Britney Spears Doesn't Translate Well Overseas

Source: Jossip

Well at least Britney Spears can always say that she's huge in Japan. Or China. The slightly trashy songstress was in one of those Asian countries as part of her Womanizer tour and wished all her fans "A Merry Christmas," despite the fact that the majority of Japanese viewers of Buddhists.

On the scale of 1-10 Britney Blunders this doesn't rank nearly as high as shaving your head or driving with your child in your lap, so that's improvement, I guess?

Surreal video, after the jump.

Japanese television viewers would expect a Western guest to say "meiri kurisumasu!" to everyone, as many Japanese celebrate Christmas as a minor secular gift giving holiday, just not a solemn religious one. As for China? No idea there.
