Baring (almost) all: Britney kicked off the London leg of her UK tour at the O2 last night with a selection of risque costumes


Britney Spears performed the first London concert of her UK tour last night- and the singer certainly made her presence felt.

Wearing a multitude of skimpy costumes, the 29-year-old paraded about the colourful stage showing off her stomach, legs, and as much else as she could get away with.

The singer bared a great deal of midriff throughout the show, at one point wearing only a pink sequined bikini top on her upper half, paired with the briefest of denim hot pants.
