Britney Spears dropped a sexy new single "Make Me" on Thursday night. The song is her first track from her upcoming ninth studio album and her first new music since her collab with Iggy Azalea last summer, "Pretty Girls."
The song itself is just okay -- but Brit-Brit's bod' is definitely on point!
Meanwhile on Thursday night, Katy Perry released her first song since 2013, a single called “Rise." The inspiring song will serve as NBC's soundtrack for the network's coverage of the Summer Olympics 2016 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The singer appeared in video message on the Today show on Friday, in which she said: “I was inspired to finish it now rather than save it for the album because of the overall mood of the world today. Now more than ever, there is a need for our world to unite. I know that together we can rise above the fear — in our country, and around the world."
The music video for “Rise,†shows footage from previous Olympic games and features athletes like Gabby Douglas, Missy Franklin, Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt.
The Olympics' Opening Ceremony will be held on Friday, August 5.
