Britney Spears transforms from Femme Fatale to ordinary mom for son's class graduation

Britney Spears took time out of her Femme Fatale tour to attend a very special occasion - her son's class graduation.

The star was beaming as she headed off to see her five-year-old Sean Preston graduate from elementary school on Friday.

The 29-year-old singer jetted out of Sacramento after performing in the very first show of her Femme Fatale tour.

Sean is her first son with ex-husband Kevin Federline. They also have a four-year-old boy, Jayden James.

But hopefully the mother-of-two's outfit was merely just comfortable flying attire.

Britney looked drab wearing an long ill-fitting white and beige striped dress under an oversized chunky cardigan, paired with matching coloured stiletto boots.

Make-up free and her hair dishevelled in loose blonde waves, the singer also looked tired with heavy bags under her eyes.

Her weary look is no doubt attributed to her heavy workload at the moment.

Britney is the midst of her Femme Fatale tour.

The singer kicked off the 33-date extravaganza last week in Sacramento.

And already Britney has already come under fire for her seemingly bloated figure.

The singer hit the stage at the Power Balance Pavilion in the kind of shape you might expect to see someone who is taking a career break - not embarking on a hectic tour.

Prancing around in a variety of skimpy outfits, it was clear that this was not the Britney some might have expected to see.

Regardless, she wore a variety of eye-catching costumes as part of the racy new show, including a kimono-style gown, fishnet stockings and studded denim hotpants, opening with her hit track Hold It Against Me and tearing  through a set-list of 22 songs before closing with Toxic and Till The World Ends.

The outfits come courtesy of designer Zaldy Goco, who says: 'The real inspiration of course is Britney herself. We’re creating the show for her. But there’s a creative script that was done by the director, Jamie King, and it’s a whole thing about a femme fatale, and femme fatales throughout the ages … she’s sort of changing personas throughout the show.'

She added: 'Britney is a very sexy girl, so everything has to be sexy.'

Reviews of the show have been hugely positive, in particular the live singing.

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton commented: 'I really enjoyed this show, and I'm being honest. As a stand alone piece, the Femme Fatale tour is thoroughly enjoyable.

'Britney sings live and I feel like this time the show and her are on the same level, Britney seems to have gotten her spark back.'

In the past Britney has been criticised for miming through many of her live shows, however, the majority of the vocals in this opening show were sung - occasionally beefed up with recorded vocals.

The Femme Fatale show is based around an action-adventure theme, beginning with a video of the pop star being chased by police and with the set changing throughout the show to reflect the different identities Britney takes on throughout proceedings.

There are also costume changes to match these identities — nine in all — including an angel outfit, a kimono, and a kinky leather motorcycle-gear ensemble, specifically for her “S&M” performances.

Rap star Nicki Minaj will be injecting some colour and energy into the show's - appearing as an opener for Britney at each of her U.S. tour dates.

Britney will perform 33 dates across the U.S. before taking the Femme Fatale show to Europe in September.

Meanwhile Britney knocks out a paparazzo in first look at the video for new single I Wanna Go.

The singer posted the trailer on her Twitter page yesterday, just hours after wishing dad Jamie a happy Father's Day.

Chris Marrs Piliero, who created Ke$ha video Blow, directed the video.

I Wanna Go is the third single from Britney's platinum selling seventh studio album Femme Fatale.
