Late last week news broke that Britney Spears had split from her boyfriend David Lucado after dating for over a year. In case anyone is wondering why, the 32 year-old singer explained all during her 'Piece Of Me' residency show at Las Vegas' Planet Hollywood on Sunday night (Aug 31st).

Spears confirmed ex-boyfriend David Lucado cheated on her

Ever since Spears made the announcement by posting on Twitter "Ahhhh the single life!" there has been much speculation that the reason behind the couple's separation was due to Lucado's infidelity. Surprisingly, she confirmed to the 5,000 attendees that this was true.

"Well, by now everyone knows my boyfriend cheated on me," she said, according to MTV.com. "But the best part of breaking up is going on first dates. OMG, OMG, I need a hot guy. Where are the hot guys here tonight?"

Moments later, the 'Toxic' singer picked out a male individual from the crowd who happened to be celebrity blogger Perez Hilton. As her backup dancers grabbed Hilton onstage, he was placed in outfit of leather and chains, and Spears quickly began singing "Freakshow" while Hilton was being walked like a dog.

"@britneyspears just made me her bitch - literally! Hope @Rihanna doesn't get jealous! It was like the Circus tour opening 2.0. #PieceOfMe," he tweeted after the show.

Lucado met Britney through a mutual friend while working at law firm, and only last November (2013) she publically admitted that she was "in love" with him because he was "just a simple man. I adore him, he's really funny and he's really passionate. I love the fact that anything he's involved in he's passionate about and it's contagious."
