Alternate title: It’s Britney, bitch.

Last night marked the official kick-off of Britney Spears’ Circus tour and reports are that the old Brit’s back. Her own website liveblogged the event, including many Twitter reports from fans who were attending the show.

Britney’s performance almost completely sold out the 19,000 seat arena, included all the promised magic acts and more, including starting the show off by lowering a dancing Britney in a cage.

The performance involved a 16-song set, including “Circus”, “A Piece of Me”, “Radar”, “Slave 4 U”, “Toxic”, “Baby One More Time”, and of course her comeback single hit, “Womanizer”.

A review over on People.com said that Britney still has a bit further to go before she can officially claim a comeback - the article mentioned that there was a strong lack of engagement throughout the performance, and that Britney didn’t even address the crowd until the very end of the show. However, from the accolades that poured out on Twitter all evening, I think that the majority of the fans were more than just a little satisfied.

Let me know if you were at the New Orleans show!

With Britney Spears getting ready to kick off her big Circus tour, she has arrived in New Orleans with her entourage - and her boys!

ass="picappstyle">

Britney arrived with Sean, Jayden, her father Jamie, and some bodyguards and personnel by tour bus, having driven from Kentwood to New Orleans. Her first performance is in the “Big Easy” tomorrow!

There’s still a lot of debate out there as to whether Britney is really ready for a huge tour but you know, all I keep hearing is that she’s been working extremely hard, taking rehearsals very seriously, and putting everything she’s got into the routines. I think that as long as people are taking care of her and making sure she gets some rest in between shows, Britney will be just fine.

Are you a Britney Groupie reader living in New Orleans? If you’re attending her performance I’d love to hear from you to know how her first show went off!

Jessica Alba and Cash Warren took a break from parenthood and hit the town for a night of fun.  The newlyweds were spotted leaving Crown Bar in Hollywood and (gasp!) even had smiles on their faces. Apparently not even the paparazzi could ruin their fun!

Jessica was layered up in leggings, a tunic, bomber jacket, scarf and adorable ankle boots. Jessica’s hair was braided - a trend we’ve been spotting (and copying) lately. Missing in action - her usual giant handbag. In its place? A chic, classic quilted Chanel bag.

Is it just us or has Jessica been sporting a more bohemian style since becoming a mama?

As a child, Denmark’s Princess Mary must have had a lot of practice constructing native Australian animals out of Lego pieces.

On a visit to a Danish Lifestyle Exhibition in the Central World shopping mall in Bangkok, Princess Mary made a kangaroo out of red and yellow Lego bricks. The toy is a perfect marriage of Princess Mary’s native Australia and her adopted country of Denmark. The Lego company is based in Billund, Denmark.

Princess Mary and Prince Frederik are on an official visit to Thailand from November 24-26, 2008.

The hectic schedule during the 3-day visit meant that the couple’s two children, Prince Christian and Princess Isabella, had to be left at home. Among the places Prince Frederik and Princess Mary visited were a Danish lifestyle exhibition and the Central World shopping center in Bangkok.

Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise and Suri Cruise returned back to their New York apartment after an overnight trip. An overnight trip where? I am not sure!

Both Katie and Suri looked extremely tired. How nice to have cameras in your face after getting back from a trip. Ugh. I can’t imagine. Tom looked cheerful and full of energy as usual.

Suri had her stuffed giraffe with her and dropped it as they were getting out of the car. I wonder if Suri is the kind of kid who falls asleep in the car easily? She definitely looks ready for a nap in this picture!

Tom Cruise has snagged the number 9 spot on Babara Walter’s TV special ‘Barbara Walters Presents: The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2008′.

I am very excited that he made this list! I personally think he is fascinating, which is why I write about him. lol I am also excited about this because it means we get to see him on her special. I hope there is a decent interview with him. I am sure she will ask him about Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise.

Tom’s good friend Will Smith grabbed the number 10 spot. You can see who landed number one on her list when her special airs on December 4th at 10PM ET/PT on ABC.

Congrats Tom!

Tom Cruise recently revealed that he and Katie Holmes do want to add another child to their family. They are waiting until Katie is done with her Broadway stint and returns back to their family home in California.

Tom said, ‘We have already heard she’s pregnant but it’s not true. But yes, we will have more children. I’m saying this, but Kate’s not here! She’s working and we’re enjoying this time right now. It’s very precious, we don’t get this time back.

‘When Suri was born we shut everything down for months, just to be with Suri and the kids. But now I’m making movies and Kate is loving being on Broadway because it has been a dream of hers, so we are enjoying this time too.’

They are definitely one busy couple right now and there is no room for a pregnancy, that’s for sure! When they do decide the time is right, they are going to have three very excited children. Nicole Kidman says that Connor Cruise wants a little brother! Although, it will be interesting to see how Suri reacts to not being the center of attention anymore. I know my daughter had a very hard time when her little brother came around. When I was changing his diaper, she used to grab the diaper and try to hide it somewhere. Little stinker. :-)

When Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise went shopping on November 24th, the paparazzi got some excellent and adorable pictures of Suri. She looks so beautiful in her blue dress, hanging on to her baby doll and walking around NY doing some shopping. 

Tom Cruise recently spoke to Entertainment Tonight and was saying that Suri will not wear pants. She hates them! She is a girlie-girl through and through and only wants to wear dresses.

Tom also commented on trying to protect his kids from the paparazzi. He said, “As a parent you protect your children, but Suri is a very open and warm child and she’ll just wave to people on the street. She’s such a happy, fun girl.”

See below for some even cuter photos of Suri Cruise.
