Britney: ''Very Normal, Says Co-Writer

The following italicized article is from www.x17online.com:

Britney Spears' life may seem glitzy and glamorous - but according to one of her collaborators, it hasn't gone to the pop princess' head!

Keri Hilson, one of the songwriters working on Brit's upcoming record, characterized working with Britney as being "completely normal" during a conversation with Extra backstage at F'N MTV yesterday. "You wouldn't think that - but [she's] very normal," Hilson said. "We just have girl talk and bang out a song, just like any other artist I would work with."

Keri also dished a few details about Brit's next album, confirming that she'd be working with Danja and "the rest of Timbaland's crew", and that she'd already started working with Britney in both Vegas and LA. "I'm excited," she told Extra. "We're going to bang it out this time!"

We're certainly pumped to hear it - after all, the last time Keri and Britney collaborated on a song, they came up with "Gimme More"!

We wanna hear this album so bad!

You know Lynne Spears is dusting off the binder labeled "Brit Brit and Justin Wedding Y'all" from the attic right now.

Ok! Magazine is reporting that the two are collaborating on a duet for Britney's new album, which is going to drop in early 2009.

If Justin's ever going to collaborate with Brit, this is the time to do it. Britney and her team of producers are so focused on making this album her comeback record of the century, that there's no way it could possibly suck.

Britney Spears & Justin Timberlake: Together Again?

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

There was always hope when Britney Spears was in free fall and her life was headed straight downward that former lover Justin Timberlake would swoop in and help right her sinking ship. There were always reports that he was thinking about trying to meet with Britney and help her, but they never really seemed to pan out.

Now Britney is getting her life together and although she is probably boring the paparazzi agencies around Los Angeles with her new toned down life it means she might be able to revive her career in music. Can Justin step in now and make that happen?

He might just be able to do that now. "Britney Spears is getting a helping hand from an ex-flame," a new report suggests that will be published this week by OK! Magazine. The magazine claims that ESPY host Justin Timberlake will record a duet for her new album, OK! reveals exclusively in this week's magazine.

OK! also promises to take a closer look at Britney’s custody settlement over her sons, and why her shocking decision is helping her get her life back on track.

Paps Busted for Loitering Near Casa Spears

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

Even if you're standing where there's only the possibility of a fire, you can still get burned.

Two paparazzi on Britney Spears watch were arrested Monday after ignoring a police warning about being illegally parked on a city-owned fire access road near the pop star's Studio City home.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, officers spotted Alexander Passos and Eduardo Ravalha, both 35, parked in a restricted area at about 6 p.m.

They were arrested about 45 minutes later when, upon returning to the site, the cops found that the gentlemen had neglected their suggestion to get their shutterbug jollies elsewhere.

Ravalha's car was towed and impounded, pretty much putting the kibosh on any good tailing action for the night, and both men were booked at North Hollywood Station on suspicion of loitering. They were released later that evening.

Earlier this month, the LAPD received a tip that someone had swiped (or perhaps simply tossed in some nearby bushes) a "No Trespassing" sign that's supposed to be posted on a chain-link fence near where the paps were busted.

All of which seems to reinforce Spears' decision to clear out of the area.

Last month, the court commissioner presiding over the attention magnet's conservatorship saga granted her permission to put her Mulholland Drive-adjacent mansion up for sale.

Her estate had filed a motion stating that the 26-year-old mother of two was in need of a home in a "lower density, more quiet and less trafficked neighborhood, that is also more accessible to parks and recreation areas."
