Britney Spears Spends $30,000 On Stripping ‘Gimme More’ Music Video; Jive Records Discourage Shooting

August 6th, 2007 by Castina

Britney Spears spent $30,000 on the music video for comeback single ‘Gimme More’ because she was going against the wishes and advice of her label, Jive Records.

The video, shot in a Los Angeles warehouse, features Britney pole dancing in a tiny black dress and thigh high boots.

“There’s no real reason for her to pay for a video herself unless it’s about creative control,” says an insider.

“If the label pays for the video, they hire the director and the rest of the creative team.”

“I suspect this is her wanting to steam ahead and answer her critics now, while her label wants to wait.”

I personally used to like Britney, but now shes just a complete slut! Everyone used to love her music and i would blast it in the car. But then, there a point in which she was getting older, which is completely understandable, but she just got way to out of hand and especially when she got married to Kevin. That is just when everything got out of wack with her. Even though at one time, she was getting better so i had a little more confidence with her and i thought that she was able to handle everything, but i guess i was wrong. I think that she will just end up like Anna Nicole Smith.
Oh yeah, P.S.- Who gives their mother a letter saying that they can’t see her children, especially by handing it to them!
