Britney Spears is opening up for the first time since welcoming Baby Sean Preston into the world. The singer is on a high note as she talks to People magazine about re-discovering her voice, getting back in shape and the much-talked about "Baby Gate."

People Magazine's Jamie Bufalino relayed Brit's revelations about starting this new chapter in her life.

Regarding the buzz and criticism surrounding the car seat scandal, Bufalino said, "It's been a very unfortunate incident for her and her family."

Doting mother Britney would never put her precious baby boy at risk; he's her pride and joy, and she revealed that he's the inspiration behind her desire to get back in the studio and record a new album. "She's really re-discovered her talent for singing by singing to Sean Preston," Bufalino revealed.

In addition to a new album, which Britney said to expect by the end of the year, Spears is excited to debut her hot new body! "She's getting into pre-baby shape by doing a combination of cardio, yoga, Pilates and weight lifting."

But as Britney gets her life back on track, it seems that her husband Kevin Federline is still reverting to his old ways.

According to entertainment website TMZ.com, K-Fed and his buddies were playing war games in the streets of Los Angeles on Monday. "They were all over a residential area shooting air guns with rubber pellets," said Harvey Levin, managing editor of TMZ. "They were hitting cars, buildings; they are lucky that it didn't put somebody's eye out."

Britney begins her comeback with a live appearance on "Good Morning America" on February 28, and a guest spot of "Will and Grace" on April 13.

:love: :love: :love: her

I'm so excited!

It has been 20 months since Britney Spears was last on tour and more than two years since she released an album of new material. But that doesn’t mean the singer has stopped performing. These days her audience tends to be small – just one wriggly fan – the venue intimate and the singing unplugged. “I’ll sing him ‘Mary had a little lamb,’” Spears says of crooning to her 5-month-old son Sean Preston. “And I make up stuff.” She pauses and considers for a moment. “I found out after the baby,” she says earnestly, “that I can sing!”

It’s one of the many realizations new to Spears since entering Club Mom last September. Motherhood “is such an intense experience,” says the 24 year old singer, sipping a mango margarita at a Mexican restaurant in Santa Monica, Calif., down the coast from the newly remodeled home she shares with husband Kevin Federline, 27, and “Sean P,” as the new parents sometimes call their son. Unnoticed by the lunch crowd in tinted sunglasses and a sleeveless geometric print dress, Spears is alternately confident when she speaks about her imminent return to the recording studio and exasperated when conversation turns to the subject of the paparazzi. This is clearly a more resolute, more guarded Britney than the one who once only had to look out for herself. “I’m going to [get back to work], but I’m going to do it with definite balance for my baby,” she says, “because I want him to have the best of both worlds.”

For a star who has led more of her life in the spotlight than out, the challenge now is bridging the dueling worlds of motherhood (“Mary had a little lamb/Its fleece as white as snow”) and pop superstardom (“And everywhere that Britney went/Paparazzi were sure to go”). The singer’s parental judgment came under serious fire February 6 when she drove with Sean Preston on her lap – drawing sharp criticism on behalf of everyone from the Mommy and Me set to the US Secretary of Transportation, who called her actions “irresponsible.” Last week Spears explained that she was just acting instinctively while trying to evade the aggressive paparazzi; now she addresses the incident with caution. “I love my baby more than anything,” she says, “and as unfortunate an experience as this has been for me and my family, if it brings more attention to child safety then I fully support that.”

But ask about the photographers who track her every move, and her frustration is palpable. “I don’t really go out with him,” she says of Sean Preston. “And it’s kind of sad because I can’t walk down the street with the stroller. I’m not expecting people to pity me. I’m just telling the truth. I’ve pulled over and asked the cops, ‘Could you please help me? They’ve been driving recklessly back there.’ And they say, ‘Sorry ma’am, I can’t help you. This is how it is.’ I mean, Princess Diana got killed by one of these people. They’re crossing the line.”

Then she looks up and shakes her head. “I sound bitter. I’m not bitter. I’m doing great. I really am. I’m happy. I’m very blessed. I have a beautiful home, a wonderful family, supportive, loving people around me. I have a great life.”

Now after a year and a half of marriage-and-maternity leave, Spears – who recently made the scene with Federline at the Screen Actors Guild and Grammy Awards party circuits – is resuming her busy life with the pent-up passion of a benched player twitching to get back in the game. Coming up: a guest turn on Will & Grace set to air April 13 (“I have been laughing so much every day on the set!”) and a Feb 28 live appearance on Good Morning America from New Orleans, where she has been active in helping to rebuild her home state via her hurricane relief fund. “I’m not going to be performing,” she says. “I thought instead that it’d be more meaningful if I surprised a group of girls to spend the day with them doing things that I used to like to do in Louisiana when I was younger. I know it’ll be such an emotional trip, but it will also be uplifting to see the city continuing its traditions.”

And then there’s her music. The same exhausted star who told People three months before giving birth that “the pace I was going at was ridiculous” can’t wait to get back to doing what she loves. “This may sound weird, but I miss traveling,” she says, “I miss the road, seeing different places and being with the dancers and having fun. That feeling of being on the stage, knowing it’s your best – I love that. I needed a break, I needed to be hungry again.”

More like ravenous. “She’s a true competitor in the very best sense of the word,” says Barry Weiss, president and CEO of Zomba Label Group, of which Spears’ label, Jive Records, is a part. “I think she knows she’s got a big, big place in the market she wants to reclaim. She says, “I belong out there. I can do these things.’” Spears is more pointed in her critique of the musical landscape. “It’s a huge lull,” she says. “I haven’t seen anybody out there who has had a performance where I’m like, ‘That’s ing awesome.’ It’s been boring. Nothing’s been WOW to me.”

Aiming for a release later this year, she has been recording in her home studio, experimenting with live musicians and stripping down her sound. “I’ll get on the pian-ah,” she says in her Louisiana twang, more pronounced in person than it is in her public appearances, “and I just play whatever feels good.” Hearing herself sing to Sean Preston had proved a turning point. “When I was little, I would listen to myself,” she says. “But the record label signs you, and you’re just thankful to get a hit song. You can’t really show off your voice and where you came from.”

Which brings her back to Louisiana. Growing Up, “I used to listen to blues music and all that stuff,” she says. “I would like to try and have more influences of that sound. Not that I’m going to be like frickin’ Tina Turner. But you never know.”

Eager as she is to return to performing, she is not yet the Britney who could famously match her backup dancers move for move. Although she is rapidly returning to her pre-baby body thanks to “a combination of cardio, weights, yoga and Pilates and long walks with the baby,” she is still troubled by the 2004 knee injury she sustained while shooting her “Outrageous” video. “It’s fine if I go to the gym and start dancing, but when I really start challenging myself, it starts snapping,” she says. “I just have a feeling if I really go for it, it’s not going to happen.”

She has changed in other major ways as well. The star who let it all hang out on last summer’s reality series Britney & Kevin: Chaotic is now far more protective of her personal life. “I would love to talk about my pride and joy,” she says of her son, “but once you do it with one interview, then the door is open and people take advantage of it.” When asked if she could open the door to talking about her husband, she says “Just a little” before addressing his forays into hip-hop. “He goes into the studio and has his own vibe,” she says. “I’m really impressed.”

Clearly she has been burned by the endless scrutiny of her marriage. “Look at Jennifer Aniston – she went on Oprah just to say she’s okay,” says Spears. “It does affect you to a certain extent. It has to. I don’t take myself so seriously, but when you’ve been poked at and poked at, there’s going to come a time when you’re going to snap.”

Late in the interview, Spears’ face lights up during a call to Federline to arrange their evening plans – the pair exchange easy laughs about Sean P. It is that little guy, after all, who has changed the singer’s world for good. And she is keenly aware that juggling her fierce ambitions with the sometimes messy contradictions of motherhood – that unique mix of vulnerability and invincibility will test her like nothing else. “In the care on the way here, I was crying because I was listening to country music,” she says. “I love LA but I know what I am. I’m a country girl at heart. I long to be at home. I like that simplicity for my child. I really, really do.”

I cant admit it. What does she actually do that is new that "shakes" up the pop scene? Her stunts,her music,what? What does she do that your average non singing dancer doesnt do? Am I missing something?

Britney says the pop scene is boring and rightfully so becaus IT IS. no one out there who is a full on pop artist has made a single memorable performance. Can anyone remember any performances that were WOW? obviously not.

You may not like Britney but homegirl has made some ing memorable performances.

Someone who lipsynchs 90% of their performances gets boring...

Someone who lipsynchs 90% of their performances gets boring...That's an oversimplification. Britney does not lip synch 90% of her performances. Not that I'm saying she doesn't lip synch but she's entitled to considering she's dancing more than anyone else out there. She's shown that she has a good solid voice when she's singing ballads and not to mention she's shown how good she is when singing and dancing at the same time. People like kelly clarkson wouldn't be able to do that and that's what makes Britney unique and different. no other female artist can dance out there like Britney does while singing live also. Plz don't mention Beyonce because what she does is not dancing. It's gyrating.:laugh:
