Who remembers that "insider tea/blind item" about a song called "Final Girl" from a couple years ago

Now that you mention it, DMF has inexplicably been absent since Perez's episode

Did Annabelle change host?

Can you provide receipts or metrics to sustain your claims about the catalog sale boosting her streams other than it being "obvious"? Something like playlist reach, licensing, social media push... anything? I don't know how accurate this site is, but it shows that her playlist reach on Spotify has actually decreased since January...

PERIOD

@ 1:45 Here Cher talks about the planned performance that didn't happen and wishing to do a song together soon

BOMT being a 1 billion streamed song with its daily peak being "only" 1.1 million speaks volumes on what a strong, healthy, relevant, everlasting classic it is.

I want to add, since people in here are trying it, that beyond the snake, the Slave performance is absolutely stellar. Thematic stage, incredible looks dancers included, nailed choreography, a generational performer that puts on a SHOW... A theatrical spectacle.

… Be serious now

Love it but the original feels dry in comparison to the remix. That beat is just so infectious

I have to admit I've always used the album version more

There's also a Bee logo. Is that new or am I just finding out?

This anniversary release is part of the Y2K commemoration by the label, through Legacy Records, and it's been happening for a couple of years already way before Britney's catalogue sale. OIDIA had it last year and other artists like BSB had anniversary releases as well. You people really need to let that transaction GO Plus, Britney already gave her consent to this type of releases by selling her catalogue. She's retired so it makes perfect sense for her to cede her part: bank on it on advance and let others do the work. Even if Primary Wave was behind it, they're in their right to push what they purchased. That doesn't make them evil or that they're taking advantage of Britney and the only people that could possibly be mad about it is haters seeing her discography and legacy finally receiving the treatment they deserve.

Shakira sold her catalogue in 2021.

Britney obviously. Doesn't Rihanna have like twice the amount of singles? Recipe for inconsistency.
