If you’re wondering exactly what Britney Spears will be doing on her much-anticipated ‘Glee’ episode, the singer posted a picture on Twitter which was obviously inspired by her ‘Me Against the Music’ video with actress Heather Morris. If you’ve seen the picture, Britney and Heather switched places, with Britney taking on Madonna’s role while Heather, who plays Brittany, takes on the pop princess. Britney also tweeted “All my GLEEKERS in the crowd, Grab a partner take it down.” I guess they’re recreating her most memorable videos in the episode as Lea Michele was also spotted recreating the ‘Baby One More Time’ video.
Ryan Murphy has officially confirmed that Britney Spears will indeed be getting a tribute episode during the next season of the FOX hit TV series ‘Glee’. The show’s creator and producer even said that he’s already in the middle of writing the episode revolving around the pop singer. However, there’s no word yet on whether Britney will make an appearance herself during the show. It would be epic if she did. Having the kids go around in clothes or looks that she had throughout her career during the episode just wouldn’t have as great an impact as the Lady Gaga episode.
Britney Spears has a new line of clothing on Candie’s which came out earlier this week. The 28-year old pop singer recently sat down with InStyle to talk about what her favorite items on the collection are. Britney shared “I love the black trench coat. You can wear it over your outfit or as a dress. There’s also an amazing studded skirt that’s perfect for going out. I wanted to make the clothes cool and edgy yet girly. I also love jeans, so I had to make sure there were some great pairs in the collection.” Miley Cyrus should shop there. There are great age appropriate clothes for her that are along the lines of showing that she’s a grown up without looking slutty.
Sources connected with Britney Spears are saying that her conservatorship has essentially become a formality because the singer now makes almost all of her personal decisions herself. The pop star’s dad, Jamie Spears, is the official conservator and has the power to make life decisions for his daughter but sources say that he has intentionally pulled back and is allowing Britney to control her life. However, it’s still sketchy as to when the conservatorship will end. Everyone involved says that Britney is like a different person from the one who was put on a 5150 back in January 2008. But while Britney makes her own life decisions, the control of the business is still under Jamie. For the most part, Jamie would like to set Britney free and go back home to Louisiana.
The skater apparently wants to put aside his ice-gliders and turn to a life of pop music. Johnny Weir is also pretty ambitious about it since he has wishes of being compared to Britney Spears. This is what he said on the matter: “I’m going to record a song in May, just for fun. I know I’m not a legitimate, real singer, but I can still rock it like Britney. I’ve been working a lot on my voice – if I only do one song in my life, I want it to be a huge success. My main goal is to perform it at the VMAs. I want to come out on a little circle of ice from underneath the stage or something crazy like that!” Talk about starting out big… but then again, it’s not really that hard to record one hit and then get onto the VMA’s and do a thing or two that won’t be easily forgotten. Proof? Britney Spears has done a few times around, so why shouldn’t Johnny Weir have a go too?
It seems that Taylor Swift’s success just doesn’t stop for anything… she most likely has Kanye West to thank for that one, though, he’s the one that really rocketed her to fame. Her latest achievement is breaking Britney Spears’ record for best download debut by a female artist with her track “Today was a fairytale”. Apparently the song is also featured on the soundtrack of Taylor Swift’s acting debut, “Valentine’s Day”. Well, well, looks like the future belongs to Taylor Swift, doesn’t it? Kanye West is no longer the voice of the generation… that must steam him up a bit.
It seems that the singer’s fabled 2008 Video Music Awards dress is going to be auctioned and the proceeds will be going to the Haiti relief fund. But bear in mind, this is no ordinary dress! Britney Spears won three awards that faithful day wearing this same dress. It’s practically and ancient artifact by now and unthinkable powers shall befall he who manages to get his grubby little paws on it. After all, Britney Spears is no ordinary human being, but a legend among legends. So it should cash in quite a hefty price, especially if those invited to do the bidding are the right people.
If you are part of the Twitter world, I’m sure you would have noticed something a little off with Britney Spears’ page. Obviously, someone was able to hack into the pop star’s page. I have to give some props to whoever did it because it is pretty funny, albeit sick too. The hacker not only has the singer offer herself up to Satan but also has her warn us of the new world order. I wonder how Britney reacted when she saw her page when she woke up. I’m pretty sure she would have worn a face that I would have paid to see.
Tune in to The Ellen DeGeneres Show on October 20th to catch a performance from OneRepublic. The band will play their current single “All The Right Moves” which appears on their forthcoming album Waking Up due out on November 17th.
OneRepublic recently premiered the Wayne Isham (Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Metallica) directed video for the track which can be seen here.
Britney Spears has fallen for one of her back up dancers. Why does that sound so familiar? The pop star has reportedly fallen for 21-year old dancer Chase Benz from Tennessee. A source is saying that “Brit really loves the way Chase looks, and she has a thing for Southern boys with loads of charm. She’s totally into him. And being on tour again, plus having a sexy new guy to get close to, has put Brit in a great frame of mind.” As for Chase, he apparently adores Britney so things might get rolling in the romance department soon enough.
With a chart-topping album chock full of chart-topping singles, not to mention a successful comeback, a lot of people want to have the life that Britney Spears is living right now. But be prepared to pay the price if you want to be the recovered pop princess. Britney’s conservators have hired a total of 17 lawyers and law firms to handle her affairs over the last 14 months. You know that’s bound to cost a lot of money. According to legal papers filed in LA County Superior Court earlier this past week, the fees just keep on piling up. The attorneys representing Jamie Spears alone have already racked up more than $1 million in fees! And Britney’s actual total in legal fees – $2.7 million!
Britney Spears’ former assistant and long time friend Felicia Culotta has left her position working with the Jonas Brothers to help Brit come full circle by returning to her side. Effective immediately, Felicia will be working for Brit again. Felicia commented on the jump saying “Britney has always held a special place in my heart, and over the course of the last year I have seen her work harder than she ever has in her entire life. Sadly, I am really going to miss the Jonas boys, but I felt I had to be a part of this exciting time in Britney’s career. I love Britney and missed her dearly.”
Just when you think everything is all fine and dandy with Britney Spears, you have to hear the names Sam Lutfi and Adnan Ghalib again. Fortunately, the recovered pop princess has just obtained restraining orders against her once enablers. An inside source says that Britney asked her conservators to get her protection against the two adding that she was afraid of Sam and Adnan and that she wants them locked up in jail. Reports are surfacing that the two apparently conspired to try and undermine her conservatorship “in a way that would have been extremely harmful to her.” Lutfi’s attorney is said to be in on it too.
The singer recently received a ring that is supposed to have magical properties that shall boost her self confidence. The ring was made especially for her by designer Dara Dubinet who had this to say about it: “I made the ring with Britney in mind. When something is made with good intention, it carries that positive energy to the person who ends up wearing it.” Right… and I’m sure the ring has other properties as well: +5 to hot-headedness, +21 to “self-esteem” and +85% chance of making a complete fool out of yourself. Let the epic quests begin!
Based on early sales last week, Britney Spears’ latest album, Circus, was expected to debut with over 450,000 copies sold – up from an original prediction of around 300k..
But Britney Spears has surpassed the expectations and rocked my world!
According to Hits Daily Double, Britney has now sold 504,507 copies of Circus and made it to the top of the U.S. album charts!
She’s sold more albums in her firs week than Kanye and Beyonce did with their new albums!
Take that, Sasha Fierce!
Not only is Britney Spears’ Circus the # 1 album on iTunes today, but the title track is the # 1 single and # 1 requested ringtone too. Britney fever is in the air, and now is the time for fans everywhere to rally together to make her the highest debuting female artist of 2008! That means Ms. Spears needs to sell over 600,000 copies of Circus this week alone. Help give Britney the ultimate birthday gift this year and an automatic gold record.
While you’re in the Circus spirit, check out this birthday video that a few super fans made for Britney’s big day.
Britney Spears fan video:
Britney Spears made a subtle dig at her ex husband Kevin Federline in her interview with Rolling Stone implying that their son Sean Preston learned to curse from Kevin. In an interview with Glamour, Britney continues with the digs saying “In five years I would like to be married and have a father figure for my kids, someone who is a provider and can be really stable. It’s hard doing it on your own.” KFed may not be perfect but you have to commend him on doing a great job with the boys considering he did it alone when Britney was busy going crazy.
Britney managed to celebrate her 27th birthday despite her hectic schedules. However, the celebration was made in Good Morning, America where she was greeted through video by several actors including Hugh Jackman who has never even met her! The viewers of Good Morning, America were treated to a circus performance by Britney who sang two songs from her new album Circus.
Britney’s performance at the television elicited various reactions from people. Some praised her successful comeback while other criticized her choice of costume, her slow dancing and her lip synching. She dressed as a ringmaster and even smashed through a hoop with fire while singing “Womanizer”.
But no matter how they put Britney down it seems that ladyluck is on her side. She was recently awarded Best International Pop Star by Bambi Awards and her performance during the awarding praised by majority of those who watched the show. Britney is set to go on a concert tour starting March next year.
It seems Brit has learned her lessons and realized that it was her family who stood by her when she was down and out so she spent her birthday dinner with her mom Lynne, dad Jamie, sons 2-year old Jayden and 3-year old Preston and her manager Larry Rudolph.
SO Britney’s birthday came and went by but her ex-husband Kevin could not get in the picture so what does he do, well just speak something rubbish about Britney and the media will throng you to cover ur story, as simple as that.
The 30-year-old dancer claims Britney contacted a lawyer without his knowledge thus leaving him unprepared and it came as surprise to him when she asked for a permanent separation in 2006.
Come on guys give him a chance to say his side of the story once more, here we go – He said: “WE were having complications. I didn’t give her an ultimatum, but I was trying to work stuff out with her, and she didn’t even talk to me or anything and went behind my back and filed for divorce. I was completely blindsided.”
Poor fellow I really fell for him and my sympathies are with him. God damn fool if expects that then he’s having none of it. Britney was going through hell and he was going through her bank balance.
