How much do you think the Insurance people added to the premiums to cover Britney shaving her head?
As for a naked flame, drugged up deranged rock star with a can of lighter fuel in his hands and an audience in an enclosed theater and I think a bald talentless pop star is easier to insure.
I agree it would not make the 6.00 news, unless the rock star decked the safety and fire control officers as they ran across the stage armed with fire extinguishers.
Trust me it's a different world. Anyone remember a band called
The Crazy World of Arthur Brown? Drugged up to his eyelids wearing a flaming head dress.
"First coming to public awareness in the late 1960s, Brown quickly became known for his outlandish performances, which included the use of a burning helmet (notably on Top of the Pops) whilst miming to the track "Fire" (a practice employed by most of the show's performers; Brown himself had to mime to the tune as the strap holding his helmet to his head inhibited the mobility of his jaw). Perhaps his most memorable mishap occurred in Windsor, England, when the methanol that fueled his crown poured over his head and caught fire. Fortunately, two bystanders doused the flames by pouring beer on Brown’s head, preventing any serious injury."
I can see Britney doing that. In my day dreams.
