So after posting last night, I proceeded to watch a few of Britney Spears' music videos out of curiosity.
It explained a lot of things in the Brittany/Britney Glee episode that I missed/didn't get. I think Glee did a good job of playing tribute to her music/music videos (actually I think they might have done better than the originals in this case).
So, let's take a look at a few:
So we get that this is where the red leather jumpsuit comes in. Also it's kind of different from some of the other Britney Spears music videos - giving off a "cute" vibe rather than trying to be sexy. I have no idea what's going on in this video. Man lands on Mars and weird Mars Girl chains him up and sings and then they have a confusing dialogue at the end. Ok. It may be one of the strangest things I have ever seen. It's kind of great. I'm really into the groovin' scientists. On a side note, I was kind of disappointed that Glee didn't perform that song - I feel like it's kind of a Britney Spears' staple.
Seeing the Glee version of this song, I initially thought it was one of the worst they selected and was dissappointed in Lea Michelle's (Rachel's) performance of this song. I mean, what was going on with the big forlorn puppy eyes and thirteen-year-old attitude? And then I saw the video. Oh. That's what. I now think that Glee did a pretty good job on that song, and that this music video is just... special. I think the pink fuzzy things in Britney's hair are hilarious. I hope kids actually wore those and thought they were cool. Also in both this version of the song and the Glee version some of the back up dancers have intense abs. Seriously, look. It's insane.
I like when Britney overacts, but mostly I was not into this video at all.
The Glee version of this song was probably my favorite of the episode. I like Britney's dancing in this one, but Madonna was kind of "meh".
That's all! And if you've actually made it to the end of this post, congrats.
