A lot of Celebs have come out and slammed Britney Spears for her new music video 'Hold It Against Me'.
Britney reportedly made half a million dollars from blatant product placement in her new vid, which features some plugging of products like Sony, Radiance perfume, Make Up Forever cosmetics and Plentyoffish.com.
Soon after the much-anticipated video aired on Thursday night, singer Marina and the Diamonds began a conversation about product placement with pop star Katy Perry. Marina tweeted:
"What is consensus on product placement in videos? As a fan, do you prefer product placement if it means bigger budget vid?"The 'Firewok' singer replied to the Welsh singer-songwriter that plugging should be done with:
"w/style & grace...Not so in ur face like some. U hv to get creative w/it...Some artists don't care tho, & u can tell. "Of course all tabloids today wrote the Twitter quotes stating that Katy was clearly attacking Britney, but today she took to Twitter to tell the tabloids what she thinks of them:
Wow Katy that's a bit harsh, in fairness you did say that some artists didn't seem to care, very soon after Britney's video came out."Dear tabloid media aka FILTH: pls note I expressed an overall feeling bout product placement, their roles in vids & the art of them being complimenting or sticking out. Most, if not ALL popsters welcome deals w/products 2 offset costs of big budget vids in these recessional music industry times. I'VE used them in MY vids before & am happy 2b able 2 make a better vid because of. Once AGAIN, stop pitting artists against artist for ur sensational satisfaction &stick to what ur best @: lying, gossiping, exaggerating &overall lending a hand 2 the deterioration of a generation."
We still love you!
