Britney Spears Releases A Music Video For ‘Radar’
Polo position

In May we saw photos of Britney Spears on the SoCal set of her new music video for her latest single Radar. That video, now complete, has managed to make its way to the Internets. Here are a few screencaps from Brit Brit‘s new video:


I have to say … I kinda don’t like it. The song was never a fave of mine but it tends to grow on me the more I hear it. I was hoping a slammin’ music video would renew my interest in the song … but unfortch, this video looks more like a bad telenovela (complete with swarthy Latin love interest) rather than a hip music video. After the jump, check out the video for yourselves — you may like it more than I do …


I’m all for videos that tell a story but this one … just ain’t doing it for me. I guess the tryst with the sexy polo player is supposed to be intriguing but … yeah, nada. Deffo not my fave Britney Spears video. What do y’all think?

    Two Words: Horse Shower?

    Bestiality imagery much? like, eww!

    I agree with some comments about this should totally have been in a club.

    I think on a previous board someone said something about legal issues with this song – that she was supposed to make a single with it from Blackout but due to her mental state she never could. So if it’s true that it was a legal obligation, I understand her putting minimal money/effort into this video. It was actually my favorite song on Blackout, but I was definitely envisioning more of a Toxic vibe to it than country club party, lol.

    Definitely a weird veideo for the song. I like the video….and I like the song….but together?? Weird.

    The latin love interest is delish…

    It seems like the HORSE are what’s on her radar, with all those lingering shots of the horse being hosed down, the horse’s tail being braided, the horse’s hooves… WTF?!

  7. Jenny says:

    @Julilly I completely agree! It looks more like she’s lusting after the horse than the rider!!

  8. Erica says:

    OMG SNOOZEFEST!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! This is quite possibly more lame than a Heidi Montag-Pratt whatever she’s called video.

    I agree trent sooo not what i was looking for. I like it, but its not for radar. Its like the director was listening to Unusual You the whole time he planned it out and then when he showed up to shoot it someone told him it was radar but there was no time to think of something else so they just ran with it. lol

    totally! this would be a good video for that song. not radar. not diggin the vid too much.

  10. Erica says:

    Did anyone else notice how much she looks like herself in the “I’m a Slave For You” days in this video? I’m so happy she back even if people think this isn’t her greatest video, it’s better then where she was a couple of years ago. =] You go Brit.

  11. wendell says:

    YIKES! It’s like they’re TRYING to kill the song already!! Not the two years of listening to it didn’t do that already. Out of all the great songs on CIRCUS, why dredge this up?

  12. Jake says:

    Meh. It happened. Shes done worse. “Do something”, “if you seek amy” etc…. give it a break. Shes goin for the whole..classy, all american look in her videos now. Let her experiment. Its been 10 years of BRITNEY. Do you really not want her doing ANYTHING but dancing in some club with lights?

    Not her best, but def. not a bad video. Could be renamed to “horse porno” but, whatever. :) Britney 4 lyfe betch!

  13. Paranel says:

    She looks great. But I don’t like the video. Sorry Britney. “If you seek Amy ” was a lot more ” Britney ” than this one. Still good.

  14. chicka says:

    boringgg !! like everyone said, video does not go with this song! they should have a club setting instead of this!! booo britney !

  15. Chase says:

    I am so annoyed! I am one of the biggest Brit fans out there but she’s being extremely lazy. In all honesty the music video sucks. No need to state the obvious. I just feel like she’s throwing away everything she’s ever worked hard for. Yes, I know she’s been through a lot in the past year and so but I just find it annoying. I really do. ‘Gimme More’ and ‘Piece of Me’ were better than this crap! I could film a better video if I wanted to… It may be more adult but it isn’t even trying. Sure, Britney didn’t direct it but she could’ve at least tried. I’m really starting to lose my faith in her and it isn’t because of this music video but it does add to the list.

  16. Annie says:

    What is with all this bellyaching?? So it’s not the greatest video, big whoop! I cant believe people think she’s being lazy or that no thought went into the video. A video without any thought or where she was being lazy would be yet ANOTHER nekkid, club-scene, gyrating on some random dude plotline. I give Britney major props for doing something different.

    Is the horse scenes a bit much? Yes, lol. But it’s still a good video, she looks amazing and I like the storyline of choosing the guy she’s passionate about, rather than the rich guy who buys her affection. Plus, that first bit when she casually strutting from the car to the front door is one of the sexiest intros I’ve seen in a Britney video, hell in ANY video, in a while!! :) :)

    Giddy Up! The video had a story of a woman not happy with her spoiling woman. He should have known material things don’t please a woman as much as true passion love can. That’s why Britney went with the other guy because of the stronger non-material passion they have. And Perez, “Radar” was released instead of “Kill The Lights” and “Unusual You” because Britney’s record label Jive, had a contract with the producers of “Radar” to release it as a single. If it was never released as a single, Britney’s record label Jive would be sued for Breach Of Contract. And this song is more fitting for the summer than “Kill The Lights” and” Unusual You” There actually “might” be a re-release of the hit album “Circus” with a few new songs. I’m glad her label won’t b sued anymore for “breach of contract” by releasing “Radar” this song will do well I think because it’s very established for the last 2 years. It’s even in video games, like “boogie Star” on wii” I love performing that song on there. and I remember how roudy the crowd got when she sang this song. The story line is very LeAnne rimes about lovin’ another man behind your significant other’s back. I like how she didn’t go for the obvious pop dance routine, show girl theme. It’s well done and puts more versatile art in her career – instea of the rdundant dance routien another dance routine videos alot of other artists do.

    i mean … it’s not terrible. haha i actually kinda like it – and i think it goes pretty well with the song and everything. but, i don’t know if this is just my computer but the words and what she was lyp syncing were kinda off … i think the video was a little off there.

  19. jenny says:

    woow, if u get the meaning its kinda sexual with the horse, and the tying,
    but over all i was expecting something like toxic or futuristic, this video just didnt fill my expectations
    love her
    love the song
    love the outfits
    love the scenes
    just not the video.
