I haven't seen any recent candids but her nose looks similar to that pic in the other shots from this photoshoot and the women's health shoot? Idk. It looks a little plastic but it doesn't look bad. She needs to STOP getting work done. She really is starting to look like a Real Housewife. :'( </3 She looks OK to me now, but the cheek fillers aren't doing it for me. Otherwise I don't really care as long as she feels confident in her skin. I kind of agree though, I don't want her to break her face.

All these lingerie photo shoots really reminds me of Femme Fatale pics.

I just don't know if there is a market there for a new Britney album anymore. I feel like she's veered too far into the Famous-For-Being-Famous zone to have new music taken seriously.

Everything about this statement is ridiculous. Britney has and never will be known for "being famous for being famous". Is that why she's on a sold out Vegas gig?

Right, that's why Britney Jean and its singles did so great. Britney is the epitome of last 90s/early 2000s nostalgia.

The third leg has 48,901 / 49,290 close to sold out but not quite, doubt the next leg will be sold out either.

Get checked booboo

What am I actually reading in this thread right now? Honestly Britney Jean's singles weren't that big of failures. "Work Bitch" was a hit. No matter how you try to spin it. "Perfume" was a flop but it did okay on pop radio.

It wasn't a flop, but I wouldn't call it a hit either. It only got as far as it did on her name alone. The same can be said of 'Perfume'.

The initial hype "Work Bitch" got and the bumps it got when the video premiered (and when Snookie performed it) showed that there is interest in Britney and people do want to give her a chance. Anyone who's watched her public appearances and seen the amazing reception she gets from the audience knows that the public is here for her. She and her team just took that good will and effed it up.
Britney Jean was basically a case of her apathy towards her career finally catching up to her and finally affecting her music. As someone who actually does enjoy good chunks of the album, I can still see it for the subpar product that it is in comparison to her previous albums. The material itself was very demoish in nature and it lacked the polish and quality that is typically attached to the Britney brand. We got way too much Myah Marie (who was mixed in terribly with Britney's vocals), glitches, and the overall production could have been much better. There's even a misspelling on the back cover for goodness sakes. It's not surprising in the least that this album didn't click with the public. She decided to not care so the general public acted accordingly. BJ's commercial performance was deserved but certainly no indication for the future.

Right, that's why Britney Jean and its singles did so great. Britney is the epitome of last 90s/early 2000s nostalgia. She just had 3 top 10 singles just three years ago. Britney Jean flopped because there was no effort towards it in terms of promotion besides one first single and a video. But yeah that must be the reason why Work Bitch has like 115 million views online. Britney is just so over.

Britney needs to go back to the basics. Honestly while many think it's safe, I think Circus is a great pop album. It was fresh, ahead of its time but also playing what was "in", as well as being classic Britney pop and interesting variations (Mannequin, Mmm Papi are nothing like anything else out there). Drop the EDM and just make great classic pop again and I think she'll be right back on top.
Work Bitch showed people were willing to care but Britney and her team didn't really do anything to make it as big as it could've been.

No to going back to Circus-like album. I feel like the main reason people think fondly back on that era (and the album as a result of this) is b/c it was probably the least cringe-inducing of the post-Blackout eras. BJ's main issue was not the type of music but the lack of effort. Going back to Circus-type sounds won't help if the songs have bad vocal mixing, mediocre production, and glitches. I think BJ had potential. When I listen to songs like Alien, Passenger, etc. I know that there's a really a good song buried somewhere within the glitches and messy production. The effort needed to turn the demoish nature of many of BJ's songs into top quality pop music just wasn't there. I think we all prefer the type of effort that was put into Circus but I don't think its sound (or really any type of different musical direction) is going to help if she's going to pull the type of stunts she did for BJ.

Well, obviously. This is all assuming none of the BJ-type f**kery is gonna happen.

Additionally, ONTD is reporting that Britney is rumored to have a track penned for the upcoming Search Party soundtrack-- called 'All the Way'-- produced by Stargate. The soundtrack will be released through Universal.
Not sure if this was stated yet, but Universal dropped Search Party.

Circus has added some amazing songs to her discography but she's been there done that (multiple times). If she's going to take her music a little more seriously than she did on BJ, why not use it as an opportunity to grow as an artist and experiment with her sound a bit, work w/ some new producers, etc.

I just saw the pic from last page and the first thing I saw was her body, her breasts and the two ribbons on the lingerie. I totally forgot about her nose...
Anyway, regarding the production of the new album: I dream of the day where they exec. produce a record of hers. I don't know why that hasn't happened already. Seriously. They are behind quite a few of her best records, and are generally ahead of the curve soundwise. That's so true. I also want Bloodshy & Avant to executive produce a Britney album! Besides them, I also want her to work again with Danja and Mark Taylor. Regarding the latter, "Breathe on Me" and "And Then We Kiss" (the original one that I still don't know why it didn't make the final cut on In the Zone) are two of my favorites songs from her and it would be good if her team brought him back too. However, I also agree that she needs to work with less known producers, like the time she worked with The Outsyders.

Nicole & Britney @ Shop Curve on Aug 3. You can tell from her profile that she got work done on her nose. I'm not a fan but it doesn't look bad in head on shots. Her worst problem, honestly, tends to be the make up.

One of my close friends got Vegas tickets before I did. WTF.
I'm currently aiming for Summer/Fall 2015, depending on what her 2015 schedule looks like.

Lmao. Why are we now giving an attitude to someone sharing that they want to see Britney in Vegas? Anyway... Femme Fatale is honestly underrated. All those songs are ace.
