New inside-information from Britney's new record has surfaced and finally the facts about the "Blackout"-era being OVER is confirmed. No Radar. Sources tell that tentative release date is December 9, 2008 with the first single scheduled to impact radio in early October. Jive wants to release two singles before the new album.

"Jive and Britney’s team are closing down “Blackout” because of all the negatives that are associated with this album, not necessarily the music itself, but the drama from Britney’s personal life that will always be attached and associated with the “Blackout” album. It may be a great album but the image attached to it will keep it back from ever progressing further. Britney and her team mutually agreed to start off fresh with a new album and a brand new cleaned up image. Jive Reps are extremely happy with the quality with the new material she’s recorded with Bloodshy, Danja, JR and Polow. "

Britney’s in early talks with the major TV networks who are so desperate to lock Britney into a contractual agreement for the first sit down television interview 1 hour special. Early indications are the networks are throwing around some ridiculous figures that they would be willing to pay for this interview. Jive, Britney and her team will listen to offers but will not accept anything this early. I guess they’re testing the waters early to make this an intense bidding war and jack up the price. Right now Britney just wants to concentrate on gaining back 50-50 custody of her two sons, finishing the new album off, getting back into shape and polishing off her dance routines.

Britney’s also been working out everyday and on a diet as she is determined to get her body back in top shape. She is still very embarrassed about her MTV Video Music Award performance, with the actual performance and her physical appearance at the show. She’s been looking her best in recent years judging by photos taken of her recently so the workouts and dieting are having an effect.”

Sounds interesting and also after this, the end of an era doesn't hurt that much. But "Radar/Toy Soldier" would have been HUGE.
