Britney Spears performed live late Tuesday night for the first time in nearly three years with a 14-minute set for screaming fans in San Diego at the House of Blues at about 10:15 p.m.
Security guards rushed to the edge of the stage to hold back the fans. Spears then began her set, lip-syncing her hits "... Baby One More Time," "Do Somethin'," "I'm a Slave 4 U," "Breathe on Me" and "Toxic."
The show featured rapid-fire costume changes, back-up dancers and light and smoke effects. Spears's Pussycat Dolls-style choreography included plenty of quick, sexy hip-hop moves, head spins, twirls and rump-shaking.
At one point during her performance, Spears pulled one male fan up from the audience and dirty danced around him with her blonde backup dancers.
