Pop superstar Britney Spears has sold the rights to her entire music catalogue
Spears, 44, is said to have sold to independent music publisher Primary Wave on 30 December for around $200m (£146m).
The singer – whose protracted conservatorship long dictated her personal and professional life – is known for the hits …Baby One More Time, Oops!… I Did It Again, Toxic and Gimme More.
Primary Wave did not immediately respond to the BBC’s requests for comment. Representatives for Spears declined to comment.
In January 2024, the singer said she would “never return to the music industry”. Her last song was a duet released with Elton John in 2022.
Primary Wave has also acquired rights to the estates of Notorious BIG, Prince and Whitney Houston.
Details of the sale and the exact price of Spears’ catalogue have not been made public.
High-profile artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake, and Shakira recently sold their catalogues too.
