Even then, Britney was continually making changes, especially when it came to wardrobe. Ultimately, Jive scrapped the projected $800 000 Khan video and opted to go with Britney's much more simple vision which featured her as a bored schoolgirl dancing with her friends, which was made for around $250 000. If you want me to reach four-year-olds, then OK, but if you want me to reach my age group.'" Jive initially hired Joseph Khan - who would later go on to work with Britney on music videos for 'Stronger', 'Toxic', 'Womanizer' and 'Perfume - to direct, and he got to the storyboard stage with a sci-fi inspired concept involving 2D animation, monsters and Britney as part of a hero group alternately described as "Power Rangers" or "Transformers". "They had this really bizarre video idea, this animated Power Ranger-y thing," Britney explained in her first ever Rolling Stone cover story.
'.Baby One More Time' is the song that propelled Britney into stardom, and it's music video is an undeniable part of it's appeal - but if it hadn't been for Britney herself, the video could have turned out very differently. In this article we'll look over everything we know about these videos so far, and explore some of the iconic moments that could have been if they'd been released. From music videos that were entirely filmed and edited before being scrapped (such as 'Make Me.') to others which were edited heavily after their themes proved to be problematic (hello, teen pregnancy in 'Born To Make You Happy') to mere concepts that never even saw a day of filming (like 'Hot As Ice'), Britney has had at least twenty four music videos in her career that have been scrapped. But what went unmentioned was the multitude of music videos that Britney has planned throughout her career that have been cancelled for one reason or another. When Britney Spears received the MTV Video Vanguard Award in 2011, she was praised for her iconic music videos like the schoolgirl-themed '.Baby One More Time', the intergalactic 'Oops, I Did It Again.', the sweaty and sexy 'I'm A Slave 4 U' and the film noirish 'Toxic'.
