  18. Jer February 2, 2011

    can’t wait to hear this. the cover is fine but the title is fire.

  19. black February 2, 2011

    what is britney slaying????
    the single fell so far from the #1 spot it wasnt even funny….

  20. tumay February 2, 2011

    Cmon that single broke many records

  21. Christian February 2, 2011

    I personally love the album covet. ALL of Britney’s album covers has always been easy and simple. So I’m not surprised. As for the name of the album – I have a feeling this is gonna be a confident, cocky, bold, aggressive, etc type of album. I’m excited 🙂

  22. MissImpartial February 2, 2011

    I THINK THIS ALBUM IS GOING TO BE MUCH BETTER THAN CIRCUS.
    SOMEHOW THE ALBUM TITLE GIVES ME THE VIBE THAT THE ALBUM IS GOING TO BE MORE GRITTIER , AGGRESSIVE AND LESS POP.

    I HOPE DANJA IS ON THE ALBUM AS HE PRODUCES THE BEST TRACKS FOR BRIT AND SHE HAS THE SWAGGER AND CONFIDENCE.

    FEMME FATAL > JAMES BOND BAD ASS VIXEN

    AND I LOVE THE WAY SHE PUT THE NO7 AS IN HER 7TH ALBUM.

  23. KAT DELUNA FAN February 2, 2011

    Grenade is number in the world single chart
    Doo wops and hooligans is number one in the world chart so What do you talkin about?

    I want to see the pic.The album title is in french 0.o ?waow huge sell in France for sure

  24. Stoney-Brie February 2, 2011

    BOOM! THE B**** IS BACK! LOL

  25. Ariana February 2, 2011

    I would have loved to see her performing at the Grammys!
    Even though I don’t like her hair at all I think she looks fierce on the cover!

  26. Christian February 2, 2011

    @ Black – it doesn’t matter if her how long her song stayed at #1, what matters is the fact it did go #1. By all the records that she broke during the songs first week release shows people are still interrsted in Britney and hell. Het continious record breaking and huge GLEE ratings, the public is still fascinated with this woman. Whether you abd possibly want to believe it or not, this woman isnt going NO WHERE for a long time. So all this constant bickering between fans/non fans, etc is just ridiculous. Also Britney is still getting heavy amount of radio airplay. I’m sure she will soon be #1 on the pop chart. 🙂

  27. KASEY JR. February 2, 2011

    People, this is nothing new for Britney. All of her album covers are basic as s***. Her best one was the album w/ “I’m a S**** 4 U”

  28. Yellow Gorillah February 2, 2011

    I’M SORRY BUT THIS ALBUM COVER LOOKS A HOOOOOOT MESSSSS

    I LOVE THE TITLE BUT THE COVER GURRRRRL ——> NO

    BRITNEY WILL STILL SLAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I’M EXCITED FOR HER! #DontHoldItAginstHer

    I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S ALREADY TRENDING ON TWITTER SHE IS SUCH A BAD B****

    *RihannaNavy Remember to go buy s&m*

  29. KYLE February 2, 2011

    LMFAO NUMBER 1 TRENDING TOPIC ON TWITTER!!!! NOT SURPRISED, EVERYONE IS ANTICIPATING THIS ALBUM. THIS IS GOING TO BE BLACKOUT 2.0

  30. Nichole February 2, 2011

    The title is AWESOME, but I’m not feeling the cover. There is something about it, that is off to me.

  31. Tyrell February 2, 2011

    SHE’S BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!LOL.ITS BRITNEY B******!!

  32. Nichole February 2, 2011

    As for what Britney is slaying, the naysayers are just pressed because their faves could never have a #1 song that broke many major records including tying two with Mariah with ZERO PROMO. And don’t even try to tell me that HIAM was promoted because it wasn’t.

    The only reason there was an iTunes banner was because iTunes was the only spot that was exclusively selling the song, therefore, people were given a heads up.

    HIAM will continue to fall down the charts, because there is zero promo for the song. Even so, the song slayed big time and stay pressed because your faves could never do something like this.

  33. MissImpartial February 2, 2011

    I ALSO AGREE THAT THE COVER IS HORRIBLE I MEAN EVEN THE BLACKOUT COVER WAS BETTER.

    I REMEMBER THAT HER MANAGER SAID IT IS GOING TO BE SPECTACULAR AND IF HE MEANT THIS THEN I DON’T WANT TO SEE THE BAD PICS.

    THIS SCREAMS AS IF BRITNEY DID IT BY HERSELF BUT AS LONG AS THE MUSIC IS GOOD IT IS NOT A BIGGY.

  34. tumay February 2, 2011

    Now I must be honest, I’d have prefered the HAIM cover to be the one of her album and this one for the single.

  35. Chickitass. February 2, 2011

    Not hating it;s going to be great but she needs a new weave,

  36. F*CK A GRAMMY February 2, 2011

    NICE TITLE!

    CANT SEE THE PIC??

    I WOULD MUCH RATHER HEAR BRITNEY THEN KE$HA & RIHSCARY ASS RED WIG!

  41. BEYONCE/GAGA WHO?? February 2, 2011

    What is a Beyonce and a Gaga?

  42. Sade February 2, 2011

    Yeah I love Danja some of my fav Britney songs he produced (Get naked, freakshow, kill the lights and blur).

  43. Ludovic Vionnet February 2, 2011

    LMFAO that sucks even if im french I hate this stupid title you re no longer a femme fatale old big b**** but I still luv u

  44. Love February 2, 2011

    I like the cover and the title of the new album. She looks s*** and determined to bring it it’s all in her eyes. Go Britney!

  45. beyoncethebest February 2, 2011

    BEYONCE IS COMING …………WATCH OUT

  46. MaZ February 2, 2011

    I like both Cover and Title!

  47. holy spearit February 2, 2011

    the cover is lazy and uninspired, the title is generic and she looks like her 2007 Gimme More performance. It will still slay but it’s just lazy smh

  48. Royalkev February 2, 2011

    I like the title. The picture is cute, but it could have used some extra umph. Both are good, but not great. I definitely would like to see her bring it more this era. I know Danja doesn’t disappoint, he’s so underrated. I’m sure there’s some fire on that track. I still want Dorothy to kill the wicked witch this year! It should’ve happend when Xtina dropped Bionic last year, but good things come to those who wait. We’re counting on you, Britney!

    Check out my blog: Thepagewithroyalkev.b*******.com (where there’s a place for EVERYTHING and EVERYTHING has it’s place).

  49. JohnVidal February 2, 2011

    Absolutely uninspired mess!
    The cover is like she used it a thousand times before but the worst thing is the title. Not original, not exciting, not nothing.
    And not that if it were great it would have been cos of her talent but still… It is supposed to be expected better things from the big marketing department her label uses to promote this untalented and lazy girl. Girl you are like 30 now… femme fatal??! Britney fans must be the most superficial b****** ever next to Rihanna ones. Í almost included Bey fans on this level cos they are delusional as hell but I´m not going to do it cos at least their idol has talent, not the best at all but has something (apart from the lying thing of course)
    Gaga is going to slay her so badly USA and worlwide

  50. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    @JohnVidal, Keep beyondslay of your mouth becuz hopefully ya fav can keep up with Britney and stop dropping those songs with all those instruments blocking her vocals and overly expose videos to block the lack of performance wise and stop trying have the LGBT community on side just so she can sell & top the charts did I miss anything

    #beyondslay2011

  51. FUTURESTARdelux February 2, 2011

    Great title and i’m sure the music is gonna slay but i’m not really feeling the cover. It’s ok for a single cover but too basic for an album cover, it’s basically the “HIAM” cover all over again. But whatever It’s Britney’s 6th No1 album haters will stay mad and pressed.

    As if Gaga is gonna shut Britney down… Gaga never had a No1 album and her last album only sold 1.8m more than Circus with Gaga on publicity/promotion overdrive and Britney doing hardly any. With Britney gearing up for propper promotion this era Gaga can’t touch her.

  52. okkk February 2, 2011

    Oh Britney, cant wait!!!

    I must say the cover is kind of boring, IMO

  53. ICON February 2, 2011

    OMG THIS LOOK SO MUCH LIKE HIAM COVER!!!!!! Such a stunning album title but dull cover. Classic Britney she’s always hit and miss.

  54. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    Plaz Britney don’t do an “Womanizer” video, let’s see some color background with straight raw choreography or something, I don’t want see u slogging down any male models, #XTINA, I just want to see some pure from the heart dancing plazzz, this year is about talent not generic talent *Rihanna* we need a big comeback and let these b****** know that you want the top spot even tho it’s beyond tooking with Beyonce there at a stand still #thatisall I need artist to bring it this year we need TALENT

  55. Miguel February 2, 2011

    Femme Fatale —> EPIC!

    March 2011

    Best Britney cover!

  56. X_POSED99 February 2, 2011

    Something about Brit Brit’s eyes says she’s a full conservatorship issue!! She’s not mentally right and was forced to do this to fund papa’s salary and the lawyers.

  57. BREEZYTHEBEST February 2, 2011

    ICON

  58. jay February 2, 2011

    love the album cover and name, she looks really fresh and beautiful, and the name is very original and not gimmicky

  59. Auntie Jackie February 2, 2011

    THE B**** PUTS H*** TO BED.

    She doesn’t need a crazy looking cover.

  60. Christian February 2, 2011

    @ X_Posed99- Even though Brit is still under theconservatorship, I don’t think she is being forced to make music just to pay off her lawyers and to pay her dad. Britney has money coming out of her ass. Lol She still made money during her”Blackout” Era without even touring. So I doubt that is the reason. Britney is a grown woman and I doubt Britney is being forced because IMO if she was, she would be miserable or she wouldn’t put worth effort into making this album and Jive/her management/her choregrapher wouldn’t by hyping this project like they’ve been doing. But hey that’s just my opinion 🙂

  61. JohnVidal February 2, 2011

    @Speaks Truth
    You are absolutely wrong cos I´m not a Gaga fan. it´s only that if u can´t see Gaga has talent and Britney has none you are probably deaf. My favorites are the likes of mariah and Whitney so yes, they slay so bad your lying b**** ‘beyonslay’ (though I recognize she has talent, see I´m balanced, just say the truth unlike you despite your user name)
    And it´s going to happen Gaga is selling more this year than Britney and Beyonce. Wait and see. Though I´m wondering when is your fake favorite going to release her album, I´m starting to realize she is afraid. She will probably wait till summer or end of the year

  62. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    @Johndivial, come on now you can not be serious, your saying that gaga is more talented then Beyonce??? Are you serious?? Hmmmm lets see Beyonce tour DVD has sold out and her last has reach multi platinum hmmmm, Lady gaga live omg, did you see any of Beyonce videos?? Exactly you actually have the f****** audacity to say Lady Gaga is more talented then Bey are u serious?? Beyonce can hold a note without echoes or a computer to fix her voice live, she can dance and sing at the simultaneously while still being in poit, she can roll down a 14 stairs and b**** still keep dancing and singing without a break in between, she can tell someone there getting fire and continue entertaining her fans as if no one heard her, She can strip down to a black ballerina suit with heels on and a white backdrop and still slay, when lady gaga ass tone down all that extra s*** and stand in front of a microphone and sing acoustic then I will allow your ass to speak, when she can actually dance with looking like she going in to seizure following a high note then the b**** will get praise, when she stop wearing all that crazy s*** for some attention and actually SING “haloooooo” in my Beyonce voice, then the b**** can get some type of recognition, I can’t believe you just said she has talent, she has talent when it comes to selling & making the charts, but when it comes to music you know how it was back in the just a microphone and some sticks & bucket and can sell with just those objects then your little ass can speak, I can go on & on let me just chill cuz you young kids today, let me guess you like gaga cuz she those movie trailer videos right? You believe that’s talent cuz she can sing in a music video right, you think that’s talent cuz her moves are on point in a video right, well let’s see what this chick brings to Grammy *your now dismissed from my office* “Shut the door behind you & keep your head up” Lmaoooooo

    BRITNEY LOOKS BEAUTIFUL 🙂 & CAREERS ARE BEING KILLED BY THIS YOUNG LADY…….

    BEE STANS NEED TO KEEP IT QUIET CAUSE BEYAWNCE WILL NEVER TOP BRITNEY & NEITHER WILL GAGA UGLY ASS

    BUT ANYWAYS BEE STANS & GAGA STANS YOU HAVE NO ROOM TO TALK OR THROW SHADE…YOUR FAVES ARENT BREAKIN RECORDS & SELLIN OVER 100 MILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE SO PLEASE HUSH

    BRITNEY EVEN HAS THE MARIAH CAREY STANS MAD LMFAOO

    STAY MAD HATERS

  64. JohnVidal February 2, 2011

    @Speaks Truth
    It seems you don´t know what reading is!
    – It´s funny u didn´t mentioned a f****** thing about what I said about my favorites.
    – I never said Gaga has more talent than Bey. I said than Britney (who has none)
    – What I said is Gaga is going to outsell Bey this year, that has nothing to do with talent.
    – It seems u are the one that haven´t watched Gaga singing live without computer fixings cos she can sing.
    – Did u mentioned echoes???? That must be the joke of the century. Those are the ones Bey uses in every f****** performance she does right? Seriously I can´t. See? I told you Bey stans are the most delusional ones.
    – For your information Beyonce lipsybcs many times like everybody else.

    And now let´s go with the talent: my favorites slay both Gaga and Bey for sure but between these two… I can´t decide. Bey sings better and is great performer. But Gaga doesn´t sing bad and she writes and produces unlike Bey. In top of that Bey lies about that last issue. I can´t decide they are too different.
    But now it´s Gaga´s moment, the anticipation is huge in every corner of the planet. I suppose in the USA yes but I´ve never seen anticipation for a Bey´s album in Europe. She is probably waiting to take notes on how the year develops musically and then follow the trend at least a little bit. I never saw any other superstar at her supposed golden era planning on when to release a record just to have less competition and take less risks. Sad. And Bey outfits are so tacky and she thinks she is all fashionable. Gaga is just weird and she knows it

  65. Bubbles February 2, 2011

    Love the title!! But I simply can’t with the cover, that hair is something nightmares are made of? Why is it so hard for her to get a decent weave?? Can she not put some of that fortune she has to good use?

    *whips long, shiny and thick natural hair*

  66. Aryo February 2, 2011

    stupid cover…. HIAM cover was better 4 sure!

  67. Mari February 2, 2011

    Britney will own the month of March.

    That is all.

  68. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    @ Johnvidial, You know I’m about to say something very controversial maybe back in the day Beyonce couldn’t keep up with the legends that’s a big ass MAYBE, but if we talking about the present as in right now Beyonce will slay plenty of legends from the performances I seen including Mariah & Whitney, Beyonce will eat them alive when it come to hitting notes & soul, I respect LEGENDS all the way but if you can’t hit it like you did back in the day then trust believe you are NOT up there with BEYONCE and that’s a fact, the only person I see almost being a challenge even tho I hate to say it is XTINA or Jennifer Hudeson I dont think nobody else could come close just my opinion!!!!

  69. JohnVidal February 2, 2011

    @Speaks Truth
    If that is all you have to say after all I explained I assume u finally understood the facts. That´s great. Only one thing now, u have to compare best eras with best eras, or put in other way, whole career with whole career. Obviously Bey can do it better now than MJ, hell he is dead. What´s the point of those comparisons?? Mariah´s career and talent and songwriting skills and voice muders Beyonce´s. Sorry that´s a clear example. if u are trying to say Bey is better cos nowadays she probably could sing with more power (not better) than Mimi, ok then if that works for you. But the truth is bigger than that.
    Plus this is supposed to be a post about untalented Britney Spears so…

  70. Mari February 2, 2011

    Why is Beyonce being talked about in this thread? The only one who could possibly come for Brit’s sales in the long run is Gaga, and we all know this.

  71. Aryo February 2, 2011

    beyonce whooo? are u talkin about that b**** who won 6 grammys in one night but couldnt even get her latest album sold about half of the numbers of gaga’s album?

  72. Rated Xxx(aka rated x) February 2, 2011

    the bish looks fierce…

    shes looking like….what it do b******?

    she is a femme fatale..13 yrs..no other broad has ever taking her spot…

    britney aint worrying about other b******..

    shes a bad bish..

    a bad bish that can sell and sell with ZERO PROMOTIONS..

    ITS BRITNEY B****

  73. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    @ JohnDuvial

    The performances of Mariah Carey for the last 4 or 5 years is a f****** mess vocally so plazzzzz don’t make me go there and I never bought MJ into this becuz he has his own path and he can’t be compare to anyone and Beyonce made $89 million in the Forbes where was lady gaga exactly, know your place, and to #Britneystans if this is britney post then stop bring Beyonce into the picture seriously, and I’m not even going go in on Britney, I’ll wait to see what she does at the Grammys becuz talent in a music video does nothing for me and that’s IF she performs Smh……

    Knowles’ range of commercial deals and products also includes beauty care products and perfumes. Knowles has worked with L’Oréal since the age of 18.[202] She launched Tommy Hilfiger’s True Star fragrance, in 2004. Knowles sang a cover version of “Wishing on a Star” for the True Star commercials, for which she earned $250,000.[203] She also launched Hilfiger’s True Star Gold in 2005 and Emporio Armani’s Diamonds in 2007.[204] Forbes reported that Knowles earned $80 million between June 2007 and June 2008, combined with her album, tour, fashion business, and promotional deals. This made her the world’s second best-paid music personality for this span of time.[205] In 2009, Forbes listed Knowles fourth on its list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential Celebrities in the world, third on its list of the top-grossing musicians, and number one on the list of top Best-Paid Celebs Under 30 with over $87 million dollars in earnings between 2008 and 2009.[206] In June 2010, Forbes placed Knowles at number three on its 2010 Celebrity Power List with $87 million in grosses thanks to a 93-date world tour, deals with Nintendo and L’Oréal and her House of Deréon clothing line. Knowles was also listed at number two on the list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential Celebrities in the world and subsequently turned out to be the best paid female artist.[207][208] On October 7, 2010, Forbes recognized Knowles as the ninth most overall powerful woman in the world.[209] In December 2010, Forbes reported that Knowles earned $87 million from January 2010 to December 2010 and eventually ranked her at the ninth place on its list of the “Hollywood’s 20 highest-earning men and women of 2010”. Knowles was the only artist to break the top ten.[210]

    @johndival

    how’s beyonce scared? if she releases material now, everyone will say she’s afraid gaga and britney will outshine her, she hasn’t even released a snippet and you’re making it sound like she’s pushing back because of a failed single neither did she give any particular release period yet, everyone’s just speculating, like “speaks truth” said, her last outing which was i am tour dvd did very well on the charts in short period of time. non-fans clearly dont know what u want from beyonce, if she’s out- overexposure, on break – too scared

    thank goodness bey just does her,

  77. kekeluvsu February 2, 2011

    Her first single is straight garbage. The only reason why it’s getting so much play is because of who she is. And some of y’all had the nerve to talk about Christina’s 1st single. That b**** album was really good. Britney’s ass is just more controversal then Christina and that is utlimatley why she is getting so much play. I don’t give a damn what none of y’all say. Britney wish she could hold a candle to Christina singing, HELL even dancing now she she Brit lost that s*** too. That album cover is a s***** mess. She looks liked she snorted a few lines before she took this damn picture.

  78. dboy February 2, 2011

    @mari

    if u don’t want beyonce to be talked about, then keep it cute, when was the last time britney’s album outsold beyonce’s?

    During the hiatus of Destiny’s Child, Knowles released her debut solo album Dangerously in Love (2003), which spawned the number one hits “Crazy in Love” and “Baby Boy” and became one of the most successful albums of that year, earning her a then record-tying five Grammy Awards.[2] Following the group’s disbandment in 2005, Knowles released B’Day in 2006. It debuted at number one on the Billboard charts and included the hits “Déjà Vu”, “Irreplaceable” and “Beautiful Liar”. Her third solo album I Am… Sasha Fierce, released in November 2008, included the anthemic “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”. The album and five of its singles, as well as the song “At Last”, earned her six Grammy Awards, breaking the record for most Grammy Awards won by a female artist in one night.[3][4] Knowles is one of the most honored artists by the Grammys, and third among female artists,[5] with 16 awards—13 as a solo artist and three as a member of Destiny’s Child.[6]

    Knowles began her acting career in 2001, appearing in the musical film Carmen: A Hip Hopera. In 2006, she starred in the lead role in the film adaptation of the 1981 Broadway musical Dreamgirls, for which she earned two Golden Globe nominations. Knowles launched her family’s fashion line, House of Deréon, in 2004, and has endorsed such brands as Pepsi, Tommy Hilfiger, Armani and L’Oréal. In 2010, Forbes ranked Knowles at number two on its list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential Celebrities in the world;[7][8] she was also listed as the most powerful and influential musician in the world.[9] Time also included Knowles on its list of the “100 Most Influential People in the World”.[10] She is listed at number 52 on VH1’s list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time[11] and is named the second most influential artist of the 2000s decade by BET.[12]

  81. Nichole February 2, 2011

    @ KeKe. Don’t shade Britney because Christina last album bombed worst than Glitter, and all of its flop singles.

    NMT tonight is no where near as great as HIAM, and that was just Christina being desperate and trying to be someone she isn’t as usual.

    You’re just mad because 13 years in the game Britney is still slaying, and Christina is nothing but a leftover stuck in Brit’s shadow.

    And you gotta love how Bey stans spread her name in every thread like wildfire. PATHETIC.

    Much of the theme and musical style of Knowles’ second album were inspired by her role in Dreamgirls.[58] She worked on the album with previous musical collaborators, Rich Harrison, Rodney Jerkins and Sean Garrett, at the Sony Music Studios in New York City. She co-wrote and co-produced nearly all songs included on the album, which was completed in three weeks.[59] The album titled, B’Day was released in the United States on September 5, 2006, to coincide with the celebration of her twenty-fifth birthday. It débuted at number one on the Billboard 200, giving Knowles her second consecutive number one album in the US. It also peaked in the top-ten in eighteen charts worldwide.[60] To date, the album has sold more than six million copies worldwide.[61] It earned Knowles the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album at the 49th Grammy Awards.[62]

    Its lead single, “Déjà Vu” featuring Jay-Z, topped the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Dance Club Songs charts in the United States.[63] and became Knowles’ second UK solo number-one single.[64] The album’s second international single, “Irreplaceable”, topped the charts in five countries, while reaching the top-five in the UK, Canada and Netherlands. The song received a Grammy nomination for Record of the Year at the 50th Grammy Awards.[65] On April 3, 2007, Knowles re-released B’Day, as a deluxe edition,[66] featuring five new tracks and Spanish-language versions of “Irreplaceable”, and “Listen”.

The song became another number one hit for Knowles, topping eleven charts worldwide.[67] It won the award for Most Earthshattering Collaboration at the 2007 MTV Video Music Award.[68] In support of the album, Knowles embarked on her lengthy The Beyoncé Experience concert tour, visiting over ninety venues worldwide, which was made into the concert DVD The Beyoncé Experience Live!.

She stated, “It’s definitely time to take a break, to recharge my batteries. … I’d like to take about six months and not go into the studio. I need to just live life, to be inspired by things again.”[93] In February 2010, Knowles featured on Lady Gaga’s song, “Telephone”. The song reached number one on the US Pop Songs chart, thus becoming the sixth number-one on the chart for both Knowles and Gaga.

    @ Nichole

    B**** I don’t have to shade Britney because Christina’s last album didn’t do well. The truth is the truth. That’s been said numerous times. Britney will NEVER be as talented as Christina: FACT. Britney is way more controversal then Christina that’s why so many ppl flock to Britney FACT.

    I find it mighty funny that heffers like you stan for b****** that can’t even sing to save Jesus on the cross. Britney is straight up and down back woods trash who only made it because her daddy pimped her ass out when she was little another FACT (watch her story or look it up,I DON’T GIVE A F***) 😆

    GOOD DAY ➡

  87. Mari February 2, 2011

    @Dboy

    Aw, you mad because I speak the truth? How is my saying that Bey won’t ever come for Britney’s sales shading Beyonce? Is my saying that Beyonce has sold more records than Rihanna shading Ri?

    Stay pressed, sweetie.

  88. Speaks Truth February 2, 2011

    Your favs actions***

  89. dboy February 2, 2011

    pressed? that’s not gonna happen cus am a fan YES but i dont stan for anyone

    u asked why beyonce was in the post, am am letting u know, if u don’t want nothing then dont be starting nothing , since we are speaking truth here’s a dose, since beyonce’s last 3 albums outsold britney’s last 3 albums, beyonce will have no problem outselling her again this era! WHAT!

  90. dboy February 2, 2011

    ^ that’s directed at dear mari

  91. MISHKA February 2, 2011

    Okay as much as I love Britney, she’s nowhere near a “Femme Fatale” . She’s still the (woman) girl next door who can s** it up at times , that’s all.

  92. Nichole February 2, 2011

    @ KeKe. Yeah yeah….you are highly pressed, and that is why you’re sitting up here all bent out of shape because Britney’s success is 10x Christina’s. Get over it, and sit your ass down somewhere.

  93. Mari February 2, 2011

    “beyonce will have no problem outselling her again this era! WHAT!”

    @Dboy

    Not if Britney does as much promo and releases as many singles and re-relases as Bey . . .

    Britney’s tour is going to gross more money than Beyonce’s too . . . with fewer dates played.

    It is what it is, no need to get defensive and upset 🙂

  94. kekeluvsu February 2, 2011

    @ Nichole

    It took you that long to write that b*******? GIRL BYE 😆

    Don’t you be mad because you know what I’m saying is FACT. 10x or more she still doesn’t have a quarter of the talent Christina has and the broad never will. So go praise the Queen of lip-syncing. Dumb c***.

  96. dboy February 2, 2011

    @mari

    no need to get defensive? am simply speaking to u in language u understand, your prediction is based on a big “IF”, mine is based on fact and correlation

    as for the tour, yeah britney’s tour may gross more than beyonce’s if her fan can get over the negative reviews of her last one, in fairness, they probably will, they are afterall “britney fans”

  97. NE-YO*STAN February 2, 2011

    Did I mention how upset I would be if Danja doesn’t place on this album!?

  98. That FLOP Juice February 2, 2011

    The cover is awful.

    The titles is I don’t know… it was used million times before in the industry. But for the Auto Tune Princess it will be good enough to sell it to little silly American teenagers. 🙂

  99. HALF AMAZIN February 3, 2011

    S** kitten, yes. Femme Fatale, no. Try again Britney. You’re somebody’s mama so you gotta try extra hard. You cant rely on your Hit Me Baby One More Time cuteness to save you from what could be a marketing disaster.

  100. HALF AMAZIN February 3, 2011

    Girl, Ke$sha gives me more Femme Fatale than Britney!!!!! Girl, get your swag up. its in you!!!!!

    WTF. YOU UGLY STANK ASS BEYAWNCE STANS GO KILL YASELVS!!!!!

    EVery f****** post turns into a BeYAWNce thread. No one cares but you 3 stans trolling every blog and forum bumping posts about her. Do you kids even have jobs? I guess you don’t when you’re in High School. I saw yal on UKMIX bumping her tired ass threads like people are talking about her. NO ONE CARES. Critics are already laughing at her trying to do another version of A Star Is Born. CLAWING her way to try and get that Oscar after being outshined, outacted, and outsung by Jennifer Hudson in Dreamgirls. LET IT REST. And i saw you hatin ass stans HATING on Kelly Rowland on Pulse again and trying to say Janet Jackson is a grandma you f****** CLASSLESS hos. You are dismissed!

  105. KaVion February 3, 2011

    Hmm I’ll admit, I expected much more from Britney.
    I don’t like the album title because it’s not really creative. I mean any woman could name their album “Femme Fatale”. The cover is kind of plain but she still looks beautiful. Same fine ass Britney lol. What I’m trying to understand is if it’s called ‘Femme Fatale’ why have such a safe cover? The name is definantly accurate though. Considering shell be KILLING the game in every way possible. I’m not SUPER hyped for the album but I’m still curious about what she’ll bring. Personally, I’m waiting for Beyonce, J Cole, Drake, Chris Brown & Lupe Fiasco.
    Those albums got me going crazy!!

  106. EDWAKKA February 3, 2011

    Stans bring me joy.

    *Sips ginger beer*

  107. Eh February 3, 2011

    Thats it? Looks just like the other one except not as good. I expected more. Either way her fans dont care, they’ll but her stuff anyway.

  108. dexclusive February 3, 2011

    I honestly did expect a more clever title, however Im gonna take it for what it is. The title is accurate though, off her name she can eclipse any b**** in the industry if she really wanted to, maybe she is more aware of it now, but we’ll see…. oh and I’m DEFINITELY buying the album!

  109. LTM February 3, 2011

    lady cant hit #1 gaga slay britney?
    now thats funny

    The single is so 1999

    The cover is a WHACK MESS.

    But I LOVE that title!

  113. KD February 3, 2011

    The album cover is fugly as hell and the name of the album must be a joke (femme fatale?). Can’t wait to hear the album when it drops though.

  114. Faye_Face February 3, 2011

    She does the same thing all the time, she needs to do something different, her music never changes its still the same bubblegum pop, shes pushing 30 its time for her to grow up a bit, her new single is terrible and if anyone else released that it would of flopped but coz of her name it went number 1, I like Brit and am a fan, but she needs to stop being lazy and putting out rubbish just coz she knows the fans will buy it, people keep calling her a “legend” and bigging her up so much but her recent music and performances are nowhere near “legend” status, hope we can see the old Britney with this album.

  115. Speaks Truth February 3, 2011

    Wow can I ask everyone something do you feel that Beyonce is not an artist? Do you feel she is just generic artist who will be a #hasbeen in the next 5 or 6 years? Is that what you feel? Have you ever sat down and watch her “I AM Intimate” Tour when she perform “Resentment” “Sweet Dreams” acoustic those songs sent shivers down my spine. It’s crazy how folks will not give her her props, she’s a black women breaking white women charts and her own race still bash her. This shows what the world has become and soon as whoever 30 years old and up right now when those folks leave this world and the 80s & 90s are the oonly ones left in beyond then this world is certainly coming to an end and you best to believe that. I can’t believe still won’t give this “ICON” her props shes a female is that why? You hate to see a black women making money of her own and not needing a man? You don’t like to see a Black independent women is that it?? Yeah thought so #beyondslayed2011 #RoundIV

  116. Jer February 3, 2011

    you BeYAWNce stans don’t realize AMONG MANY OTHER THINGS, that what you feel about Britney is how mnay people feel about BeYAWNce. She’s a product that has been well marketed since 1998. Lots of makeup, lots of handlers, lots of money thrown at the product and a lot of hype and huge hits. Why I don’trespect BeYAWNce still goes back to how her and her dad did the ladies in Destiny’s Child because they spoke up about the favouritism toward BeYAWNce. ITwas wrong they way LeToya and LAtavia were treatedand I WON’T be quick to forget that when these proud black ladies wanted to EXPRESS THEMSELVES and voice that BeYAWNce was getting all the attention in their GROUP– they were silenced. They were fired, they were disenfranchised and were treated BY BLACK PEOPLE the way n****** had been treated since slavery. “how dare you question what white people want” Because they wanted to break Destiny’s Child thru to pop radio by making thme more commercial and less urban. IT’s something that I won’t let you BeYAWNce stans forget. I don’t respect her or her dad or her handlers. She’s the queen of shade the way she treated her sisters.
