Britney Spears’ ‘Till The World Ends’ Hits Web

Femme Fatale ‘s second single was penned by Ke$ha. By Jocelyn Vena Photo: Jive Britney Spears’ new single, “Till the World Ends,” sounds poised to be a club smash. The Ke$ha-written , Dr. Luke/Max Martin-produced track was posted by Perez Hilton on Thursday afternoon (March 3), after speculation earlier in the day that the song would hit radio next week. “Till the World Ends” is a swirling, “beat the beat” track, ready for late nights spent “dancing till the world ends” as she sings on the fast-paced party jam. “This kitten got your tongue tied in knots I see/ Spit it out ’cause I’m dying for company,” a confident Spears purrs. As the song slows for a moment — during a break before she moves her way to the chorus — she sings, “I can’t take it take it take no more/ Never felt like felt like this before/ Come on get me get me on the floor/ DJ, what you what you waiting for?” she teases. The beat chugs in the background as synths play with Spears’ sex-kitten delivery of lines like “Watch me move/ When I lose, when I lose it hard/ Get you off with a touch/ Dancing in the dark. “See the sunlight/ We ain’t stopping/ Keep on dancing till the world ends/ If you feel it/ Let it happen/ Keep on dancing till the world ends,” she sings as the song breaks down, fading out for a brief moment (revealing her signature breathiness), and then coming back in as she repeats those final lines again to close the song. Ke$ha recently dished about the track to Spin.com , noting that it is about the power of an artist performing a great gig. “That song is me imagining her and any female musician touring the world,” she said. “You know, when you go out, and you’re having an amazing, magical night and you don’t want to go to sleep and you want it to last until the world ends.” “Till the World Ends” is the second single from Femme Fatale , set to drop March 29. Its lead single, “Hold It Against Me,” was an equally club-friendly jam by Luke and Martin, who are overseeing production on the album.

REVIEW: Beastly, Despite Its Heartthrob Stars, Is Hardly Pretty

A teen-idol vehicle with the ultimate aim of leaving the young misses combusting in the aisles, Beastly takes little care with its task, dumping gasoline and gun powder where it might rig a modest array of fireworks. A twist on the Beauty and the Beast story that turns a cyborg-handsome high schooler’s pernicious vanity into a teachable moment, Beastly manages to show you all the ways it might have worked by missing every available mark, sometimes by the gaping expanse between Alex Pettyfer’s ears, sometimes only by the feline curl of Vanessa Hudgens’ smile.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy on Being The Bachelor: Get Me Outta Here!

In addition to Dancing With the Stars , which unveils its all-new cast tonight, Maksim Chmerkovskiy starred as The Bachelor in his native Ukraine. Boy is he regretting that decision now. Give him terrible tendinitis, put him in front of Len Goodman on his most crotchety day, even partner him with Kate Gosselin . Just get him on the floor. “[It was] the hardest thing that I’ve ever done,” Maksim says of being The Bachelor . “If I knew then what I know now, I would never have signed up.” The ballroom dancer is not one to shy away from the attention of beautiful women, but Chmerkovskiy admits he may not have done his homework. “I had never seen it,” he says of The Bachelor . “I still knew what it was about. In theory you think you can do it, but you cannot realize how difficult it is.” Looking for love while being followed by cameras is one thing, but what Maks was not prepared for is that at seemingly every turn, he broke hearts. “The fact that I had to choose people was something else,” Chmerkovskiy said. “People should never be lined up and chosen. We’re not objects and not supposed to be lined up like that. It’s terrible, it’s like I was back in high school.” So did he dole out a final rose? He won’t say, but Maks notes that being the Ukrainian Bachelor had a unexpected perk that may have changed his life. “There was a psychiatrist on staff who I ended up speaking to everyday, and it was so therapeutic,” he says. “It wasn’t that I had issues to fix, but talking to a professional everyday really helped a lot, so that was an amazing experience.” That’s good. Brad Womack can most likely attest to the same thing. Speaking of, read The Bachelor spoilers here to see who Brad picks!

Charlie Sheen Declares: I’m Grandiose, Not Gonna Die!

In his latest rant – this time to TMZ, from his own backyard – Charlie Sheen insinuated that long-time publicist Stan Rosenfield lied in October when he claimed that Sheen’s Plaza Hotel breakdown was due to an allergic reaction. As a result of this statement, Rosenfield issued the following statement this afternoon: “I’m unable to work effectively as his publicist and have respectfully resigned.” Sheen’s response to this decision? “Pussy. He’s not allowed to quit, so you’re fired.” Yes, it’s just another few hours in the life of Charlie Sheen. Shortly after he went off to NBC and ABC regarding his status as a role model for his children , the star spoke with TMZ and said he was disappointed in how those interviews were portrayed. “I had an expectation, and the result was not something I thought it would be. And that’s on me. Whatever, life goes on.” Among other topics Sheen touched on : his father, his kids and Heath Ledger… On his 10-month old kids : “Everybody here is parenting the kids. They’re running into walls, but they’re screaming ‘Da-Da’ when they do it.” On his father’s recent defense : “I respectfully allow him to maintain those beliefs and those opinions. I don’t support them … He doesn’t live inside my brain. I’m the only one who does … No disrespect, but I’m 45 years old. At some point, respect and embrace that. I have five kids.” Is he crazy? “I’m grandiose.” Does he fear suffering a similar fate to Michael Jackson and Heath Ledger? “It’s not a one-size fits all. That’s what people don’t seem to get. That’s all I’m going to say about it. Don’t do drugs that are just supposed to be administered in a hospital at home. Read the frickin’ labels.”

REVIEW: Drive Angry 3-D Is Disreputable Fun, Until 3-D Fatigue Sets In

Patrick Lussier and Todd Farmer’s exploitation extravaganza Drive Angry 3-D is not recommended for the squeamish, the highly suggestible, or children under 40. It should be OK for everyone else, though, particularly those with a high threshold for disreputability and a fondness for ’70s-era drive-in caliber action junk. Its hero, played by Nicolas Cage, is a vigilante from hell; his mission, or at least one of them, is to tell the world to eat his dust.
