Britney Spears launches Circus in France

I like some of Britney Spears' music, but I don't follow her career too closely. So I was probably the last person to know she was making a come-back. But yesterday her face was everywhere in Parisian news since her new album, Circus, launched in France yesterday, days before its official Dec 2nd North American launch.

Why France? I haven't figured that one out yet. There are often big movies that come out here first, too, but I always chalked that up to the Wednesday premier of movies in France vs. the Friday premiers in the US. 

Anyhoo, Britney performed "Womanizer" last night on France's top reality-TV show, Star Academy, and didn't look bad at all:


My one question for all of you Britney-watchers out there: How did she grow her hair so long in less than two years after completely shaving it off?

Extensions. And oddly, because you would think she would have the resources, really ragged extensions at times.

I did watch the Britney Documentary the other night whilst working late, so if you have any other Britney-related questions, I am sure I could answer them for you.
