Britney Spears 'Really Excited' for New Tour (Video)

Britney Spears is busy preparing for her Femme Fatale tour, but sat down with Entertainment Tonight to give a sneak peak of the rehearsals, and to talk about life on the road with the two most important men in her life: her sons.

"I'm really excited," Spears says about her upcoming tour, which kicks off on June 17. "I'm probably going to be extra nervous the day before but we've been working hard for two months now, and everything is coming together."

Spears tells ET that she's been "eating really clean," running to get her body into tour shape and preparing for life on a tour bus.

"As long as I have all the seasons [of 'Sex and the City'] with me, I can be entertained on the bus," she says of living on the road.

Spears also talks about her two sons, Sean Preston, 5, and Jayden James, 4, who will come on the road with the singer when she starts her tour.

"They're really confused with 'Mommy the Star' and [just] mommy, you know? So it's really interesting to see. 'Is that 'Britney Spears' or is that you, mommy?' I'm like, it's the same person! It's really sweet," she says.

VIDEO : Britney Spears and Kim Kardashian Wear the Same Look

They were on opposite sides of the country but both Kim Kardashian and Britney Spears rocked the same ensemble over the weekend.

Although these two are polar opposite in looks, they seem to have the same taste in clothes. They each managed to take the look in a different direction, adding their own flare to the geometric mini.

"We're style twins," Kardashian tweeted about her fashion friend, Spears.

Kardashian paired the dress with some pumps for her night out on the town in Miami, with boyfriend, Kris Humphries while Spears added a little edge with her mid-calf black boots in Los Angeles at KIIS FM's 2011 Wango Tango Concert.

Get a closer look at the two, and check out a video weighing in on the identical looks below

Britney Spears Headlines Star-Studded Concert as Host, Not Singer

Britney Spears, who was characterized as mentally unsound by her mom's legal team recently, was tapped by Los Angeles' KIIS FM to guest-host with Ryan Seacrest at this weekend's annual

Wango Tango concert at the Staples Center.

Fans enjoyed a diverse roster, according to MTV News, including performances from Jennifer Lopez, Ke$ha, Selena Gomez, Cobra Starship, T-Pain, Lupe Fiasco, Cody Simpson, Far East Movement and 'Glee' star Matthew Morrison.

Ke$ha brandished her famous glitter gun for her second year appearing at Wango Tango. And J.Lo rocked her spangled catsuit, but was hampered by a sudden, serious audio glitch (video after the jump). For a long stretch of her single 'On the Floor,' the 'American Idol' star had to improvise booty bumps after her mic went out.

Fan video on YouTube shows a smiling Lopez in her best show-must-go-on mode when she realizes the sound system has failed mid-performance:

Britney Spears' Parents: Our Daughter Is Mentally Unsound

Although Britney Spears seems to have bounced back from her mentally questionable days, when it comes to her mother's legal battles, the pop star's parents don't think their daughter's noggin is up to snuff to testify, according to Billboard.

Spears' ex-manager, Sam Lutfi, is suing Lynne Spears for defamation -- she wrote in her memoir, 'Through the Storm,' that he was responsible for cutting off her family's communication with their daughter and over-influencing the already vulnerable and deteriorating star in a negative way.

Lutfi and his legal team have asked Spears to testify to the fact that he was not the manipulating force behind the pop queen's breakdown. But Spears' parents believe their daughter is not mentally capable of giving a deposition. But not taking no for an answer, Lutfi has demanded that a judge order Spears to undergo a psychiatric exam to prove her lucidity.

Although her troubled days seem to be behind her, Spears' father, James Parnell Spears, remains in control of her conservatorship. The crooner's protective papa doesn't want his daughter anywhere near Lutfi. But with evidence in the form of Spears' recent interviews, Lutfi believes that she is more than capable of speaking her mind.

Still Spears' family may be putting their foot down when it comes to their daughter's potential mental wellness exam for a different reason -- if she does prove capable of testifying, her conservatorship may also be lifted.

Brian Friedman Brings Britney Spears Back to Her Dancing Roots

He turned Britney Spears into a performing icon with unforgettable dance moves in music videos like “I’m A Slave 4 U,” “Overprotected” and “Toxic.” So when Britney was hoping to re-connect

with the “old Britney” in her first two music videos for her new Femme Fatale album, it was choreographer Brian Friedman she called up to choreograph “Hold It Against Me” and “Till The World Ends.”

“I got the phone call saying, ‘Britney really wants to get back together with you, are you available?’ ” says Brian, who started working with Britney the day after Christmas to prepare for the videos. “Everyone is definitely in a different place now. We’re grown. When Britney and I worked together before, she was 19, I was in my early 20s. I’m 30 now and she’s a mother with two. We have different goals and energies and priorities. It’s great to see her grown up and she’s got her babies, who mean everything to her. A lot has changed.”

Brian met Britney back when they were first starting out their careers – she had just released her first single and he soon became her back-up dancer, and then choreographer.

“Brian’s the one that’s really behind the genius thing going on!” Britney has said.

After taking a five-year break while Brian pursued other projects, including work on So You Think You Can Dance, judging on X Factor and  producing America’s Got Talent, Britney worked with other choreographers.

So how have things changed now that Britney’s grown up?

“She knows what she wants and there’s often a lot of times where she’s like, ‘Uh uh. I’m not doing that,’” Brian says. “It’s not that she doesn’t like [the dance move]. She just says, ‘It doesn’t look good on my body. This would feel better.’ You’ll give another option and then she’ll say, ‘That’s what I like, this is good.’ And being that she’s a dancer, we vibe off of each other on a lot of steps.”

Brian also has learned over the years that the best way to teach Britney, is through humor.

“I feel like a comedian all day when we’re working together,” he tells OK!. “If you do a little squat down to the floor, I always scream, ‘take a poop!’ … I always use analogies with steps because if you remember, ‘take a poop, wipe it off’ then you remember doing a squat and then coming up and doing a hip roll with your hands on your hips.”

After mastering how to get through to pop stars with his unconventional techniques, now Brian is looking to create six icons of his own – the next Britney Spears and Justin Bieber — for a docu-reality-series project called “Discovered.” The audition process begins in L.A. on April 26 (click HERE to find out how to audition!).

“I want to find the people that don’t have their deal done and I want to create them from the ground-floor up, which is why I’m not able to do Britney’s tour,” says Brian, who was a potential candidate for her tour. “It was great to be back with her and I’m definitely there for videos, because videos aren’t as long of a time commitment.”

Brian’s decision to work with young talent over established artists on his show isn’t the first time he’s enjoyed helping future stars. He’s been a longtime choreographer with The Pulse on Tour, a dance workshop that travels the US teaching students the dance moves that he and other respected choreographers (including Lady Gaga’s LaurieAnn Gibson, Janet Jackson’s Tyce Diorio and NSYNC’s Wade Robson) have made famous.

“They called me basically because of my work with Britney Spears, and they said, ‘We would love to have you teach in our one day workshop.’ And I said, ‘Definitely.’ ”

Through the Pulse and his upcoming series, Brian’s hoping to produce the next new crop of talent and teach the choreographers who will work with them. The most common question he gets from the young artists is always the same: “What is it like to work with Britney Spears?” But the answer never changes.

“For me, it’s Britney Spears and it’s just like working with anybody else,” Brian says. “I think it’s important for people to know that you just can’t place them on a pedestal because the second you do, rehearsals will be weird.”

And at the end of the day, Britney Spears may be a pop icon, but in some ways she’s like any other girl.

“Britney’s pretty simple with her requests,” Brain says. “She likes her vanilla candles in her room. And before we would go into any of the work that we would do, her only request was a ham and cheese croissant.”

'The Fighter' Director David O. Russell Wants to Work With Britney Spears

She's the resident queen of pop but when it comes to her career in film, she seems to be more of a one hit wonder. Britney Spears made her film debut in 2002's 'Crossroads' to a less than lukewarm

reception but there's one director who thinks Spears has what it takes to take another crack at the silver screen.

According to Vulture, David O. Russell, director of the Oscar nominated 'The Fighter,' has high hopes for Spears and thinks that her "great entertainer" status on stage could translate to film.

"I think Britney could be great in a lot of different things, and I'm a huge fan of hers," Russell said.

Russell has even auditioned Spears for film roles in the past. And although she wasn't among those vying for a spot in 'The Fighter,' "she could have played one of the sisters when she was in her rough period, but not now."

But the 'Till The World Ends' singer isn't the only one who has Russell singing their praises -- the director would also like to work with Johnny Depp, Cher, Jack White and Rihanna.

According to Russell, with the above talent it would be hard to make a bad flick: "Sounds like you can't go wrong with those people right there. Just add camera and stir."

But Russell isn't only a fan of the femme fatale's on-screen potential. He's also a fan of her music.

"I went to the Circus concert," he said. "I think she's a great entertainer."
