At least blonde-Britney got to sit down the whole time.

Poor poor production and really bad lighting effects.

However, she at least looks hot...enough. Anything's an improvement. She looked good. But then again, I never really got a good still solid view of her. The cuts and jumps were almost epileptic.

Avril's video sucks on its own, but is better produced.

Maybe the point of Britney's "Gimmie More" video is to depict strippers and strip clubs in a more realistic light.

Otherwise, why would she keep smirking and giggling every time she looks toward the pole?

It's like piling on a suicide.

The woman is clearly intoxicated in the video, which is an upsetting thing to notice considering that they had multiple choices of shots. They should have just shown stock footage of weiners being made. That would have been less disturbing.

Uhm, so she's going to get help soon, isn't she? Please?

I hate that I actually like this song. Can't we watch the team of recording engineers who actually synthesized it writhe around instead? I don't care if it would look like a Furries vs. Klingons reinactment of Showgirls, it would at least hold one's interest for more that two minutes.

That is the attention to detail lavished on this production.

"Gimmie" is perfectly taylored for MTV - it basically gives repeated shots of the same image, therefore it's solid enough for a 30-second clip on TRL.
