Britney Spears fan dies in Dublin after fall from stage
October 25th, 2011 - 8:21 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattDublin, Oct 25 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A fan of Britney Spears fell and died on Monday night at the O2 Arena. The female fan is said to be 31 years old. Police say she was thrown off a fairground ride just outside the arena.
Officials removed the body of the woman from the accident scene immediately. The incident happened at about 11:20 pm. Irish officials have announced their investigation into the accident.
Ireland experienced severe rains on Monday. Fans had queued outside the O2 arena but the rain severely disrupted the program. Spears is currently promoting her album Femme Fatale in Europe. She is scheduled to play to a sold-out crowd at Belfast on Tuesday night before moving to London.
The initial response to the concert in the United Kingdom has not been that encouraging. It was estimated that the eight scheduled concerts in the United Kingdom were going to be sold out but it has not turned out to be so.
The 29-year-old was forced to reduce the price of the ticket but that did not change things that much. Spears will be playing in Birmingham on the 30th of October. Officials say the tickets for that particular concert is just half-sold.
