Exclusive: Britney Spears on Her New Show, New Music... and Toe Sucking?!
Only “Extra's" Mario Lopez was with Britney Spears this weekend before she kicked off the revamped edition of her Las Vegas "Piece of Me" residency at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, and Britney had quite the challenge for him: Britney dared Mario do to a bungee jump that she performs in the show during "Toxic" — in full costume!
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Of the revamped show, Britney shared. "I have a new album coming out soon, so it's just like a taste of what's to come. The new stuff isn't actually in it yet, but there's a lot of surprises. There's a lot of new costume changes. There's a lot of new surprise songs in there from artists I really respect. There's a lot of prop changes, and there's more to come this year that's gonna be changed."
The 34-year-old made headlines in August 2015 when she was caught on camera telling her "Piece of Me" audience "Frankly, men can suck my f**king toe." The video went viral, and when asked what prompted her to say it, Britney laughed, "Men issues... I'm behind that now."
"Piece of Me" has been attended by big stars, including Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, and Selena Gomez. When asked which celebs were there to see her, Britney responded, "I'd rather not know because it makes me nervous. I really look up to those people."
Another celebrity fan of Britney's is Adele who recently told NPR, "Britney is the queen." When told this, Britney replied, "I love her. She's great. She's the f**king queen!"
Spears has been posting some seriously flexible photos doing yoga on Instagram, and her secret to her fit body is… taking classes with everyday people! "I like to go to class, I like to compete with people. I get on the treadmill and I try to run as fast as they do. So I like to be with a bunch of people, and I go to classes."
Her sons, Sean Preston, 10, and Jayden James, 9, are proving they're just like any other kids — they're obsessed with "Star Wars." Britney said, "They're at the 'Star Wars' movie right now. This is the second time they've seen it. They just keep going back and they love it. I'm not really interested in that, but that's their thing."
Check out the backstage tour of Britney's show, and watch Mario do the bungee jump stunt!
