I NEVER thought that the VMA performance was going to end her career, but the MEDIA did. Obviously she proved them wrong.

They were saying that she was *over* because of that performance and all the things that happened during the Blackout era. That's the bad publicity I'm talking about. In fact the album didn't do that bad considering all the bad publicity she had at that time.

By the way, I'm a big fan of both Britney & Christina so there's no point on bashing "the artist I have in my avatar".

Well, logically we would assume that because it comes out next week...

But maybe they are really keeping this album hush hush right now.

really want to hear it !!!

3x platinum. The shipping amount of CDs must surpass three millions mark months ago. If only she could re-release this album with new tracks or even throw Radio out as a single.

She's released so many singles from this album, I don't see why not.
