"We wanted to do something different, something I've never done
before, so that was probably the coolest thing we could come up
with," Spears told radio host Elvis Duran on Monday (29Aug16).
"He's (G-Eazy) so sweet! He's got a lot of swag, he's got the whole
cool thing going on.
"I got to do some of his song... and so it just made it more
interesting for me. My kids think he's fricking cool! They're like,
'Mum! You're cool now!' I'm like, 'Thanks!' That's all I had to
do!"
Britney's performance at Sunday's (28Aug16) VMAs came just two days
after the release of her latest album, Glory, which she told Duran
is one of the most important projects she has ever worked on.
"I've spent so much time on this record it means a lot to me...,"
she explained. "I think that now that I'm older, I'm more up to
experiment more and I'm more creative with the people just to try
different things because I've been doing it for a while now, so
it's fun to change it up."
Meanwhile, Britney is auctioning off the outfit she wore onstage at
the New York awards show to raise cash for aid relief in her
flooded home state of Louisiana.
The singer, who is originally from Kentwood, set up a special
contest in conjunction with the American Red Cross and crowdfunding
site CrowdRise, offering fans who donated $10 to the cause the
chance to win the sparkly outfit in a raffle.
One winner will pick up the outfit and an autographed copy of her
new album. A separate winner and a guest were flown to New York
City to attend the VMAs and meet Britney prior to her
performance.
