It makes no sense to randomly release it and then go away. I think it was a lead single but since it bombed they postponed her album.

it was a buzz single

The plan was for Britney to release one or two stand-alone singles while she was working on B9 and to promote Vegas.

Not really a lead single, but more like a taste of Britney's new album and I hope they scrapped it.

Lead. It just needed to be promoted probably tbh

Pretty girls was a message to ISIS to not **** with the US or more songs like Pretty Girls will be made

No. It was merely a buzz single and a treat for Britney and Iggy's fans.

It's the original lead single of her shelved 9th album.

The album wasn't ready,so no.This reminds me of S&M remix,it was random,just becuz Britney wanted to do it.
+No way they would do such a cheap video for her lead single.

You are so pathetic Running into every Britney thread with a story that's as false as your fave's ass. Get a hobby.

The army loved the video (before the song flopped).

All singles that come out after a hiatus are lead singles/comeback singles. They only get demoted to "buzz singles" by stans after they flop.

She did WHAT with her 9th album?

I wish people stopped telling me what I loved and what I didn't love. It makes me feel inadequate. Anyway according to the BB article both Britney and her manager go out of their way to say 10 times that there is no album that it's not a priority and they just want to release a few singles to get her name out there. This was before we even knew Pretty Girls would be the title of her next single. They literally told you what they were planing so why are these conspiracy theories being made up?

Nnnnnn

If I recall correctly, Britney never called it a lead single. She said so in some interview before its release. Basically she was just releasing songs. This isn't the first time she has done this.

Exactly. Pretty Girls is literally nothing more than a stand-alone single. There is no B9 right now.

I don't think it was meant to be a lead single, but if it smashed they would rush record and release an album to capitalize on its success.

She's Britney ****ing Spears. Like the Britney Spears. Have you ever heard of Britney Spears? Of course you have, because you're a living, breathing human being. That's who we're talking about right now. Her name is out there.

If it was a hit, the album would be out. Or at the very least, it would have a release date, a cover, a name, etc.

It flopped so now her management don't know what to do because they probably don't know if she can remain relevant with the younger market today (teenagers) who care more about Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande.
