After teasing the music video for days on her Twitter and Instagram, Britney Spears has finally released the music video for her second Britney Jean single "Perfume." The power-ballad, which is a shining light on the otherwise mediocre eighth studio album, got a fitting video tribute, full of crappy motels, crappy boyfriends and a beautiful Britney.
The storyline for the music video is simple enough: Spears and her sexy video boyfriend have a glorious time together. They snuggle in bed, exchange plenty of hugs and dive into a motel pool.
Unfortunately, as Spears learns in the clip, she isn't the only woman this longhaired hunk is snuggling with. See, he's also hugging a brunette, swimming in a pool with her and even cooking in her kitchen. As the lyrics to "Perfume" suggest, Spears is getting two-timed. And while she's not happy about it, she's not particularly angry either. No, in the "Perfume" music video, Spears is just plain old sad.
Thus, she puts on her Fantasy perfume and stalks around moodily while giving sultry eyes to the camera. Seriously, Spears is looking as good as ever these days, and she's using every opportunity to show it off in her music videos.
If the "Perfume" music video is a bit anti-climatic, that's because it is. Originally, Spears was going to get a little more murderous in the music video. However, after shots of Spears holding a gun went viral (and thus caused tons of controversy), that plot was scrapped from the official video.
Regardless, "Perfume" is a solid work from Spears.
