With skin, snakes and smooches in her past MTV repertoire, there’s no telling what’s in store Sunday when Britney Spears opens this year’s Video Music Awards.
The 25-year-old tabloid magnet will perform “Gimme More,” the first single from her upcoming album, MTV announced Thursday.
Spears is a VMAs veteran: She covered the Rolling Stones’ “Satisfaction” in 2000, stripping down to a nude-colored bikini top and matching pants; a year later, she performed “I’m A Slave 4 U” with a 7-foot albino python around her neck. In 2003, she and Madonna had the watercooler moment of the year with an open-mouth kiss — in the opening act.
Sunday’s show in Las Vegas will mark Spears’ latest — and biggest — step toward a career comeback after a period of public misbehavior, short-lived marriages, ultra-short hair-don’ts and other misadventures.
Her long-awaited new album is due for release Nov. 13 on Jive Records.
Getting on down to some hip-hop beats in these colourful revealing outfits, Jennifer Lopez signals a return to pop with a hot new video.
Ever since Hollywood’s richest Hispanic singer and actress married her Latino husband Marc Anthony she has shown a willingness to leave the world of urban music behind and embrace her Spanish roots.
She recorded an album in Spanish and planned a tour with her husband, showing off a more glamorous, old Hollywood image.
But her loyal fans will be pleased to hear her new album, to be released in October, signals a return to form. Her sixth studio album, Brave, is in the bag and these pictures show her shooting the video for its first single, Do It Well.
The video was directed by David LaChapelle over two days in August, and sees the star in a series of stunning outfits including this tight black ra-ra number and canary yellow mini-dress.
