apologize to all the fans who attended our Vancouver show tonight for the brief pause in Britney’s set. Crew members above the stage became ill due to a ventilation issue.”
After the final encore, as Spears ran off the stage she told the audience, “Thanks Vancouver. You were wonderful. Drive safe. Don’t smoke weed!” Haha! Seems like a little bit of the old Crazy-Britney is shining through!
