Jesse Hughes tells of his love for the pop star

Eagles Of Death Metal's Jesse Hughes has offered to assist Britney Spears’ comeback.

The rocker has also expressed his love for Spears’ 2004 hit ‘Toxic’.

Speaking to MTV News, Hughes begged: “Britney, please let me help you, girl. I will do whatever you need to help you make that comeback.

Britney Spears' videos rock, and I don’t care how much she’s singing, writing or not writing – I just want to see that girl make a comeback and make more videos.”
