Britney Spears leaving Peppone restaurant in Brentwood (4/4)

The Britney Spears world tour rumors are heating up again. UK tabloid News of the World claims Britney is on the verge of signing a $100 million deal for a comeback tour:

The 26-year-old star is said to be desperate to get back on the road and leave her recent troubles behind her. Sources claim that the Toxic singer has already begun training for the mega-money shows with grueling dance sessions at the Millennium Dance Complex. Spears’ record label BMG are confident that she can restore her squeaky-clean image on the road.

“Things are looking up for Britney,” said a source. “She’s finally focusing on her career again. There will be no more on-stage blunders. Britney’s turned a corner and the world will be amazed with her.” (Source)

Why does Britney need to go on tour to leave her “troubles behind”? I thought she left the two of them at K-Fed’s house with the babysitter? If Britney really plans on getting back into shape, her “grueling dance sessions” should probably focus more on exercise and less on teaching five-year-olds how to make $20 per song. And if she’s adamant about keeping off the pounds, there’s only one scientifically proven way to reduce the intake of unwanted calories: spit.
