Britney Spears was performing at the House of Blues in Florida on Saturday night (19.05.07) when technical glitches saw her backing CD skip repeatedly, exposing her miming.
A source is quoted by gossip website TMZ.com: "It was an ugly scene. The crowd started jeering and heckling her. Britney looked absolutely devastated."
"When the CD started skipping during the song ‘Do Somethin'’, Britney hid her face and turned her back. Then, when it resolved itself, she turned around with this look on her face like she was going to puke."
Hundreds of fans had queued for hours and spent as much as $500 a ticket to see the show. The appearance was part of a series of 15-minute concerts which have seen Britney perform live for the first time in three years under the pseudonym M+Ms.
After the initial hitch, Britney suffered further technical problems, which left her "rolling around on the floor with her headset broken".

"They have broken up," says the source. "But they have broken up and gotten back together at least ten times before."
According to the source, the pair are in constant contact – even as Simpson promotes her film Major Movie Star at the Cannes Film Festival in France. "They talk to each other at least six times a day. I don't know if this breakup is permanent, but for right now they are broken up."
In fact, the pair have "been emailing and talking to each other," since Simpson went to Cannes, says a Simpson friend. "I'm sure they'll get back together."

Eva Longoria's Wedding Plans Are Hell For Organizers
Eva Longoria, who is set to marry basketball star Tony Parker on July 7, keeps changing her mind about details for her big day, infuriating organizers.
A source said: "The wedding is still very much on, but Eva is creating a lot of work for everyone. She changed the flowers three times and her dress has been altered a couple of times. Then there’s the guest list, which is constantly under revision. I think everyone involved will be glad when Eva finally ties the knot."
Earlier this month, the 32-year-old star flew to Paris to choose a church for the ceremony.
Eva visited the clerical staff at St. Germain L’Auxerrois - which is known as the ‘Parish of Kings’ because of its historic affiliation and its position next to the Louvre Museum.

Daddy Simpson Approves of Jessica's Lover John Mayer
Jessica Simpson has been dating John Mayer since last August and has won her father Joe’s approval with her latest relationship.
Joe told People magazine: "If Jessica is in love, I love the things she is in love with. I want her to be happy. I’m always a fan of John. I love him - he’s got great music." Jessica’s father hasn’t always approved of her previous lovers. He warned his daughter marrying Nick Lachey could ruin her career.
Jessica, whose divorce from former 98 Degrees singer Nick was finalised last June, said: "Everybody thought, including my father, that my marriage to Nick would kill my career."
Joe is convinced Jessica will be happier with John because they have a different fan base and are equally famous.
He explained: "I think the beautiful thing is that he and Jessica don’t do the same thing. He’s a legend already. There is no competition. He’s a guitarist - that’s his thing. Jessica is a singer. She doesn’t play guitar, so there’s no competition." Jessica joined John on tour in Australia last month, and is currently in France attending the Cannes Film Festival.

Lindsay, who completed a month-long stay in rehab to battle her drink demons earlier this year (07), is frequently criticized for her wild lifestyle - particularly after photographs showing the star allegedly snorting cocaine in a hotel toilet emerged last month (Apr07).
But her mother Dina is adamant the 20-year-old's reputation is over-exaggerated by the media, and believes Lindsay is just enjoying the perks of the entertainment industry.
She says, "This (premieres and parties) is the fun part of the business."
"Regardless, of course, as a parent, you set boundaries and scold them. But there are these dark stories - she is so misunderstood. All she wants to do is act and have a somewhat normal life. When you're 20, it's normal to want to go to The Ivy, to go to the hot stores, She can't live in a bubble."

Meg told Redbook magazine: "When I first became famous, it was kind of traumatizing, actually. You just constantly feel like you’re getting hit."
