Britney Spears is reportedly planning a comeback concert in Las Vegas in an effort to put her troubled period behind her once and for all.

According to the News of the World, the singer is planning a one-off gig at the city’s Palms Hotel And Casino at the end of year, possibly followed by a series of other high profile gigs in 2009.

Britney’s 2007 album ‘Blackout’ was supposed to launch her career comeback last autumn after she took two years out to give birth to sons Sean and Jayden. However, her accompanying live performances - such as on the MTV Video Music Awards - were panned as amateur and clumsy.

However, a source told the newspaper that won’t be the case now that Britney is more accepting of professional advice following her hospitalisation earlier this year: “The concert will be one to top them all - a spectacle.

“It will have jaw-dropping lights, amazing costumes and a performance from Britney to roll back the years.

“There’s a [lot of money] on offer but the onus is on Brit to put in a top show.

“Britney is finally getting her life - and career - back on track and the whole world will see the evidence when she steps on that stage.”

This week the singer’s producers JR Rotem and Sean Garrett dropped hints that Britney is already working on her next album.

In related news, Britney has been linked to a new man Jason Trewick.

Jason is believed to be Britney’s agent but her dad Jamie Spears is said to fully approve of their professional relationship turning romantic.

A source told the Mirror: “Jamie thinks Jason would be a great match for Britney.

“She always had a thing for bad boys but now she realises good guys can be attractive, too.”

The pair attended fashion boss Christian Audigier’s 50th birthday party together over the weekend.
