After Elton John, Britney Spears to Collab With DJ Khaled?

DJ Khaled is eager to collaborate with Britney Spears on music. The hip-hop entrepreneur has a long history of working with many celebrities; among others, he has collaborated with Rihanna, Demi Lovato, Drake, and Justin Bieber. Khaled was questioned by a reporter for Extra about if he would be open to collaborating with either superstar following the success of Britney and Elton John's new song Hold Me Closer, which was released last month.

"To answer your question, of course I would, I am ready!" he exclaimed. "I would collaborate with anyone that's representing the love of the music... Collaborating is a beautiful thing. It is important that we come together and make great songs."

"God Did," Khaled's twelfth studio album, was just released. JAY-Z, John Legend, Lil Wayne, and Rick Ross all make cameos on the album's lead single, and the producer remarked that the Run This Town rapper considered it his best work to date.

"I played JAY-Z my album. He said it was my best album and I was blessed for him to get on a record that I produced, called God Did," the 46-year-old smiled. "It feels amazing because this is my 13th album and to name my thirteenth album God Did and to make my best album on my 13th album, that's a blessing. I am just grateful."

Meanwhile, regarding his collaboration with Britney Spears on their new song, "Hold Me Closer," Elton John had nothing but positive things to say. John admitted that they haven't spoken in private since the song was released, but it appears Spears is overjoyed with how "Hold Me Closer" turned out. She has been loving her return to the musical spotlight, tweeting about it on social media and exchanging beautiful video greetings with her friend Drew Barrymore.

Spears, though, is thinking about more than just her current triumph. She uploaded an uncensored, 22-minute voice memo about her life after the conservatorship on YouTube over the weekend. In it, she discusses the devastating effects the 13-year legal control over her life has had on her mental health, self-confidence, and relationships with her family.

Since the #FreeBritney movement took off and she was freed from the 13-year conservatorship, Spears has spoken out about what was really going on. She has staged an unusual public reckoning with the trauma and alleged abuse she underwent, including the cancellation of vacations, intrusions into her body, and control over her music, using court appearances and social media.
