Singer Britney Spears’ fans around the world are praising the pop star’s return to music after she dropped her new single with Elton John.
Spears collaborated with John on ‘Hold Me Closer’, a new spin on his hit song ‘Tiny Dancer’.
The single marks the first music to come from Britney Spears since her conservatorship was terminated in November 2021. Within hours after the track launched online, it already tops sales on iTunes across 29 countries, according to the news outlet France Info, reports Variety.
Throughout the conservatorship, Britney Spears recorded music, went on tour, and held a Las Vegas residency, but testified last summer that she was forced to work against her will throughout the 13-year court-ordered arrangement.
Britney Spears’ legal battle continues, as the singer fights against her father, Jamie Spears, who oversaw her conservatorship, and her former business manager, Tri Star Sports, and Entertainment Group.
Spears claims that her father and Tri-Star took advantage of her finances throughout the conservatorship and have made damning allegations about their alleged behavior towards her, which she has categorized as “conservatorship abuse”. The judge recently sided with the singer, ordering that her father must sit for a deposition this month, and ruling that she would not be deposed.
