Britney Spears turned some heads by covering Aerosmith’s “Walk This Way” with the one and only Steven Tyler. She revealed what the experience was like. Interestingly, “Walk This Way” was a hit twice.
What Britney Spears thought of performing Aerosmith’s ‘Walk This Way’ In her 2023 memoir The Woman in Me , Spears recalled an incredible career moment. “I was performing at the 2001 Super Bowl halftime show alongside Aerosmith, Mary J. Blige, Nelly, and NSYNC,” she remembered.
“ Justin [Timberlake] and the rest of his band had special gloves that shot fountains of sparks! “I sang ‘Walk This Way’ wearing a sexy version of a football uniform, with shiny silver pants, a crop shirt, and an athletic sock on one of my arms,” she added. “I was brought to Steven Tyler’s trailer to meet him right before the show, and his energy was incredible: he was such an idol to me. When we finished, the stadium lit up with fireworks.
” Britney Spears said she was ‘almost single-handedly keeping some magazines in business’ The “Womanizer” singer put “Walk This Way” into the greater context of her career. “The halftime show was just one of the seemingly endless good things happening for me,” she wrote. “I landed the ‘most powerful woman’ spot on the Forbes list of most powerful celebrities — the following year I’d be number one overall.
I learned that tabloids were making so much money off photos of me, I was almost single-handedly keeping so.
