(Re)Touch My Body: Britney Spears Ignites New Debate on Airbrushing
Britney Spears’ roaring new single ‘Work B*tch’ commanded “if you want a hot body, you better work b*tch.” Now, if debaters are to be believed, the only b–ch working in that sentence is clearly a digital retoucher.
For, just two years after inciting a backlash from news of using a body double in a music video, the pop princess – who many thought was “returning to form” via her latest dance-heavy video – has now been blasted for extensive use of digital enhancements.
A fairly common practice in the industry, yes, but is it fair for Spears to receive so much flack? You weigh in below:
Confessions of a digital dietician? After a famed post-production company claims it digitally slimmed singer Britney Spears for her ‘Work B*tch’ video, more members of the community are coming forth to slam Hollywood’s airbrushing techniques.
Via our friends at OMG:
Q: A post-production company called HOAX just revealed that it digitally slimmed Britney Spears for her “Work pregnant dog” video. Is she the only one?
A: Hell no, not by a long shot. Put it this way: I guarantee — guarantee — that you have no idea just how altered the average star is in a piece of film or video.
But the tricks don’t end with her, or her slimmed-down bod in “Work pregnant dog.”
The digital enhancement of stars is a huge, huge part of the entertainment business. It doesn’t matter if it’s a movie, a music video, even a weekly TV show. Think waist. Thighs. Arms. Thigh jiggle. Nose, in at least one case. Wrinkles.”

Will.i.am Talks Process Behind Britney Spears’ ‘Britney Jean’He may be in the middle of legal spat with her former producer Pharrell Williams, but that hasn’t stopped Will.i.am taking time out of his schedule to dish on Britney Spears‘ forthcoming album, on which he serves as executive producer.
Why fans who were opposed to his reported ‘control’ over the LP have reason to rejoice today?

Britney Spears leaves studio looking disheveled after rehearsal 10/21She's heading towards some of the biggest gigs of her life, and Britney Spears knows that when she takes up residency at Vegas' Hard Rock... all eyes will be watching.
And she certainly seems to be working hard towards this goal as the 31-year-old diva was spotted looking a bit worse for wear as she left an LA studio after rehearsals wearing salmon-coloured sweatshirt that read rather aptly, 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody.'Lipstick Alley

Britney Spears Discusses "Work pregnant dog", Vocal Training & Life at HomeBritney Spears may take on a sexy pop star persona in the video for her latest single "Work pregnant dog," but at home she says she feels like a "crazy mom."
Speaking in London, the 31-year old singer says these days she juggles the demands of an international singing career with taking care of her two sons, Sean, 8, and 7-year-old Jayden.
"Once you've done a shoot ... you have to come in and do homework and fix dinner twice and it's a lot of work," she told The Associated Press in an Oct. 15 interview. "But I think as women we just manage it, we make it work."
Spears says she worked hard with her fitness trainer to get into top shape for her new video, sticking to two or three small meals each day. The American singer admitted, however, that she struggled to stave off food cravings in the weeks leading up to the video shoot, saying: "I love to eat my popcorn at night!"
And the first thing she ate afterward? "Just chocolate, chocolate, chocolate," she said.
"Work pregnant dog" is the lead single from Spears' 8th studio album "Britney Jean" - the name her family calls her - and she says it's her most personal album to date. Produced with will.i.am, Spears co-wrote every track, including a song about her split with Jason Trawick in January.
"I think it will make girls not feel alone in this situation," she explained. "When they're alone in their room and they broke up with their boyfriend, they have a song they can go to and listen to, just makes them feel better about themselves."
Not content with just a new single and a new album, the singer is also preparing for a Las Vegas residency at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino. In a show titled "Britney: Piece of Me," Spears will perform 50 dates over two years.
The Grammy-winner says she has a vocal coach to strengthen her voice for the show. She described the process as "grueling" - but says she can't wait for the experience.
"I know I'll be nervous, but I'm going to be excited, too. It's going to be cool," she said.
Spears feels it's a good time for women in pop music right now, citing the success of Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Madonna and Taylor Swift as her inspiration. "There's so many strong, powerful women in pop music culture today," she said.

Hot Shots: Britney Spears Shares New Album Cover, Unwraps Next Single Release DateFans were sent into a frenzy moments ago when pop princess Britney Spears shared the album cover artwork for her 8th studio album ‘Britney Jean’ (due December 3). Unveiled via the stagewalker’s Twitter handle, the photo surfaces as the first single spawned from the set ‘Work B*tch’ is still working to put up a fight on the Hot 100 (peaking at #12, sitting at #28 this week). But as the jets on that high octane number cool, its highly anticipated second single ‘Perfume’ has been cleared for launch granted a release date…probably sooner than you think. Aside from the cell phone selfie new album cover snap, the accompanying news of ‘Perfume’ being selected as the album’s second single was greeted with great anticipation as the songstress told Billboard it was her “best vocal display to date”. While we wait to see if that’s true, check out a personal letter penned to fans aboard the singer’s official website. See that here. ThatGrapeJuice
