I had huge expectations since Britney used to be my favorite. Been witnessing nothing but lack of Britney's interest in what she's doing for a long time. Kinda disappointing yet I gotten used to seeing her paying it all dust. I wish she spent more time practicing and recording songs with smash potential. I miss Womanizer and Till the World Ends-sized hits. Work Bitch is just meh.

But I like Britney jean and already bought the copies. At the end of the day, buying and liking an album is more important than number/ chart

Britney Spears' new album "Britney Jean" is on course to score the highest debut on next week's Billboard 200 chart.
Industry forecasters suggest the album, released on Dec. 3, might sell around 115,000 to 120,000 copies by the end of the tracking week on Sunday, Dec. 8.
That will like make the album debut around Nos. 2-4 on next week's chart. The new Billboard 200's top 10 will be revealed on Wednesday, Dec. 11.
The likely new No. 1 will be Garth Brooks' box set, "Blame It All On My Roots," which could sell upwards of 150,000. The six-CD/two-DVD set, which is exclusively sold through Walmart stores, debuted at No. 3 on this week's chart after less than four days on sale. It bowed with 164,000, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The package was released on Thursday, Nov. 28 (Thanksgiving day), and the most recent tracking week ended on Sunday, Dec. 1.
If "Midnight Memories" declines by a typical 75% (or so) in its second week, it could sell around 135,000. The Robertson family -- of the hit TV show "Duck Dynasty" -- sold 136,000 of its album this week. As many Christmas albums are building in weekly sales now, the set could see a gain next week. Eminem's "The Marshall Mathers LP 2" is also in the mix. This week, it's No. 2 with 199,000.
Spears' last studio album, 2011's "Femme Fatale," debuted at No. 1 with 276,000. Before that, 2008's "Circus" opened at No. 1 with 505,000.
"Britney Jean" is Spears' eighth studio album. All seven of her previous studio sets have reached the top two rungs, with only 2007's "Blackout" missing the top.

No one is celebrating. The Britney stans knew this was coming; it's why you won't see any meltdowns. She loves making music and touring; she doesn't doesn't seen to care for the promotional aspect.
Someone needs to break it to her that the "Britney Machine" is running in duct tape and WD-40 right now. They need to remake that machine; that starts with going back to basics. Twitter chats and 2 minute ET segments does not constitute promo.

Mathew*, lbr. And let's not act like Britney Spears was foisted onto the public whether we wanted her or not; TRL was a barometer for what the GP liked at the time and...well...the rest is history.
