She's so cute lol. "Britney, you still hold the record for highest first week sales of a female artist after 14 years, how does that feel?" "Oh wow."
I think she's been looking great lately, whatever she's doing is definitely making her look younger and fresher.

I don't know if grounded is the word I would use for her. Kelly Clarkson is grounded. Britney just has the adorably kooky, sweet, march to the beat of her own drummer kind of thing about her. A little Britney balloon floating about the place. Lovely.

Are you saying she's more clueless than grounded? LOL. She definitely gives off this very airy quality about herself. She's just my queen :)

Not so much clueless. But she doesn't seem like anybody or everybody else. And I think that's one of the qualities of being grounded I think.

Omg that's brilliant that she didn't know. Taylor, her stans & record label stressing all week only to have the queen sipping her starbucks whilst giving zero f**ks. WHEW ELSE?.

As much of a shitty ass mess Britney Jean was, the album could have easily had 4 successful hits. Work Bitch needed one slayful performance to really boost it into a smash hit, because it definitely was a hit already. It Should Be Easy, Body Ache, Til It's Gone and Passenger all could have been some easy and safe hits also. Passenger being the most risky, only because she's never done a song like that, but I think it would have done good.

Whatever the case is though, it still means that she gives zero phucks about her accomplishments or the industry's latest hot topics which is refreshing to put it nicely.

I honestly love a lot of the album's tracks, but as a whole it's easily her worst.

Nothing on the album would become a hit after Work Bitch's disappointing performance. That said, had them properly promote Work Bitch to smash the way it had to, Alien would be a hit 2nd single then Til It's Gone and finally Passenger as the 'risky' flop 4th single.

Regardless of the quality of Britney Jean (I've actually been playing it a lot lately), it's clear the era was cut short more due to her just not giving a flying fuck. They could have gotten a little more shelf life by picking a more radio friendly second single, but if Britney wasn't gonna do shit for it, there's not much the rest can do. You can polish a turd and sell it to the masses if you care enough, she just didn't. (Not that I think the album is a turd, but some people clearly do, and it's best not to get in that debate again.)

Yeah Work btch for the fall Alien for the winter It shouldn't be recorded holding Britney's head in a fish tank (Catchy lil spring hit) Tik tik boom for the summer hit Passenger for the fall to close out the era on a sweet personal note

Britney Jean was a perfect storm of fail. Even if she wanted to do shit to promote it, she was starting her Vegas residency. She didn't have any fucking time? I guess ill have to be the first one to say it but, hummmmm, gay face much???? Don't worry, you weren't.

Sorry, "Til It's Gone" is one of the biggest missed opportunities of this album. Everyone I've played it for, gay, straight, male, female - has said she'd would've had a hit on her hands.

Musical preferences aside, the album and the way that they handled the BJ era was not okay: the glitches, the overuse of Mya Marie, the tracklist misspelling, the heavily edited and lackluster "Perfume" video, etc. Even if there was some single potential left in BJ but it was probably the right decision to move on. Hopefully they also will learn from their mistakes and not try to pull the stunts they did and act with some integrity for the next album.

I can't wait for the new album so the same conversation about Britney Jean will stop happening over and over.
In other news, it's that time of year... "Santa, can you hear me. I have been so good this year..." ????????????

- How is 'Baby Boy' at the bottom of this list? It's one of my favorite Britney songs period.
- Hadn't heard 'Love 2 Love You' or 'Strangest Love' but this shit bangs.
- Glad they plugged '911'
- 'Unbroken' and 'Dangerous' are underrated.
- The fact that Britney fans ignore 'Guilty' in favor of 'Look Who's Talking Now' is a travesty.
