At 30 minutes, Britney: The Videos is even shorter than Britney's outfits! It has only four videos and is padded with one live performance, two commercials, and a featurette about her first starring role, in the movie Crossroads. Her fans won't mind, of course. The videos for "Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know," "I'm a Slave 4 U," and "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman" show the star is a born performer, while "Overprotected" features Crossroads outtakes as Spears lip-synchs in character from that movie. Also included is the eye-opening performance of "Slave" from the 2001 MTV Video Awards (complete with live snake), her "Joy of Pepsi" commercial, a teaser for Spears's HBO special from Las Vegas, and a glimpse at a Vogue magazine photo shoot to the strains of the song "Anticipating." Spears's cover of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" is heard during DVD chapter breaks. --Kevin Filipski

From the Back Cover
She's been touted as the biggest star in the world, and with her track record, it's easy to understand why. With a slew of chart-busting hits, countless sold-out concert tours, trend-setting performances, endless magazine cover stories, and over 40,000,000 albums sold worldwide, the name "Britney" has become a household name. As a recording artist and now a songwriter, producer, and movie actress, Britney Spears is flexing the muscles of her talent and showing the world just how unstoppable she is. On her third album, Britney, the simplicity of the title belies the breadth and depth of each song, as the music deftly flows from pop to R&B, to lush balladry to funk and techno. The video illustrations of the hits "I'm a Slave 4 U" and "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman" prove that Britney's signature style continues to cause a sensation and surprise at every turn.

With Britney: The Videos, you can own these incredible works of video art, as well as Britney's unforgettable performance on the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards, the groundbreaking video for "Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know" from her multi-platinum album Oops!... I Did It Again, and for the ultimate Britney collector, we've included her much talked-about Pepsi commercial and the TV commercial for Britney's HBO special Britney Spears Live from Las Vegas. You'll also catch a glimpse of Britney at her photo shoot for the cover of Vogue magazine. And, as a special treat, we'll take you behind the scenes on the set of Britney's first major motion picture, Crossroads. There's even an exclusive music video for the song "Overprotected," which includes outtakes from the movie along with a one-time performance by Britney. With Britney: The Videos, you'll get to know this superstar on a first-name basis. 30 minutes.

Customer Reviews

Extremely Misleading
When an artist releases a video entitled, "The Videos", one would expect it to be a collection of videos. Instead, "Britney: The Videos" is a collection of three videos - "Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know", "I'm A Slave 4 U", and "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman." There are no other videos, unless you count "Overprotected" - outtakes of the movie set to the song. The DVD also includes a Pepsi commercial, an HBO commercial, and a performance from the 2001 VMAs. If you wanted a collection of Britney videos, ala "Dave Matthews Band: The Videos 1994-2001", you're out of luck (as I was). To get copies of the other videos you'll have to buy Britney's other two DVDs, but you still won't get the videos for "From the Bottom of My Broken Heart" and "Born To Make You Happy", which I was really looking forward to having. If you simply want to buy anything with Britney's name on it, I say knock yourself out. However, if you're looking for the actual DVD that the name implies, I'd recommend waiting. In the meantime, her HBO special is coming out on DVD in January and would be a much better buy if you don't feel like buying a bunch of DVDs.

Could have been better
"Britney: The Videos" is good, but there was so much that could have been added to make it better. They included the VMA 2001 performance which was just amazing, but I really think they should have added the famous 2000 VMA performance as well. There are only four videos here. Two from the new album "Britney" (by the way, the "Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" video included on here is different than the one seen on MTV) and Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know from her second album Oops!...I Did It Again. The behind the scenes is nothing really special. The one with the photo shoot is Britney just dancing to "Anticipating." Of course any fan will be happy to own this, but it was rushed and there should have been more interviews, etc. If you're a Britney fan, get it, but if you're expecting a lot from this DVD, don't get it.
