Screw YOU, Britney one more time!

Tuesday morning. 5:45am. My alarm goes off and I rush to get ready and head down to Times Square. Why? Because “It’s Britney, Bitch.” Britney’s birthday performance on Good Morning America in Times Square!

Carmen and Elizabeth are meeting me in front of Hard Rock Café on 44th street. I texted Carmen as I was coming out of the subway, “Is it packed? Is there a huge crowd?” “No one’s here!” she says.

Oh crap.

What’s going on? We wandered around for 10 minutes looking down side streets and trying to figure out where Britney’s stage is set up. We know it’s not at Bryant Park, because the ice rink is set up. We check our iPhones and google it, and everything says “Britney Spears Times Square.” What’s going on????

So then we find a limo driver outside of the ABC studios who tells us that it’s been moved to Lincoln Center on 62nd and 9th. WHAT?! We figure, hey, there’s gonna be a lot of people out there, but there’s lots of room at Lincoln center and we may as well head up there to see if we can still get a spot where we can see the stage.

We take the subway up to Lincoln Center (which, by the way is only 6 blocks from my apartment, so I came all the way downtown just to go back UP again!) We come out of the subway….AGAIN. NO ONE THERE!

We walk around for a while, looking for Escalades with tinted windows, crew trucks, police, whatever and we finally spot them- outside the Big Apple Circus lot on 64th and Broadway. There’s a huge line and even though I tried to talk our way in with some of the security guys, they make us walk to the end of the block and get in line.

We stand in line, and finally it starts moving. Some security people say something about tickets (What? Tickets? We don’t have tickets! Where were we supposed to get tickets?!) I stay calm and try to convince Elizabeth and Carmen to just stay in the center of the crowd and keep moving, even though we don’t have tickets. Hey, maybe we can sneak in anyway!

The line moves for a while and then all of a sudden…it just separates. Yeah, we weren’t in line for ANYTHING, once we got to the front of the line, security was just making people walk away! It was so bizarre and frustrating! Here were are, out in the cold at 7am trying to see a live performance and turns out that it was never even open to the public!

To get tickets, you had to be in Britney’s fan club, or go into a draw from her website. I think some radio stations had them as giveaways, and probably all the staff of ABC and friends, family, you know the drill. We were SCREWED. SCREWED!!!!!!!

So yeah, so much for Britney’s stupid performance. Oh yeah, and double whammy- she announced her “world” tour (gimme a break- WORLD tour just because you play 2 shows in London and a couple in Canada?!) and she’s NOT even coming to New York!!! What the??? Yeah, the nearest she’s playing is NEWARK, New-FREAKIN-Jersey!!

Madonna would NEVER have betrayed me like this!
