Britney Spears Made A Name For Herself With ‘… Baby One More Time’ Video

In anticipation of the premiere of Britney’s ‘Hold It Against Me’ video, we look back at her iconic 1998 clip. By Jocelyn Vena Britney Spears in “Baby One More Time” Photo: Jive Records It’s hard to believe that in 1998 a schoolgirl uniform caused so much trouble, but that’s just what happened when a pouty Britney Spears donned the now infamous costume in her video for “… Baby One More Time.” Well, it seems Britney had some idea that the costume idea would make the video memorable. “My idea originally was just jeans and T-shirts, and we were at the wardrobe fitting and Britney holds up the jeans and T-shirts and says, ‘Wouldn’t I wear a schoolgirl outfit?’ ” the video’s director, Nigel Dick, told MTV News in 2009 . “Every piece of wardrobe in the video came from Kmart, and I was told at the time not one piece of clothing in the video cost more than $17. On that level, it’s real. That probably, in retrospect, is a part of its charm.” In 2000, Spears spoke to MTV News about baring her belly in the clip, noting that it felt like the most natural thing in the world to do. “Me showing my belly? I’m from the South: You’re stupid if you don’t wear a sports bra [when you] go to dance class, you’re going to be sweating your butt off,” she explained. “It was such a wonderful experience. All these people there, working for you. I had my own trailer. It was an amazing experience.” Spears was then an unknown pop singer and Dick had already established himself as a music video guru. The decision to work with Spears left many perplexed. “My response was, ‘It’s a great song. I don’t know anything about Britney. I never watched ‘The Mickey Mouse Club.’ She seems like a great kid and she’s very enthusiastic,’ ” he said. “But I just love the song. It’s just a great song. “I decided to try this idea that someone had thrown at me and they hated it — they absolutely hated it,” Dick said about the video’s simple setup. “So I jumped on the phone with Britney and she says, ‘Well, now I think it should be about me in school and there should be lots of hot boys around,’ and that was pretty much it — oh, and a bunch of dancing. And my response was, ‘OK.’ ” In a 1998 interview with MTV, Spears revealed that she wanted the video to reflect the lives of her fans, so she wanted to set it in a school. “The first idea we had for the video was so off the wall,” she said. “I was like, ‘I want something a lot of kids can relate to.’ It’s just a fun video.” That same year she noted that as soon as she heard the song, she knew she had to record it. “It’s a song every girl can relate to,” she said. The song was recently featured in the “Britney/Brittany” episode of the hit show “Glee,” with Lea Michele playing the Britney schoolgirl role. Before Britney Spears debuts her music video for “Hold It Against Me” on February 17 on MTV, MTV News is taking a look back at some of the singer’s most memorable videos. The new much-anticipated clip will air on MTV and MTV.com Thursday at 9:56 p.m./ET, right before a new episode of “Jersey Shore.” Related Photos The Evolution Of: Britney Spears

Kobe Bryant, Brooklyn Decker, Candice Accola Look Back On ‘When I Was 17’

Stars remember fast-food runs and telling off teachers in latest episode. By Mawuse Ziegbe Kobe Bryant on “When I Was 17” Photo: MTV Kobe Bryant was obviously working on his now legendary hoop game when he was 17, but even with NBA superstardom ahead of him, he also made time to score fast food. The Los Angeles Lakers baller reminisced about ditching class to score tasty eats on the latest episode of “When I Was 17,” which premiered on Saturday. In the episode, which also featured stories from supermodel Brooklyn Decker and “The Vampire Diaries” star Candice Accola, explained how he and his friends would play hooky and snag a burger or some Mexican food. “I had taken the bulk of my classes my first three years. So my senior year was a pretty easy year. Every day was senior cut day,” Kobe said. “We used to just talk in between breaks or in between periods. [We’d just say] ‘You hungry?’ ‘Yeah, I’m hungry. Let’s roll, let’s go.’ ” The NBA star added, “I was starving. I mean, c’mon, I was a buck-20. I needed to eat something. Cafeteria pizza ain’t gonna cut it. It’s just, like, prison food. We used to go to McDonald’s, Taco Bell.” Supermodel Brooklyn Decker tended to stay in class, but she didn’t always behave herself. The Sports Illustrated siren copped to getting into a tiff with a teacher over a proposed yearbook layout. “My friend Ashley and I were in this class. I was the senior class president and Ashley was student body president, and the yearbook teacher did not want to give student council a page in the yearbook,” she said, explaining, “We funded all these clubs and we support all these clubs through spirit week and so we thought we deserve a page in the yearbook.” Their teacher suggested the go-getters in student council give up some yearbook space to a club that featured people who wouldn’t get any shine in the school-pride tome otherwise. Apparently not one for compromise, Decker lost it. “We started yelling things at one another and by the end of the class Ashley took a trash can and just chucked it at a wall. And I walked out of the class, and I went like this [makes a provocative gesture] and I yelled, ‘Suck it!’ to my teacher,” she said. “The Vampire Diaries” starlet Candice Accola also made a statement when she was 17, although it was with her hair and not her hollering, dying her tresses red to stand out. “It was very overwhelming at the beginning,” the former Miley Cyrus backup singer said of heading to Hollywood to jump-start her music career. “You feel like such a little guppy in this giant ocean. And I just never felt like anyone ever remembered me. I’d meet people constantly and try to make an impression.” Accola decided she could ignite some attention by turning ginger. “I thought I’d be edgy and dye my hair red,” she said. “And I dyed my hair, like, Jessica Rabbit red. It kind of allowed me to have this whole new confidence and this whole new swagger and this whole new sense of self. It kind of brought out the inner rock star in me. I had never dyed my hair like that, and no one forgot me after that.” “When I Was 17” airs Saturdays at 11 a.m. on MTV Related Videos When I Was 17 (Season 2) | Ep. 8 | Kobe Bryant, Brooklyn Decker, Candice Accola Related Photos When I Was 17 (Season 2) | Ep. 8 | Kobe Bryant, Brooklyn Decker, Candice Accola

Justin Bieber Vintage Video: ‘I Love Twitter’

‘My fans have made me a trending topic every day,’ Bieber marvels to MTV News in April 2010. By Jocelyn Vena Justin Bieber in 2009 Photo: Michael Loccisano/ Getty Images In April 2010, Justin Bieber sat down with MTV News to dish about his devoted fanbase. His Beliebers, at the time, were keeping him at the top of the Twitter trends daily. Those fans were the ones who believed in him before he became the megastar he is today. When he sat down with us all those months ago, Bieber seemed grateful for their love and support. “They make me a trending topic on Twitter every day,” Bieber marveled. “It’s pretty incredible. My fans have made me a trending topic every day. I don’t think there’s been a day in the past month that I haven’t. So it’s pretty incredible.” The singer — who is still one of the most devout celeb users of the social-networking site — said he loved using the site to stay connected to his fans. “I love Twitter,” Bieber said. “I use it for being able to interact with my fans as well as promote stuff.” To this day, Bieber frequently tweets and retweets messages for his fans, noting that there’s no science as to who he picks. “It just depends. It’s kind of, like, it’s random,” he said. “It’s not really anyone specifically. It’s just kind of a random thing. “They’re like, ‘I never thought you were gonna respond!’ ” he added. “And I say, ‘You thought wrong.’ ” On Friday, Justin Bieber’s 3-D documentary, “Never Say Never,” opens. The film takes a look at how the teen star worked to hit it big. MTV News has been chatting with him along the way, from the time he first burst on the scene in 2009 until now, as he embarks on a huge 2011 that will include a tour and more new music.

Brooklyn Decker Recalls Telling Off A Teacher On ‘When I Was 17’

Supermodel remembers heated argument over yearbook in latest episode. By Mawuse Ziegbe Brooklyn Decker on “When I Was 17” Photo: MTV Brooklyn Decker is a catwalk-strutting supermodel who can induce whiplash with her swimsuit-clad curves, but in high school the siren had more of a passion for politics than fashion. On the latest episode of “When I Was 17” — which premieres Saturday at 11 a.m. ET on MTV — Decker recalls getting into a heated argument with her teacher over a yearbook layout that would have left her beloved student council out of the tome. “My friend Ashley and I were in this class. I was the senior class president and Ashley was student body president, and the yearbook teacher did not want to give student council a page in the yearbook,” she says, explaining, “We funded all these clubs and we support all these clubs through spirit week and so we thought we deserve a page in the yearbook.” However, their teacher, Ms. Smith, explains that since the student council was full of go-getting teens active in several clubs that would’ve gotten some shine elsewhere in the annual volume, perhaps preserving space for those other organizations would help spread the yearbook love. “We had one page left in the book,” the teacher recalls. “We were trying to decide what group would get that one last page, and I said, ‘Listen guys, the same people who are in student council are in lots of other things and so I think we should give the page to this less visible group in the school.’ ” But Decker wasn’t having it. Her friend Ashley says, “Brooke just like, lost it,” a reaction the model doesn’t deny. “We started yelling things at one another and by the end of the class Ashley took a trash can and just chucked it at a wall. And I walked out of the class and I went like this [makes a provocative gesture] and I yelled, ‘Suck it!’ to my teacher,” she says. Decker jokingly chalks up the outburst to an overload of heart-racing energy drinks. “I don’t know what came over me, I was crazy in high school,” she says. “I was like, all hopped up on Red Bull or something, I don’t know.” “When I Was 17” — this week featuring Kobe Bryant, Brooklyn Decker and Candice Accola — premieres Saturday at 11 a.m. ET on MTV.

Will Eminem Or Justin Bieber Rule The Grammys? Oddsmakers Weigh In

Ladbrokes and Bodog both like Em and Bieber’s chances on Sunday night. By James Montgomery Eminem Photo: Getty Images The 53rd annual Grammy Awards air Sunday from the Staples Center in Los Angeles, and while most will be tuning in to see if Eminem can capitalize on his industry-leading 10 nominations or catch Lady Gaga performing “Born This Way” for the first time, we’ll be watching to see how all our bets panned out. See, we love gambling nearly as much as we love the Grammys (and that’s a lot ), and, with the big show just a few days away, we figured it was time to place our bets in the Big Four categories: Album, Record and Song of the Year, plus Best New Artist. And to help insure our wagering success, we’ve once again gone to two of the best oddsmakers in the universe — Ladbrokes and Bodog — to get their take on music’s biggest night. And, strangely, their picks sort of mirrored our own opinions : They both see a big night for Eminem. But unlike us , they also see Justin Bieber hoisting the hardware. And, really, who are we to disagree? After all, they’re professionals. So here, for your last-minute wagering, are Ladbrokes’ and Bodog’s odds for the 2011 Grammy Awards. Ladbrokes “The odds reflect the sensational musical year we’ve had, which makes our jobs considerably harder. When it comes to arriving at our conclusions, personal tastes do come into play, but our main job is predicting public sentiment and where we think the money will go,” Ladbrokes’ Alex Donohue said. “Some of the categories look like they have nailed-on winners — namely Eminem and Jay Z and Alicia Keys — whereas others are much closer. The quality of the short list means we can’t rule anyone out, and we’d expect one or two surprises along the way.” Album of the Year
