It debuted at number one in the U.S. by selling 1,319,193 units during its first week of sales, breaking the SoundScan record for the highest album sales in its debut week by any solo artist.

Spears co-wrote eight of the album's thirteen songs and co-produced several pieces of her material for the first time.

'Toxic' became one of Britney's signature songs and the video is considered by most to be her best.

During 2007, Britney continually lost more and more custody of her children, until her mental breakdown, which resulted in her taking Jayden hostage in a bathroom for over three hours, in Jan 08 stripped her of any visitations whatsoever for over a month. Visitations after the month were heavily monitored.
On October 30, 2007 Spears released her 5th studio album entitled "Blackout" with its first single "Gimme More" being performed at the MTV Video Music Awards. "Gimme More was Britney's most successful single on the Billboard Hot 100 by peak position since "...Baby One More Time". The next two singles from "Blackout" were 'Piece of Me' and 'Break The Ice'. Britney did minimal promotion for the album and it's singles. For Gimme More, she filmed a music video and performed at the 2007 VMAs. For Piece of Me, she filmed a music video.

On September 15, Jive released a statement announcing the title of her sixth studio album, Circus, as well as the first single, Womanizer. The single was released to radio stations on September 26, and the release date for the album was December 2, Spears' 27th birthday.

MTV signed a deal with Spears and Jive records to release a documentary titled 'For the Record', which aired on November 30, 2008, two days before the release of Circus. The documentary was shot over three months and featured Britney discussing her personal life as well as her career.
Circus debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 selling 505,000 copies in its first week. This became Spears' fifth number one album, making her the only act in Nielsen SoundScan history to have four albums debuted with 500,000 copies or more.

People should be able to do whatever makes them happy!ā After years of absence, Forbes magazine listed Spears as the 13th most powerful celebrity and the second most top-earning young musician as she made $35 million from June 2008 to June 2009.

The album peaked at number one in the United States (selling 276,000 copies), Canada, and Australia, and peaked inside the top ten on nearly every other chart.

The song "Dramatic" by Britney Spears is a catchy pop tune that deals with themes of betrayal and empowerment. The song starts off with Britney inviting her ex-lover to play "just one more game" with her, but it quickly becomes clear that she's no longer the same girl he knew before. She's done playing nice, she's done playing on his home ground, and she's not going to put up with his lies anymore. Britney wants him to understand that it's over, and that he's being too dramatic.
As the song progresses, Britney becomes increasingly aggressive and takes control of the situation. She tells her ex that he's not the person she thought he was, and that she's found someone else who's under her spell. She's going to give him everything he wants and more, even if it means going to places he couldn't go before. Britney is done being played for a fool, and she's taking charge of her own pleasure.
Overall, "Dramatic" is a fun, energetic song that showcases Britney's confidence and strength. She's not afraid to stand up for herself and take control of her own life, and the song's catchy beat and sing-along chorus make it a great addition to any dance playlist.

Now back to reality.
(Your dramatic)
The truth that lies can't hide,
I'm not by your side
I'll let you drownd in your drama
Run to your mama,
See if she can save you,
When I'm not around you
(So dramatic)
No, no, no, no, you're not the one I thought you were,
Now there's another ringing my bell,
I'm under his spell,
You're too dramatic,
Understand it's over
Baby, fuck you,
The things you did, and never thought I'd get a clue,
Yeah, you wanted me to be that faithful to you,
Not let nobody's body touch my body in positions that we only knew
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Now I'm gonna give him what he wants and more,
Do all those explicit things that I told you "No",
Places you couldn't go,
You know where I'm talking,
You are too dramatic
No, no, no, no, you're not the one I thought you were.
Now there's another ringing my bell,
I'm under his spell,
You're too dramatic,
Understand it's over
aww, awww, awww, awww
aww, awww, awww, awww
Come and play,
You wanna play,
Come play with me
You're not the one I thought you were,
Now there's another ringing my bell,
I'm under his spell,
You're too dramatic,
Understand it's over
You're not the one I thought you were,
Now there's another ringing my bell,
I'm under his spell,
You're too dramatic,
Understand it's over.
Understand it`s over.
(You're so dramatic)

Shaaaade, shaaaaaaaaade. This is her real response to Cry me a River not Everytime.
Not letting her release Original Doll is a crime against humanity. Iām being completely serious when I say this.
don't shoot i'm a human
this was written in 2006, so probably to "What Goes Around Comes Around"

I honestly donāt think Britney likes to make controversy, so Original Doll wouldnāt have any diss tracks even if it wouldāve been her most aggressive album. I would love diss tracks, but Original Dollās themes wouldāve probably been like freedom and rebellion instead of drama.

Look Who's Talking Now and Guilty are two more songs in response to JT. She completely denies cheating, and in Guilty she plays up the false fanatasy that she has cheated as a form of catharsis. Dramatic was recorded after Original Doll was planned to be released, so this could be a response to how JT has continued to drag Britney's name under a false narrative long after they were over.

+fromtheintoxicatedink This was recorded for blackout if you can't tell by the video. Just get over it, britney cheated and it was confirmed.

@LGBTES Toxic masculinity is a myth and this was recorded during the blackout era if you can't tell by the video.

Jesus Christ. Original Doll really would've been her biggest masterpiece (yes, better than Blackout and In The Zone her biggest masterpieces) i can't believe we'll die without listening to it.
