I can’t believe that Britney Spears’ new album Circus is ready to hit stores this December! I have been waiting with great anticipation for this to come out. I love Brit Brit.

To celebrate Miss Spears’ 27th birthday, her label is releasing her 6th studio album on her birthday, December 2.

The Outsyders produced the album’s first single, “Womanizer,” which will drop September 22. Some other producers and writers from the album include Dr. Luke (writer-producer of the title track, “Circus”) Danja,  and Guy Sigsworth- who’s collaborated with artists such as Madonna and Alanis Morissette.

It is rumored that Britney will be performing on New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas to promote the album.

“They are cooking up the idea of making a big bold statement by making her comeback on New Year’s Eve,” says an insider.

She is rumored to take the stage at Pearl Theater shortly before midnight with burlesque dancers, fireworks and special effects.

Following the New Year’s show, she will embark on a world tour to continue promoting her album, which will reportedly be available for purchase on Christmas.

The insider says that the gig is “going to be the hottest ticket on the planet.” However, Brit’s camp refuses to comment on the issue.
