Britney's Year in Review: Music!
Posted under Blog, Music, Photos on December 30, 2008
2008 was such a whirlwind year for Britney's music. There is no
better time to sit back and reflect than now, with 2009 right around
the corner. Here is a quick little recap of ALL the amazing things
Britney did in her professional music career this year.
In the very beginning of the year, Britney's third single 'Break the Ice' from her fifth studio album Blackout was released. The song reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. The music video debuted on TRL on March 17 featuring a very sexy anime version of Brit.
On September 7, Britney won THREE MTV Video Music Awards in the
categories 'Best Female Video,' 'Best Pop Video' and 'Video Of The
Year' for 'Piece of Me.'
Just a week later, Jive released a statement announcing the title of
Britney's sixth studio album, Circus. The first single, 'Womanizer' was
released on September 26. On October 15 the song jumped to number one,
breaking records in the process.
Britney then went on to repeat her success at the VMA's by winning two
awards at the Europe Music Awards for 'Album of The Year' for Blackout
and 'Act of 2008'. The evening she received the awards, Britney was in
Los Angeles, where she made a cameo appearance at Madonna's concert at
Dodger Stadium.
Over the Thanksgiving Holiday and weekend, Britney went on a
promotional tour for Circus. She performed at the Bambi Awards in
Germany, Star Academy in France, and X Factor in the U.K.
Then on December 2, Circus was released and Britney performed on Good
Morning America, to celebrate her 27th birthday. She also announced
her upcoming tour The Circus Starring Britney Spears.
Circus debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 505,000
copies and being certified GOLD in its first week. The 'Circus' music video
debuted on Entertainment Tonight on December 4 and was Brit's highest
debuting single EVER coming in at number 3.
As the year rounded out, Britney made two appearances in Japan. Over
the last few weeks more tour dates were announced including 8 shows at
the 02 in London.
Britney's music always leaves us anxious, excited and wanting more.
With more Circus to come and a huge tour, 2009 will surely deliver a
year full of fantastic music. We can't wait to share the experience
with you in the coming year here at Britney's Official Site.
Stay tuned for reflections on the rest of Britney's 2008 coming at you tomorrow!
