Video No, Please Don’t
posted by on October 5 at 14:54 PM
Britney Spears’s new video, “Gimme More,” has leaked and wow, people, it isn’t pretty. I can’t embed it here, so here’s the synopsis: Blonde Britney talks to friends at a bar; she notices Brunette Britney, who strides over the the stripper pole in the middle of the room; she starts sort of vacantly circling the pole; Blonde Britney and friends smile; random guy appears in profile for a couple of frames; ass shots ensue. Britney famously broke down during the shooting of this video—reportedly sobbing, acting disoriented, and storming off the set—prompting Idolator to muse: “I’ve watched this clip four times now, and more and more it just looks like cutting-room-floor footage stitched together at the last minute in order to keep a flailing pop star’s career alive.” Ouch. The clip’s available here. For the sake of your eyes, don’t watch it.

Just to clarify "It's isn't not pretty" means it IS pretty which, as someone who subjected herself to 59 seconds of the video, I suspect you didn't mean.
Not to defend this crap, 'cause it is 100 percent crap, but how is this any worse than all the rest of the shit music videos in the world?
Also, that Built to Spill video posted on Line Out a bit ago...stupid, boring, slow and pointless. I didn't feel any more engaged than the Britney one.
That was tripe.
Wow...it certainly fits with her current standards...lots of scenes involving blurred vision and weird cuts to mimic her slipping in and out of consciousness and/or reality.
And @2...there are some good videos out there...check anything by Michel Gondry...
