LONDON: British Punk legend Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols is keen to write a song for the troubled pop star Britney Spears.

Thesun.co.uk reports Rotten saying, “I haven’t written a song for Spears yet, but I would love to. I’d like to help her out because there is a girl who needs some help. She’s been hurt and hurt is the root core essence of good music.” The two belong to different generations and genres of music, but have a few things in common. Rotten was kicked out of school for anti-social behaviour and Spears has displayed a lot of that sort of behaviour recently.
