Britney Spears opens up about raising sons, date nights with her new man, and whether she’ll marry again. Subscribe now for an inside look at the popstar’s life now, plus exclusive at-home photos, only in PEOPLE. A hit Las Vegas show. Two happy, rambunctious boys. A hot new boyfriend who adores her. In short: life for Britney Spears has never been better. “I’m the happiest I’ve ever been,” Spears, 33, tells PEOPLE in this week’s exclusive at-home cover story. While her long-running Planet Hollywood residency is a big hit — the show has grossed nearly $50 million in ticket sales in a little more than a year — the superstar’s true passion is being a mother to Sean Preston, 9, and Jayden James, 8. “My kids come first in my life, bottom line,” says Spears, who shares parenting duties with her ex-husband, Kevin Federline. As a hands-on mom, Spears has a lengthy to-do list: play dates, soccer games, gymnastics lessons and up to three hours of homework a night. “Homework is a priority,” she says. “We have a reward system that helps motivate them: if they get so many As, they get one toy a month.” As the boys grow into “little men,” Spears is relishing their evolving personalities. “Preston is very opinionated, very expressive, and if he doesn’t like something, he’s going to tell you,” she says. “But he has a huge heart, he’s a good kid and he has manners … Jayden is sweet, very soft-spoken, kinda funny. He’s adorable — a momma’s boy.” Recently, the kids have taken on chores, including washing off their plates, taking out the trash and helping the family’s three dogs, and Spears is mulling giving them an allowance. “Preston just asked for a high allowance – like $10 a week or $20 a week – but we’ll see!” she says.

After rolling her ankle onstage last week while performing at her sold-out Piece of Me show at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, the "Pretty Girls" singer made a surprise appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Tuesday to give an update on her injury and make a major announcement. "We just watched what happened, and first of all, what a trooper," Ellen DeGeneres said. "You just kept on singing and tried to keep dancing on the floor. What happened?" "Well, I actually wasn't doing anything that hard," the pop star said. "I was just kind of bopping around. And I've done like eight years worth of shows. Plenty of shows! And I've never actually fell onstage, so it was really kind of embarrassing. But yeah, I fell down and I got up, and my dancers kind of guided me to keep going." Spears first reached out to fans via Twitter Apr. 30, writing, "Breaks my heart to share this news. After hurting my ankle last night my doctor has advised me not to perform this weekend #Heartbroken. Your kind words mean everything to me! I'm rescheduling this weekend's shows and will let ya'll know when we have the new dates. xoxo." Spears tells DeGeneres, 57, that she "tore some ligaments" when she fell: "I actually wasn't doing anything that hard," the singer says. "I was just kind of bopping around. I've done, like, eight years worth of shows … and I've never actually fell on stage so it was really kind of embarrassing." Continues Spears, "I just fell down, and I got up, and my dancers kind of guided me to keep going." Spears and her Piece of Me show – which, according to DeGeneres, recently won Best Show and Best Bachelorette Party in Vegas – will keep going, too, as long as her "wild" fans keep coming. "a lot of wild things," Spears adds. "Tattoos of my face on people's arms, which is really kind of crazy."

Now that Britney Spears and Iggy Azalea's highly-anticipated collaboration "Pretty Girls" is out (and likely being played on repeat), fans might be counting down the days until they can see the video. And when Britney Spears called into New York radio station Z100 on the single's release day (May 4), she confirmed that she'll be flaunting her dance moves in the kitchy clip, which they filmed last month. "This has been the first video I've done in a while where, you know, I came up with the concept and there's a lot of dancing," she said. "I got new choreographers to come in and kind of do hip-hop dancing, which I haven't done in a really long time, so the feel of the video is really different and high-energy. My dancers were there, my dancers from my show. There's a club scene, there's a car-wash scene, a couple of different other scenes. We had a lot of fun." When it came time to record the uptempo jam, Spears knew that she not only wanted to work with Iggy but also wanted to come up with an anthem for her fans. "I saw her video and I was just a huge fan. I was thinking about my next single for my next album and what I was gonna do, and I wanted to do a girl anthem," she said. "Something that was very girl empowering and that was kinda funny. I thought a whole take on valley girls and just kind of making fun of that would be fun for us to do. She was really down with it." "She invited me to her house, and I met her dog and we had salads. She's a very sweet girl. We hit it off," she continued. "It was so much fun working with her. I think she's from Australia. She has an accent. She's funny. She's really, really cool." Most importantly, Spears did share what type of salads the ladies consumed during the hangout session. "It was, like, a regular Caesar salad."

Britney Spears has finally premiered the music video for Iggy Azalea collaboration 'Pretty Girls'… and it’s like, totally out of this world. In the clip, the pop princess can be seen chilling by a pool when alien Iggy arrives - with the Aussie rapper receiving a Britney make-over. Spears then takes Azalea to meet her airhead friends (who are, like, totally over the top) before heading to the club, where the ‘Womanizer’ hitmaker shows off some of her trademark moves… yep, she’s still got it. Iggy previously spoke of Britney’s routine in the vid, stating: “I don't know if it necessarily fits my identity, but I think Britney's identity is really embedded in being a dancer, and that's something she really wanted to do as well." Although she's dressed her in '80s best, including leopard-printed crop tops and patchy denim, the 33-year-old performer looks as good as she did in her music videos for "Toxic" and "I'm a Slave 4 U." Of course, Iggy looks great as well, dressed as a "pretty girl" who hails from outer space.

You probably already knew that Christina Aguilera's secret party trick is that, after spending the 90s mocking her arch nemesis in the toilet mirror, she can do a mean Britney Spears impression. But in shock celebrity-based news, Xtina has revealed that Britters isn't the only famous face in her impressions repertoire, and that actually, she can nail pretty much anyone you throw at her from Shakira to Sia. The latest TV spot for The Voice US sees Christina taking on a selection of celeb alter-egos to show off her impressionist talents, and we're not kidding when we say her Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga and Cher are pretty brilliant. Surely it's about time she got her own telly programme just to do this on? Have a watch of the video right here and marvel at her numerous talents, of which singing might actually be bottom of the pile. No word on what Britney Spears herself thinks about this rekindling of their old frenemy relationship, but luckily she's a bit busy with Iggy Azalea at the moment to be pulling out all the old copies of Smash Hits and cutting Christina's face out of all the posters.
