Whitney VS Britney at Xmas
The following italicized article is from www.thesun.co.uk:BRITNEY SPEARS is heading for a head to head album battle with pop’s ultimate fallen diva – WHITNEY HOUSTON.
The clash was set up because Brit has impressed label chiefs so much with her new material.
Brit has spent the past two years shaving her bonce, flashing her undercarriage, divorcing her husband and crashing cars — but finally seems to have got her act together.
After the poor reception for her most recent album Blackout, label bosses thought their wayward artist had blown it.
But impressive demos from recent studio work reignited their faith and they are confident she can crush ageing Whitney in a titanic Christmas LP scrap.
A label source said: “Britney has been on fire in the studio of late.
“During recording sessions for the last album she was consumed by her chaotic private life.
“But she is determined to make a triumphant comeback. Top brass have been amazed by the quality of tracks they’ve heard.
"Whitney is set for another relaunch at the same time later in the year. They’re determined Brit will come out on top.”

Britney Goes Indie?
The following italicized article is from www.x17online.com:Everyone knows that Britney Spears likes all kinds of music - but who could have ever guessed that she's a fan of Radiohead?
We spotted a copy of In Rainbows, the latest album from the indie legends, in the pop princess' hand as she left Bally yesterday evening. In Rainbows, of course, was released early over the internet to the band's most devoted fans - think Britney might be thinking about following suit? How awesome would that be?
Don't forget, despite the album's controversial release strategy, In Rainbows still debuted at #1 - and made the band a ton of money to boot!

House Hunting with Britney
The following italicized article is from www.eonline.com:
Is Britney moving to Encino?
The pop star, driven by her bodyguard, spent Wednesday afternoon looking at a 7,300 square foot house in Encino. The five-bedroom, six and half bath house in currently listed for $5.96 million. The Mediterranean style home has vaulted ceilings, fireplace, fountains, hot tub, pool with spa, wine cellar, indoor and outdoor dining room, family room, spiral stair case and a designer kitchen with island and stainless steel appliances.
Spears spent 45 minutes with a realtor carefully looking at the house, which is not far from Kevin Federline's place in Tarzana. But there could be a wrinkle in the plan.
She can't buy this on her $1,500 a week allowance and will need to get her dad's permission to authorize this purchase. Her father Jamie, along with a co-conservator, is currently in charge of Spears' assets until July 31.
Prior to being placed under the care of a conservatorship, Spears had an expensive habit of purchasing properties, including her $10 million-plus Malibu estate and her current mansion atop Beverly Hills.
