How much did they pay? Or did they pay anything? It makes me sick to think that, not only do I have to deal with the little boy's in the low ride Honda's flashing their lights and giving me the thumbs up. I now have to deal with the teenage girls saying "thats the car from the new Britney video" arrrggghhhhhhhhhh!! X-men, Britney, Ludacris. Whats next?

 

I saw the video, and the car looked awesome in it. I've worked with a few bands on their music videos and it's always the artist's or producer's choice. So Brittany, or one of her producer's own, or like the RX8. Madonna was in the video too, so you can't really know who wanted that particular car. Just be thankful it wasn't riced out. And hey, at least you can say that your car wasn't in the Fast and the Furious.

 

This is most likely a repost but here is a link to the video.
Maybe we can get her to appear at the next 7stock:D

Which video was it? I wanna download.

 

I think the album is called "Me against the music" or something like that, or that could be the song, but it's the first video off of that album.

 

As a developer I'm qualified to be very pissed off when other developers release web applications without testing them using the latest browsers. That movie access system doesn't work with IE-6 OR Netscape 7. Pathetic!

Can anyone grab the video and post it please?

 

so i watched the beginning and saw the 8...my door doesn't sound anything like that when it shuts =p

 

Works fine with both IE6 and Netscape 7... you have to have windows media player installed though.

Anyways, the video is posted here:

Hmmm. Well it's not working fine with MY IE-6 and N7. Netscape is detected as a pre-4.7 version and IE fails to get past the connection check application. I can see the sample video but clicking on the 'See Video' button only restarts it. Odd.
Thanks for the link.

Don't forget Ludacris.

 

damn
I watched the whole thing and the 8 is only in the beginging for like 5 seconds

 

I thought the same thing
but thats just hollywood right?

 

that blows... if i get the 8, I don't wanna hear, "hey that's britney's car!!!" geezus people! she prolly didn't know **** about the car til she saw x2 or something...

same thing happened when I got my 1st cell phone... I got the old skool Nokia 8290 then I kept hearing, "hey you got the Charlie's Angel's phone!" ... . uh yeah... ok... never even noticed what the phones looked like in that movie... you swear I was looking at the phones...

 

lol so glad i got an "original" so to speak

She signs the hood in the "making the video" show. so you see more of the car. oh joy.

 

my door just swings back and shuts on my head as i get out.

 

'Hey Britney: lose control...'

Excuse me while I vomit.

 

i wonder if any other artist will use the rx-8 in their music video. But that X-men movie does come out soon, so you could get the movie and watch that scene with the 8 in it over and over and over

 

My girlfriend told me about the 8 in the Britney video- thanks for the link - at least it satisfied my curiousity. It defintely looked like a product placement for the 8- look how well (and evenly) lit it was on the side angle- and the close up on the nose/mazda logo. Nothing else in the video was lit to be featured that prominently. The Ludacris video on the other hand just showed the 2 doors of the 8 open- nothing else so it was most likely the director's choice (or maybe the artists) I know the director (and producer is my GF's cousin so I can find out for sure how that worked) - and I can't wait to see him again to ask about the 8 and mention I got one (of course he can afford any vehicle he wants...)

The ludacris video was great- extremely funny and perhaps the best use of special FX (digital) I have seen in a long while used for any real storytelling at least it was funny!!- I loved the peeing baby shot and the 20 foot afro) Waay- off topic- but I just finsihed shooting my very first music video tonight for a friends band- all greenscreen- and they are getting pretty hot right now in the media- so if it runs on MTV or VH1 (which it probably will) I'll post back- or at least give a link.

Yeah, it annoys me how a "non-admired" star can take a good car, and then put shame on it...

 

Get the car

that car is on sale? it would be pointless to buy that car, cause you would never drive it cause of the "pricelss" signature of brittney.
