Brit to Aerobics Class: Get to Steppin'!

The following italicized article is from www.tmz.com:

Britney Spears got her bump and grind on at a Bally health club yesterday - but not before tossing out a room full of aerobicizers.

We're told participants in the regularly scheduled exercise class were majorly PO'd that they got the boot. Gym staff tried to console the electrolyte-heavy crew with free t-shirts and water bottles - some of which literally were thrown back at them.

TMZ spoke with Bally's Chief Marketing Officer John Wildman who admitted that booting regulars for Spears was their fault -- someone at the gym double booked the room. He tells us "it will never happen again," and says members were offered access to other programs the gym offered.

Feel the burn!

A New Britney Album For '08?

WOOT! WOOT! The great Britney Spears news continues to come from her camp as People magazine reports that Britters has begun the initial stages of work on a follow-up album to her 2007 disc Blackout ... at least, according to producer and former flame JR Rotem:

Britney Spears is back in the recording studio with J.R. Rotem and Sean Garrett, the producers confirm to PEOPLE. "She's great," Rotem told PEOPLE at the BMI Pop Awards in Beverly Hills on Tuesday. "She's like a master at what she does. She's a lot more experienced than most people. She just has the 'it' factor that not every artist has. So it's always nice to work with her." Although Rotem, who briefly dated Spears in 2007, would not reveal any details of the project, a Spears family source tells PEOPLE that the pop star is in the early stages of a follow-up to her last album Blackout, which was released last October. "Britney is in the experimental stages of a new album," says the source. "She's trying to find the sound and direction she wants to go in, but nothing is set in stone just yet. She has been playing the piano a lot and just singing. She says she misses 'just singing.'" Producer Sean Garrett was mum on specifics but says that he and Spears, 26, have "a few things in the works." ... A rep for Spears's record label had no comment.

This is amazing news ... but to be completely honest, I was hoping that Britters might be a little further along on her new album than just "early stages". I hope that the producers are just play coy about how much work has been done since we've seen that Britney has been hanging out in recording studios for months now. I am holding out hope that Britney will release a new album this Fall and will get back on the schedule of a releasing a new album each year. If you consider how great Blackout turned out considering the mental state she was in last year, then this new album has the potential to be an absolute killer -- and then a tour?! Wee! I can't wait!!!

Only Larry Rudolph knows for sure!

We caught Britney Spears swinging by Bally yesterday afternoon for her daily workout regimen. Of course, Brit's visit wasn't all pleasure - as soon as we saw her manager Larry show up, we knew she was gettin' down to business, too!

But whatever the two talked about, it clearly didn't bother Britney - in fact, the pop princess left with one of the biggest smiles we've seen on her face in recent months! Might she have been strategizing for her comeback with Larry? Or could she still be in "vacation mode"?

Britney: Getting Back to Basics

The following italicized article is from www.eonline.com:

Ah, nothing like a little R&R to help prepare an embattled pop star face the paparazzi crush that comes with going out in public.

Back from her minivacation at Mel Gibson's house in Costa Rica, Britney Spears quickly made up for lost opportunities to spend her $1,500 weekly allowance (and more) with a little shopping excursion.

For about an hour on Wednesday, the "Gimme More" singer shopped at the Lisa Kline store on L.A.'s trendy Robertson Boulevard, picking out items from both the women's boutique and the kids' store across the street.

"She was with her assistant and bodyguard," an eyewitness tells E! News. "She was really nice, as usual, and she looks great."

Britney spent $4,900 in total. But how did her shopping bucks break down? Keep reading for the answer!

While she dropped $4,000 in the women's store, she made sure to pick up goodies for sons Sean Preston and Jayden as well, spending another $900 at Lisa Kline Kids.

By the time Brit was ready to leave, a mob of more than 30 photographers had gathered outside, yelling her name.

"She walked out kind of expressionless," an observer tells E! News. "She is just used to all the photographers and their commotion."

Careful, Brit. If you start to mellow out and begin to take all the relentless attention for granted, it might very well go away.

Oh, who are we kidding?

JR Calls Britney a "Master"

The following italicized article is from www.tmz.com:

There are a lot of things you might call Britney Spears. "Master" is probably not one of them.

But music producer J.R. Rotem – former paramour of and current musical collaborator with BritBrit – says that's exactly what she is. "She's a lot more experienced than most people. She just has the 'it' factor that not every artist has," he gushes to People.

This is by way of saying that Spears is "in the experimental stages of a new album ... She's trying to find the sound and direction she wants to go in," according to a source.
