It is confirmed that this year is going to be the last year for Britney Spears to perform on "Piece of Me" Vegas residency. On Friday, April 7, Britney's manager, Larry Rudolph, claimed that the pop star's contract with Caesar's Entertainment would end on December 31. "We are done with this show, and our next move is undecided. We are still talking with Caesars Entertainment and other interested parties in Las Vegas," Larry said.
Although the show is coming to an end, it looks like there are possibilities of new show. The manager added, "Anything is possible. We have made zero decisions. We expect a lot of interests from all parties. Britney basically sells out every show, and she loves Las Vegas, she loves performing in Vegas, and Vegas is a possibility going forward."
Britney's next move, however, is still a mystery. "We could have it at the needle on the top of the Stratosphere, and do the bungee jump afterward," Larry said, before adding, "She might tour, she might work on a new album. It's too early to talk spesifics about anything."
Confirming the news, the "Toxic" hitmaker took to Twitter on April 10 to announce the dates of her last "Piece of Me" show. She wrote, "The last #PieceOfMe dates...ever. Saying goodbye to this show is going to be SO hard."

"Piece of Me" has apparently become a "piece" of her, so that she thinks it's not going to be easy to say goodbye to the show. "As I prepare to say goodbye to 'Piece of Me,' I had no idea how magical this experience would be," Britney said in a statement. "Having my fans from around the world come see my show has been amazing. I love Las Vegas and will miss performing this show."
Britney's "Piece of Me" residency opened in December 2013. She then extended her contract in 2015 with Planet Hollywood to run the show until 2017.
