Britney Spears is giving her two young sons a grand entrance to show business.
The 31-year-old singer is making a song for the soundtrack of the upcoming Smurfs movie and ,for the music video, decided to include her boys — 7-year-old Sean Preston and 6-year-old Jayden.
Britney Spears had hinted that she wanted to include her two young boys in the upcoming song. Earlier this month, while she in the studio recording “Ooh La La,” the song featured in the new Smurfs movie, she tweeted that she was working on a song “for all my boys.”
Will.i.am, who has been working with Britney in the studio , said this will be her most personal album to day. Recording on the rest of the album was expected to start sometime this month .
Will.i.am noted:
“I said, ‘Let’s talk about what you’re excited about. Let’s talk about things you’ve done in you career, what you’re happy about. Let’s talk about spending time with your kids, let’s talk about your breakup. Let’s talk about how now you’re single, how independent you might feel’ … I’m really excited about that and honored that she trusts me. I don’t want to let her down.”
Brittney Spears debuted the “Ooh La La” single on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Monday morning and revealed that her two sons knew their way around a set.
“They were actually really, really good on set,” she told Seacrest . “They were, like, acting, and my oldest son, Preston, was right on cue every time they would tell him to do something … Later on I got to see what they actually did on camera and it was adorable.”
It helps that her boys seemed obsessed with the Smurfs. Spears said they’ve seen the first movie “a million trillion times.”
With their appearance in the music video for “Ooh La La,” Sean Preston and Jayden have a leg up on their mom. Britney Spears didn’t make her show business debut until she appeared on Star Search at age 10.
