Former teenage star Britney Spears called her sixth album Circus. A striking title that may relate to the media circus that arose around her when she was quite lost and a photo of a partying Britney without underwear brought in more money than her singles. But the title can also refer to the extravagant circus which she invariably sets up in her video clips, in which she explores the boundaries of
… prudish American taste with great exposure. Regarding the first is the news about the release of Circus that Brit is clean, under strict tutelage of her father, is reclaiming her deprived children and is herself (alone) in bed around half past nine. Regarding the second, little has changed. Or it must be that the newly released video clip of the single Womanizer looks more routine than erotic. And that actually applies to the entire album full of tight, white R&B that Spears gasps and groans through as the teenage star of yesteryear. Nothing wrong with that, but it hardly causes any sensation. Maybe she should get out again in the evening. (MR)more
