It seems that with every new Britney Spears’ adventure, we get some sort of created controversy, which can be another way of saying that her people just like getting her name back in the headlines.
According to RollingStone.com, this is the first single off her upcoming late November hits album called The Singles Collection.
The cover to her new single3 seems to be about, well, a three-some.
Check it out for yourself, thanks to Ryan Seacrest’s blog, which hosts the single.
Here’s how the song starts:
1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I’m caught in between
It’s definitely features more of a dance-vibe and I imagine that they just want to get Brit back in the clubs.

We’ve been linking you all to a lot of new music these days. Money Mike has already added Alicia Keys’ new song Doesn’t Mean Anything today.
We also have John Mayer’s new song for you.
John MayerLast night, John Mayer tweeted his new single Who Says to his followers, saying, “From my heart to yours.” It’s the first single off his upcoming Battle Studies which should be out in November.
You can find the new song, which is in the same vibe as Stop This Train from his last album Continuum, at his website.
According to RollingStone.com, one of Mayer’s goals with the new album was to follow-up Continuum with a more pop influenced album, or “a record where you could sing any of the songs in an American Idol audition.”

It’s been talked about ad nauseum and Money Mike and I wrote our immediate thoughts here and here.
Let’s quickly restate the facts.
– Taylor Swift wins her first MTV Video Music Award.
– Kanye West rudely interrupts her speech as a way to both direct attention to himself, and to Beyonce, who he thinks should’ve won.
– Beyonce lets Taylor Swift join her onstage so that she can accept her award officially, since West rudely interrupted her before.
– All pop culture hell breaks loose.
– West apologizes.
I’m not sure there’s ever been such a non-serious moment at such a non-serious awards show that has ever caused a stir in the media like this one.
Kanye West might be the music version of Terrell Owens. I’ve never seen a man cause such hate and fervor just by yearning for attention. This was his “Terrell Owens runs to the star at Cowboys Stadium” moment. And it was dumb. This I agree. But should the feedback be as hateful and racist as it has been?
Yes, I said racist. Do me a favor. Go to Google and type in the words “kanye west twitter n-word” and see what’s listed on the first page. It’s become ugly.
I posted the same live blog that I first posted here on another website and one of the first comments talked about wanting to lynch West. How can someone who you don’t know instill such hate that you would want to lynch him? I don’t get it.
West apologizes on The Jay Leno Show
I’m still not 100% certain that this wasn’t some stunt concocted by MTV and Kanye West so that West and the show would dominate Twitter’s Trending Topics. I’m now convinced that Taylor Swift wasn’t in on anything, mostly based on how she’s reacted thus far.
But for those of you who have so much hate for West and feel so badly for Swift, get over it. Swift doesn’t need the help. She’s one of the top female recording artists in the history, and her album outsold Kanye’s latest album by a 2-1 margin. She’s a breakout star who is only going to get more famous. She doesn’t need your pity.
West clearly has some issues with his security and the fact that he’s so up and down with his persona is a bit frustrating. He’s still a talented artist, but just one who is addicted to the lime light and hopefully figures out how to not succumb to it at all opportunities.
But let’s stay away from the hate. What he did should’ve made you roll your eyes, not call for his head.
