Britney Spears looks svelte posing with her ‘second family’

Britney Spears looks like a lean, mean pop music machine in a new snapshot on the set of her recently-wrapped “Femme Fatale” tour.

In the upcoming issue of V magazine, Spears poses with her tour’s team, who she describes as “my second family.” Standing among her assorted managers, security guards and staff, Spears stuns in a pink tank top and black bandage skirt. The star traded in the frumpy Dr. Martens boots she wore on stage for high heels, leaving her looking longer and leaner that she has in years. Her new body is in thanks to trainer Derek DeGrazio, also pictured in the photo.

BRITNEY SPEARS ‘CAN’T STOP LOOKING’ AT ENGAGEMENT RING

BRITNEY SPEARS ENGAGED TO JASON TRAWICK

“I have worked with all of them for many, many years so it was fun to see them all together again on the first day of the tour,” Spears says of her staff in the accompanying article. “Everybody was catching up and telling all their fun stories from the past, laughing and just having a good time.”

But Spears clarifies that the group is able to get down to business. When asked about the biggest misconception of life on tour, she said, “That it’s a giant, nonstop, never-ending party. I mean, we do have a lot of fun backstage … but it’s mostly a large group of people working really, really hard to put on a great show for my fans.”

Spears also took a moment to reveal two mantras repeated over and over on the “Femme Fatale” tour: “You can’t make this (bleep) up” and “No surprises.”

It’s fitting that Spears refers to her team as “family,” as one former member of the flock will soon be her husband. Spears recently announced her engagement to former agent Jason Trawick, tweeting a photo of herself showing off a blingy diamond engagement ring.
