It's Britney Spears' Birthday! A Look At What's Next For Her

Britney Spears remained relatively low-key in 2010. She was too busy recording her new album, a follow-up to 2008's Circus, to do much more than make an appearance on an episode of "Glee" dedicated to her.
As 2010 comes to a close, and Spears blows out another candle on her birthday cake — she turns 29 on Thursday (December 2) — fans are readying to hear some new jams from the pop princess.
In November, Spears' manager, Adam Leber, revealed that she would be recording a track with "... Baby One More Time" mastermind Max Martin, as well as fellow superproducer Dr. Luke, calling the tune a likely "smash." He also shared that the album would sound "progressive" and that ''it'll be a departure from what you've heard" in the past.
In mid-November, she tweeted about the Martin/Luke track, writing, "Just finished recording a monster with @TheDoctorLuke and #MaxMartin. Get ready..."
And Dr. Luke, while not specifying that he's referring to Britney, in a not-so-subtle hint tweeted last week, "Time to get this song out the door and out to mix.. I think you know what artist i'm talking Bout... Right???"
While not much has been confirmed about the album or when it might be released, several producers have talked about working on songs for the singer. "We can start one way and end up a totally different way. I really don't know," Danja said earlier this year. "I'm definitely gonna do my part and try to make it hard-hitting, up-tempo, high-energy. That's what I think we need, and that's what I'm gonna shoot for."

MATT LEBLANC on the verge of a major TV comeback?
Former FRIENDS star MATT LEBLANC is on the verge of a major TV comeback after taking a break from Hollywood to nurse his daughter through a brain disorder.
He tells TV Guide magazine, "When Joey ended, it was a weird time in my life. I'd gotten divorced (from actress Melissa McKnight), and my daughter had been diagnosed with this weird brain thing. Now she's out of the woods with all that stuff. But it was a really stressful time.
"I just didn't want to have to be anywhere, do anything - just be a dad and ride my dirt bikes. For a little while, I had a full-on Mohawk (hairstyle)."
LEBLANC also ruled out a FRIENDS TV reunion.
He says, "What would the story be? We all get together and what? Have coffee? It would be almost sad. It's better to just imagine what those characters are doing now."
He adds, "Friends was this magical, cool thing, like lightning in a bottle, and I feel superfortunate to have been part of it."

Also suggesting to skip the carbs, the brunette beauty said, "I love bread. I don't cut it out in general, but if I need to slim down, that's an easy way to do it."
Pointing out that ridding of alcohol can also do the job, Wilde dished, "The fastest way to lose weight is to stop drinking. In two weeks you'll lose five pounds."

Britney Spears' 'Hold It Against Me' Could Be Next Single

Britney Spears, who has kept relatively quiet since her high-profile guest spot on "Glee," is reportedly readying the release of a new single called "Hold It Against Me" off her yet-untitled new album, due in March.
According to PopJustice.com, "Hold It Against Me" will be first single from her new album and features production credits from Spears hitmaker Max Martin and Dr. Luke (Ke$ha, Katy Perry). Rumored lyrics to the tune recently surfaced on the Internet, but Dr. Luke took to Twitter to dismiss them: "I / we never wrote a song called 'don't hold it against me'.... BewaRe of InaccuraTe info kids ;-) We did write 'hold it against me' but those lyrics are NOT the lyrics ...."
Spears hinted about her work with the duo just a few weeks ago tweeting, "Just finished recording a monster with @TheDoctorLuke and #MaxMartin. Get ready..."
Word of new Spears music originated from the pop star herself one week ago, when she thanked fans for their birthday wishes and announced that her new album would drop in March. "I'm almost done with my new album and it will be coming out this March," she said on Twitter. "I AM IN L-O-V-E WITH IT!"
But what would Britney's music be without her signature choreography? It looks like the megastar is also gearing up to reunite with her former dancer/choreographer Brian Friedman, who worked with the singer on the remix clip for her tune "Overprotected." In a Facebook message, the dance mastermind wrote, "Hey everyone... won't be back from London till the late teens of December. Y'all better get your dancing shoes out cuz it's time for me to 'Hit you baby one more time...' Yes, Britney and I are back in action! Werque!"
If that weren't enough, the songstress also announced on Twitter that she teamed up with high-fashion photographer Mario Testino for a new photo shoot.

The "Green Lantern" actor and his "Iron Man 2" actress ex both submitted legal papers at the Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday (December 23), with the move coming just weeks after the pair confirmed their breakup.
Looking as if things may go smoothly, neither Ryan nor Scarlett are seeking spousal support with both having agreed to December 14th as the date of their split.
While there were various rumors of significant others and poor treatment of one another, more reliable sources indicate that the two merely grew apart and are parting on "good" terms.

Johnny Depp Talks ?Rango? Role
Taking his range as an actor to the next level, Johnny Depp stars as the voice of a quirky chameleon in ?Rango.?
And the ?Tourist? stud says the way they did the flick was unlike most animated films so far- rather than doing each voice individually, the actors all interacted on a soundstage.
"Instead of motion capture, it's kind of emotion capture, using the actors as a reference for the emotionally animated character. I think it just gives a bunch of grownups an opportunity to be silly."
Costar Bill Nighy agreed, "You raise your game because you're working with other people. It's more of a natural acting experience."
