Britney gets permission to extend ‘Circus’ to Europe

Washington, May 01: Britney Spears has been granted permission to extend her Circus tour to Europe, it has emerged.

The ‘Hit Me Baby One More Time’ hitmaker, who is under the conservatorship of her father Jamie, went to the LA court to seek permission to take her shows beyond North America, Canada and Britain, earlier this month, reports Contactmusic. Britney had made it clear that she is keen to perform in Europe. It was feared the judge overseeing the case would deny the star the right to tour mainland Europe, amid worries over the sinking value of the dollar and the weak US economy. However, court officials have ruled in Spears` favour - granting her permission to extend her shows through the summer (09). Therefore, the comeback queen will be performing in European cities including Paris, Moscow and Berlin. ANI
