Will Britney Spears ‘ New Year’s Eve meltdown cost her $400,000? Sources say Pure nightclub in Las Vegas wants to nix her almost half-million dollar appearance fee, after she violated the contract. "Britney failed to spend the agreed amount of time in the club, because she had to be helped out after collapsing," alleges a close source. The tipster also says the club is "furious" with her because of her PR spin that she merely fell asleep — implying the place is boring. Britney’s rep dismissed the story. A club mouthpiece insisted her remuneration was "less than half" of $400,000 and that she wasn’t penalized for leaving early. "Britney had a great time," said the spokeswoman. "We love her and can’t wait for her to come back." But an insider familiar with the club says: "The moment a celebrity gets into one of those deals they are on the clock. They are watched to the minute, and they are not allowed to leave early. It’s a contractual obligation." You’d think the club would be more disappointed if Britney came to the party and didn’t pass out.

I wonder if Pure would want their money back if they said she collapsed because she was sh!tfaced?
