Another day, another rumor that Britney Spears is threatening to take over the teevee. This time, it's the freshly-gaypproved NBC Broadway musical Smash. We get it, Brit: you wanna stay relevant. But do audiences want to see Spears on Smash?

Following successful stints on Glee and How I Met Your Mother, Britney Spears's acting chops are about as well-seasoned as her pork chops. After Tweeting interest in one of the best show's on TV, social network momentum is boiling in an effort to help Spears buff up her acting resume with a role on Modern Family.

Britney?

Lourdes?!

Blue Ivy Carter??!

Instinct’s Top of 2011: Albums

We might not be able to catch a ball from more than three-yards, but our hand/eye jazz-hand/threaded-eye coordination is skilled enough to capture the pop-culture zeitgeist of the past year. We may have endured more blackouts than homes affected by Hurricane Irene in 2011, but our love for pop-culture allows its brightest gems to shine through our sober senses. Once again, Instinct has assigned two of its sassiest editors—Jeff Katz, Senior Editor, and Jonathan Higbee, Associate Web Editor—the task of assessing the year in pop-culture, and this year's bountiful list of favorites might include the most eclectic selections yet. To kick off the series, here are Instinct’s top albums of 2011.

The biggest comeback of the decade might have just reached its apex as Britney Spears announces that she is now engaged to True Blood knockoff Jason Trawick. Details follow. 

Hey, just because we’re gay doesn’t mean we don’t know a beautiful woman when we see one. And we’re not sure Men’s Health got it all right…

Happy 30th birthday, Britney Jean Spears! In honor reaching half-Madonna's-age this week, the Internet is fondling itself over the just-leaked "unreleased" track "Love 2 Love U," featuring samples from Her Madgesty's "La Isla Bonita." Follow the jump to listen to birthday-girl Brit's take on the classic.

A new track available on Britney Spears Live The Femme Fatale Tour deluxe CD/DVD release is ready for consumption, Instincters! Follow the jump to hear Britney get "Scary" (in ways that don't involve hair trimming shears, umbrellas or late-night barefoot gas-station hopping) and let us know if you heart or hate the new song!

The global military obsession of the new millennium might not be, as previously thought, Libya or Afghanistan, but instead lip-dubbing Britney Spears. The latest to tackle "Hold It Against Me" is the sanitary division of the Swiss Army, which has gone all 90s boy band by naming itself the SanBoys.

Featuring her trademark lip-syncing and body-writhing skills and a svelte body from four-dozen trenti Frapps ago is this Britney Spears video set to Marilyn Manson's (by way of The Eurythmics) "Sweet Dreams." It was recorded to play during a recent Britney tour (some say Circus, others say Femme Fatale), but previously unseen by the general public. Follow the jump to watch Britney's "Sweet Dreams"!

This should do wonders for those gay rumors. After the jump, find out why we are regretting hanging up our dance shoes so many years ago.

Forget dancing y’all, Britney is all about the acting! Check out her skills in the brand-new “Criminal” softcore porn music video after the jump.
