BRITNEY Spears was holed up in a Perth hotel yesterday as the row over her lip-synching concerts threatened to derail her Australian tour, The Sunday Telegraph reports.
Fans walked out after only three songs at Perth's Burswood Dome on Friday, upset by her lacklustre performance.

This kid should take the money she has, and make something of herself. I know she has a long ways to go, but dumping the pop scene would be a good start.
200 bucks to hear her sing in concert?LMAO.
OMG! i like, totally, like, uhm, want, like, my, uhm, like, you know, money, you know, back returned, to, like, uhm me, you know, so, like, i can, uhm, like, go shopping for stuff...
It's hardly news that Britney lip sync's in concert. There was a video on YouTube a long time ago of the audio feed from her microphone while she was lip syncing. It was all grunts and croaks and sounded horrid. (VIDEO).
And here is another one where a guy jumps on stage and she screams but it doesn't come through her mic because she was lip syncing. (VIDEO)
I'll never understand why anyone would pay $500 to hear a washed up kiddie pop singer.
Anybody, with bills to pay, that blows half a week’s pay on Britney Spears tix, gets what they deserve.
Only a damned fool would spend that kind of money to see Britney in the first place.
That was ashley simpson...jessica simpson’s sister.
“That wasn’t her sister.”
You’re right, I had her confused with Jessica Simpson, whose sister Ashlee was caught lip synching.

Nobody would want to hear Ashlee Simpson sing live (Orange Bowl fiasco - especially the last minute of the clip) -see above link

I need photos to determine innocence or guilt.
Regarding the idiotic dance the "extras" were doing on the field around her: I realize they bring in High School dance groups as some big honor for bowl games. A few years ago my college team was playing in the Gator Bowl. We were staying in a hotel near the stadium and near The Landing, which is a great venue for a bowl game with an open area for a band and lots of bars. For several days we watched these teen age girls running loose at The Landing with drunken college kids, and even drunker (yeah really) bums from Jacksonville hanging around. There is no way their parents had any idea they were going to be running loose like that.
Most of what gets played on television is fake. Lip syncing and the use of pre-recorded backing music is almost universal. You can't get amps to break up properly and give a good clean distortion unless you drive them hard, and you can't do that in a television studio. Besides, a television appearance can make a band so why take the chance that something might go wrong?
Here is a television performance of Private Idaho by the B52's. The record skips at 2:34 and some of the band members take a minute to figure out what to do. (VIDEO)
I think it was the Hollywood culture of hedonism. A culture of perfection would probably be a good thing if Hollywood had one.
I had never heard of her but that video was funny.
I thought maybe the crowd was upset because she flashed her pooter again.
Poor Brit Brit. She’s looking rough.
