Like the spinx, Britney Spears is trying to rise from the ashes.
The pop singer released a new album called Circus last week, with a cover reminiscient of the old school Britney. She looks pretty and poses suggestively, yet she doesn't look slutty, and the background colors also exude feminity and innocence.
It's a far cry from the tight outfit and falling-out breasts that we would've expected from the party girl who got married on a whim in Las Vegas. But since those days, Britney has also suffered a tumultuous relationship, a baby, and a string of bad P.R. innocents, which produced some nasty headlines.
Certainly, people rolled their eyes at her kissing Madonna and shaving her head, but Britney never faded from the spotlight, and millions of people are still buying her music, with Circus hitting no. 1 on the charts this week.
But her outfit on the album cover suggests she doesn't want to be known as a wild child, but rather as the former Mouseketeer in the naughty schoolgirl uniform that teenagers fell in love with.
If Britney can surround herself with good people and keep the good headlines pumping, it might be good to have a woman who can overcome the stress of raising kids and being in an abusive relationship.
But it's not going to be easy, because a mere glance at an album cover isn't going to convince anyone that she's innocent.
