producer Timbaland wants to save Britney

[Coco69]

NEW YORK (AP) - Timbaland, who's crafted hits for Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado, wants to help Britney Spears reclaim her once-stellar career.

"I feel her pain, it really bothers me," the 34-year-old rapper-producer says in an interview in Entertainment Weekly magazine's March 16 issue. "I'm the type of person who tries to save the world. I just want to take her away, go overseas, and work (it) out."

Timbaland says he invited Timberlake, his "best friend" and Spears' ex-boyfriend, to be part of that plan.

"I asked Justin, 'How would you feel about me working with Britney?' I had to ask him that," Timbaland is quoted as saying. "I said, 'Would you do it with me?'"

The 26-year-old "SexyBack" singer said he would, according to Timbaland, who notes: "She's just gotta be serious."

Timberlake's spokeswoman, Sonia Muckle, referred inquiries to Timbaland's spokeswoman, Monique Idlett, who didn't immediately respond to a phone call Wednesday from The Associated Press. Gina Orr, a publicist at Jive Records, Spears' label, didn't immediately respond to an e-mail message.

Last month, Spears, 25, checked into Promises Malibu drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in California, capping a week of bizarre behavior in which she entered and exited rehab twice, shaved her head bald and went out clubbing with friends.

"I just want to hold her hand," Timbaland says. "I want her to be in my camp, to be around Justin. I need Justin to talk to her. Help her, please!"

I love Tim but gimme a break who actually cares to save her, the fact remains that anyone who could ressurect that slob's career would be in for the payday of a lifetime, thats all that its about.

[Joe Scudda]

lol timbaland can do no wrong right now lol he def see $$$$ when he looks at her cause everyone would buy that record

[fifi~dee]

he's attempting to do the impossible and probably something nobody else wants to attempt to do... Try to turn her career around.

Good for him!

[Coco69]

idk. he's already loaded as is. he sounds like he genuinely wants to help her out. i mean, alot of ppl do feel bad for the girl. who knows.

[darius]

timbaland should take on britney and quincy jones or babyface should take on whitney and they should have a raise to see who can hit #1 album first. and they should create a reality show around it -- call it "Rehab to Re-Fab"

[Jame$ Money]

I still dont think its about helping her as in beneftitting her well being and health ... resurrecting Britney's career would be the score of all scores and i think Tim looks at her and just has visions of Promiscuous Girl : The Sequel, dancing in his head.

[NOCTURNAL]

Britney should just retire and disappear into obscurity .....

She has more money than she will ever need. She will not be able to pull off what made her famous and popular in the first place ..the whole *innocent lil girl ..with a naughty srtreak*


Bitch got 2 kids... and 2 ex-husbands ...now, she fits in with the rest of America :chuckle

Anything Timb touches turns up a hit. But this is a fookin challenge.


JT, TIMB, BSPEAR production...

Brit needs a hair cause her head will get "so cold"

[Jame$ Money]

I think her time is passed i mean i know people like to see someone who has gotten knocked down get back up and repair a damaged image, but this bitch has been punched in the jaw, knocked down and knocked up, shaved bald, had a rubber tire tied around her ass and had her kids snatched away from her by a wanna be thug fast food commercial burger slinging hammerteeth fake rapper.

Thats a little more than just getting knocked down, i think its a wrap for Brocolli Spears.

Off topic ill go on record saying "Slave For You" was the last and probably only piece of good music we will ever hear from her again.

[snowangel]

LOVE the Slave song AND especially the video :spitfall, I agree that we most likely won't see that girl again

In all honesty Timbaland is gonna pull it off.If any producer can re create her its him.. He is 100% right if he takes her over seas for like 6 mths where she will be left alone and not out in the open as much and they work together 6 mths from now she will have her carrer back. Plus if Justin gets involved and helps it will only help..Imagine a Justin and Britney come back track by Timbaland...
People hate on her but she is a ridiciouls performer and does have talent.
Im not gonna say she has the slammest voice in the world but she something that people like cause if she didnt she wouldnt of made all the money she has made...

[Coco69]

yeah, you never know. there are still Britney fanatics out there, believe it or not. :keke besides, ppl arent even into talent anymore. if britney cleans up her look, i wouldn't be surprised if she pulled out again. its all about looks these days. ex. that Antonella chic. if it looks good, let it be on tv and radio. :rolleyes: image sells just as much as talent.

Its sad but true its not about talent anymore.
I just see it as this she was very marketable at one time and she is in a serious slump in her life right now. By herself she probaly never get her carrer back.
With one of the top 5 producers in the business willing to help her and her ex boyfriend childhood friend to me sounds like its a winner...
