Artist: Britney Spears

Good news:  Britney Spears  is doing press! The pop princess sat down with her former  X Factor   colleague  Mario Lopez  on  Extra  for a little chat about her  Shape  magazine cover shoot, her upcoming album and the Vegas show that's been rumored for the last twenty years . The bad news is that, while perfectly congenial, she still seems a little bit shut-down — somewhere between "low battery" and "a husk of her former self." Maybe a little chattier than normal, but no light in her eyes, really. Ah, well. She's still fairly tight-lipped about [...]

Poor Papney Smears, she or that weave need to retire, and she requires some eyebrows to be glued onto that face asap.

Providing the song which people will ignore as they tramp through discarded popcorn at the end of a Smurf movie sequel. That's what a stalled career looks like. -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

Maybe we've all just grown accustomed to seeing  Britney Spears  pushing boundaries, but the pop provocateur is playing it safe on her  Smurfs 2  soundtrack cut "Ooh La La" — and the critics have taken note. While they complimented the song's sound, nobody seemed particularly floored by it — then again, nobody hated it, either, which is a good thing. Head below to see how opinions varied. :: Our friends at Spin  liked it, more or less: "[I]t's peppy, guitar-bursting dance-pop that shouldn't overly upset [...]

Well hey, it's a new tune from  Britney Spears ! It's not a new single from a new album (for that , fans have to wait for  Will.i.am  to turn on his sonic trash compactor ), but it  is  a very delicious little nugget from the soundtrack for  The Smurfs 2 , a buoyant pop track titled "Ooh La La." With production credits from  Bonnie McKee  and  Dr. Luke , the song arrives with the same pedigree as "Hold It Against Me," but where that track's popstep sound felt fairly robust, "Ooh [...]

SMURF YOUR ENTIRE SMURF. "Ooh La La," Britney 's contribution to the soundtrack of The Smurfs 2 , has finally been leaked upon the Interwebz—on International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia no less, yet another milestone in Britney's tireless career as a LGBT warrior—and the results are pure, summery Smurfish delight. Let's break it down now — show me what you got! The premise: You are smurfing beautiful. It doesn't matter how much money you have or how many [...]

Un mese fa l'annuncio della partecipazione alla colonna sonora de I Puffi 2 , oggi l'uscita della canzone, seppure senza dichiarazioni pubbliche: Britney Spears ha finalmente rilasciato l'audio di Ooh La La , il brano che chiuderà il film in uscita il 31 luglio. "It's Smurfney, bitch!" è stata la frase più scritta dai fan, che hanno preso d'assalto il video con commenti eccitati di aver sentito di nuovo la voce della loro beniamina non solo come semplice feature vocale (una moda che [...]

Listen to Britney Spears' new song 'Ooh La La' from the Smurfs 2 soundtrack!

Britney Spears has been alluding her new album will be more hip hop and less pop, but before she serves us her urban mix, she brings us the very poppy ' Oh La La ', her contribution to the Smurfs 2 soundtrack. The summery track follows the pop sound heard on her last album Femme Fatale and some of he guitar pop on Ke$ha's album.

Lifted from the Smurfs soundtrack and ready to slay those Disney radio charts, the BRITNEY SPEARS mp3 contribution OOH LA LA has leaked. And she name checks me in it.

Britney Spears is scheduled to start recording her new album with will.i.am next week, according to Will himself. The Black Eyed Peas frontman is executive producing the album and told Billboard   before they hit the studio, "We've had these juicy sessions, where we've been bonding, building the trust and comfort. I've never worked like this before — not even the Peas." The multi-hyphenate previously said he planned to have several lunches with Spears to get a sense of the real Britney and "what she's [...]

I'm so tired due to lack of sleep last night (insert horn wink emoticon) that the BRIT SPEARS is looking good at Wango Tango earlier this week. Yet again, I've not slept much despite getting horizontal at 11pm last night, with the occasional diagonal position throughout the night.

Songwriters, producers and artists were honored for their contributions to music over the past year at the SESAC Pop Awards ceremony at the New York Public Library tonight, including Miguel , Melanie Fiona ...and Danja. I was fortunate enough to be invited to attend the event, and so, attend I did. Of course, being the loyal and devoted Britney stan that I am, there was only one mission on my mind upon learning that the unstoppable Danja was in the [...]

I pride myself on owning almost every Brit Brit CD single, album and vinyl pressing from around the world, including the French-only CD single for "Anticipating" and the Japanese limited edition pressing of Greatest Hits: My Prerogative with the silver phone charm—all of which I intend to be buried with. But here's something I've never seen: A trading card included in a European pressing of 19992s ...Baby One More Time , which Martin "Cherry Cherry Boom Boom" Kierzenbaum of Cherry Tree Records graciously sent in last night. It's got [...]

L.A.'s 102.7 KIIS FM Wango Tango concert this year proved to be quite a star-studded event. The concert held at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California rocked last night (May 11th), as everyone in Pop, Rock, and beyond showed up for the occasion. Among them was Demi Lovato , who brought fans a bunch of songs from her latest album Demi,  including the above performance of "Give Your Heart a Break." Perhaps one of the most exciting things at Wango Tango was the return of Britney [...]

The Legendary Miss Britney Spears ' issue of Shape hasn't hit shelves yet...except, uh, in Minnesota? Earlier this week, Shape premiered the cover of their June issue featuring Brit Brit, as well as a few teases of the upcoming issue for Entertainment Tonight . But the issue is apparently being (accidentally?) sold in some places in America, and reader/Godney stan Miles D. has graciously sent over the full scans of the issue. (Thanks, bb!) Check out the full scans below, including the fierce spread of Boxerney, B's workout playlist [...]

In just a few months, Britney 's going to be smurfing up her summer Smurf smash /soon-to-be Oscar-nominated anthem for the soundtrack of Smurfs 2 : "Ooh La La." Minutes ago, a song randomly surfaced called "Ooh La La"—and it certainly smurfs like a Dr. Luke / Bonnie McKee banger. Is it our "Ooh La La"? Smurf below. UPDATE: No, it's not. It's a 2-year-old song by Jade Ross . SMURF IT ALL.

Did You Hear? :: After months of rumors about Britney Spears  planning a Las Vegas residency, the pop diva finally confirmed the news! In her new cover story for Shape  magazine , she reveals "The [Vegas] performances won't be simple — they'll be a massive party from start to finish." [ Billboard ] :: Lil Wayne says his health is "100 percent." The rapper joined Birdman on MTV's RapFix Live  Wednesday (May 8) and said he's eating right and getting more [...]

IT'S FITNEY, BITCH. The #Album8Promo has just begun (having its fun).

Fitney. Fierceney. Fabulousney: The Holy Spearit is lookin' both (A) hot as fire (B) cold as ice on the cover of Shape , officially [...]
