I cannot wait~
It looks awesome.

omg that 3rd teaser screams A BEST XD

The teasers for A BEST were just like that lol


Awesome though!! thanks!

4th teaser

looks amazing!

SHE'S WEARING BULLET UNDIES

*dies*

LOL1

Looks awesome. Can't wait.:D

soooo excited and so hot in 4th teaser

^Looks awesome.:D

lol they're getting longer!!!

damnit. the release date has been pushed back 2 weeks to 29th March

http://cdnwp.britneyspears.com/asset...mb-250x333.jpg

^ THAT SUCKS. I wanna hear all the songs now.

the album is now a day before my birthday omg

lol they should give the fans what they're asking for and release both albums on the same day :P problem fixed

huh? why? Is Lady Gaga releasing another album? Well, all i know is me and my roommates and my gf are all planning on buying Britney's new album.

Btw, Britney's album is now listed on CDJ. It says First Press includes a rolled poster.

^oh ok. neat.

Does America get that First Press poster with Femme Fatale as well?

The album release date has never been confirmed, it's always been just "March", and some online shops just made the mid-March release up as a place-holder I guess. The album is not "pushed back", the release date has simply been specified as March 29th now.

and lol poster? I'm so ordering of CDjapan if the poster won't be included here.

^CDJ just doesn't have a deluxe edition listed yet, so I'm waiting for a little more information before I make my final decision.

I don't really like posters so I'll just probably buy from a record store, it's cheaper too xD

^I have some coupons and points saved up. Quite a lot actually, so I think it'll take like half the cost off if I buy at CDJ. But first I want a deluxe edition listed. I'm also curious to see if the JPN Press will have any bonus tracks.

It most likely will.

6th teaser :)

^cool new teaser.:D

Did you guys spot the secret scene?! Right before you see her, you can see a white flash and if you pause there, you see this:



I am so excited!! How many sets / outfits does this make now?

- The TV Screens set with the big white dress
- The Microphone set with the shiny red outfit
- The flashlight set with the white bullet undies
- The speakers (or maybe flashlight again) set with the black outfit
- Possibly the same set, with.. an iron outfit? And boots. Hard to see from the short flash.

Me neither actually! But it would give greater sales to both singers... like sooo much :thud

I bet all the old britney fans (like me) would like buy the album after years of not following her anymore, etc.


It would be the event of 2011 AND perhaps of the 10's!!! xD




And Teaser 6 is cool :D took me sometime to find the secret scene lol I hope the video is great.... too much tension building up!

Hm not that exciting, but fair enough, they can't spoil too much and 13 teasers is a lot! :)

^same response:) ;)

Someone's gonna get fired because Teaser 8 leaked kinda early on Vevo!

AND IT'S FIERCE! Karateney!

http://www.twitvid.com/LPOM8

^too cool!! :D

8th teaser is FIERCE!

awww that makes me more excited for teaser 8

all these teasers just made me lose the interest lol. Can you just put out the video or not? I mean, Im not the one who will cry out loud for 3 sec of the song or behind the scenes or any stuff like that. Im interested in album as well. Its always interesting to hear what Britney comes out with ^_^ I only liked couple songs on Circus, they were missing something like I really like My baby but her vocals were too weak (usually I adore her voice), I started appreciate Blackout lately more but that album also is so - so for me. She really does hit or miss for me. Gimme more is epic while Radar is unlistenable. Circus is the most awsome thing ever while Pappi something is horrible >_<'' For me her perfect album from start from finish was Oops I did it again. lol, that was so long ago but I still love her (*o*)

^ Aww that's too bad but I personally love the idea, it's awesome to see previews.

9th teaser


I like Britney with straight hair rather than a curly blonde

At first I thought the teasers were getting longer but it's getting shorter and shorter lol.

5 more days!!! Omg..they had better not disappoint..

^ikr? I'm scared I'll be let down after all the hype. Sometimes, I think its better not to hype it up so when people see it they are surprised.

2 more days.. ahh cant wait

I'm so excited!

what time does it air??..in term of singapore time?

It's going to premiere 9:55 pm EST that's 10:55 am Singapore time.

today's the premiere right?? :D

30 second sneak peak.

I really cant wait to see the new PV. I want it!

Those teasers were a great idea... now I really can't wait!!!!

OMG anyone posted this before? *-*

http://ak.britney.com/images/image.jpg

^I want.

So, I read on Perez Hilton that Nicki Minaj only wants to work with Britney now. Other than Brit, she doesn't want to make any other collaborations.

^ for 2 years, but ya right... collabs helped make her famous.

GUESS WHAT'S COMING IN HALF AN HOUR

It'll be 4AM where I live.. The things I do for Britney, I've got lecture early in the morning haha.

^LOL! It's 9:22pm here. I'm already tired. I might just let it go and watch it online later.

Ooh come on, I've stayed up all night for this and for you it's not even a big deal to stay up 'till 10 :laugh Don't be a drag, just be a stan!

^what does those terms "stan" or "neitzen" even mean? I keep seeing them everywhere recently.

^ I'll admit I loled a bit :D

^Sorry, but i never grew up hearing or seeing those words. To me "Stan" is just a guy's name. I have so much trouble keeping up with all the slang, expressions and everything else out these days.

Anyways, it's just a Britney music video. I also see all the kpop and jpop PVs after the original air time as we don't have channels for those here.

Stan means a person who blindly loves EVERYTHING by an artist. Think of a SUPER AYU FAN who thinks she's goddess and invented oxygen or something.

I do admire Ayu, but not that much.:P

And thanks. Anyways, if i watch Britney's new MV I'll watch it on my computer. My roommates will just talk through it if I turn on the TV. They don't know how to be quiet during a show or movie.

Watching it right now!!!

It was okay-ish, need to see it again one for time! I didn't see the whole thing.

I wasn't seriously impressed. Stopped shortly before the end.

IT'S HERE AND IT'S GLORIOUS

THE HOLY SPEARIT - HOLD IT AGAINST ME

It was tight and I loved the dubstep bridge part when her old videos were up. But seriously, what the **** happened with the dancing. Way to edit it all out. Good video but should not have hyped up the choreo so much.

OK, I am quite disappointed with the PV. lol

I absolutely agree, her dancing was a bit of a letdown, BUT COME ON THE PAINTSCENE AND THE FIGHTSCENE!!

Paintney and Fightney own the thrown.

The white dress and the paint reminded me of Real me PV.
But yeah...barely any dancing. Ughhh

They said there's going to be tons of dancing >.>
A bit disappointed lol.

OMG am I the only one LOVING this??!?

.. I'm a stan, aren't I?

Hey ya'll I'm Britney Spears I'm in a massive spooky white dress floating in the air surrounded by screens that- WAIT I'LL JUST LOG INTO PLENTYOFFISH.COM NOW THANK YOU FOR WATCHING

oh well, I am Britney stan as well. this is 1 of the best video she ever made but the choreo kinda ****

Hmm, I think it was an okay video. I've never been too fond of the song 'Hold it Against Me' but, imo this video was a lot better than the last one she put out. I must say that I really liked the fight scene, as well as the one with all the paint. But all of the product placement was beyond annoying, and really took away from the video, imo. I also kind of wish there was a little more dancing, and also that she would ditch the high heels and bust out some dance moves like she used to!!

But on another positive note, Britney looked absolutely stunning throughout the entire video!! :thud

It was really noughties-ish, not that that's a bad thing, but just surprising. Song is still really passable for me.

I'm not impressed. Maybe just a little bit.

I love how she looks in the closeups, just gorgeous! The video gets better from when she starts fighting with herself lol

The product placement is lame and way too OBVIOUS. "OMFG I'M gonna buy Sony just because of Britney!!!:love" NOT...

I love how they used her old videoclips, that was cool.

And what else... oh yeah, the storyline was cheap (If there was any in the first place).



The song is good, but the video doesn't make it any better in my opinion :( How disappointing... I was expecting so much, and all because of the stupid countdown videos... ugh.

I think this is the best video in her career, the best video in usa music industry.
Im so proud. I love the messages in it, whole concept... everything.
Britney owned everyone like always

I liked the video. :)

I think... it IS a pity they edited the much of the dance out for the other things, but it's not like they were insignificant, so I'm glad.

Now, we need a dance version of the MV :laugh

I dont understand people caring about dance that much :S
It's about storyline not dance >_<''

^ but she's hot when she dances :laugh

I personally like the original MV too but I think a dance ver will be nice to watch too~

I know she's happy when she dances but I never potrayed her as a dancer. I couldnt care less about dance. Its britney. Enough said. She can just stand there for me :)

^ looks like we're on the same track ;)

I found it pretty boring.. and I knew that was it was overhyped like BTW :P
But yeah.. what was with the question mark at the end? Maybe a continuation?
and wasn't Britney supposed to do something she never did before..?

^ she has never punched herself, or gotten paint sprayed all over an ass-long white dress that she has never worn before too

I dont think she ever had such a deep message in her video.
Everytime and Piece of me are kinda on that track

HAha can someone explain the MV coz....I LOVED IT!!,
Colorful, modern, edgy...and the dress was so damn amazing. I dunno what some of you guys were expecting from it haha..the dance?? Ok yes, I believe the dance would be very cool but I guess I could do with this too because its nothing I've ever seen before. Perhaps I have low expectations because I didn't know what to expect even..

I think the question mark simply finished the intro logo's that say "Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me" "?". So it kind of makes a sentence "will you hold this video agasint me?"

It was overhyped, yes. I would've been even more impressed if she had just dropped this without the countdown, but I genuinely think she delivered with the fighting scene!

I was entertained through the whole thing, she looked great and the paint/fight scenes were awesome. I couldn't ask for more.

The product placement, I'm used to it by now. It's expected.

I watched the video right now and then came here... I'm really surprised about the comments... XD I absolutely love this video! I think it's very creative and as mentioned above the paint/fight scenes were awesome!

so we only get the "digital version" of the album's songs?? where's the album's CD other than the vinyl and the HIAM one?? ==a

Umm you should really read things properly.

It says that you'll get the deluxe edition of the album on the release date and no you won't get instant downloads of all the songs you'll only get Hold It Against me and you can only get the premium fan edition from Britney.com

I'm lost. What "deep message" is there behind this video? It was nice, but I don't see any deep message in it. And what story line? she sang in front of tvs, sang while dancing, and fought herself, is there a storyline to that? I personally didn't like it til the paint part started. That through the end was good. And plentyoffish.com? are you serious? lady gaga did it in her telephone video. Kesha did it in her we r who we r video and now britney? My god it makes me want to not go on plenty of fish, actually.

I didn't like the different sizes of tvs in the one scene. They were supposed to be showing all her past music videos but the only one I could actually see was baby one more time. I with the others were bigger.

Also, I think the ? at the end of the video is just summarizing the entire song. "Would you hold it against me" and now that you've seen the video, at the end they finally put the ? so it's like a "Now that you witnessed it all, would you hold it against britney?"

It was a good video (though I did get Ayumi vibes, Real me! Not that Britney would copy Ayumi, it's just an interesting observation xD ) and I think there is a message if you read more into it.

The product placement gets to me though, it's worse than Avril Lavigne's What the Hell video.

Are people still not used to product placement? Bad Romance and Telephone just as bad.

After reading the comment on youtube :

What's meaning behind the video

*Start of her career - She hit the earth like a meteor

*Becoming a celebrity - She’s all glammed up putting make-up & perfume

*Rising popularity - She’s rising as her old music videos surround her

*She fell in love -The picture of the guy on the Sony touchscreen TV

*Personal struggle - She was fighting with herself

*Breakdown/Meltdown - She collapses and ruins her wedding dress & past work

*Comeback - She comes back harder than ever as the Legendary Britney Spears

I came to appreciate the video better ^^
If not I would just treat it as a over commercialised MV >.< (avril's WTH is the same.... =/)

Stan comes from the MV of eminem's Stan =)
watch the mv and you should probably know why ^^
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOMhN-hfMtY

i thought Ayu fans will got the message lol

"Basically, the plot of the video is her facing her past and then moving on and embracing it. You see her rise in a white dress (symbolic of her virginal beginnings) and she's surronded by videos that critics consider her peak. A photoshop smile is on her face during that scene, showing how she had to be happy even when she wasn't. When she begins to crack, the faceless dancers are thrashing around underneath her dress and eventually break out, representing her inner demons. She then tries to destroy her pure image and all that her legacy is with the paint and she's left alone and lost (the reasoning to her in the fetal position on the ground). She then tackles her real problems had on, facing herself in what is a literal fight with herself. Soon, she learns to embrace and overcome her problems, emerging a new Britney. Notice the black dancing outfit in contract to the white one. The black represents a bruised Britney who has her battle woulds, but she'll keep on dancing and doing what she loves, better than ever."

Thanks. maybe i'll watch it muted later. I hate eminiem, so maybe thats why i didn't pick up on it.

hmm it seems that the plentyoffish.com is a real online dating website >.<
and the guy featured in the mv is seeking a man o.O" any idea what is the message? or just another random commercial in mv thing...

^^^
^^^^
I really like those two interpretations!^^


And by the way, did you guys see this cover? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxTDK1S5qJ0
I really like it, sounds very interesting as a ballad...
