Get ready to time travel back to 2001. "Matches," a song on the deluxe edition of Britney Spears' 2016 album, "Glory," is out now. The banger features the pop icon and the Backstreet Boys together singing about a love affair that's dangerous but oh-so-hot. "Our fire is killing me / The good kind of killing me / Like playing with matches, matches, matches," the two acts sing. "This might leave some damage, damage, damage / The good kind of damage, damage, damage."  "Matches" joins "Mood Ring" and "Swimming in the Stars" on the "Glory" deluxe edition, which is out now. "'Matches' featuring my friends @backstreetboys is out now !!!!" Spears wrote on her social media accounts. "I’m so excited to hear what you think about our song together!!!! You can also listen to Glory Deluxe everywhere now ... including 'Swimming in the Stars' and the 'Mood Ring' remixes !!!!" Spears also commented on the fact that fans got together earlier this year to send "Glory" back into the iTunes top 10. "The love you guys have shown this album this year has been stupid amazing, like I can’t even believe it !!! I hope it brings you joy. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!!" she added. On their socials, the Backstreet Boys wrote, "What a GLORIOUS day it is... we’ve been asked about the possibility of a collab like this for the past 20 years and today is the day!! #BritneyXBackstreet is finally here!" |

In celebration of pop star Britney Spears’ birthday, her label RCA Records has unveiled the previously unreleased track “Swimming In the Stars,” available to stream now (below) and for pre-order as an exclusive vinyl pressing from Urban Outfitters.
The new limited edition deluxe vinyl of Spears’ 2016 album “Glory” will also include other previously unreleased tracks and images, although details were not announced. The vinyl, available Dec. 4, comes on the heels of a series of fan activations that have placed the album back in the Top 10 at iTunes.
“Swimming in the Stars” is an outtake from Spears’ most recent studio album, “Glory,” which was released in August 2016; it is the second song to emerge from the sessions, after “Mood Ring (by Demand),” which was not included on the original release or deluxe edition. The album received a cover update in May to the surprise of many fans, changing the up-to-the-chin lacy head shot look to a full-body shot set in a desert oasis, complete with chains and a gold-leaf bikini.
The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning icon has nearly 150 million records worldwide, selling more than 70 million albums, singles and songs in the U.S. alone. From her snake-featuring 2001 VMA’s performance to her breakout single “…Baby One More Time,” the artist remains one of the most revered entertainers in pop history.
Outside of the industry, Spears has utilized her platform to speak out for social justice causes, from lending support to the queer community to DREAMers. As a result of using her platform, she received GLAAD’s 2018 Vanguard Award, which is presented to industry professionals who have made an impact in promoting justice for LGBTQIA+ people.

With support like this, Nick Carter does not appear to know the meaning of being lonely.
The 40-year-old Backstreet Boys member was revealed to be the Crocodile and landed in third place during The Masked Singer's season 4 finale that aired on Fox on Wednesday, Dec. 16. His family members, including wife Lauren Kitt Carter and their two kids, were cheering him on every step of the way.
"Congratulations, Daddy!" 4-year-old son Odin exclaimed in a video that Lauren posted to her Instagram Story after the episode aired. "You made the whole show."
Lauren added in the clip, "We are so proud of you." Meanwhile, 14-month-old daughter Saoirse appeared to offer her nonverbal encouragement from Mom's arms.
Following the end of the episode, the star posted on his Instagram Story, "The cherry on top of all of this was being able to do something that I could share with my kids. Seeing how excited they were to see the Croc on stage made this experience ten times more meaningful."
Nick received support from the greater boy-band community as well. Backstreet Boys' Instagram account posted in all capital letters, "Our brother rocked the croc all season long!! Congraulations @nickcarter."
'N Sync star Lance Bass shared on his Instagram Story, "Great job on @maskedsingerfox @nickcarter! Knew it was you all along!"
