Upon its release, Femme Fatale received mostly positive reviews from critics, who complimented the album's production and Spears' continued forward-thinking. Others criticized it for Spears's supposed lack of involvement and processed vocals. Commercially, the album has become successful, debuting at number one in the United States with sales of 276,000 (breaking Spears's previous record for the youngest female artist with five number one albums), giving her her sixth number one album. The album also debuted at number one in six other countries while peaking inside the top ten in every other country except one, a feat Spears had not accomplished in over a decade since the release of her second album, Oops!... I Did It Again, in May 2000. Femme Fatale was Spears's final album with long time label Jive Records following Jive's closure in October 2011.
"Hold It Against Me" was released as the lead single from the album and peaked atop the charts in seven countries, including the United States and Canada, while peaking inside the top five in over seven others. The album's second single, "Till the World Ends", reached number one in South Korea, Poland and Russia while reaching number three in the United States and peaking inside the top ten positions in sixteen countries worldwide. It became Spears's best-performing song on US radio in her entire career. In August 2011, after becoming Spears's third album with three top-twenty singles, Femme Fatale became her first album to produce three top-ten singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart when "I Wanna Go" peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100. The fourth single "Criminal" turned out as a moderate hit, peaking inside the Top twenty in five countries. Spears promoted the album in a handful of television appearances and embarked on the Femme Fatale Tour.
