Britney Spears Earns Her First New Album Debut In Almost A Decade
Britney Spears's Oops!... I Did It Again returns thanks to a twenty-fifth anniversary edition, ... More debuting at No. 41 on the Official Album Downloads chart.

(Photo by Jeremy Bembaron/Sygma/Sygma via Getty Images) A quarter-century ago, Britney Spears changed pop music forever when she released her album Oops!... I Did It Again. The full-length proved she was a true force to be reckoned with in the top 40 space, and it signaled that she would be sticking around for quite a while. The singer's sophomore set produced some of her most familiar tunes – including the title track – and fans still love everything about it to this day. The set is a bestseller again in the United Kingdom, and this week, it appears on multiple charts… and even manages to earn Spears her first new placement on one list in almost a decade. Oops!... I Did It Again debuts on this week's Official Album Downloads chart, which ranks the top downloaded full-lengths and EPs across the country on platforms like iTunes, Amazon, and others. Spears's set opens at No. 41, narrowly missing out on becoming a top 40 bestseller. Amazingly, this frame marks the first time Oops!... I Did It Again has appeared on this ranking. When the project was first released, streaming didn't exist, so there weren't separate rankings for sales and general consumption when it came to songs or albums. That means older efforts, like Oops!... I Did It Again, sometimes debut on tallies such as this one well after their heyday. Spears earns her career eighth appearance on the Official Album Downloads chart this week. Oops!... I Did It Again brings the singer her first win on the list since September 2016. Just under a decade ago, Glory debuted that month and rose to No. 4, spending just three weeks somewhere on the tally. As it debuts on the Official Album Downloads chart, Oops!... I Did It Again also manages to return to the Official Albums Sales list, though it's not new to that ranking. In fact, the title has now spent three frames on the roster. It launched in 2020 and last appeared on the tally — which looks at all forms of purchases in the country — in April 2023, when it reached its all-time peak of No. 52. To celebrate Oops!... I Did It Again turning 25, Spears released a special anniversary edition of the album on May 16. The project, available digitally as well as on collectible vinyl, included multiple alternative recordings and remixes, expanding the set considerably.

Huge Britney Spears rumor finally put to bed after 25 years
Britney Spears fans have finally learned the truth behind her iconic Oops!... I Did It Again album cover. After 25 years of speculation that the famous artwork was photographed at Lenny Kravitz 's Miami house, the rumor has been dispelled once and for all thanks to photographer Mark Seliger's executive producer. Speaking to Page Six, Ruth Levy revealed: 'I can confirm the album cover was not shot at Lenny's house.' Instead, the publication claims that the actual location of the photoshoot was Quixote Studios in West Hollywood, California. And although Lenny's house wasn't used for the shoot, he was there at the time along with his then 12-year-old daughter, Zoe Kravitz. In 2019, Zoe, now 36, shared a throwback snap of the moment she met Britney, 43. She looked delighted in the image as she posed with the singer. 'This is important,' Zoe captioned the upload, which saw her smiling for the camera with Britney as she took a quick break for her hectic work schedule for the day. For the past 25 years, fans have speculated whether the artwork was shot at Lenny Kravitz's home in Miami Britney was at the height of her fame as an 18-year-old back in 2000 after having gained worldwide recognition with her hit single Hit Me Baby One More Time the year before. Proving that she was accompanied by her dad Lenny on the set of Britney's shoot, the year before Zoe shared a snap of him posing with Britney from the same day. She also labelled it: 'This is important @lennykravitz.' Britney went on to release seven more albums after Oops, with her latest being Glory in 2016. Known as the Princess of Pop, her work inspired other pop stars including Katy Perry and Meghan Trainor, she was honored wit the Billboard Millennium Award in 2016. Earlier this month, the model who made an appearance as Britney's astronaut lover in her Oops!...I Did It Again music video opened up about working with the singer. Eli Swanson, 49, became widely known for his role in the clip which was released 25 years earlier in April 2000. When he initially auditioned for the part in the music video, Eli was not aware that he would be working with Britney. Speaking to People, he said: 'The next day, I received the call time and details. When I arrived, I discovered what the project was, which was exciting.' The model, who is now working as a doctor, had nothing but positive words for Britney and the experience he had while on set. 'When I met her for the first time, she was very sweet,' he gushed. 'She had her little dog and her mom with her. 'It was cool to meet her. She was very, very nice... very humble.' At one point while filming a scene, he remembered that a piece from one of the cameras had fallen and hit the songstress in the head. But Eli explained the performer maintained her professionalism and 'took it like a champion.'

Britney Spears's Album Celebrates A Very Special Birthday
By the time she released Oops!... I Did It Again, Britney Spears was already a global pop superstar. The singer had scored one of the greatest debuts of all time with "...Baby One More Time" (and the album of the same name) which arrived the year prior. Her follow-up proved she was no one-hit wonder and that a new powerhouse talent had arrived — one who would change pop music forever. Spears's record label is celebrating the project's twenty-fifth anniversary with a special re-release, which fans were quick to snap up however they could. The Oops!... I Did It Again twenty-fifth anniversary edition currently sits at No. 20 on the iTunes Top Albums chart in the U.S. It stands as one of the highest-rising debuts this week, despite being part of a crowded Friday packed with exciting new drops. Spears comes in just behind newly-shared efforts by Morgan Wallen, BTS singer Jin, Sleep Theory, Sons of Sunday, Linkin Park, and the composer behind Disney+'s hugely popular Andor series. This may be just the beginning for the re-released Oops!... I Did It Again, which could continue to climb as fans across the U.S. wake up and realize they can now purchase the expanded set. The twenty-fifth anniversary edition of Oops!... I Did It Again was also released on vinyl, a highly-collectible format these days. The double LP is spread out across four sides of music, featuring several B-sides, relatively unknown tracks, and a number of remixes — including two brand new cuts never before featured on a full-length. Pressed on red/purple colored wax, the records came with additional goodies, including a new cover and a 20-page booklet with photos of the Grammy winner. Fans were quick to purchase the $100 release, which has already sold out on Spears's website. Spears dropped Oops!... I Did It Again on May 16, 2000, which aligns perfectly with today's release. The project hit even harder than her introductory ...Baby One More Time, which reinvigorated the market for teen pop. The title track was the biggest hit from the album, and it was followed by major successes like 'Lucky' and 'Stronger.' Oops!... I Did It Again easily conquered the Billboard 200 and has since been certified diamond for moving at least 10 million copies in the U.S. alone.
