Wow, I seriously can't believe it's been 6 years, it really feels like it was just yesterday (reference). What an amazing show it was, this tour really did prove Britney was back and still had the ability to put on an incredible show. Even though she still got shit about her lip-syncing and dancing I think the tour really proved to the GP that she was still a force to reckoned with. I love how every show sold out and it's still her highest grossing tour to date!

I saw the show twice when she came to Houston, TX. The first show, I did the "Toxic VIP Experience" package which includes a VIP GA ticket, pre-show party, backstage tour, and the exclusive merchandise. I went with my sis that time and she's more of a casual Britney fan, mostly likes her older albums, but she still had fun with me. It was really cool going through the backstage tour and seeing all her costumes and props and everything so up-close. Some of the fan's reactions around me were a little negative at first. I heard some people saying like, "I wonder if she's still crazy LOL!" and shit like that. I just ignored them and when Britney came out, I screamed like I was dying lmao. We all sang and danced the whole time and I screamed every time Britney came in front of the ring we were at. Anyway, by the end of the show everyone around me was raving about it and said she looked really happy and healthy, which she did so that made me smile. :)

The 2nd time, my mom actually surprised me for my bday and got me and her Ringside seats. They weren't those stools that were apart of the VIP Pack, you had to buy them separately and they didn't include backstage tour, which I was fine with since I did it the first time. Anyway, best bday present ever!!! We had such a blast that night as well! Britney sang "You Oughta Know" that night and it was 100% live, along with "Everytime."

It was so incredible getting to see Britney so close both times, I could really feel her energy both times. And she genuinely looked so happy to be on stage performing. It was funny to me how so many "fans" on ExHELL and stuff were saying she was being forced by her dad and managers to do the tour, but she showed no signs of being unhappy the two times I saw her. I had an amazing time both times, great memories! That was my 2nd and 3rd time to see her. ;)
