Britney Spears and will.i.am Premiere 'Scream and Shout' Video on 'X Factor'

The official visuals of Britney Spears and will.i.am's new colab "Scream and Shout" premiered on Wednesday, November 28 on the episode of "The X Factor (US)". The clip, which has a fine mix of dance moves and futuristic sets, matches the track's upbeat club tune. It also shows a very glammed-up Spears hitting the dance floor in multiplicity effects. 

"Scream and Shout" kicks off with Spears' big, teased up do and figure-hugging dress which certainly erases all doubt about whether she still has that magnetic sex appeal. Black Eyed Peas' rapper will.i.am, on the other hand, is clad in bling-blings to highest level and is seen in shots of golden lights flickering away as he dances to his rap.

The Ben Mor, who also helmed music videos for Katy Perry and Black Eyed Peas, made sure to put a load of interesting scenes in this new project. The video contains some pretty cool futuristic sets and amazing high-speed cinematography such as two bottles hitting and breaking, some burning disco balls, exploding Lamborghini, a confetti-shooting gun, and loads of perfectly executed dance steps from Spears' and will's back-up dancers.

During the world premiere of the video on "X Factor", Spears could not help putting shy smile on her face, obviously feeling satisfied but at the same time a little bit embarrassed by the premiere of her video during her TV gig. Host Khloe Kardashian asked Spears how it was like working again with will and the singer replied, "He's like a big kid to work with. He's so much fun. We had a lot of fun." The two artists previously collaborated on the track "Big Fat Bass" included on Spears' "Femme Fatale" album. 

Britney Spears Shows Off Her Adorable New Puppy

Britney Spears has a new addition to her family. The new female judge of "The X Factor (US)" proudly shows off her new dog named Hannah on Twitter. "I want you all to meet my new little baby girl <3," she tweets. "How cute is she?!?!" 

The pup has already had her own Twitter page with a short, yet appropriate bio "I'm Britney's B***h." Already having more than 9,000 followers and counting, she greets her fans, "Woof!" and exchanges "I Love You" notes with her famous mamma.

As if she's not cute enough, Hannah asks her followers for suggestion, "Should I wear a bow? Mom says I'm a princess & that I need a bow." In another post, she tweets a message, "What should I chase today, squirrel or chipmunk? Arf arf!" 

Britney reportedly took Hannah to "The X Factor" set earlier this month. She hugged her pet in her chest while holding a drink. The adorable duo was recently spotted going out with Sean and Jayden, her two sons with her ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Britney Spears and will.i.am to Premiere 'Scream and Shout' Video on 'The X Factor'

Music fans have something to be excited about during the Thanksgiving festivities as pop diva Britney Spears and Black Eyed Peas' member will.i.am announce the video premiere of their new collaboration "Scream and Shout". The much-awaited video is set to launch on the November 28 episode of "The X Factor (US)" and is already getting a lot of media attention. 

Renowned music video director, Ben Mor, who also directed Katy Perry's "Part of Me" and Black Eyed Peas' "Meet Me Halfway", helmed the forthcoming visuals for "Scream and Shout", which also brings in new music from Spears since her 2011 release, "Femme Fatale". The track is also included in will.i.am's upcoming second solo studio album, "#willpower".

"Working with an artist like Britney is the reason I love making music. She loves music as much as I do. And I am so proud of this new song 'Scream & Shout'," gushed the "Songs About Girls" artist. "This is the most exciting song I've worked on in a long time," added the singer-songwriter. 

Spears also had only the best praises for her partner in music making. The southern belle said, "There are few people on the planet who inspire me like will.i.am does. I couldn't be more excited to work with him again. I can't wait for people to hear the song and see the video."

Shortly after its "X Factor" premiere, "Scream and Shout" video will appear on VEVO. Fans can also download the track over at iTunes.

"Scream and Shout", Britney Spears' newest collaboration with Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am, has been premiered on U.S. radio and can now be heard online in full. The song brings in new music from Spears since her 2011 release titled "Femme Fatale".

The track presents some impressive vocals from the "Baby One More Time" singer, who seems to be getting some practice for speaking in English accent, while blurting the lines, "When you hear us in the club, you're gonna turn this s*** up." will.i.am gets the song rolling as he spits out the classic rhyme, "I wanna scream and shout and let it all out." Another familiar song line, "It's Britney, b****," from the hit "Gimme More" appears in the chorus of the new track.

"Scream and Shout" has a very pleasant club beat weaved into the alternating raps of will.i.am and the pop songstress' vocals. Upon first hearing, the more than four-minute long track quickly shows its potential to become a looped song at dance clubs and is a candidate worthy of surpassing the success of Spears and will.i.am's previous collaborative work in "Big Fat Bass".

The new single will also have a video premiere on Monday, November 19, during the thanksgiving episode of "The X Factor (US)" where Spears is one of the judges. The music video for the club banger was filmed at Delfino Studios in Hollywood, California on the weekend of October 13 and 14. It will also be included in will.i.am's upcoming second solo album Willpower

Britney Spears Returns to Her Sexy Schoolgirl...

Britney Spears Returns to Her Sexy Schoolgirl...

We know we're supposed to be writing about Britney Spears' dress, but her legs are driving us to distraction.

They're all oiled up and hyper-tanned, like Mr. Universe legs. In fact, she's too orange all over, and with the hair, the whole effect is very much like Hulk Hogan in a Japanese cosplay outfit.

But we must press on. We must concentrate.

We like the Lulu dress. It appears to be part of a trend involving floating collars that look like they belong on other outfits altogether, but it pretty much works here. And we love scallops on everything, as they're a nice substitute for lace.

Now, if only she'd lay off the tan in a can...

Sam Lutfi Lawsuit Against Britney Spears: Dismissed!

Britney Spears and her family have prevailed in court against Sam Lutfi.

A judge dismissed Sam's entire case against the family, finding he presented no evidence that they ever did anything wrong or that he was entitled to any damages.

Game over.

Lutfi sued, claiming various members of the star's family defamed him, attacked him and breached a management contract he said he had with Britney Spears.

All while claiming she was a hardass druggie ... thus making any "contract" null and void. This all occurred, allegedly, during her dark period of 2007-08.

During his testimony, Lutfi slammed the family, arguing that Britney was on meth, Jamie Spears attacked him and her family painted him as a villain he isn't.

But before the case even went to the jury, the judge decided Sam Lutfi had no case at all against any members of Spears' family and tossed his case out of court.

Lutfi plans to appeal. Good luck with that.

Britney Spears Case Dismissed

Britney Spears Case Dismissed: Judge Rejects Sam Lutfi's Entire Lawsuit

Britney Spears' family just scored a major court victory.
A judge has dismissed Sam Lutfi's entire lawsuit against the pop star and her parents, Lynne and Jamie Spears, ruling that his allegations of libel, breach of contract and battery just don't hold water.
"I really thought long and hard," said Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Suzanne Brugera in announcing her decision, "so the motions are granted...as to all the defendants and all the causes of action. That is the right thing to do, so I am going to do it."

Jamie and Lynne filed a motion yesterday to have Lutfi's battery and breach-of-contract claims thrown out, arguing that Britney's self-proclaimed ex-manager never suffered any injury during a purported altercation with Jamie back in 2008, and that no legal contract was in place that had entitled Lutfi to the back salary he claimed Britney owed him.
"It was not a planned event," attorney Michael Aiken told the judge at today's hearing, referring to Jamie making contact with Lutfi on the morning on Jan. 29, 2008, after Britney had an emotional episode that attracted a bunch of media attention the previous night. "It was purely an incident that occurred on the spur of the moment. Whether we call it a punch or a poke, the fact of the matter is, he wasn't hurt. There was no preplanned event."
"Lufi said [he] was going to be fine and how can you award damages to someone who said he was fine?" argued Aiken.

Lutfi's attorney counterargued that, just because someone didn't suffer broken bones or call the police, that doesn't mean he wasn't harmed.
"I think if there is a touching, that is the tort and the jury could assess damages as they wish," said lawyer Joseph Schleimer, saying the injury comes from the immediate physical pain and the hurt feelings.
Britney's attorney, Joel Boxer, then launched into the breach-of-contract claim, saying there was no contract and, even if there had been, Britney was feeling pressured and would have been under "undue influence" from Lutfi to agree to something.

Schleimer countered, stating that Britney still had others in her life, such as business manager Howard Grossman, to advise her on financial matters, and that his client was never properly compensated for the work he did for Britney.
"Twenty-four hours a day with Britney Spears, I think, is very challenging," Schleimer said. "Twenty-four hours a day is a tough job."
"Clearly this was a contract by stealth if it was a contract at all," Boxer said.

As for the libel claim over Lynne Spears' 2008 memoir, Through the Storm, in which she accused Lutfi of manipulating her daughter in a chapter titled "The General," Lynne's attorney argued that there was a complete absence of malice on her part.
If Lynne believed what she had been told—that Lutfi had ground up pills to medicate Britney without her knowledge, unplugged her phone, hid her dog, etc.—then she was not guilty of having reckless disregard for the truth, argued attorney Stephen Rohde. (Lutfi denied doing these things and telling Lynne he had done them.)
Lynne "stuck to her guns" and never wavered on the witness stand, Rohde said.

"I am going to appeal," Lutfi told reporters as he headed for the elevator outside the courtroom.
All parties are due back in court tomorrow, when the jury will officially be informed that the case has been dismissed.
The trial lasted for eight days and kicked off with a number of Lutfi-provided bombshells about Britney's troubles during the time in question, following her divorce from Kevin Federline and before her father became a conservator of her estate.

Simon Cowell intends to do just that, revealing Tuesday that he hopes to convince X Factor judge Britney Spears to perform on the show’s season two finale.

In a tweet from The X Factor USA’s official account referencing Spears performing on a future show, Cowell said, “I’m gonna push for her to do something on the final. I think she’ll probably do it.”
The X Factor boss has been vocal about wanting Spears to duet with fellow judge Demi Lovato, though neither have confirmed whether a collaboration is in the works. And if Spears performs on the X Factor stage, will Lovato be offered the same option?
Another duet Cowell endorsed on Twitter Tuesday is between President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney. “They could both come,” Cowell said. “Music is a healer. Sing together & work out their differences.”
Somehow we think the only time those two will grace The X Factor with their presence is in the spoof video released last week by Fox.
The X Factor returns to the airwaves on Wednesday, Oct. 31, with the first live show of the season.

'X Factor': Live Episodes Kick Off on Halloween Night
On Monday’s show, X Factor judges Simon Cowell and Britney Spears appear in promotion of the series’ first live broadcasts beginning Halloween night.
During the interview, Cowell revealed that Spears struggled with hearing the crowd boo her during auditions. So much so, that she may have considered exiting the show.

“There was this look to me like, ‘What have I signed up for here?’” Cowell recalls. “After two hours, we had a conversation and it was like, ‘I’m not sure I should be doing this. They all hate me. They’re booing me.’ And I said, ‘You’re doing a brilliant job. Get used to it.’”
With more than a decade in the industry, Spears admits that she’s not used to being criticized by an audience. The experience was not a welcome one.

“You just like, cringe,” she says. “You’re just like, ‘oh my god!’”
Asked whether she feels badly about crushing the dreams of the young, less talented hopefuls, Spears replies: “It is really hard, but if they’re supposed to be a doctor, you want them to – and they’re wasting seven years of their life doing that – I would want to know.”
The X Factor returns to Fox on Wednesday, Oct. 31, with 12 finalists. The broadcast marks the first live show of the series’ second season, featuring newly announced hosts Khloe Kardashian and Mario Lopez.

Britney Spears, Jason Trawick Get Cozy in Elle

Pop star Britney Spears and Jason Trawick, her agent-turned-fiance, open up about their romance (briefly) in the October issue of Elle magazine.

Asked who made the first move, Jason said, “It was kind of one of those things where she moved, like, turned around, so we were face-to-face, and then-”

Spears then cut him off and said, "Okay, that’s enough information, sweetie. It was sweet, let's just say that." We can only imagine ...

The future Mrs. Jason Trawick looks pretty unreal in the mag, but she admits that there are days when she'd rather not worry about her appearance.

"I love my jeans and my sweats, I’m really just a tomboy at heart," she admits.

"So it’s really hard for me to be like Kim Kardashian and be makeup and hair-ready every time I go out of my house ... On the other hand, when you do wear those sweats, you’re like, 'Oh God, I should step it up a notch.'”

The singer makes her X Factor debut next week. Bet she's gonna kill it. Check out a few more Britney Spears pictures from Elle's shoot below ...
