As the release date for "Femme Fatale" approaches (March 29), every little tidbit of info about Briteny Spears is treated with breathless emotion from her publicists. And I am happy to take the bait.

Here are excerpts from the latest release:

Britney Spears is gearing up for a week of appearances and surprise performances to promote the release of her seventh studio album, Femme Fatale. First off is a special performance on ABC's Good Morning America from San Francisco's historic Castro district. This is the first time the show has filmed a concert from the location, and due to the time difference and logistics Britney will pre-tape the performance on Sunday, March 27th and the concert will air on GMA on March 29th. She is scheduled to make several appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show week of release and MTV is celebrating Femme Fatale with a Britney take-over day on March 29th. Britney is confirmed to participate on Nickelodeon's Kid's Choice Awards on April 2nd. In between rehearsals, Britney is shooting the video for her newest song, "Till The World Ends" in Los Angeles. Ray Kay has been tapped to direct the video.
