Britney Spears Shoots Steamy Video for Controversial New Song 3

Cavorting with two men in a skimpy see-through lace outfit, this is Britney Spears filming scenes for her latest controversial song 3.The track has already claimed the top spot in the U.S. charts and is taken from her forthcoming album The Singles Collection, released next month.Masterminded by Max Martin - the producer who helped catapult 16-year-old Spears into the world spotlight with Hit Me Baby One More Time 10 years ago - the lyrics fall back on the Britney tried and tested sexy routine.

While the lyrics are less controversial than her last hit If you seek Amy (which refers to sexual intercourse), the song mentions 'Peter, Paul and Mary' - not a homage to the 60's folk group, but a sexual slangword for a threesome.On the track, Britney, 27, sings: 'Three is a charm, two is not the same, I don't see the harm, so are you game?'

And the video was also shot in true Britney style, with the mother of two spending most of her time grinding against two muscular male dancers in the lace outfit.She then switched to a flesh coloured leotard to continue the steamy routine, which she filmed in Los Angeles last week.

Britney, who is now being managed and mentored by her father Jamie Spears, seems well on the road to recovery after her well-documented breakdown last year.Millions of adoring fans watched her flashy Circus tour complete with big-top, acrobats, clowns and jugglers, which earned Britney $74.6million in its first 48 shows but was not loved by critics, who compared her to a miming robot.

With Sean, three, and Jayden, two, fast approaching their birthdays next month, it looks like their parents Britney and Kevin Federline may have decided it was time to update their look.The lookalike siblings, who are exactly a year apart in age, looked even blonder than usual without their formerly heavy fringes covering their delicate features.

Fortunately it was only the boys getting their heads shaved this time, after their mother previously shorn off her blonde locks during her high-profile meltdown in February 2007.Despite not having reached nursery age, it appears the young boys are growing up to be quite the cool pair as they wore sunglasses and baseball caps to protect themselves from the sun.

Older brother Sean was wearing a pair of orange swimming trunks, while his younger sibling looked more colourful in a pair of navy, orange and green trunks.They also wore silver chains with pendants of their initials on, to help people tell them apart.Clearly revelling in spending time with her beloved boys, Britney spent the day playing in the pool with Sean and Jayden.

Costume changes may be nothing new to Britney Spears on stage, but she managed to squeeze three dresses into a shopping trip in LA.Britney hit the shops in Beverly Hills where she was seen in a brown figure-hugging dress, a pink flower-print frock which she teamed with a wide straw hat and a khaki smock.She even found time try on a straw hat and buy an Egyptian upper arm bracelet shaped like a snake.

Britney Spears Sizzles In Hot Bikini Photoshoot

Britney Spears has had to battle to regain her former glory, putting herself through punishing dance workouts and hours of rehearsals.But yesterday, dressed in a Fifties style white bikini, huge black hat, and red platform heels, the mother of two looked better than ever as she filmed an advert for a magazine at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Los Angeles.

Britney showed off her trim physique as she strutted by the pool at the five star hotel in an outfit which took its style cues from old Hollywood glamour.Wearing hipster style bikini pants, a huge sun hat and glasses, Britney recreated an iconic pin-up look. And the expensive jewels around her neck and wrist completed the look.

The singer whose comeback has been sealed with seven nominations at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards looked relaxed as technicians buzzed around her while she waited to start filming. Her professional demeanour is a far cry from the high-profile meltdown which saw the singer hospitalised for her own safety.

It's been an astonishing comeback for the 27-year-old, who is currently undertaking a tour to publicise album Circus.And just last month the singer hit the stage in Paris last month looking less than svelte.Britney looked bigger around the middle and both her thick arms and thighs betrayed her continuing passion for fast food.But after weeks on the road, she seems to have won the battle and shed the excess pounds.

Fresh from touring Europe, she hadn't been spotted on the LA social scene for quite some time.

When not performing, she was frequently seen with her two sons, Jayden James, two, and Sean Preston, three.Reportedly, the singer had struck a deal with with their father and her ex-husband Kevin Federline, in which he received $5000 a week for bringing the boys on tour with her.

Britney Spears Sports New Brunette Look

Britney's ever-changing hair has long been used as a barometer of her internal mood.At the top of her game, it was long, blonde and glossy - at her lowest it was shorn to reveal her bald scalp.So, as she stepped out with new love, and rumoured fiancé, Jason Trawick, her newly brunette hairdo was bound to raise eyebrows.

Her hair was long and dark - a change from a day earlier when it was shoulder-length, wavy and blonde. Britney wore a huge sparkling diamond on her ring finger, sparking rumours the two are now engaged.If so, they could have been feathering their nest - the bodyguard struggled out half way through their shopping spree with a cart full of bags, including a broom, to take to their 4x4.

Britney Spears Goes Shopping

There's a Gap on almost every corner in her native America, so perhaps Britney Spears was looking for a reminder of home as she enjoyed a shopping spree in London yesterday.The singer stopped into the chain as she took some time out of her tour schedule for a spot of retail therapy.She emerged carrying two full bags, ignoring the fact she would have had to pay more for items here than in her native United States.

Jeans and T-shirts are generally cheaper across the Atlantic, but maybe Britney was taking advantage of the current exchange rate.In UK stores, women's jeans range from £35 - £45 while in America they start around the equivalent of £29.Britney, along with a throng of photographers and fans, then moved on to Chloe on Sloane Street, and Jack Willis on Kings Road.The singer is back in the capital after a less that successful visit to Manchester.

Whatever the reason for her confusion, concertgoers were less than impressed with the 27-year-old singer's slip -up.Last night Britney's ex husband Kevin Federline was seen taking the couple's sons for dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. The former back up-dancer agreed to come along on the tour so that the children were not separated from their mother for too long.Britney was even said to be paying him $4,000 a week to travel with her so she could be near them.

Britney Spears Sets the Stage On Fire During Manchester Concert

She had driven 200 miles from London to get there. But when Britney Spears greeted the audience at her Manchester show last night it was clear she had absolutely no idea where she was.'What's up London?' she yelled to the stunned fans gathered at the MEN arena - the only gig outside the capital on her Circus tour.

Perhaps making a rare departure from her lip-syncing script was too much for her. Or maybe an earlier stop-off at McDonald's on the journey had left her feeling a little dozy.Whatever the reason for her confusion, concertgoers were less than impressed with the 27-year-old singer's slip -up.

'If she can't tell the difference between London and Manchester what hope has she got?' asked a mother who took her 14-year-old daughter to the show.Another was upset with Britney's decision to mime to recorded backing tracks during the tour, adding: 'People have paid to see her live, so she should sing live.'

Britney made a similar slip-up on stage in San Jose, California in April, when she shouted: 'What's up Sacramento?'Earlier, there was a warmer reception for the singer when she popped into a suburban London McDonald's to buy her lunch on her way to Manchester.Surrounded by bodyguards watching her every move, Britney darted into the branch at Neasden, north west London, where customers were amazed to see her. After picking up a late lunch, she jumped back into her waiting people carrier and continued on her way.

Her current stay in Britain must be doing Britney the world of good given her radiant appearance yesterday.The singer looked tanned, toned and happy as she left her London hotel for her journey north in a pair of pink hotpants.It appeared she was dressing for all weathers given the fact that she teamed her tiny shorts with a cosy polo-neck sweater.

Unseen Images of Britney Spears Performing Topless on Video

After shaving all her hair off, getting hitched for 55 hours in Las Vegas and kissing Madonna in front of millions there would seem to be little more that Britney Spears can do to shock her fans.However, the singer has managed it - judging by these new pictures of her performing a raunchy topless poledance routine for a video.The photos emerged as the mother of two prepared for the fifth of eight concerts at London’s O2 Arena.

Miss Spears, now 27, peeled off down to a pair of rose petals for the single Gimme More in 2007, although the scenes were considered too adult for the final cut.Britney smiles and waves at the camera during the sexy performance which was filmed around the time of her very public meltdown.At the time the star was under the clutches of her former advisor Sam Lufti who Britney's mother Lynne has since accused of drugging her.

Britney's increasingly erratic behaviour lead to her losing custody of sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two, before being taken into psychiatric care under a mental health order.However she began to turn her life around after her father Jamie was granted control over her business and personal affairs and appointed her ‘conservator’ – the equivalent of a child’s guardian for an adult - shortly after her discharge from hospital.

Britney Spears Sports Demure Look for New Video

Demurely dressed in a vintage Givenchy frock with a matching wide-brimmed hat, Britney Spears could have easily passed for one of the society girls who frequent polo matches.But the popstar, who's normally seen in jogging bottoms and tight-fitting tops, hasn't suddenly ditched her trailer trash fashion inclinations for a new image.

The singer was just playing pretty for her latest video filmed in Santa Barbara for new single Radar.In the video Britney, 27, enjoys a polo match with a group of friends.This video is a major departure for the mum-of-two whose fans are more used to seeing her writhing around in barely there outfits in her high-octane videos.

Britney quickly wrapped up filming yesterday as she had to start making preparations for the European leg of her Circus World tour.The singer is set to arrive in the UK Wednesday and already has caused a buzz about her diva-like requests.The star has reportedly demanded a convoy of 22 cars so she can be driven around with her entourage.

Britney Spears Sizzles In Hot Bikini in Caribbean

Revealing her new tanned and toned figure, it seems Britney Spears has finally put her troubles behind her.The bronzed singer showed off a slender physique as she cavorted around in a range of two-piece bikinis while holidaying in the Caribbean.It was a stark contrast to this time last year, where she was seen on holiday in Costa Rica looking bloated and out of shape.

Britney, who is on a break from her Circus world tour, was joined by her father and brother and sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two.But perhaps it's the new man in her life that has her beaming. Britney has reportedly been dating Jason Trawick, her agent, and by the looks of things, the singer is smitten.

The pair frolicked in the water and Britney appears to have made a full recovery after her public meltdown two years ago.It was recently revealed that the pop star, 27, who made more than £7.6million last year, spent an eye-watering £6.7million over the 11 months to December 31, 2008. And it appears the reported $7,000 a month for bills on her diet and exercise regime has paid off.

Miss Spears is well known for her extravagant spending and diva demands but figures lodged with a Los Angeles Court show that she is splashing the cash at a rate of £609,000 a month.The singer is enjoying renewed success after a disastrous couple of years where her increasingly erratic behaviour lead to her being taken into psychiatric care under a mental health order.

The 27-year-old star, who is known for her love of 'good old-fashioned cuisine' (or junk food), has also asked for a cook from the Nando’s restaurant chain to be on hand for the duration of her visit to whip her up some spicy chicken when she feels like it.The last time Britney was in town she gorged on Domino’s pizza instead of eating in any of London’s fancy restaurants.

Britney Spears Left Fans Waiting for 40 Minutes

Britney Spears upset fans last night when she stormed off stage for 40 minutes.The singer was just three songs into the Vancouver date of her Circus tour when the stage went black and Britney vanished.After keeping the audience waiting without an explanation, an announcement over a loudspeaker finally told the crowd excessive smoke around the stage had caused the interruption.

A female announcer at the city's GM Place said: 'The building is awfully smoky. It is uncomfortable for everyone on stage, including Ms. Spears.'Please extinguish all cigarettes - this is a non-smoking building, and the show will resume when the smoke on the stage is cleared.'The announcement provoked angry boos from the crowd, who had been in good spirits until the show's halt.

Further infuriating the crowd, the venue piped in organ intermission music normally used during hockey games.After the smoke finally cleared, Britney returned to the stage in a silver dress to perform her debut hit single ...Baby One More Time, and carried on with the show.As with all her previous shows on the Circus tour, which kicked off in New Orleans, Louisiana last month, Britney lip-synched her way through some of her biggest hits in a series of scantily-clad outfits.

Britney Spears Boyfriend is Chase Benz

Is Chase Benz Britney Spears’ new boyfriend? Rumor has it that the hot back up dancer has been getting cozy with Britney, especially while her father was away on business.Chase Benz is rumored to be the new man in Britney Spears’ life. The back up dancer and the pop princess have been spending a lot of time together and were even spotted getting cozy at the Circus after party. According to Chase’s grandmother, Chase “just adores” Brit. Girlfriend sure does like her back up dancers!

A friend told Star magazine, “Brit really loves the way Chase looks, and she has a thing for Southern boys with loads of charm. She’s totally into him. And being on tour again, plus having a sexy new guy to get close to, has put Brit in a great frame of mind.”However his mother says he has a girlfriend and doesn’t want that lifestyle;

“He’s a young man - he doesn’t want that kind of lifestyle. He’s a good kid: the real deal, and very mature for his age. He’s been brought up in the Bible belt - he just happens to be a good dancer. We’re a deeply religious family, and family is important for us.” I hate to break it to her, but I think any 21-year-old man would love the Britney Spears lifestyle!

While we don’t have much of a biography for Chase Benz, we do know he is a 21-year-old professional dancer, who is currently Britney’s Circus tour. He also had a role in the movie, Step Up 2: The Streets.Chase is very easy on the eyes, and his body is on point from years of dancing. He is from Tennessee, as is Brit’s first love Justin Timberlake. Chase seems like Kevin Federline and Justin Timberlake all in one - a southern boy from Tennessee, and a sexy dancer.

Britney Spears Smoking Hot Photo Shoot For Candie's

A display of her flabby belly on tour made headlines last month, but it seems Britney Spears was taking no chances with her latest ad campaign.The singer apparently called in the airbrush experts after posing for a new shoot for American label Candie's.Her usually muscular thighs look impossibly lean and every bump and blemish seems to have been glossed right over.

The 27-year-old stars in a series of skimpy outfits in the candy themed shoot, including a pink cut-out bathing suit, black string bikini and a white frilly skirt.She has described the brand's spring collection as 'very hot' and 'very sexy'.Her incredibly thin and flawless physique is a rather stark contrast to the fuller figure she put on show during her Circus tour in Newark, New Jersey, in March.

As she made an entrance on a swing, she seemed unconcerned about the danger of being seen from an unflattering angle.And her slouched pose didn't do her once famously toned stomach any favours.Now, however, it seems Britney has other matters on her mind on tour, including a rumoured new romance.She recently enjoyed a wild fling with a young back-up dancer, according to U.S. reports.
