Song lyrics in musical Spamalot poking fun at Britney Spears have been replaced by ones about Posh Spice, reports The Associated Press. When asked why the words were changed, Spamalot’s songwriter Eric Idle said: “Because we don’t laugh at sad people. Mike Nichols (the show’s director) requested it and he’s right. We changed the lyrics in London, on tour, on Broadway and in Las Vegas. “We think that it’s now too sad. Britney Spears is being tortured to death and we don’t want to be on that side,” he added The lyrics from the song Diva’s Lament have been changed from “I’ve no Grammy, no rewards. I’ve no Tony Awards. I’m constantly replaced by Britney Spears. Britney Spears!” to “They hate me there backstage. They say I’m too old for my age. They’re trying to replace me with Posh Spice. With Posh Spice!”
