Britney Spears, Framed

Posted Thu Oct 11, 2007 7:03am PDT by John Kordosh in Framed

We can say one thing about Britney Spears: the exciting and vivacious songstress has been making headlines at an alarming pace, and usually not for her music.

But we here at Framed were excited as heck when her new video was released last week.  Of course, we're always looking for videos from the stars, but a Britney video is on a whole 'nother level.

A better level.  A superior level.

And that's why Britney's video for "Gimme More," in which Britney plays a brunette stripper and a blonde patron of the strip joint, is our featured video this week. The video is sure to stir controversy, but that's been Britney's stock-in-trade lately.  And, as reader Bludolphinchix01 posted right here in Framed last week: "Her voice alone makes this video a must see!"

Bludolphinchix was talking about Amy Lee, of course, but you catch our drift!

What Is Framed??  To readers new to our blog, welcome!  Here's how Framed works: we pore through hundreds of great videos every week, and then pick one that we feel will resonate most with our readers.  After we do, we "freeze" key frames and then write our own (sometimes impertinent) captions to those frames.

It's proven to be a winning formula for, lo, these many weeks, and we hope you'll like reading Framed every bit as much as we like writing it.  Your comments and observations are always welcome, so, please, let us know what you think.

 

 

1 - "Toast!  To Britney's newfound sobriety!"

 

2 - "Look, Britney - it's, like, you, if you were a whore-ish stripper instead of a legitimately talented singer-slash-dancer!"

 

3 - Light Britney was split off from Dark Britney by a nuclear explosion and the combination of many kryptonites!

 

4 - Insider's note: the pole is working for scale!

 

5 - A shout-out to Mm Ra, The-Mirror-Who-Is-More-Than-Man, is always fitting!

 

6 - "Look!  It's K-Fed's ‘career!'"

 

7 - Britney's old friend, Dealie Crankerson, came by to help everyone stay "focused."  He's the best!

 

8 - Britney's ability to mentally photograph everyone who looks at her on the Internet has left science intrigued, confused.

 

9 - Incredibly, this caption is actually being type-synched!

 

10 - Fame vs. Everything Else!  Fame wins!

 

11 - As regular Framed readers know, we occasionally stop the video just because we can.

 

12 - "Judge Gordon!  You?  Here??!"

yea im sure she was thinking of her kids' custody when making this music video

I want all the people who dont believe that Britney is talented to go on youtube.com and google Gimme More dance routines. Because of Britneys songs, she has created music that TOP choreographers are using, as well as myself, since i teach dance in Northern California. i'll even give you a few links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0LxQ-mQSh8 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0x41eEip-0&NR=1 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7Si7fANsf8 and there is plenty more where that came from. So just remember before you go doggin the girl, that she IS talented, and knows how to make a hot track, and definately a hot album! Shes here to entertain us with her music, not her life! She'll get it together, meanwhile, lay off her, and enjoy her album.

I just love this [profane]in song it ROCkS no matter what eneyone else think

Oh, come on...she is a wore that shows her "Britney" all over the place. She has back handles and needs to put on some clothes or lose a few pounds. She is nothing more than a skanky has-been! I bet moms wont be rushing out to by this album for there kids...unless they want their kid to end up like her..a stripper humping a pole. So sad! Check yourself back in!!

Girl you are fine as ever!Don't stop what you do, just get i right.The role you play is a mother now, and we raise our children to grow in the image we show them.You are beautiful and have been blessed,both with talent, and beautiful children. Raise them as you know you can,with the Lords blessings, and prayer you will be the mother, and talent God intended you to be!Don,t forget that God is always by your side, and as long as you have faith,and beleive that with all your heart,you will continue to be blessed.Just don't let satan in, cause he is always there waiting to be let in to ruin everything in the blink.We are not perfect,God knows this. We will mess up and sin daily, but we must never forget the blessings, and where they came from!If we were perfect, Jesus would not have had to give his life for us,so just live your life,and raise your little blessings thanks for all we have been giving. You and your family will be in my prayers,i wish you success and happiness in your blessed life, Brittney.............Rico(Santa Barbara)

I have seen her dance before (back in the day) and I know she can move a whole lot better than that. She did not really dance in this or move her hips at all. She just did the same little weak hip thing over and over and over! come on honey, I know ya still got it in ya. bring it back and consentrate! Get back into your groove.

I love Britney. She is a sex goddess and so what if she gets loaded and parties she can
party with me anytime.I love her new video and I loved her on the MTV awards. All the media condemnations of her behavior make me sick. Don't they realize millions of young girls are just like her so SHUT UP! by the way I'm over 50. ps this goes for Lindsey and Paris as well.
