Britney Jetting to India!

The following italicized article is from www.extratv.warnerbros.com:

Rumors are swirling that pop princess Britney Spears is jet-setting across the globe again -- this time to meet with Indian choreographer Sandip Soparrkar.

According to reports, Brit will allegedly meet with Soparrkar for a two-day practice session for the new video of her hit song "Womanizer." While Sandip didn't confirm that the two would practice moves for a new "Womanizer" video, he did confirm that Spears would be heading to India to shake it with him!

"I'll be meeting her for work only, when she visits Jodhpur," Sandip told the Times of India. "We'll just be doing a bit of rehearsals, since I am planning to do the rumba, which is the dance of love. Britney is really looking forward to coming to India. She's heard a lot about it and what tops her list here is trying out the spicy Indian curry."

Brit was recently snapped leaving a dance studio in L.A., where she reportedly cast new dancers for next year's "Circus" tour.

Luckiest Britney Fans In The World

Talk about the ideal Christmas present! These two Australian Britney fans, Laura and Kleo, entered a contest to win the chance to meet Britney. All they had to do was explain in 25 words or less why they deserved the chance to meet Brit (easier said then done when you're competing with a world full of fans)... but they won!

The two gorgeous girls flew in to Japan from Australia, all expenses paid. They got to meet Britney and talk with her (video coming soon) and also met Larry, Wade, Amanda, the make up peeps and stylist and all the dancers before Britney's performance on NTV's Best Artist 2008.

They took some pics on red carpet and got to watch Britney's performance up close.

Oh, and we've been getting a lot of emails asking for the dancers' names, so since it's Christmas, and the time for giving.... the dancers' names from left to right are... Anthony, Frances, Jose, Brooke, Alex and JP. :) Happy Xmas!

Britney Leaving Dance Studios After Casting Dancers

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

Britney Spears looked mostly at ease as she hit the road after casting dancers at a Los Angeles area dance studio on Sunday night.

The pop tart was, surprisingly, with a mystery female instead of her usual assistant, and carefully checked her blind spot before pulling into traffic.

With her first arena tour in five years set to kick off March 3 in New Orleans, LA, Britney is not wasting any time preparing for a show that manager Larry Rudolph promises fans to be “something they will never forget.”

'Rock Boy' Produced By Danja

In addition to the album and the deluxe version of Britney Spears' Circus, there's almost an entire album worth of bonus tracks that have been popping up on the various different releases of the album. Case in point, the German bonus track off Circus titled "Rock Boy" turns out to be a Danja track.

The track was written by Tina Parol who confirmed the Danja production via her myspace blog:

'So I had the amazing opportunity of working with the very talented Danja and Ms. Britney Spears on her new album "Circus"! My song, titled "Rock Boy" is a b-side on the album...so check it out on Itunes Europe or on Youtube!'

So are we thinking Danja used a rock sample or live instruments? Either way, track is pretty dope and is a perfect example of Danja's versatility.

Rep: Britney Spears, Benji Madden Not Dating

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

Britney Spears and Benji Madden are not dating!

In Touch reports the Good Charlotte Rocker, 29, and Spears, 27, have been hooking up -- but Spears' publicist Holly Shakoor denies any connection.

"The claims made by In Touch are completely false," she tells E! News. "There is not an ounce of truth to any of it.''

The tabloid claims that Spears' dad, Jamie, and her manager, Larry Rudolph, have been searching for potential suitors for the singer, including Chace Crawford, Michael Phelps, Jesse Metcalfe and Madden.

"Larry made phone calls, and Benji ended up being the most interested in being fixed up," In Touch claims. "He plans to make a big, splashy announcement to help publicize her tour."

But Madden was spotted with his ex (and on-again/off-again friend to Spears), Paris Hilton, twice this week, and Spears just got back to L.A. after promoting her new album, Circus, in Tokyo.

Rumor has it that Britney Spears is now on the lookout for a suitable red carpet escort, with manager Larry Rudolph and father Jamie Spears giving her a helping hand to find the right guy. Reports have linked her with possible dates like Benji Madden, Michael Phelps and Jesse Metcalfe.

Attention, Brit! Someone else wants to be in the running!

"She’s looking for a boyfriend now?" Russell Brand exclaimed at last night's L.A. premiere of Bedtime Stores, after hearing the "Womanizer" singer was on the market again.

"I’m going now! Is she here? I’m just gonna be quick," he joked to reporters as he pretended to run off the red carpet. "There’s not a moment to lose!"

The two had a fun chemistry during the lead-up to MTV's VMAs this year, filming a series of hilarious TV spots in preparation for the awards. After all, the British comedian did want to make sure Britney knew his last name, as he said to her in one spot, "You will remember that name because I think pretty soon that's gonna be your surname. Britney Brand."

"Oh, gosh!" Brit replied with a giggle.

Benji Madden And Britney Spears Dating

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

Is Britney Spears secretly dating Paris Hilton’s ex?

In Touch is reporting that Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden, who split from Paris Hilton less than a month ago, is secretly dating the socialite’s on-again/off-again pal, Britney Spears.

Just for the bitch fight that’ll break out once the news hits Paris’ ears, let’s hope this is one piece of tabloid dish with a grain of truth.

“They’ve been on a few dates,” a snitch close to Madden revealed in the December 29 edition of the tab. “They met once at The Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills for dinner in a hotel suite.”

So far, things are blossoming smoothly for the rumored lovers.

“She appears to like Benji a lot, and he seems to really like her.”

And you’ll never guess how the two met.

According to the In Touch spy, Britney’s manager worked with Papa Jamie Spears to create a list of potential boyfriends for the pop icon. In addition to Benji, the list also included Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford, actor Jesse Metcalf, and Olympian Michael Phelps.

“Larry made some phone calls and Benji ended up being the most interested in being fixed up.”

Larry wants to use Benji and Britney’s burgeoning new romance to promote her new album and forthcoming world tour.

“He plans to make a big, splashy announcement to help publicize her upcoming tour.”

Even after shaving her head, losing primary custody of her kids, shitting the bed at the VMAs, and dating a blood-sucking paparazzo, we’re still pulling for the pop tart turned punch line. The girl still oozes genuine sexiness, and if anyone can make a comeback, it’s her.

Paul McCartney and Britney Spears top "Idol" wish list

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

Former Beatle Paul McCartney and pop star Britney Spears are at the top of Simon Cowell's celebrity wish list as possible mentors on the upcoming season of "American Idol."

But the chances of getting McCartney to appear on the most-watched American television show seem slim.

"We try every year to get Paul McCartney on but for whatever reason he won't come on," the judge told reporters on a conference call on Wednesday.

Cowell said he would welcome the chance to see Spears on the show, which returns for its 8th season on January 13. The singer is on a comeback roll with a No.1 album and upcoming tour after almost two years of personal woes.

"She would be first on the list. I would love to see her mentor the contestants. But if she doesn't want to do that and she wants to come on the show to perform, I would welcome her any time," Cowell said.

He said he would also like to see Beyonce and would welcome back singer-songwriter Lionel Richie and movie director Quentin Tarantino, who was a guest judge in 2004.

"American Idol" has produced some bonafide stars since its 2002 debut, including Grammy award winners Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood.

Former contestants Jennifer Hudson and Jordin Sparks were both nominated earlier this month for Grammys.

"I absolutely love it when that happens," Cowell said. "There is so much snobbery in the music business about what we do on this show. So I think it is fantastic.''

Britney Spears: Safe and Sound at LAX

The following italicized article is from www.celebrity-gossip.net:

Following a weeklong trip overseas, Britney Spears was spotted arriving back at LAX Airport in Los Angeles from Tokyo on Wednesday (December 17).

Looking calm and collected, the “Gimme More” singer made her way past security and lined-up paparazzi as she headed out to an awaiting car before heading home.

As previously reported by Gossip Girls, Brit said that she had a lovely time as she promoted her new album “Circus” in Japan, as he wrote on her Web site, “I Love Japan! I think all the tiny cars are so cute!”

Spears’ main reason for the trip was performing on the Japanese show “Hey! Hey! Hey!” though she took full advantage of her travels, sampling traditional cuisine and doing plenty of shopping.
