Britney Spears goes 'Ooh La La' for 'Smurfs 2'

Los Angeles: Britney Spears is going 'Ooh La La' for the Smurfs with a song for upcoming summer movie 'The Smurfs 2,' movie studio Sony Pictures said on Wednesday.

"I have always loved the Smurfs as a kid and now my boys are the biggest Smurfs fans EVER. I wanted to surprise them with a song in the movie," the pop singer and mother of two said in a statement.

Her recording 'Ooh La La' will play at the end credits for 'The Smurfs 2,' a part animated, part live family comedy due for release on July 31.

Spears, 31, is working on a new studio album following her 'Femme Fatale' release in 2011, and is in talks for a long-term contract to perform in Las Vegas.

She released her latest single 'Scream & Shout' in November last year in collaboration with rapper Will.i.am and quit her job as a judge on 'The X Factor' earlier this year after failing to boost the audience for the TV talent show.

Britney Spears goes public with her new boyfriend

Los Angeles: Britney Spears has gone public with her new boyfriend David Lucado months after splitting from fiance Jason Trawick.

Wearing a vintage black and pink dress, the couple were photographed holding hands in public for the first time while walking across the parking lot of a mall in Thousand Oaks, California, reported Aceshowbiz.

A source said that the couple hit up several stores inside the high-end mall.

"She was here with her guy and she shopped for quite a while. She looked good! They were just casual and normal," a source said.

Spears and Lucado have reportedly been seeing each other for weeks as they have been on numerous outings together.

Previously, they were spotted having dinner on Valentine's Day, going on golf dates, and going to a tanning salon together.

Lucado is a 28-year-old Virginia native who does field research for a law firm. Spears split with Trawick early this year.
