I’m thinking she should have debuted the video at the VMA’s instead of performing. Your thoughts on the video.

Oh, Britney. How far you’ve fallen from the “Baby One More Time” and “U Drive Me Crazy” days. No one ever really applauded you for having an exceptional voice, but you sure could dance. Play up your strength and don’t phone in your videos.
Please, go back to Kiddie Jazz and redeem yourself!
cris | October 5, 2007 at 9:46 am
It is a terrific mess! I feel so bad for her! She seems oblivious to the fact that she is not moving or even lypsyncing properly:-( Her record company should be ashamed of themselves for releasing it. She needs to quit doing anything else (performance wise) until she can really get back to a level that makes us remember the old Britney. It’s not about weight it’s about lethargy. I wish someone would help her by preventing crap like this from coming out.
Akare | October 5, 2007 at 9:47 am
BORING!!!! Same shit than at the BMA, step step ho, step step ho, I laugh at how they had to tint her film so you would not see how she looks like a sweaty pig.
Shoewhore | October 5, 2007 at 9:51 am
The video made me cry. Britney makes me sad. Her schtick is now tired and misguided. Britney needs a vacation from herself.
Jisright | October 5, 2007 at 9:57 am
My friend says that she’s just one step away from doing porn…I think this video proves just that!
kris | October 5, 2007 at 9:58 am
PATHETIC. And that is the nicest thing I can say. I don’t know where to even start. What a shame that she has turned into THAT. And honestly, I agree that her record label should not release a cd until she straightens up. The scary thing is, I hear this ‘video’ was her ‘vision.’–She wants to be a stripper– ok, well, she is well on her way to that if she keeps making crap like this.
Hannah | October 5, 2007 at 10:03 am
ugh it sucks! she doesnt even dance…she just kind of wiggles around…it looks like a video some random slut would make with her friends, not britney.
Applespice | October 5, 2007 at 10:09 am
I can’t view the video (work comp) but I remember reading a statement from her record company that she did this video on her own, paid for it out of her own money, and told the director what she wanted it to look like. Jive did not fund nor release this video, she did it all.

I love how it’s all blurry the entire time. Pretty much what I imagine the world looks like through her eyes.
JRo | October 5, 2007 at 10:30 am
Briiiiitneeeey, you don’t have to put on the red light! Get off the pole Ma. If you’re not going to perform a dance routine, I wash my hands of you. I also love that her solution to getting in shape is just using an elongated lens to give the appearance of being thinner. It’s like she doesn’t get that she has to make a comeback. There are no laurels to rest on Brit. Gimme more.
HAHAHAHAHA | October 5, 2007 at 10:31 am
What the hell? She just kind of walked around a poll with a wig on. Then filmed herself laughing at herself with another wig on…
Jennifer | October 5, 2007 at 10:33 am
I don’t think it’s a bad video! Not as good as her old ones were, but better than her VMA performance for sure and not bad..
tina | October 5, 2007 at 10:34 am
I love this blog, I think it’s great!
The thing that I don’t understand about this whole thing with Britney is not so much about her but about eveyone else. It seems the judge gave the kids to FedEd, I guess he does not do drugs that bottom of the barrel idiot(that’s what the judge thinks). First of all Britney has people taking care of her kids and lots of money and they don’t look neglected as both their cheeks are bulding out of their face. The courts should worry about kids who have to live in filth but they are not worried about those, they would rather take away kids who live in the lap of luxury. Also, if everyone is concerned about Britney getting a life, they should get one, she has a life, she is a multi-millionare and drives a brand new mercedies every day!
Harry Kunt | October 5, 2007 at 10:39 am
I think she still looks “pretty good”.
She’s not fat.
I kinda like her.
Shannon | October 5, 2007 at 10:40 am
Bunny, I think you’ve said it all…
Caitrin | October 5, 2007 at 10:41 am
And here I thought this post was about her video, rather than her inability to care for her own children.
Silly me.
The video kind of reminds me of a cross between an old Scandal video and some of the New Kids on the Block black-and-white videos from back in the day when MTV still played videos.
It’s not as horrific as Paula Abdul’s “Cold-Hearted Snake,” but it’s still fairly hideous.
cdawg | October 5, 2007 at 10:41 am
Tina, you miss the point
Just because kids live in the lap of luxury does NOT mean they are being loved and cared for properly. There are plenty of trailer park kids who are loved and cared for and paid attention to. And there are plenty of rich kids whose parents neglect them. Just like Brit’s, those kids need real stability and parenting.
anyways, the video is a hot mess. she looks pretty dang good however, slim and trim and well, hot. the video sucks though, and the editing was horrible. just a few frames of anything BUT her dancing (if thats what you call it) on the pole. maybe it’d be cooler, if blond britney got up on stage and started dancing with brunette britney…
Caitrin | October 5, 2007 at 10:45 am
Cdawg, behold the power of video editing. Soft focus, a little fuzzy, and a lot of stretching to make her seem leaner than she is.
I’m not saying she’s fat – clearly, she’s not. However, we’ve all seen the stills from that fateful shoot.
dhyucvwu | October 5, 2007 at 10:52 am
the blurriness and graininess of the video works great because you can’t really tell it’s a fat bald mess. the “dancing” is horrendous, the song is crappy, and what you can see of britbrit, she looks like shit. but we knew that from the photos taken from the few days of the video shoot. the record company and producers should be ashamed, whether they financed it or not. but still, there will be many sadsacks to spend their parents money on this shit, so i guess, put it out. but her “career” is definently over. she should go ahead and spend the rest of her money on crack, meth, wild turkey, and fried chicken, and go live behind wal-mart.
Alyssa | October 5, 2007 at 10:57 am
I thought she looked hot. I liked the video. I want to see any one of you get up there and shoot a video, sing and dance. Like you would even know what to do!! Walk a mile in her shoes and you would have a different opinion, I am sure. She is beautiful and hopefully she will find her way back into your cold, mean hearts.
lee lee | October 5, 2007 at 10:59 am
I like it, the old blonde “good britney” looking at the now dark caricature of her former self. Deep.. the dancing not so good, her ass don’t look like it did eh?
kim | October 5, 2007 at 10:59 am
I’m thinking she had an ass double.
Shasta | October 5, 2007 at 11:01 am
Two things.
One – how many times can they recycle the same shot? Oh, I’d say about 50.
Two – if you are not capable of doing any stipper pole maneuvers except dancing near it and grabbing onto it, don’t feature the damn thing in your video.
MidgetPig | October 5, 2007 at 11:24 am
She’s wearing a wig.. and it SO looks like a wig! ha!
elisa | October 5, 2007 at 11:24 am
TOTALLY LOVE THIS SITE!
Unfitney is such a loser and this video is really bad! The pole dancing! the wardrobe! the wigs! the classy “not so classy” blond brit brit!The psyco faces! the same shot like 50 times! the song! She looks cheap! She needs to pull it together! her career is sooooo over… tragic!
nastybugger | October 5, 2007 at 11:29 am
“I want to see any one of you get up there and shoot a video, sing and dance. Like you would even know what to do!!”
um…for someone who MADE THEIR CAREER doing those things, her performance was pretty bad. if I had been trained as she had, voice coaching, a choreographer, and money coming out of my ass, you can BET I’d do it a lot better than she did.
compared to what we know she can do, this piece of garbage is…well, a piece of garbage.
Persistent Cat | October 5, 2007 at 11:36 am
Alyssa, I’m pretty sure any of us could have done that video. What was the difficulty, dress slutty, dance slutty near a pole and lip-synch a song. Hmmm, you can go to any club on a Friday or Saturday night and pretty much all the girls on the dancefloor can do that.
I love the argument, “I’d like to see you try.” Always such a lame point. When it’s your job, I expect to see something a little better.
Ok, I don’t hate the song. I’ll download it off Limewire or something rather than pay for it and if I can’t have it for free, I’ll be ok without it. But the video….. because it’s Britney, it’s a terrible video. Even Toxic was a great video. While she writhed around that pole, I at least expect a high kick or something. No, she just gyrated. Remember the dancing in Me Against the Music or Slave 4 You (or whatever the title was)? They were great.
As someone else said, I too expected them to bring together “good” and “bad” Britney but if this was “her vision,” there was no vision, she just saw a pretty wig she wanted to wear.
zuzuspetals | October 5, 2007 at 11:37 am
a mess :(
M | October 5, 2007 at 11:37 am
First of all, Alyssa, I’m pretty sure that if you gave anyone the right producer, director, makeup artist, stylist and choreographer they could make a video just as good, if not better. No, I wouldn’t know what to do, that’s why you hire people that DO know what to do. The point is that she refused any help on this video and it shows – I miss the old Britney.
I think the blonde Britney looked good (from what I could see, as it was mostly the brunette Britney that was shown). I really hope she can get to a place where she’s happy – I really do.
As for walking a mile in her shoes – I totally wouldn’t want to do that, you’re right. However, she put herself there – she’s the one who allegedly calls the paparazzi to tell them where she is. She’s the one who doesn’t wear underwear to the club. She’s the one who bombed at the VMAs. I bet, and of course I’m just speculating, that her “shoes” would be a lot more comfortable if she got the hell out of the limelight and cleaned herself up (detoxed, sought counselling, just plain got healthy, physically and mentally).
Until that happens, I’ll be wishing her the best and hoping that she can get back on track.
Ruby Jackson | October 5, 2007 at 11:38 am
ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz…. it says a LOT that this is a video about a stripper, and ALL THEY SHOW is her FACE.
Alyssa | October 5, 2007 at 11:38 am
nasty bugger:
are you a boy or a girl? b/c as a boy you would have no idea what it is like to be married to a psychic vampire then get pregnant twice, deliver them and then try to get your old ‘moves’ back. i thought she looked hot and you are obviously a cynic and a mean, nasty piece of garbage. boy or girl, she is hotter than you could possibly hope to be.
i stand by what i said: you go and get trained, have voice coaching, and work with a choreographer and YOU WILL SUCK!!. and while you are at it…try to think of a way to take out your bitterness.
peachpie | October 5, 2007 at 11:45 am
i think persistant cat hit the nail on the head. the perfect description for the video: britney saw a pretty wig she wanted to wear.
-the end-
Fashion Girl | October 5, 2007 at 11:57 am
That shit was hot…
Stop hating on her. That song is off the hoook to and it makes you want to dance. I agree…she should have premeiered the video at the VMA instead of perfoming like a zombie….I love it though. I hope she makes it through her tough time. I can imagine having a life like hers. Even her using the bathroom was on the news…WTF??? Who cares. To be honest I think the media is MOST to blame for her down fall. NO ONE has it as bad. That’s why Ben and Jen had to break up…this kind of publicity can eat you up in sooo many different ways.
Persistent Cat | October 5, 2007 at 11:57 am
Why do people treat pregnancy like it’s some sort of physical affliction? Really Alyssa, BFD that she had two kids. She’s got trainers and all sorts of cash at her disposal. I take martial arts and I train with a woman that tested for her black belt two months after giving birth. She was always very healthy and likes exercise so it was nothing for her and it WASN’T HER JOB to do that.
I’m so sick of the “if you had kids.” I know a lot of women who’ve had kids who look great and are very fit and active. I also know some who saw kids as a chance to let themselves go and get fat and dress badly out in the suburbs.
Yes, a lot of people could have done a better job. God, what was that awful show that used to be on MTV or MuchMusic or both or whatever where they would let people re-create music videos. Those were better then what we just saw here and they were contest winners.
nastybugger | October 5, 2007 at 11:58 am
“psychic vampire”? never heard that one to describe K-fed, but OK…
alyssa, whether I’m a boy or girl is irrelevant. all of those things that you mention, her marriage, her kids, etc…those were her choices. She pursued K-fed, though he was already with someone…a pregnant someone. she chose to have his children, knowing all the while that he left his pregnant girlfriend to be with her.
and it seems to me that her second kid is a year old now. I think that’s plenty of time to get back in shape and “get your moves back”. again, considering that she made her career doing this, and knowing what she’s capable of, this is pretty lame.
and there’s no need for insults; I didn’t say anything personal against you, but since we’re offering opinions on each other, I’ll let you in on mine of you.
vapid, empty-headed child.
killorn | October 5, 2007 at 12:03 pm
Speaking of Paula Abdul, there is some serious Promise of a New Day video stretching going on here.
Alyssa | October 5, 2007 at 12:07 pm
nasty:
yes, she chose all those things and yes, she should have made wiser choices. like anyone is perfect. but you keep casting those stones. and you picked me out of all those comments and kept with the bitter crap. and that is all i commented on.
i defended her. i would again. projection is great, isn’t it? and gee, how could a vapid, empty-headed child know how to come up with an optimistic comment instead of all the nasty things being said by everyone. no, it isn’t personal as long as you get to say whatever you want and no one says differently.
Persistant Cat | October 5, 2007 at 12:19 pm
Well there you have it. Since the comments were optimistic, you are the better person. Congrats on that one.
nastybugger | October 5, 2007 at 12:22 pm
what “stones” am I casting, alyssa? as you are entitled to your opinion, I am entitled to mine. and my opinion is that, based on what we know she’s capable of, and what she has at her disposal, this is crap.
I chose your comment because it’s the one that I happened to disagree with. it’s ridiculous for you to say that none of us could do better since you don’t know any of us, what we do, what we’re capable of, or what we look like.
and no, yours was more than just a comment. it was a personal attack. I didn’t insult you in my first post, just disagreed with you and told you why. YOU chose to get nasty toward another poster. I simply responded in kind.
how could a vapid empty-headed child come up with your comments? beats me, but somehow you managed.
Chaz | October 5, 2007 at 12:22 pm
I thought the director did a decent job working around the fact that she can’t really perform anymore. It reminded me of the “videos” that Tupac has been coming out with since he died.
And the song itself sucks out loud, but we already knew that.
lala | October 5, 2007 at 12:25 pm
the song is actually not bad…
but how could anyone greenlight the video or the vma performance?
that is just cruel.abusive.
If anyone really cared,they would kindly say’no’.
she really needs some good people in her life,not all of these creepy,user-poseurs.
Zekers | October 5, 2007 at 12:31 pm
Persistant Cat,
I can’t comment on Britney…just can’t… BUT
I have a cat story for you. I told you I adopted a couple of strays. One of them decided that she was tough enough to take on a pre-historic-looking crane that was fishing in my pond. The cat looks at me, looks at the crane, puffs herself up so she looked twice as big and starts dancing sideways along the edge of the pond. The crane sees her so she takes a flying leap and tries (doing a complete backflip in the process) to snag the crane out of the air. She dreams big that one!!! I laughed my butt off!
Caitrin | October 5, 2007 at 12:33 pm
I’m still waiting to learn what a “psychic vampire” is…
Vonnie | October 5, 2007 at 12:41 pm
Mediocrity at its best
Chrissy | October 5, 2007 at 12:47 pm
She needs to differentiate herself from all the other women in the world who can do what she does with that pole! Otherwise why is she special? I liked this song when i heard it on the radio. But the video is crap and has ruined it for me. That usually only happens, for me, with hip hop songs.
She’s like an accident happening and us spectators just can’t tear ourselves away. Tragic, really.
Kat | October 5, 2007 at 12:48 pm
What the hell was that? I think the most entertaining part of the video was when she is laughing at herself at the bar just as I am snickering to myself. Furthermore, her ass jiggled waaay more than it needed to. Poor thing. I don’t mind the song, but I think that she is past the point of no return
Ruby Jackson | October 5, 2007 at 12:50 pm
“psychic vampire”… maybe they meant “psyche vampire”
… which is a lot like an “emotional vampire”. Someone who takes and takes from your psyche, your emotions, but never gives back. They bleed you dry until the relationship collapses, then they move on to someone new, with a fresh mind or free-flowing emotions to tap from.
Kitten | October 5, 2007 at 12:53 pm
For a few seconds, you see flashes of the old Britney in there–but the rest is crap. She doesn’t work the pole, just does the same four or five spins/bumps/shakes with it. What’s the point of that then? Not too impressed-but WAY better than the VMAs
1 alright mama | October 5, 2007 at 1:02 pm
I am a mother of 2 boys, and not every person has the same pregnancy, or easy weight loss blessings as others. Also the poor girl went through not nine months, but pretty much two years of pregnancy. That’s not easy on a body. The girl looks amazing. I don’t know too many people after having children that wouldn’t kill for the body she has now! Besides, people are such jokes(if she was thin she’d be in the catagory of lindsay lohan and nicole ritchie on her way to deaths door)The girl may have problems, but does anyone ever stop and put the shoe on the other foot, if it was anyone of you, seeing the mean cruel world out there, and what there saying about your life every second of every day. Do you think it helps to feel that everyone hates you, and that that there waiting for you to screw up and trip on stage helps her performance any. I think she showed true guts, after months of ridacule to even stand on that stage at the mtvs and say hello, let alone being expected to perform like she did 2 years ago. If it was someone in any of your families you would die to hear the way people are talking, and you’d defend them. And i don’t care how rich she is, if that was my child i would get her the help that she so desperatly needs, nomatter what security gate i would have to break down. I think it’s time for people to stop looking at the celebrities like there not real people with real problems, and help them instead of following them around waiting for them to screw up. Just cause you’re watching it on t.v doesn’t make it a t.v drama, it’s a young womens life with her two beautiful children.
