Girls, a new year a new uniform...let's ring in the new year with someone creating one of our iconic avatars in honor of S&S. I'm thinking one in the vein of the Hold It Against Me avatar where we listed all the countries it topped on Itunes, and ended with the Womanizer titty shake. But let's end it with:

I can give you a Céline one duca made for me yesterday
Does anyone know if that Arthur guy still selling physical singles in UK?
If yes, then that digital lead will give us nothing.
He'll be selling a few hundred/couple thousand at most. If S&S takes the actual #1 spot on iTunes and gains even more of a lead, the fight will be underway
She should really take advantage of Scream & Shout's success and release something soon....maybe lead single in June and the album in September.
My dream list of collaborators for this one would be ONE Max Martin/Dr. Luke song, M83, Diplo, Switch, Justin Parker ("Video Games" , "Stay"), Mike Spencer ("Heaven", "Too Close"), Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, Rusko and Bloodshy & Avant.
A great mix of cutting-edge pop and ballads. AC really suits Britney and it would give her a chance to showcase her voice more, since (let's be honest) uptempo dance performances aren't cutting it anymore for her.
Let's appreciate our girls accomplishments from 1998-2012
