Britney Spears Back In The Studio

Britney Spears has apparently decided her body wasn't the only thing in need of a little fine-tuning.
E! News has confirmed that the "Gimme More" singer is taking voice lessons and has spent the last two days in a Burbank, Calif., recording studio to work on getting her voice back into fighting shape.
Spears, whose 2008 didn't exactly get off on the right foot, careerwise, is not working on anything official, a source close to the 26-year-old comeback kid told E! News, but instead is just looking to enjoy herself right now.
"She's doing it just for fun," the source said. "She's just sitting at the piano, singing a little. She's just in there to have some fun. It may lead to something down the road, but right now this is just part of her staying on the right track."
Spears is also said to be spending time under the tutelage of voice coach Ron Anderson, who, according to his professional website, has worked with the likes of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' Anthony Kiedis, Chris Daughtry, Avril Lavigne, Björk, Paris Hilton, Paula Abdul, Pink, Shania Twain, Usher and Tori Amos, among others.
Blackout, Spears' fifth studio album and her first in four years, was released in October and sold 290,000 copies its first week out of the gate to land at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, the first time one of her studio efforts didn't debut at No. 1.

I am really happy about her getting back to work and getting on the right track. I am hoping that "Blackout" gets a rerelease or something, because I think it was her best work to date, and I believe that the album is very underrated and didn't get the attention that it deserved because of the other issues that were going on in her life. So hopefully this is the rebirth of "Blackout". Hopefully!!

Britney Back With Old Manager!!!

As Britney Spears continues to strive to get her personal and professional
lives back in order, OK! has learned she's turned to a familiar face for help —
former manager Larry Rudolph. Though the pair had parted company a year ago,
sources confirm exclusively to OK! that the "Toxic" songstress has once again
been taken under Larry's wing.Larry and Brit share a long and bumpy history. He
was the visionary who discovered the young star Britney and shepherded her
career from teen pop tart to international superstar. And when her life began to
spiral dangerously out of control in the weeks and months following her Oct.
2006 divorce from Kevin Federline, it was Larry who Britney's parents, Jamie and
Lynne Spears, turned to for help getting her into rehab.After her brief stint at
the Promises clinic in Malibu, Brit went public with her ill-feelings toward
Larry, chastising him on camera in a bizarre, disjointed rant, for what she
viewed as siding with her folks against her.However, Brit's dad has always been
open about his positive feelings toward Larry, even publicly thanking Larry for
his efforts. And now Jamie, who has continued to think the world of Larry both
as a manager and as a friend who has Britney's best interests at heart, has
finally convinced Britney to let him take over the reins of her recently
resurgent career.
