I need this video to premiere! I like the song but I already find myself skipping it. Hoping the video will make me love it.

If the rumors are true and the video has been scrapped, so help me God I will be there to testify to end this conservatorship.

There have been reputable sources saying the video has been scrapped ????? Video was allegedly "too sexual" but this rumor has been circulating for the past two weeks. I'm legitimately irritated if that's the case because this isn't the first time her team rejected something for being too racy. She's 34, let her live? That said I don't think there's any hard evidence to suggest that it has actually been scrapped. If it does then I hope it's leaked because I'm not here for another 'Gimme More' situation.

I don't know when her team deemed her a gospel artist because Britney has been selling some sort of sexual suggestiveness for decades and doing it well and classy. Why is it a problem now, in 2016 to say the least. If this is true then it will only kill of this song before its fully gets going and I would call for someone to fire her entire team for being dimwits who don't promote well. Britney needs visionaries and risk takers supporting her not some stuffy, bland old suits who cant see the forest from the trees.

I mean people do direct their own videos. What a mess I believe it wasn't Do What U Want so I don't get it

Is Britney that private when she's working on a video or something that no one from her label saw anything from it until it was finished? How sexual could it have been? Something stinks about this....

Don't know how true it is that they scrapped the video but if the did maybe daddy spears had something to do with it.
I didn't think her team could screw up with this release because it's a great song, But maybe they were a bit too over confident.

I dont understand how a song get played but lose AIs... its not like all people will immediately change the channel it the song comes out on radio... It's the stations that are playing it (listenership and market size) and the time of day that influence AI - basically they estimate number of people listening for each spin. This song is getting a lot of smaller market spins, hence the lower AI than say "Too Good", for example, with a similar spin count. The larger market stations that were in on the iHeart exclusive may have brought their spins way down - possibly even to zero (not saying this happened, just that it's possible), which obviously loses a lot of AI, while other smaller markets keep the spin counts rising but don't have enough listenership to counteract the loss of AI. This doesn't mean it's over yet, it just needs to sustain a more organic growth pattern after its bloated debut.

I haven't found anything reputable surrounding the scrapped video claim. After the Perfume incident I have a hard time believing they would let that happen again, especially with a portion of the video already out there anyway. I think some Stan just started a rumor because they're pissed it hasn't been released yet.
If there is any truth to it and we never get that red body paint cage scene... I will REVOLT.

If it's really scrapped they better be coming up with a replacement and fast. Fans have been dying to see it and I don't think pissing off the loyal fans at this point in her career is a good idea.

Solo version is what I needed. Her fanbase is so dramatic. "Work Bitch''s video came out 16 days after it premiered, "Hold It Against Me" was 37... Calm the eff down.

Something isn't adding up... I hope this is just false. She was slithering around nude in the Womanizer video (and was a mom/post-breakdown), the sexy outfit at the BBMAs, grinding on the guitar during I Love Rock 'n' Roll, singing Touch Of My Hand on live television while insinuating giving a handjob... but all of a sudden now it's just "too sexy"? Especially after they sent out previews of the video to people? I don't get it.. but then again, weirded things have happened in Britneyland. I just hope this is another rumor.

"Too Sexual"?! B!tch that's how you get views and break records! Make a PG edit for the soccer moms and give me the filth. I want to see that doggy-style hair flip in HD.

And it's certainly not helping things that she no longer has a banner of any kind on iTunes.

Unless everyone in the video was naked, I don't see how you can be "too sexual" in 2016.

Tbh I don't think they'd seriously scrap it when people have the damn video already. It'll still leak anyway. I don't think it was

The rumor said that she had already re-shot the video, so either way something is gonna come soon...
Anyway, I don't see how it's that big of a deal either way. Maybe they just decided they wanted to make the video better? That doesn't necessarily mean scrapping the entire thing.
I just hope it comes out before the song starts dropping at radio...

I'm not saying it's necessarily the case, but if the label smells a flop due to, say, decreasing sales (and they would be hyper sensitive to that at this point), they may attempt to abort the single, abandon the video, etc, shift focus and literally pretend this didn't happen. They may even take the track off the album, in such a case, if it's going to increase chances of a better selling album. Just a theory. It's a bit self-fulfilling though. If a single is starting to show sign of weakness and low sales, stopping all promotion dead on its tracks pretty much guarantees it will not do well. I think the label might be in super paranoia mode right now and isn't sure which way to go on this.

This track is honestly doing as well as it possibly could for a Britney track in 2016 with no promo. A higher quality song wouldn't hit harder.

It's still doing fine on radio -- likely at another +100 day and its bullet will go way back up tomorrow.
As for the video, have not seen any *reputable* sources saying it was scrapped.
Britney just did a Q&A this week on Tumblr and said the video was about female empowerment. So...
