The cover art and track list for Britney Spears’ new album, Circus, has been released to the public.

While the art is kinda pretty, and Britters looks about the best she’s ever been in years, the lack-luster first single, Womanizer, still hangs over the entire production like a big, overly repetitive, annoying black cloud.

To see the track list, follow the jump.

1. Womanizer
2. Circus
3. Out From Under
4. Kill The Lights
5. Shattered Glass
6. If U Seek Amy
7. Unusual You
8. Blur
9. Mmm Papi
10. Mannequin
11. Lace and Leather
12. My Baby

Bonus Track:

13. Radar

Following Jessica’s abyssmal debut in the country music arena, comes the promotional shots for her very first country music album, Do You Know.

The album cover features a rather demure-looking Simpson in a white dress and the staple brown cowboy boots. How original.

She also manages to look astoundingly like fellow country music singer – and rival – Carrie Underwood, in the promo shots. Guess it’ll make it even easier for fans to mistake her for the American Idol winner.

Michael Jackson is planning a comeback. So serious is he, that he has even banned his kids from his Las Vegas studio.

Starpulse reports, “Michael is producing the album himself and has banned his kids from the recording studio. He realizes this is very important and doesn’t want any distractions. He’s not going to be involved in any personal relationships with women until he gets this record done. He’s dumped the nanny – she’s not around any more.”

As if he would be in a personal relationship with any woman, without there was children involved. At least his children can sleep safely while his focus is elsewhere.

Some potential song titles.

• How Much Is That Baby In The Window
• Chocolate Salty Balls
• It’s Only Kinky The First Time
• He’s My Cabana Boy
• I Love Hard Candy
• Finger Wiggle Fun
• Under Cover Father (Extended Play)
• Pajama Party
• And many more…

The cover art for actress Scarlett Johansson’s debut album has been revealed!

It looks like Johansson has adopted a Sleeping Beauty-style shot, with the ‘Other Boleyn Girl’ star dressed all in white and laying on a bed of leaves.

The album, titled Anywhere I Lay My Head, is a collection of Tom Waits covers, with the inclusion of one original track. Muso David Bowie also features on the album, lending a hand as a guest vocalist on the songs “Falling Down” and “Fannin Street.”

Anywhere I Lay My Head is due in stores on May 20.
