Description
Circus is the sixth studio album by American singer Britney Spears. It was released on November 28, 2008, by Jive Records. A transition from the "darker and more urban" themes of her fifth studio album Blackout (2007), Spears wanted to make her next project "a little bit lighter". She recorded the album during the summer of 2008, after being involuntarily placed under a conservatorship earlier that year. As executive producers, Larry Rudolph and Teresa LaBarbera Whites enlisted collaborators including Spears' longtime colleague Max Martin and Danja. Their efforts resulted in a primarily pop and dance record with urban influences. Upon its release, Circus received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who complimented its production but were ambivalent towards its lyrical content. It debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, making it her fifth album to reach the top of the chart. The album has sold over 4 million copies worldwide. Four singles were released, three of which became international hits. Its lead single, "Womanizer", peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100 and registered as the largest jump to the top of the chart at the time after debuting at number 96. It became Spears's best-selling single in the country since "...Baby One More Time" (1998), and received a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards (2010). The second and third singles, "Circus" and "If U Seek Amy", peaked at numbers three and 19 in the country, respectively. Consequentially, Circus became Spears's second studio album after her debut ...Baby One More Time (1999) to have two top-ten singles and three top 20 singles, also being her first to have two top-five singles in the United States along with five charting songs on the Billboard Hot 100. To promote the album, Spears embarked on a concert tour titled The Circus Starring Britney Spears, which commenced in March 2009.
