Britney Spears Harper's Bazaar June 2011

Back in the spotlight after nabbing one of the most-sought after cover gigs, Britney Spears graces the front page of the June 2011 issue of Harper's Bazaar.

Set to hit newsstands on May 31, the "Hold It Against Me" singer opens up about her career, preparing for her upcoming tour, motherhood, and more.


Highlights from Britney's interview with Harper's Bazaar are as follows:

On the success of her new album Femme Fatale: "I've worked so hard on this album, so it's really refreshing."

On preparing for her upcoming tour: “I love to dance, so it’s very exciting. The tour rehearsals have been going really well. I think it will be my best show yet.”

On how being a mom affected how she approaches her career: “I think things through a little bit more, and I worry a lot. I’m more straightforward, and I speak up more than I did before. When I was younger, I wouldn’t speak up as much, but now that I’m a mom, things have changed.”

On what people don't know about her: “I’m pretty normal, you know? Like I said, the type of day I love is just like everybody else’s. I’m like everybody else.”
