London, March 03: Singer Britney Spears has set off on her much awaited Circus tour and her entourage this time will include her two young sons and ex-husband Kevin Federeline.
Although K-Fed has primary custody of the couple`s sons Sean Preston and Jayden James, he has negotiated a deal with Britney to allow the boys to join her on tour.The arrangement was worked out after Spears refused to go on tour without her two children.
Meanwhile, the 30-year-old aspiring rapper is being paid USD 5,000 a week to accompany his children, say reports.
During the US leg of her tour, 27-year-old Spears will have three bases at New Orleans, New Jersey and Los Angeles where the boys will stay while she travels to nearby venues. K-Fed will also have his own apartment at each base.
"They will be available in her life when she is done with the rigours of performing," K-Fed`s lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan said.
"He is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful," said Kaplan.
While Spears took a private plane to the venue, 16 trucks had already set off from Los Angeles last week with the elaborate set for her Circus show.
Also joining her will be a team of dancers, circus performers and TV illusionist Ed Alonzo, who is rumoured to be`cutting` Britney in half on stage.
Spears had returned to performing in November last year, after two years during which she went through multiple meltdowns and had to undergo rehab.
During her tour of Europe and Japan to promote her album Circus in November the singer was criticised for her obvious lip syncing and lacklustre dancing.
The Toxic singer is therefore going great lengths to make sure that her tour.
The 44-date Circus tour runs for four months and covers the US, Canada and London, with plans to expand to the rest of Europe with six gigs in London`s O2 arena between 3-14 June.
