Britney Spears's new CD might allow her to come back
02/07/2007 - thebosh
Ne-Yo gave some dirt on the project to CBS's site, The ShowBuzz. He said, 'I think, judging just off the music that I've heard -- because I've heard some of the other stuff she's done with other producers -- I think that she might have a shot at coming back. If she can just get her personal life out of the way, I think she has a shot at coming back. I think that once people remember what it is that made them love Britney in the first place, that everything will be alright.' He also explained that Britney's new CD would not be a revenge album. Ne-Yo said, 'Her A&R people told me, 'No more songs about Kevin.' That's what they told me coming in the door. 'We don't need no songs about Kevin…just write Britney Spears songs. They'll be songs about all the controversy, then, you know, aside from all that, they'll be just regular quality songs. Songs about love, songs about hate, songs about whatever.'
Britney Spears checks in to spa
01/05/2007 - opodo
The singer, who recently split from husband and father-of-her-children Kevin Federline, has been hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons lately. After splitting from Federline, Britney went out on a string of benders, with some critics questioning her commitment to her children. More recently, the star collapsed during a New Year's Eve party and had to be escorted from a club. It is likely that this latest happening is the reason behind her admission to a spa, which will allow her to relax and unwind. Reports suggest that Britney is taking some time out at Arizona's Sanctuary Spa. The singer has recently admitted to fans that she has taken her 'new found freedom a little too far' since splitting from Federline and has vowed to 'take care of myself more'.
Britney Spears Tops Yahoo's Search List
12/12/2006 - thinkfashion
The 25 year old, mother of two, has recently become best friends with Paris Hilton and on-again/off-again friends with Lindsay Lohan. It's no wonder she's Yahoo's most popular search term. Meanwhile, her new BFF Paris Hilton also made Yahoo's top 10 list in addition to Jessica Simpson and a number of other highly profiled celebrities. Out of all of Yahoo's top news stories this year, celebrity news captured the top 2 spots. These stories included the death of 'Crocodile Hunter' Steve Irwin and the death of Anna Nicole Smith's son, Daniel Wayne Smith. These reports just go to show the influence celebrities have on our everyday lives. Although many people hate to admit it, we are infatuated with the lives of celebrities, which can probably explain the billions of times they are searched every month. Sadly, of all Yahoo's search terms, the Iraq war placed a mere third to some of the other celebrity stories this year.

Kimmel then surprised the audience by introducing the pop princess as the 'the new bachelorette' to the stage. BritBrit made no comment as she presented the first award of the night, however, backstage the 24-year-old was reportedly fuming. According to Life and Style magazine, the bubble-gum chewing starlet was fighting back tears and was completely 'devastated.' A source said, 'She said she didn't want to go out there,' and then 'she ran off the stage in tears. ... She was just devastated.'
