She appeared pregnant and nude on the cover back in 2006, but now Britney Spears just looks happy and healthy in a low-cut white dress on the cover of Harper's Bazaar. In the latest issue of the magazine, now being previewed online, the singer opens up about her life.

"I'm pretty normal, you know? Like I said, the type of day I love is just like everybody else's. I'm like everybody else," she says in the issue. When asked about her music videos, she recalls fondness for a clip from 2001. " 'Overprotected.' I just think it says a lot. It was directed so well, it was really colorful and the dancing was amazing," she says of the splashy clip.

Spears seems content with the way fans have been reacting to her Femme Fatale album, which dropped in March. "I've worked so hard on this album, so it's really refreshing," she said. "I feel like I'm drinking a tall glass of homemade sweet tea on a really hot, beautiful day."

Spears also talked about getting in shape for her highly anticipated summer tour. "I love to dance, so it's very exciting," she said. "The tour rehearsals have been going really well. I think it will be my best show yet."

In addition to the cover shot, another image from the magazine has hit the Web. It features Spears smiling in front of a wall painted with graffiti wearing a flowing, black star-print dress.

Not only has Spears been readying her summer tour, she has also been preparing to shoot her next music video, for the song "I Wanna Go." Spears will be working with Chris Marrs Piliero (Ke$ha, the Black Eyed Peas) on the clip, which is filming later this month in Los Angeles. The track is the third single off her album, following "Hold It Against Me" and "Till the World Ends."

While she's always moving forward to the next project, Spears did take the time to reflect on one very important onstage kiss with Madonna at the VMAs nearly eight years ago. "I actually saw her a couple of weeks ago at a party," Britney recalled. "I guess she's really taught me to stay true to myself. That seems like a simple thing to say, but she taught me through action, not just by saying it. There are so many people around you that have opinions, but you just have to listen to your instincts."

Emma Roberts Visits "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"

Drawing an end to the work week with another television appearance, Emma Roberts visited "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" in New York City on Friday evening (June 10).

The always-stylish niece of Julia Roberts took to the Rockefeller Center studios as she sat down to chat about her new movie "The Art of Getting By" - which hits theaters on June 17th.

Hoping to build up interest, Miss Roberts tweeted prior to the episode's airing, "Everyone catch me on Jimmy Fallon tonight! Obsessed w that guy!"

As for her movie, "The Art of Getting By" is about "George, a lonely and fatalistic teen who's made it all the way to his senior year without ever having done a real day of work, who is befriended by Sally, a popular but complicated girl who recognizes in him a kindred spirit."

Up next for Roberts is a project titled "Celeste and Jesse Forever," in which she plays a pop star with the film centering around a divorcing couple (played by Rashida Jones and Andy Samberg) who are in the midst of logistic woes while attempting to move forward while getting back in the dating pool.

Of her co-stars, Emma recently told MTV News, "Right now I'm doing a romantic comedy called 'Celeste and Jesse Forever,' and I'm obsessed with both of them (Jones and Samberg). And I'm playing a pop star? Everyone in the movie is hilarious; it?s a great group to get to work with."
