Fan-picked album covers are the latest new idea, being used by Britney Spears to increase fan engagement and hype her latest album release. (Side note: it used to be about the music).
The much-awaited Britney Spears album Circus is scheduled to launch on December 2nd, Britney’s 27th birthday.
Britney’s YouTube channel "Britney’s Circus TV" has been offering up fans of the pop singer an opportunity to decide which cover they like best in a set up they called "Pick your Fav".
What is my favorite cover you ask? Anything with a huge brick wall in front of Britney? LOL.
