The “Toxic” songstress recorded the single, titled “Ooh La La,” for the summer blockbuster Smurfs 2, Columbia Pictures/Sony Pictures Animation announced Wednesday. Britney originally recorded the tune for her sons, Sean, seven, and Jayden, six, but is ecstatic that it will now be part of the Smurfs 2 soundtrack.
Spears announced the news on both Facebook and Twitter:
“Remember that surprise song I recorded for my boys? It’s coming soon! #OohLaLa for #TheSmurfs2 :)…I have always loved the Smurfs as a kid and now my boys are the biggest Smurfs fans EVER. I wanted to surprise them with a song in the movie. I know they’ll think it’s Smurftastic.”
