American singer Britney Spears made a comeback on Friday, releasing a duet with Elton John, in her first new job in six years, and after her 13-year guardianship ended last year.
Spears, 40, was promoting the song "Hold Me Closer", a remake of Elton John's 1971 song "Tiny Dancer", before releasing the song.
"My first song in six years," Spears wrote in a tweet this week.
It is really great to sing with one of the most classic men of our time.. I am so happy.. it is great for me.”
The legal guardianship that had controlled Spears' life and finances for 13 years ended in November.
The American singer became famous when her song "Baby One More Time" achieved great success in 1998.
After her father Jamie Spears' court-imposed guardianship ended in 2008, the father said his only goal was to help his daughter rehabilitate her career.
Spears indicated last December that she was not yet ready to return to the music industry.
Her last studio album, Glory, was in 2016.
A press release regarding the song "Hold Me Closer" stated that the two stars first met in 2014, and Spears expressed on Twitter a year later that she liked the song "Tiny Dancer", which sparked the idea of cooperating between them.
