    Everyone! 3 is not number 1 on iTunes anymore! Keep buying it and let's put it back up there so it can be number 1 on Billboard for a while! :D

    Cool info!! Just more fact to add to the Britney memory. I think it would be cool if there was a class that was all about Britney. I would always study for my tests and do my homework. Actually I wouldn't have to study because I already know a ton of stuff!

    Congrats on getting to number 1 Britney, but this totally has nothing to do with that. But what I think would be a pretty cool thing is if yo released a dvd to teach all your fans the choreography to your songs, it would be so fun and a great way to stay in shape, I know I would LOVE it!!
