Britney Spears 'Circus' album

Britney Spears has arranged a wonderful birthday present for herself: her sixth studio album, Circus, due for release December 2nd, the day she turns 27, her label Jive Records has announced.

Coming so soon after her triple victory for video of the year, best female video and best pop video for "Piece of Me" at MTV's Video Music Awards on September 7th, Circus follows up her well-received 2007 album Blackout and continues the upward spiral the sometimes-troubled pop star has been experiencing.

The Outsyders, described by Spears's label, Jive records, as an up-and-coming Atlanta production team, have produced the first single from the album, "Womanizer," which dropped September 22nd and impacts Top 40 Mainstream on October 7th.

Other producers and writers with a hand in the album, according to Jive, include Dr. Luke (writer-producer of the title track, "Circus"), Danja, Max Martin, Bloodshy & Avant and Guy Sigsworth who's collaborated with such other artists as Madonna, Alanis Morissette and Bjork.

In all, Spears has sold more than 62 million albums internationally, including 1999's Baby One More Time, 2000's Oops! ... I Did It Again, 2001' Britney, 2003's In The Zone and the previously mentioned Blackout. Her sales records include eight No. 1 worldwide singles and four consecutive No. 1 albums.
