Could Britney Spears be Elton John‘s “Tiny Dancer”?

According to a Page Six report, the pair have recorded the classic 1972 track together as a duet, sending a shockwave of excitement through the Britney Army at the prospect of new music from their queen in more than six years.

More from Billboard

“The way I’m praying to the Gods above that #tinydancer is true, that @eltonofficial and @britneyspears are duetting,” one fan tweeted, while another commented, “Tiny Dancer is the perfect song for Britney, cause she’s tiny and a dancer.”

“I’m not normally this emotional about music releases but I just started tearing up at the possibility of Britney singing TINY DANCER with ELTON JOHN,” a third fan account wrote about the rumor.

Billboard has reached out to reps for both artists for confirmation.

If the report is, in fact, true, the collaboration would be the pop princess’ first new music since the release of her 2016 studio album Glory — including deluxe tracks “Mood Ring,” “Swimming in the Stars” and the Backstreet Boys-assisted “Matches,” all of which were unveiled in 2020. The duet would also mark Spears’ official return to music since the end of the 13-year legal conservatorship that controlled every aspect of her life from 2008 to late last year.

While the icon returned from her honeymoon earlier this month with husband Sam Asghari following their exclusive, star-studded wedding, she also recently treated fans to a grown up, a cappella rendition of “…Baby One More Time” on Instagram.

Meanwhile, Sir Elton earned his biggest hit in decades last year by teaming up with Dua Lipa for “Cold Heart (PNAU Remix),” which ultimately peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent 36 weeks atop the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart.

“Tiny Dancer,” originally included on John’s 1971 album Madman Across the Water, was released as a single in 1972 and peaked at No. 41 on the Hot 100.
