Britney's New Interview From Paris!

ET is with Britney Spears in Paris as she brings her incredible "Circus" tour to the City of Lights! Read on to see what's new with the show, and where she'll be touring next!

"I'm very excited to be in Paris. It's one of the most beautiful places I've been to so far," Britney tells ET. The pop star just wrapped up a number of shows in the U.K. and next moves on to such exotic locales as Russia, Poland, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium and Germany.

Touring with the same exact routine day after day can get tiresome, so Britney's incorporated some new material into the "Circus," repertoire.

"We have a song called 'Mannequin' that we're adding to the show, which I'm really, really excited about, so it should be interesting," she reveals. "We have to update [the show] or it gets really boring."

Britney brings the "Circus" back to North America in just a few weeks, and she says, "We've changed up a couple of numbers in the show, so that's going to make it a lot more fun for me and the dancers. It'll be cool."

Britney's #1 In North America

According to source

The legendary Pollstar Boxoffice Department has been crunching numbers, adding up ticket sales and figuring out final grosses to give you a glimpse of the overall concert picture for the first six months of 2009.

Britney Spears tops the North American tour scene. Brit’s 37 shows in 30 cities resulted in an average of 20,498 tickets sold per show at an average price of $99.29 for a total gross of $61.1 million.

North America’s #1 grosser – Britney – finished third worldwide – 48 shows in 33 cities at an average ticket price of $95.04 and grossing 74.6 million total for the first half of the year.

Britney Spears Collapsed During Rehearsals

Britney Spears' Circus tour is starting to take a toll on her health. She reportedly collapsed during rehearsals recently and a doctor had to rush to her side.

“She collapsed when the dancers went to put her back on her feet,” a source told the National Enquirer.

“She fell to the floor and landed on one of the dancer’s legs — and the dancer’s tennis shoe smacked Britney in the chest and on her face. It hit her chest with such a force that it caused a four-inch bruise.”

Although Britney is physically strong and works out regularly, she reportedly doesn't eat right or get enough rest. She's been on tour since beginning of March '09 non-stop and that kind schedule takes a toll on a body & mind.

Luckily Britney is getting a little R&R while in Paris. She was photographed this week at the Eiffel tower with her little boys doing a little sightseeing. Lets hope she gets the much needed rest she needs before she collapses on stage during a show.

Take care of yourself Britney!

Britney's Formal Pal: "They Ruined My Life"

Britney Spears' former BFF has filed legal papers in his defamation lawsuit against Britney and her parents, claiming they have ruined his life.

The devil Sam Lutfi claims Lynne Spears' book about her famous daughter is a pack of lies, especially the part in which she says Sam told her he secretly ground up pills and put them in Britney's food.

Lutfi says as a result of the book, "I am constantly in fear for my life..." He says he was "harassed and cajoled by the public." If our memory serves us correctly, Lutfi was cajoled long before Lynne's book was published.

Lutfi trotted out his own cast of character witnesses in the new legal docs -- notably the infamous Adnan Ghalib -- currently being prosecuted for felony battery. Adnan wrote a declaration, claiming Lynne's assertions that Sam was effectively holding Britney hostage were false.
