She even visited Japan with Circus promo tour. But in US she only did GMA, but that was enough considering the comeback hype and FTR and various other advertisements. Circus promo + heavier US promo would be perfect, but we don't know whether she will prefer to promote or go fishing.

I still have hope this residency won't go through and we just end up getting a normal Q4 album release with Circus era promo.

[Toxicity.]

There will be meltdowns by a certain fanbase when/if the Vegas contract goes through. Probably by more than one fanbase actually.

[Aleks]

But why can't she do the Vegas shows in Spring and release the album in Q4. Maybe she's not obliged to perform the new songs and will just alter the setlist next year?

the best is always think the worst about her team.. the album will be released in april/may and we have to deal with it

The same time Britney is down with a flu and gets out of shape.



Does 0 promotion for the album, it flops and is struggling to go Gold



Then all Britney stans leave ATRL cuz it became impossible to be here.



Okay that way we won't be disappointed when the actual era comes.

This. And she shouldn't even bother doing it if she's doing it for the money. Does she seriously need so much more?

When Britney hits you once, she WILL hit you again.

MESS!, I guess the album is going to be in May since we don't have news of the lead single yet

WAIT, the album is done?

What kinda lightning speed recording process?

[Mr Telephone Man]

I try so hard at Exhale, to help educate those special needs children..but it's like they won't listen to reason, logic, or basic damn sense...it's frustrating. If I had us as fans, I wouldn't want to hug us either. So much stupidity is unattractive.

It's just speculation at this point because it is rumored that she will start her Vegas residence late spring and she would most likely perform new material in her shows so.......

Educate them about what might I ask?

Because don't even bother convincing them about supporting the residency cause they are stubborn as hell.

[Rico Shameless v2]

When did Entertainment Weekly become inaccurate? The album will be out in Spring. The residency will go through. I'm personally excited for the progression of her career, it's exciting. And of course I'm overly excited to get new music sooner than expected. Obviously, we'd like a 4th quarter release because it's "safer" in terms of her selling power.

But ultimately, I don't really care about being 'embarrassed' on ATRL as a fanbase because she doesn't smash. She will regardless. 'Femme Fatale' had longevity up until "I Wanna Go" ruined the album's reputation. If the music's good, it will sell. I also don't think some of you are grasping the idea of the residency. Acting like she just won't have ANY time to do anything.

They think she is performing for two years, with no breaks. They act like her performing two years, mind you 80 nights out of 730 days, for ONLY $120 Million is beneath her. Yeah because that $64 Million she earned in 2010,through a 9 month, 97 date Circus Tour trekking all over the world, with endorsement deals, and music royalties, is so much more than that.

It's like use ****ing logic.

Celine "2nd Best Selling Female Of All Time" Dion got $100 Million for 3 years , I'm sure she is even seething right now

i really wanna see Britney > Justin on the official charts

[Ozzy8923]

Well, yeah, some of y'all shouldn't be worrying about being embarrassed on ATRL. Stupid. Now, let's look at the bright side:
-THE MOMENTUM. Scream & Shout is her biggest hit WW in the last 5 yrs. That's amazing for to capitalize on this and start a brand new era and gain predominance in the UK and Germany and France, where she really needs it.
- This isn't FF. This album wasn't one that was scrapped last minute like FF was in an effort for Jive to get some coins.
- The residency will perform better than a WW tour. Y'all should be damn happy she's allowing for demand to grow for her next WW show because this isn't permanent. It's only 2 yrs. With this, her next tour can really do well and do way better than the FFT. As a fan, I'd hate to see her tour sales plummet because she's touring WW so soon after her last show.
- Sales were never going to be amazing. Do you guys really expect above 400K for the next album opening week EVEN in Q4? This isn't 2008. We'd be lucky with 250K-300K. That's one hell of a solid debut in this market.
- We can say May. That's a pretty good time. If it was in March, the single would of been released right around now and announcements would of been made. May is a good release time. Sure, it's a bit earlier than expected but hardly anything to fuss over.
- We got Danja and Hit-Boy. Bloodshy & Avant are a possibility too and Luke and Max can handle the smashes.

Feel better? I do.

[Aleks]

Wait a sec.. How did 'I Wanna Go' ruin Femme Fatale's reputation? It's her most successful 3rd single in a while.

Those damn fools. Celine and Shania must be seething as we speak.

She's getting $$. Can't blame her.
