In this video, Britney plays a dorky waitress who works at what is apparently the hottest club in town. Her and her girlfriends meet up with spot some hot guys and decide that their work clothes have to go–out with the nerd and in with the diva. Quickly, they all rush to a dressing room and glamify themselves up. Britney changes into black spandex pants with a metallic green belly tank shirt. The ex-waitresses meet up with the hot guys and out they go onto the dance floor, where everything instantly starts to pick up. Britney and her dancers launch into a dance scene, which includes a girls against guys competition. Then, Britney appears in front of a gigantic “CRAZY” sign and sings her heart out with a 1950’s style microphone. Suddenly, “STOP!” Britney shouts and all action around her stops, until the DJ revs up the record with Britney’s face on it.

This is one of Britney’s most expensive videos made.

Safety concerns were big here, because of all the set ups and light bulbs. Crew and staff had to wear hard hats, which of course couldn’t be seen off the camera.
