Britney Spears Confirms “Blackout” Tracklist and Art, Paul McCartney Divorce Settlement Still Unresolved, Ray Davies Plans Prince-Like LP Giveaway

10/12/07, 3:00 pm EST

  • Britney Spears revealed that the Blackout tracklist that was mistakenly leaked by the Germans is, in fact, the real lineup. Timbaland protege Danjahandz produced four of the twelve tracks, while Pharrell Williams appears on album closer “Why Should I Be Sad.” And yes, what you’re looking at is the final album cover.
  • Paul McCartney and his ex-wife Heather Mills will hit divorce court next February after failing to come to a monetary settlement today. While it’s estimated that Macca could part with between twenty to seventy million pounds, the main stumbling block has been Mills’ reluctance to sign a gag order preventing her from discussing the marriage in a potential book deal.
  • The Kinks’ Ray Davies will pull a Prince and distribute his new album Working Man’s Café as a giveaway in U.K. newspaper The Mail on Sunday on October 21st. Prince’s Planet Earth was given away in a similar fashion back in July.
  • Further proof of the MP3 revolution: Download sales are up forty-five percent over 2006’s numbers, and experts predict iTunes and friends will likely rake in over a billion dollars in sales by 2012.

Britney’s fanbase is getting older, and is beginning to outgrow her. This album cover design is most likely some sort of last-ditch marketing attempt.

Joe | 10/17/2007, 7:16 am EST

this album cover is horrible. It looks cheap and tacky. she is a freaking millionaire surely she could have afforded the best designers…it reminds me of images from freddy dies! dont ask!

e=mc2 | 10/15/2007, 5:19 am EST

They should have put the Britney trash-chic painting on the album cover.

“Gee, you sound like a stuck up, over the hill, whiny snot!”

You sound like an immature, verbally abusive person. What a joke.

You’re probably a pretentious perverted old fart who lives in a cheezy hair metal time warp.

Not surprising at the Britney blog.

70’s conceptual album cover art for “real” nostalgic souls:

Prefabricated retro-trendiness for the shallow brainwashed masses. Anybody who buys this album is either a teeny-bopper or perverted old fart. Serif has a good point - the design deliberately tries to be what it is not.

serif | 10/14/2007, 5:09 pm EST

the album cover is just tacky, that’s all. nothing more, nothing less, and too “deliberate” in its attempt to become a new retro “trend” (it was probably designed by a big corporate advertising firm which will undoubtedly brainwash the masses into thinking that cheeziness is the new hot look). big deal - i’m not a fan of her music anyway…just offering my opinion about the actual design.

Basketball Diaries | 10/14/2007, 4:44 pm EST

The dark brown hair, good move.

She looks hot and vaguely rockin’!
She could roll around under my covers any time!!!!!!!

Basketball Jones | 10/14/2007, 4:41 pm EST

look at the ridiculously indulgent album covers of the 70s, if you possesed a nostalgic soul, the cover should make you smile, not want to kill someone.

It looks like Britney at 31 Flavors. So buy some ice cream and stop being such a sour soul!!!!!!!

serif | 10/14/2007, 2:50 pm EST

…in summary, the album cover art looks like it was carelessly thrown together. the design elements (including the treatment of the text) do not work at all - it’s a forced composition, as if the designer did not know what else to do with it. could it be a reflection of britney’s career? it is often best to discard of anything which is not working and start over again from scratch with a better idea.

serif | 10/14/2007, 2:09 pm EST

it could be a funky album cover if her photo was taken out - it covers up what looks to be an interesting background. the neon effect behind the text is hideously tacky - the whole overall design should be conceptually reworked. the problem is that her image is what sells, not her music, so taking her photo out of the design might not be an option from a marketing standpoint.

meglovesrs | 10/14/2007, 9:23 am EST

my 5 year old brother could come up with a better cover.

well . . . | 10/14/2007, 1:54 am EST

I’ve seen a lot of 70s album covers that were much cheesy than this. In reality she looks good. Kinda psychedic. At this point, I think should just whatever the fuck she wants. Her kids are with dad, with all his faults, I think has a really deep affection and concern about the children. Britney needs a swift kick in the ass, and good smack to the cranium

Well, with all the money and fame she has, she looks like she doesn’t have a friend in the world

That is one of the ugliest album covers I’ve ever seen.

i didnt know it was possible, britney got alot crappier. GO GET IN RAINBOWS DAMN IT.

MonkeyMomma | 10/13/2007, 4:45 pm EST

Not sure what the intended effect of this cover is meant to be. It does NOTHING for me. Her arms look too round and the design looks like something Rick Springfield would have done in the 80’s. Maybe it will pop on the shelf at target, but I don’t think Brit’s looking too good. I don’t want to see a lot of skin, but can’t they make her look like the “nice” Britney of her new video - that was a good recent look for her.

random | 10/13/2007, 3:50 pm EST

h8 the cover the others wer betr

dulse | 10/13/2007, 3:26 pm EST

Perez Hilton | 10/12/2007, 10:14 pm EST

AND THE THE NUMBER 3 SONG ON BILLBOARDS HOT 100….I BET ALL YOU HATERS HAVEN’T HAD SEX IN FOREVER!!! YOU ALL, FROM DT TO JUGHEAD TO BOZO SOUND “SLIGHTLY” RETARDED! LOVE YOU BRITNEY!!!

DT | 10/12/2007, 6:14 pm EST

Britney-Don’t burn out, please fade away, we would like furture generations to ask their parents “Who’s Brittney spears”? She used to be so awful it was funny, now its not even funny what a trainwreck she is. the least we could have gotten out of her losing custody is a picture of her as classic as the one we got of Paris crying in the back of the police car.

shaun | 10/12/2007, 6:03 pm EST

yeah, is that really the cover? I like how she airbrushed it to make it look worse.

“Wow, I look really hot in that album cover. Can someone take some sidewalk chalk and color all the fuck over it so I look like an overweight mom with two kids banging dudes in the parking lot of a Wichita Taco Bell?”

Philip | 10/12/2007, 5:25 pm EST

Andy Rourke, not Mike. You’re confusing his name with Mike Joyce, the drummer of the Smiths.

Johnny Kickass | 10/12/2007, 4:30 pm EST

Why would Playboy want to photograph her? She’s already shown her stuff for free!

Excellent - the album art is awful! The demise of her career is imminent! All is going according to plan!

God she sucks. How does she even get covered in RS?

albion | 10/12/2007, 4:28 pm EST

the freebase news is about 3 months old, good effort

Bozo | 10/12/2007, 4:04 pm EST

LOL. The new Britney Spears album is going to tank! Can’t wait to see her in the pages of Playboy when her musical career is over!

Jughead | 10/12/2007, 4:01 pm EST

Album is not gonna sell…she’s not showing off enough flesh. Also what’s with the brunette hair.

Oddjob | 10/12/2007, 3:22 pm EST

That is TERRIBLE album art.
