Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Britney Spears “Break the Ice” Video

Break the Ice

Ah.

So I’ve finally arrived in San Diego, had a lovely dinner of Chinese food with my super-genius kid sister, and then she settled down in her bedroom to study the kind of thing that super-genius PhD students study, and I set up my laptop in the living room to catch up on a day’s worth of gossip. My super-genius little sister dedicates absolutely zero percent of her time to following celebrity gossip, because she’s busy saving the environment and stuff.

I discover that the new Britney Spears video has been released, and I watch it. My sister wanders out of her room. “What is that noise?” I tell her I’m watching the new Britney Spears video, and she peers over my shoulder, curiously, to see what could possibly be so interesting. “Is that supposed to be her?” she asks. “Because it doesn’t look a thing like her.” She pauses, thinks, and then from her super-genius mouth: “You know, I think she thinks she’s a lot prettier than she actually is.”

Ah, from the mouths of babes…

Here’s Britney.

Here’s the video.

It kinda sucks.

But you knew that.

  • oh my god. it totally sucks. this woman should not be let loose making videos anymore..and i thought she was on the right track with some half-decent songs like peice of me… oh well, i guess she’s had a relapse. we know she’ll always come back anyway with some crazy idea or other, so i guess we’ll just have to wait and see..

  • Wow, this totally brought back memories of when I was in middle school and watched Sailor Moon! I kinda sorta like the song (not her spoken one-liners, though), but the video is just… bizarre. But what else do I expect from Britney? Hey – at least she wasn’t dancing around mostly-naked for three minutes. That’s refreshing.

  • the song is so so, i guess i may have to hear it a few more times, i didnt really like gimmie gimmie more but now i think its totally hott! anyway, i think the anime is cute, i don’t understand what she is saying in the song either, i think that if she is gonna have anime it would work better with a fast song. but i think overall it’s a good little video.

  • The song’s not bad, but what is up with the anime? Don’t like this whole cartoon concept at all!! I want old Brit Brit back!!

  • the drawing barely resembles her….in face obviously, this might be the only way she could look hot again….

    it looks like low budget anime…really low budget

    she is completely done….has to get out of this stuff right now and take care of herself

  • The song is perfect fit her emotions! What she want to express reflect the cartoons actions and the drawings with the low budget which is not really a low budget as some might feel it is. Try to see beyond that.
    Our old brit is somewhere out there… I think Brit is back…

    As they say nothing is gone when you can still try reaching it…

    Keep it up Brit…

  • Very Noir. Even the backwards jump and clothing, what the fuck man.

    Not even one bit Brit. Kinda thankful, actually.
