Britney Spears is preparing for the release of the video for her new Album named Blackout. Two weeks back she was reported to be spending time in a dance studio in North Hollywood. Britney is trying to make video for the single “Hot as Ice”. She has already done the initial work for that and is getting ready to do the animation of the same. Britney is trying to get the help of Andre Fuentes, who is a dancer and choreographer, for doing the dance steps for the video. Like all other Britney Spears videos, this video is also a well thought about act and she has started rehearsing for the movements in the video.
Britney has confidence in Fuentes as they have already worked together in many of her music videos like, “Oops I did it again” and “Slave 4U”. Britney Spears who is on a comeback path to the entertainment industry is very focused on her rehearsal. Britney wanted to make the MTV Video Music Award as her comeback platform but, she failed hopelessly as she was going through some personal problems. Now, she has to work hard to improve her physique, dancing and singing, in an effort to catch the lost position in the music world.
