1iota Leaves Britney Fans Behind

Some Britney fans today were disappointed because they didn't make it to the screening.

These are fans who won tickets through 1iota, but were eventually turned away.  

Because of some obvious misunderstanding, 1iota gave the impression there was space for more fans, even encouraging them to bring extra friends.

Team Britney's heart goes out to these true Britney fans and we have offered the site as a place to vent. It was great meeting you all today and you rock!!!

We noticed how understanding you all were and appreciate that you knew that this wasn't Britney's fault.

Jennifer, Team Britney

    OMG that's terrible!!! I'm so sorry 1iota put you through that! I had a bad experience with them the other night. I was at the New Years Eve with Carson Daly taping to see Katy Perry and one of the 1iota guys was EXTREMELY RUDE to me! I reported him so hopefully they start to reevaluate the trash they hire! You guys should write to them and complain!

    1iota sucks! the same thing happened to me a few years ago and since then i've been wary of going to any of their events for fear of wasting hours in line only to be turned away. i know they often confirm more tickets than they really have space for b/c not everyone shows up, but they should really do it on a first come first serve basis rather than discriminating the way they do.

    I don't understand why they do that. Maybe people in the back line have paid for 1IOTA? I'm not sure this connect to the news that Britney wasn't look happy at the screening.

    Anyway, always love you Britney.

    When 1iota CONFIRMED me and a guest I booked my travel, arranged a hotel, and got to the check-in at 9am. At 1pm my friend and i were 50 people from the start of the line. When the last bus left, we were left behind. I agree with "Brad" who commented earlier. Brit's most sincere fans got left behind...and a lot of us spent the money we didn't have to be here to be passed up by people that the "1iota" folks thought should get on the bus. I hope Jamie and those below him know how much Brit's fans were hurt. I want to believe they will make it up. SOMEHOW.

    That was very rude of them! I got in, but seriously there were like two guys who chose "pretty ladies" and brought them infront of the line. it was not fair!
    the 1iota people said that the only reason why they invited so much, is because everytime they do half of the people didn't show up. and sadly today wasn't that case. I was pissed off, at the two men who chose hot chicks over britneys biggest fans. it was not fair! i know one of them is named Darnell, they always do that! also in fn mtv. seriously they suck! even one of the guys that works with them told them off.

    i love you britney!!! today was the best day ever!

    Why did Larry pull Britney out of the screening so abruptly today?

    Is she okay?

    Some of her fans are thinking she doesn't want to be performing or putting out a record.

    I don't believe that, but I can imagine that being in a vulnerable situation like putting out a record and doing interviews is nerve wrecking.

    I don't think it's Brit's fault, either. But Brit's management should really, really do something about this. Possibly some kind of formal denouncement.

    1iota took literally 100 people from the back of the line and escorted them past britney's biggest fans who got their early to make sure they would get to go. It is appalling and I think Britney should get the list of CONFIRMED guests from 1iota and do SOMETHING for us all. COME ON! It's not fair, and it is a shame on MTV and sadly on Britney by no fault of her own. But she can make her biggest and most disappointed fans feel a little less let down.

    I was at that screening at Im a 24 year old good looking girl who was passed over...maybe I'm just too old but those girls who got up to the front we not all hot a lot of them were hot messes and thats just being honest. That being said what 1iota did is inexcusable...I will be writing letters to both MTV and 1iota. What we need to do as fans is not support them. Of course we'll watch for the record but I'm going to severely cut the time that I watch MTV and I will never attend another 1iota event. I left work early for the screening...ridiculous. Thanks to team britney for caring about us!

    This is just ridiculous!!!!

    Those fans DESERVE a spot in there. You DO NOT distribute tickets for people who are just going to be turned away...
    How do you think it would feel to have gotten your hands on a ticker, driven, or flown a LONG distance, then told you wated your time?

    Lets all send a complaint to 1iota, and give these fans the justice they deserve.

    I LOVE YOU BRITNEY!!

    Don't use 1iota anymore! It's so pathetic that they only pick the hot girls to go first, if it wasn't for that to happen all of us could have made it to the screening. 1iota is really Unethical.
