About
“Womanizer” was released as the lead single and first track from Britney Spears‘ sixth studio album, Circus (2008). It’s basically saying, ‘We know what you’re up to.’ It’s about guys cheating on girls. It’s a girl anthem. That’s why I like it. —Britney Spears on Z100 It was well received by contemporary critics, with reviewers praising its hook, melody, and empowering lyrics.
