Britney Spears has been on the headlines lately because of her Circus tour, but today, the pop star flew into Miami via private jet and landed in a hospital to surprise a few sick kids.

Britney and her family stopped by Miami Children’s Hospital for a surprise visit with sick kids and donated a whopping $100,000 to the hospital’s Big Apple Circus Clown Care, a community outreach program that brings the joys of the circus to hospitalized children at 19 leading pediatric facilities across the United States. Pretty huge amount, if you ask me.

Apparently, pediatric radiologist Ricardo Restrepo and the Director of Media for Southern Wine and Spirits America Lee Schrager arranged for Britney to visit the hospital. Since the circus theme of her tour was a natural tie in for a hospital with clowns, the pop star – along with her dad Jamie of course – agreed.

Spears took about ten minutes at the hospital. The singer posed for a few photos with kids, barely spoke beyond “Say cheese,” and was in and out of the hospital to get ready for her concert later that evening.

Britney Spears has just officially made a comeback. Although she “may” have lipsynched all throughout the concert in New Orleans, Britney has received an overwhelming review from both critics and fans (old ones, re-gained ones and new ones). And with such a spectacular performance and amazing costumes (MANY photos below), Britney may just completed the final stage of her comeback.

The Circus world tour started in New Orleans, wherein lucky people from the crowd witnessed a dozen costume changes and experienced a 17-song set. Unlike Britney’s past performances before her breakdown, Ms. Spears was filled with energy last night.

While most fans who watched the concert were thrilled, such as fan Natasha Stcyr who told Reuters, “The theatrics, the performance, it was great. Phenomenal. It was definitely a circus. It was awesome. She’s definitely back,” some were “disappointed” mainly because of the lipsynch.

Apparently, no bad reviews can stop Britney Spears now. Since her “Circus” album launched in December, it has sold over 1.3 million copies worldwide. The pop star is set to perform in 31 cities in the US before she brings her entire circus to perform 8 shows at London in June.
