Britney Spears‘ new single ‘Work B*tch’ may struggling to smash in the way prior efforts have, yet that hasn’t quelled the anticipation for its parent album.

Due in stores on December 3rd, little else beyond that fact has been shared about the LP.

However, that all changed moments ago during the 31-year old’s visit to London’s Capital FM radio.

There, the megastar shared what her millions of fans have waited in anticipation of — the album’s title.

In the August of this year, ‘Use Your Heart’ producer Pharrell Williams launched the ‘I Am Other’ YouTube channel as part of the company’s $100 million original channel venture.

Upon learning of the channel, rival producer Will.i.am issued a cease and desist letter to the ‘Blurred Lines‘ maestro, ordering him to stop using the ‘I Am Other’ name, claiming that he owned the rights to the ‘I Am’ title.

It was then, after exposing the letter Will had initially denied issuing him, that Williams stepped into the legal ring with the hit maker, engaging in a legal spar that’s taken a very ‘catty’ turn this week.

How?

Toni Braxton and Babyface blend their A-star talents together for upcoming album ‘Love, Marriage & Divorce’.

Preceded by Urban radio hit ‘Hurt You’, the album -which is billed as a musical drama-saw its accompanying cover unwrapped earlier today.

Due on November 25th, the project marks the first time the pair have sung on a record together in over 20 years, and 13 since they collaborated in any capacity (on Braxton’s 2000 LP ‘The Heat’). Prior to the then, the duo cooked up chart landmarks such as ‘Breathe Again’ and ‘You’re Making Me High’.

Speaking to ESSENCE, Toni said of their new album:

“I think because Babyface and I have both gone through divorces, we can relate and we can collaborate together on this topic and make it so others who have gone through this situation can relate”.

********

Having heard a sizeable amount of the album, we’re oh so amped for the full course. Fans of the pair will be elated to note that the project isn’t the standard run-of-the-mill duet LP. It’s a qualitative, sonically rich, and a stellar addition to their respective catalogues. Very grown and sexy. We can’t get enough of a track titled ‘Steam’. Remember where you read that first!

Eight years after watching his ‘Unpredictable’ second album shift 597,000 units in its first week of release, Jamie Foxx  dishes on the secret to his success in his spread with American’s Media‘s ‘Men’s Fitness’.

Music and movies. Movies and music. Jordin Sparks has been über busy of late.

The singer-actress continues to juggle her passions – most recently nabbing the role of Alice in gripping drama ‘The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete’ (which is playing in movie theaters now).

We caught up with the ‘Battlefield’ songbird to discuss the flick (which co-stars Jennifer Hudson), as well her new album, Jason Derulo, and much more.

Cop a gander of Christina Aguilera!

The ‘Let There Be Love’ singer looked like freshly-printed money when she visited The Queen Latifah Show recently.

32-year-old Xtina stopped by the hit show to chat about the latest season of The Voice and her Hunger To Hope charity efforts.

Look out for the episode this week.

***********

It’s amazing to see Christina championing such a worthy cause – especially as her philanthropic activity is so underrated. That said, we’re oh so ready for her to pair her smoking new look with equally hot material. And soon too.

The masses may have forgotten about ‘Lotus’ (pours out a drop of liquor), but they haven’t forgotten that it’s been forever since she had a (solo) hit. A precarious position to be in, if we must say.

So, here’s hoping Xtina locks herself in a studio with Max Martin, Sia, Claude Kelly and the like and cranks out more ‘Your Body’s, ‘Let There Be Love’s, and ‘Blank Page’s. Because, like millions the world over, we’re thirsty for new Christina! She’s one of the few artists who doesn’t have a “bad” album in her discography, hence we’re oh so ready for the next!

Your thoughts?

It didn’t come when you wanted it, but oh is it right on time.

Mariah Carey‘s long-awaited follow-up to Spring hit ‘#Beautiful’ has been long-overdue. So much so, that we wondered whether the track or its parent album ‘The Art Of Letting Go’ would ever see the light of day.

Fret not, Lambs. For, the diva extreme has revealed the LP’s title track is the latest single to be lifted from the serially delayed set; with its release coming sooner than one might think.
