Britney Spears is Back!

I genuinely hope Britney Spears is doing better. It looks like it, between the new album (Femme Fatale) and the fact that she’s still with a guy who seems decent (her old agent).

Well, I’m no shrink or anything, but Britney sure as hell looks fine here. This is a performance in San Francisco (sold-out, I hear) to help promote her new album. The chick looks damn good in fishnets, doesn’t she?

Looks like she gave the performance her all. Now if only Britney had a little wardrobe malfunction and that zipper slipped down: no one would mind seeing those tits naked, Brit Brit. I bet it’d do wonders for album sales, too.

Just a thought.

Britney Spears Will Release Her New Album On March 15

Britney Spears’ new album is slated for a March 15 release, according to a leaked one-sheet created by her label Jive Records that outlines the marketing campaign for the set. Jive confirmed to MTV News that the date listed on the sheet is accurate.

Also confirmed are various producers and songwriters who worked on the album, which still does not have a title. In addition to Dr. Luke and Max Martin — who together helmed lead single “Hold It Against Me” and are the album’s co-executive producers — Rodney Jerkins, R&B singer Avant, Stargate, Fraser T. Smith and Bloodshy are listed as collaborators.

Other details mentioned on the sales-solicitation sheet include a description of Britney’s highly-anticipated music video for “Hold It Against Me,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 last week.

The one-sheet sums up the video as “a sexy, edgy dance piece directed by Jonas Akerlund and showing Britney at peak form and ability.”

Spears seventh studio album, the follow-up to 2008′s “Circus,” will be available in both standard and deluxe versions, according to the sheet, with the latter including additional liner booklet pages and three or four extra tracks.

Fans can also expect “a major TV event to launch the album,” worldwide online contests and a “LGBT/lifestyle campaign” to market it to fans.
Spears’ manager, Adam Leber, recently spilled a few details involving her photo shoot for the album via Twitter, describing the shoot as “pure glam.” Fans should be on high alert for another leak, as Leber added, “Photos are nothing less than spectacular. We’ll share some soon.”

Britney Spears' New Single "Hold It Against Me" Leaks Online

The star of Britney Spears’ brand new single, “Hold It Against Me,” isn’t the pop tart herself. It’s a burning, pulsing swath of synthesizer that oscillates throughout the track and pulls you into the chorus. It may be nothing but a gimmick, but it’s the kind that can’t help but make you move.

That’s a good thing considering “Hold” means to be a dance-ready club song, one that conforms to current trend on the pop charts. The focus also clicks because it allows the song to sidestep the cipher at its center. (That would be Britney).

Ms. Spears has two long time collaborators to thank for this act of synth-pop camouflage: Max Martin and Dr. Luke.

“Hold It,” which makes its debut Tuesday at midnight on radio and on iTunes, serves as a first tease of Ms. Spears’ new CD, which arrives sometime in March. That as-of-yet untitled work will be her first since “Circus” two years ago.

Though that album marked a minor comeback for the singer by featuring far more appealing material than her aptly named “Blackout” from 2007, Spears has never fully recovered from her fall-from-grace some years back. Her “Circus” tour found her looking zombie-like and the album of the same name sold modestly by her standards (1.7 million).

The topless singer photos which also revealed the pop star's tattoos have been released just in time with her comeback to the stage in England, where Britney is performing a string of gigs at London’s O2 area,
