    Meet The Tour Team

    Posted under Blog, Dance, Music on January 12, 2009

    You've heard stories on the Internet  about the talent set to work on Britney's tour - now, we at Britney Spears.com are ready to officially announce the amazing team who have joined the 'Circus!'

    Without further ado we give you Britney's 'Circus' tour team:

    Tour Director: Jamie King
    jamie-king.jpgJamie has worked with Britney in the past, as director and co-choreographer for her 'Oops, I Did It Again' tour back in 2000 and also on the 'Stronger' music video. Jamie was also director and choreographer of Brit's American Music Awards performance in 2001 and the infamous Britney/Madonna/Christina 'The Kiss' performance at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. Considering Jamie also directed five of Madonna's tours, including last year's 'Sticky And Sweet Tour,' I think it's safe to say that this tour is going to be hot! Check out the video below to see Jamie's previous tours resume and visit his website for more info.



    Musical Director: Simon Ellis

    Simon Ellis is the musical director of Britney's upcoming tour. A Brit himself, Simon has worked with legendary British artists including The Spice Girls, S Club 7, Steps, Hearsay and East 17. Most recently, Simon directed the Spice Girls' 2008 reunion tour, which Simon Fuller, creator of American Idol and Pop Idol, described as "genius."

    JaQuel Knight has joined the tour team as contributing choreographer! Why am I so excited, you ask? Because JaQuel choregraphed Beyonce's 'Single Ladies' music video! Talk about genius moves.

    Contributing Choreographer: Tony Testa

    Tony Testa is also joining the tour as contributing choreographer. Tony Testa worked with Britney on her recent 'Circus' promo tour in Japan, so we've already gotten a taste of what he can do. Tony has also worked with artists such as  Beyonce, Janet Jackson, and Danity Kane.

    Check out the video to see more of Tony:



    Dreya Weber: Aerial Choreographer

    l_69669eb08e132b725f5239b03761198f.jpgDreya Weber is an aerial artist and choreographer extraordinaire. She choreographed an aerial swing trio for Madonna's Re-invention tour and worked with Pink and Cher to design and choreograph their aerial segments.

    Good luck to everyone on Britney's tour team. We can't wait to see what amazing things you have in store for us!

      THANK YOU THANK YOU for sharing this with us. I hate that people are trying to create negativity out of SUCH an incredible experience. Keep pushing forward and showing them why you are an incredible performer and artist Britney.

      I am sooo not young enough to love Britney the way that I do but I just love that she keeps breaking all the rules and coming out on top!

      Do you gurl! Do you... only you need to be happy with you.

      Wow, I've been in Shakira's tours and I've watched many DVD Tours directed for Mr. King, and I know Britney's upcoming tour's gonna be the bomb of the new year, because he has a lot of songs and new material to make of this tour, the best on Earth ever seen. I know we're gonna be outer space soon in the "circus" tour. Britney, you know how much we love you in Colombia and many people is waiting for you babe, so come as soon as you can. I love you....

      Well, sounds awsome, (I already knew anyway :) ) I like JAmie King a lot (Madonna's shows are amazing and the Opps Tour was cool as well), about the other choreographers I haven't seen much, but they'll do a great job with Britney.
      would love to know about the dancers and really hope TUCKER (yes, again!) is on the tour!! I just LOVE him & he was amazing on the Circus Vid.
      Just wish Britney THE BEST, & enjoy

      Britney i m so excited y'll be on tour i'm a little scared i have to admit because of your dad... i think is a really good person but why in your work he has always to control everything..your work your music and dance are part of you and what you are right now...he should notice that your work is your part of competence you have to be able to express the most of you without all the restrictions of your dad he is making big mistakes....anyway i love u brit i hope you'llbe successful and that you want it all!!! xxxx also to your babies

      Why isn't Wade Robson the director anymore when he said he was going to be? And also his wife, who was supposed to be involved? Could we find out what happened?
