HOLLYWOOD - Britney Spears is enjoying the pop life in Western Europe.Spears was the opening act at the NRJ awards--France's version of the Grammys--which kicked off this year's Midem, the international trade show for music professionals, Saturday. The big winners of the night included Dido and Garou. Mick Jagger also performed his new single, "Visions of Paradise."
The singer was at Midem, which is being held this year in Cannes, to promote her new movie Crossroads--which premieres in the U.S. in February--and her third album Britney--which has already sold close to eight million units worldwide, Variety reports.
Although Spears' acting debut in Crossroads is being received with apprehension by the critics, the 20-year-old is hopeful and excited to be on the big screen, as evidenced by her comment at a recent London press conference, "Everything the critics like, I hate."
