Britney's Latest: Blackout




Los Angeles (E! Online) - Britney Spears has finally shed some light on the title of her new album.

Jive Records announced Friday that the embattled pop princess had dubbed her forthcoming oeuvre Blackout, a reference to "to blocking out negativity and embracing life fully." The album is due for release Nov. 13.

In addition to the chart-topping single "Gimme More," Blackout will feature the songs "Heaven on Earth," "Radar," "Piece of Me" and "Break the Ice," per Billboard.

The video for "Gimme More" hit iTunes Friday and was due to premiere on MTV's TRL Monday. In the video (which was briefly available on YouTube before being yanked), Spears stars as dual versions of herself—a blond-haired good girl curiously watching a brunette bad girl perform a pole-dancing routine.

Despite her success on the singles charts, the past week has been a tough one for Spears.

On Monday, a judge stripped her of custody of her sons, one-year-old Jayden James and two-year-old Sean Preston, turning them over to Kevin Federline full-time.

Though Spears is allowed to visit the boys every other day, her sessions will be observed by a monitor, who has the authority to "terminate visitation immediately if any conduct or action by [Spears] endangers the minor children," according to the judge's order.

The next hearing in the matter is scheduled for Oct. 26.

With very little in her life going her way, Spears may have finally decided to attempt to rebuild her relationship with her estranged family.

According to People, the pop star's mother and sister, Lynne and Jamie Lynn Spears, flew from Louisiana to Los Angeles on Friday evening.

"Brit really needed her mom," a source told the magazine. "So, Lynne flew out, and they met."

Perhaps in an attempt to evade the hordes of paparazzi, Lynne reportedly dropped by her daughter's Beverly Hills home at about 3 a.m., then drove the two of them back to Britney's new Malibu pad.

The mother-daughter duo had a public falling-out in June, when Britney was photographed handing Lynne a document that reportedly warned her to stay away from her grandsons if she had been taking any medication that could impair her judgment.
