After a bit of a lull in Britney Spears news, the pop princess is once again on the scene.

Buzz about Britney’s latest work-in-progress is hitting the internet and Grammy winning producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins says he’s working with her on some “very dancey, really up-tempo, aggressive, catchy, and hook friendly” tunes.

He adds, “I’m trying some new things. I’ve always worked with Britney and I love working with her. I’m try to reinvent her and reinvent myself with her project.”

He must be a gambling man.

Jerkins last worked with Britney on the tracks “Overprotected” and “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll” from her self titled album back in 2001.

The producer has no qualms about working with Brit. He says, “She’s always professional.”

Producer Sean Garrett who is also set to work with Spears said, “I know she’s been doing a lot better. You just want to give her the opportunity to get things back together. It’s about her time again.”

Britney finally got to spend a night with her two boys, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, on Saturday night. It was the first overnight visit with her children in six months.

Unfortunately the boys only stayed until Sunday, and after they were picked up Britney became depressed.

A source told Us Weekly, “Britney was very upset after the kids left. She now does not know when she will get them next for an overnight. She complains it could be next week, or it could be three months.”

Hopefully for her sake it will be soon. It seems as though she really has given it an effort. She’s not driving around aimlessly with the kids anymore - hopping from gas station bathroom to gas station bathroom flashing her crotch everywhere in between. Maybe her hairy rear, but not her cooter.

Kevin Federline is still seeking sole custody of the kids and wants Britney to stick to the current visitation terms.

The couple’s custody trial is set to begin August 25th.

According to court documents, Britney is eager to move from her paparazzi infested neighborhood in Los Angeles to a quieter, slower pace of life in Louisiana.

She desires a place of “a lower density, more quiet and less trafficked neighborhood . . more accessible to parks and recreation areas,” for her boys.

The documents states that the sale of her home would be in “the best interest of [Spears], her Estate and her minor children.”

Earlier this month she was granted permission to sell her home. Her mother told the courts that Brit “intends to return to Louisiana.”
