The version of the shoe Spears is wearing in the video is made of bright red nappa leather with a blood orange tint. The shoes won't be available until April, but Spears' new video for "If U Seek Amy" is expected to debut in March.

Housewife Look For If U Seek Amy Video
Britney Spears is currently filming her latest music video for "If U Seek Amy," the controversial new song which has come under fire from parents and critics who deem the lyrics too suggestive. But thanks to some new on-set pictures, the pop star looks to be playing more nice than naughty.
From the pictures, Spears is looking less vamp and more like "Desperate Housewives" character Bree Van De Kamp. Spears is seen dressed up as a suburban housewife, with a pink polo and sweater tied around her neck and a hubby matched in blue. She's holding a pie and has two kids in tow, with one, a girl, wearing a "..Baby One More Time" inspired schoolgirl outfit.
The outfit is reminiscent of Britney's 50's-inspired "Joy of Pepsi" promos but knowing Britney, this housewife will get desperate. She'll eventually act out the controversial lyrics, which feature the real-life mom of two singing the explicit play on words "love me/ hate me/ say what you want about me/ but all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek amy."

Still dating Adnan Ghalib?
Adnan Ghalib insists he is still dating Britney Spears.
British paparazzo Adnan reportedly told friends last month he is Britney's boyfriend, despite her obtaining a restraining order against him last week.
According to Heat magazine, a source claims Adnan - who has not been seen with the 'Womanizer' singer in over a year - said: "I still love Britney. I'm her boyfriend.
"Britney has a beautiful soul. We share something really special. The truth about us will come out eventually, but it's not for me to talk about. I love her."
Adnan's relationship with Britney, 27, was quickly curtailed when Britney's father Jamie became her co-conservator - and was placed in control of her money and affairs - in February last year.

Ready to hit the road
Turns out, Britney Spears' upcoming tour is a going to be a kid-friendly one after all.
Particularly for her kids.
A week after the pop star's premature proclamation that sons Sean Preston and Jayden James would be joining her for her North American road trip—and less than a week after Kevin Federline's attorney said otherwise—E! News has confirmed that a deal has, at last, been made for the Federtots to join their mother for Circus time.
Federline and Spears have hashed out a custody deal for their road tripping, which will more or less mirror the terms of their current arrangement.
K-Fed attorney Mark Kaplan tells E! that all necessary parties have signed off on the agreement, which will allow Spears to see Sean and Jayden on "pretty much the same schedule that she has now."
Spears will continue to have overnight rights to her boys three days and nights per week, with the caveat being that rather than having those visits transpire at her Los Angeles home, they will take place in one of three makeshift home bases which will be set up across the country and to which Spears will commute back to in between gigs.
In addition to L.A., Spears will be renting homes in New Jersey and New Orleans for the duration of the tour. Should he so wish, Federline has also received the green light to stay at the homes while Spears has custody in order to minimize travel and the potential uprooting of the boys.
"Kevin is working to make them accessible by going on various central locations in various areas of the country, and he is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful," Kaplan said.

Britney Spears' one time manager Sam Lutfi is planning a tell-all documentary about the troubled singer's 2008 breakdown, according to a report.
Lutfi - who recently filed a defamation lawsuit against the Toxic singer and her father Jamie, alleging their claims that he drugged the star were untrue and had caused him "humiliation" and "distress" - is said to be in negotiations with TV network UPN - which broadcast Spears' 2005 reality series Britney & Kevin: Chaotic - to make the explosive program in a bid to seek revenge on the Spears family.

Pickup guru Neil Strauss dishes on Britney Spears in new book
First Neil Strauss wanted to help average Joes get lucky. Now he wants to help save their lives.
The author of the best-selling pickup-artist book "The Game" is set to release "Emergency," an eye-opening look at how to survive the increasing global risks of terrorism and natural disasters.
Included are tales of learning to kill and butcher a goat, fly planes, deliver babies, evade hunters and obtain a legal second citizenship. And while Britney Spears may never help save anyone's life, the "Circus" singer does make a hefty contribution to the tome.
"When I wrote 'The Game,' I included a story of how I picked up Britney during an interview," Strauss told us of his former days as a journalist for Rolling Stone and The New York Times. "Right after the book came out, Britney called me and asked to meet."
Jaunting to then-pregnant Spears' Malibu home, Strauss was met by the pop star holding a crumpled-up sheet of paper. On it, she'd written "notes from her life, about cheating on Justin Timberlake, about resenting her parents' control and about sexually acting out.
"She wanted me to write her life story," Strauss scribes in "Emergency," out March 1 from HarperCollins. "I knew the book would be incredible."
But when her point people began warring over control, Strauss removed himself from the situation and refocused on his task at hand: living.

Britney Spears, Kevin Federline Finalizing Tour Custody Arrangement
Britney Spears and Kevin Federline are reportedly close to finalizing a custody agreement allowing them both to see their two young sons while Spears embarks on her Circus tour in March and April.
Though Britney's blog had already announced that the boys were going to be on the road with their mother, Kevin Federline's lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan told E! News on Wednesday that an agreement would probably be reached in "the next day." He added that Spears will probably see her sons on "pretty much the same schedule that she has now." Spears' lawyer was not available for comment.
As of now, Federline has primary custody of Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James, 2, but Spears has been seeing them about three days a week, according to Kaplan. The attorney didn't think the boys would be attending Britney's shows, but instead K-Fed would be taking the boys to "various central locations in various areas of the country."
"They will be available in her life when she is done with the rigors of performing," he clarified. "He is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful."

Deal for Britney's Boys on Tour Not Done
Although Britney Spears' blog on her official site yesterday announced that her boys Sean Preston and Jayden James would be joining her on her Circus tour, ex-husband Kevin Federline's lawyer says not so fast.
"We are working toward that," K-Fed attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan tells E! News. "There can be an agreement reached in probably the next day, but there is not an agreement that is signed yet."
The agreement they're moving towards will allow Britney a similar amount of access to the two boys as she has now, around three days per week, with Kevin accompanying his sons to areas like New Jersey, New Orleans and L.A., where Britney can easily travel to from concerts.
"Kevin is working to make them accessible by going on various central locations in various areas of the country, and he is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful," says Kaplan.
"I don't think the kids will be at venues. They will be available in her life when she is done with the rigors of performing," Kaplan explains.

Court blocks effort to depose Spears
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Britney Spears will not have to undergo questioning in a Florida civil case filed by her former manager at least until summer.
Clay Townsend, an attorney who represents Johnny Wright, said the pop singer won't have to be deposed until August, following a closed hearing Monday. Townsend argued that Spears appears competent based on interviews and appearances.
A court commissioner blocked efforts last year to depose Spears in the case, which was filed in Orlando, Fla.
Townsend claims she is the only person who can answer questions about specific periods of her music career. Attorneys for Spears' father, who has control over the singer's personal and financial affairs, declined comment.

Britney, who struggled to regain her form following the birth of her two children and well-documented health problems, paraded her new body in a pair of denim hotpants yesterday as she visited her local Starbucks in Hollywood.
It was a rare public appearance for the 26-year-old, who has spent recent weeks holed up in an LA dance studio preparing for her highly anticipated comeback tour.
Her toned and taut physique is the result of careful calorie counting and vigorous work-outs which she admits have been a struggle.But clearly even Britney realises, it can't all be famine and no feast.
She told the January issue of Glamour magazine: 'I have had to work hard at getting [my body] back to where it used to be.
Britney is gearing up to kick of her 44-date Circus tour, which begins in New Orleans on March 3 and ends in London on June 14.

Indian leg in Britney’s tour
Pop star Britney Spears is set for a Bollywood dance routine in her upcoming world tour, Circus.
The buzz is that Britney will flaunt a B-town-inspired gig during her much-hyped world outing.
And helping the pop diva perfect her dance moves is Indian choreographer Rujuta Vaidya.
“Britney was not used to the Bollywood style of dance but she is a fast learner and she picked it up well. I know she was excited about doing it because she is the one who selected us,” Rujuta told a New York-based website.
It is believed that Britney will flaunt desi dance movements in the track Me against the music, also known as Rishi Rich Desi Kulcha Remix . “In the beginning of the jig, Britney makes an appearance from under the stage in a veil, and she really likes that look,” said Rujuta, adding that elements of African dance and aerial stunts have made it an amazing production.
“It is the only time when all 12 dancers are on the stage simultaneously,” she told the portal. Apparently, Rujuta made it to Britney’s list from among several choreographers who were also keen on creating the dance moves for the pop diva.
