Britney halts show because of marijuana

Britney Spears was forced to stop her most recent show on her tour because members of the crowd were smoking marijuana.

The performance in Vancouver halted abruptly when it became too smokey in the arena. A voice apparently announced that Britney would not continue the show if people continued to smoke marijuana!

A rep said after the show, "We want to apologise to all the fans who attended our Vancouver show tonight for the brief pause in Britney's set. Crew members above the stage became ill due to a ventilation issue."

But sources say Britney did come back on after 20 minutes pause, but after her set finished she shouted out to the crowd, "Thanks Vancouver. You were wonderful. Drive safe. Don't smoke weed!"
