Nope. There have been so many conflicting reports.

 

One Twitter user (who did get the 26th release date correct) claims it's coming in the week between 16th-23rd and was filmed August 16th.

 

But TMZ and others reported release week that it was still in very early planning.

 

She did suddenly get new hair extensions but who knows?

Breathe On Moi is right though. Your behavior is weird and there’s no point in making these threads even if the song remains in the Top 20. It sounds like you’re trying to get Britney dragged.

Well maybe if you didn't make a shady thread trying to come for Break My Soul a song that's been a smash and went #1 nobody would care to make a thread about HMC performance. 

And we love Bey in this house, like imagine coming for her and on WHAT grounds?? Britney literally wears Ivy like stop. There’s being “cocky” and then there’s coming for a base that actually has common enemies and have been supportive. @Brishka is messy as hell period.

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyways, yeah where’s the video 

[nathanspears]

Yeah let's not come for Beyonce and the Hive... Renaissance was amazing and deserves all the success it got.

 

OT: Stream cigs

We are not a monolith. You are taking this too seriously. I stan both Britney and Gaga, and the monsters are not our enemies. Anyway, you must have forgotten how badly the hive treated Britney during the Britney Jean era, so they are definitely not our "friends."   
 

[Arcadius]

Baby the BJ era was nearly a decade ago. 

 

 

 

Any who back to the present, seeing Britney back on weekly charts feels so surreal.

Just so you know, when they start making threads about this falling on the charts….we better see your ass be the first to answer and fight in those threads. You’ve been really messy. 
 

 

OT: We love pluses all around 

 

As expected there is already one thread on base asking why Hold Me Closer is already lower than Cold Heart on Spotify  (the thread was made by a Swiftie though)

 

And I'm sure DMF and others have more threads ready for this monday

Please don't expect Britney to be in the video, it'll probably be animated.

I love how -despite radio trying to paint a narrative that the whole country is grieving- this and other happy/party songs are climbing on Spotify UK.

They would have made threads about this song's performance any way so it's better to front-run their narrative. 

 

The Hive doesn't pay attention to us anymore

most of them are even nice

 

only some of the Xtina stans have gone against us on HMC

even LMs aren't as active (and they used to be the most hateful)

 

 

ot: Maybe it was a good idea that they didn't release the M/v this week

but then again..it might reeeally drop next week

(altho it might stay put, with these updates)

There are far more Beyoney stan hybrids than Hive-Britney haters nowadays.

Nobody really cares about an old woman dying. Press are covering a DOA event, Literally.

How is this chart formed? I see Sweetest Pie charted but HMC has more audience than that?

I imagine most the true haters are dead by now
