I was never a Britney fan back when she was at the height of her popularity, but I have been totally loving all of her music post-2007 meltdown. Of course I love that she’s embraced these huge catchy European club beats (I was actually a little shocked to discover that “Work Bitch” was produced by will.i.am) but her songs also seem a little more tongue-in-cheek now with the music in general feeling a lot more fun and lively. You have to be a real cynical cranky-ass bastard to not love “Work Bitch”.  This song embodies what pop music is all about, and if you start complaining about how stupid it is then you’re really missing the point.  15 years after “…Baby One More Time” Britney’s back, bitch, and she’s better than ever.

BTW, is it just me, or does it look like Britney’s had some work done recently?
