Britney Spears Is Coming-back! (Biographies & Memoirs)
1 chapters
—
updated Jan 19, 2011 11:37pm
Description:
Not long ago, most of the entertainment world had written Britney Spears off as a celebrity flameout. But in June 2010, Spears was ranked sixth on Forbes list of the 100 Most Powerful and Influential celebrities in the world; she is also ranked as the third most powerful musician in the world. According to concert trade publication Pollstar, “The Circus Starring Britney Spears” tour grossed more than $130 million. Spears took in still more from tour merchandise and another greatest hits album, “The Singles Collection.” She really made $64 million last year (June 1 2009 to June 2010). The lead single “Hold It Against Me” of her upcoming album, premiered on January 10, 2011, set the record for most radio plays in one day in the United States, and was expected the track to sell over 400,000 copies in the US its first week. So, it is very clear now that Britney Spears is coming back—slowly but surely—on the path to achieve her lost glory.

“The world of books is the most remarkable creation of man, nothing else that he builds ever lasts, monuments fall, nations perish, civilizations grow old and die out, and, after an era of darkness new races build others but in the world of books are volumes that have seen this happen again and again and yet live on, still young still as fresh as the day they were written, still telling men’s hearts.”

Thanks for accepting my friend request, Pradeep. It's greatly appreciated. If you love a good mystery, and you have either a Kindle, Nook or iBooks, I encourage you to try a sample of my first novel. It's called FORBIDDEN STEPS and it's getting raves and 5 stars across the board. Check out what folks are saying by clicking on the link below, then scroll downward. http://www.craftweb.org/web/ed/book.html
Also, here's the link to my YouTube promo vid.

Enjoy and have a wonderful day, Ed
I very much appreciate your including me among your friends, Pradeep. I see you are a very prolific writer and I hope to take a look at some of your work. I hope you will also consider my spiritual allegory, Song of George: Portrait of an Unlikely Holy Man. It is, perhaps, an unlikely tribute to my Spirtual Master, Sant Ajaib Singh Ji. Wishing you well in all things. Namaste, jesse
