Britney Spears stops show for pot smoke

Britney Spears was playing a show in Vancouver, British Columbia, when she stopped after just three songs due to the heavy pot smoke drifting from the crowd. The show was suspended for nearly an hour after an initial announcement that the smoke was unsafe for Britney and the crew. According to Britney’s rep, quoted on PerezHilton, it was indeed a safety issue for the crew above the stage:

The Toxic performer, who doesn’t even sing live at her shows, walked off stage after just three songs.

The concert came to a complete standstill, lights off, for over 20 minutes – when a voice came over the speaker system and announced that the show would not continue if people kept smoking marijuana (and cigarettes) in the arena. The announcer claimed it was “unsafe” for Britney and the performers to continue with the concert.
