Britney Spears’ spectacular Circus Tour show reeked and oozed of nonstop sex, seduction and eroticism -- and fans including Paris Hilton loved it! Pop princess Britney was at her best! She danced her heart out for 95 minutes of total excitement on the three-ring, 360-degree stage set up in MGM Grand Garden Arena.

One may have expected a train wreck, but instead the show was one of the biggest and best theatrical concert productions ever staged! Here are our first photos, and we’ll have the full photo gallery and backstage stories here at Vegas DeLuxe tomorrow.

With the high-energy Pussycat Dolls as the perfect opening act and the Big Apple Circus performers preceding Britney, it was three hours of stunning showbiz, complete with Britney portraying everything from a female cop to army officer to stripper to circus ringmistress. She even appeared and disappeared as a magician’s assistant with the fastest wardrobe changes inside the magic boxes!

It’s totally irrelevant if she lip synched or sang live because she put on a platinum performance of dance devilry that thrilled the sold-out crowd -- some paying as much as $2,500 a ringside seat!

This was way more than a concert: This was a mind-blowing and massive theatrical extravaganza. She writhed inside a cage, moaned while hung upside down with her sex slaves, provocatively wrapped her body around the stripper poles and teased with the ultimate body and booty shake -- and that’s before all the grinding complete with sparks, fireworks and steam eruptions!

Meantime, after the concert, Paris, boyfriend Doug Reinhardt and sister Nicky Hilton were spotted at Tao in The Venetian after dinner at Lavo in the Palazzo. Actress Jaime King, who was celebrating her 30th birthday at the clubs there this weekend -- and again today at Tao Beach, later joined them.

Early this morning, Britney showed up briefly for an exclusive after-party for about 50 people in music and movie mogul Phil Maloof’s Sky Villa atop brother George Maloof’s Palms Place. The Pussycat Dolls moved over there for the Brit bash after their stop at Pure in Caesars Palace, along with Circus Tour dancers and performers.

DJ Paul Oakenfold, who is one of two resident turntable titans at the Palms, spun the wheels of steel for the party. Although Britney left earlier, I am reliably told that her guests danced until 3 a.m. During the party, the jugglers and contortionists from the tour put on a show to entertain guests.

Chef Kerry Simon catered the party with sliders and crispy sesame rice and spicy tuna tartar taste treats and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for dessert, along with his junk flood platter of Snowballs, brownies, cotton candy, caramel popcorn and ice cream.
