Britney SpearsAfter a series of sneak peeks and teasers on her Web site and Twitter, Britney Spears officially debuted the music video for her hit single “3″ on Friday (October 30). The sexy, fast-paced clip for the song, which will be included on The Singles Collection when it’s released next month, made its big debut on her site.

According to mtvnews.com, the video, shot by director Diane Martel earlier this month, is a series of glamour shots and dance breaks. The video opens with Britney in a sparkly little black dress, spritzing herself with perfume and putting on mascara. Then it cuts to a shot of her holding her hair up provocatively and singing the song’s sexy opening lines: “1,2,3/ Not only you and me/ Got 180 degrees/ And I’m caught in between.”

The video promotes the sexy side of Britney that she unleashes here and there. Shots of the pop star in black and white, wearing a halter-cut leotard in a steamy room, are cut with images of just her legs in lacy tights walking across the screen.

Dancing is also heavily focused on in the video, especially the close-up shots where you can not fully see Britney’s body. In some sequences she is flanked my male dancers or standing in a lineup of sexy women who do acrobatics on a raised ballerina bar as she flounces around.

Late Thursday, before the video premiered, Britney tweeted, “Can’t wait for y’all to see my new video tomorrow morning. I think you’re really going to like it!”
