Britney Spears Debuts “Gimme Your Best” On Good Morning America
Britney Spears stopped by GMA this morning to perform her lead single “Gimme Your Best”. Before the performance, Britney revealed the cover live and sat down for an interview.
When Britney revealed the cover a loud “awww” was heard from the audience
Britney said that she's always loved the picture and really wanted to use it as the single cover so she just did. She let fans know that the cover doesn't really have any correlation to the song, it's just really cute!
Britney then sat down for an interview:
-Hi how are you Britney?
Brit: I'm good, thank you! I'm so excited to perform Gimme Your Best for the first time, I think my fans are gonna love the song.
-You'll be hosting and performing on Saturday Night Live this week, correct?
Brit: Yes, I'm really excited. It's gonna be cool for sure we have a lot of stuff planned so I'm very excited for that.
-What is the sound of your upcoming album?
Brit: Straight up pop and electro-pop. There's a few urban songs as well and one mid-tempo which is called Where'd The Good Times Go? It's a touching song I wrote last year while I was going through my rough times, it's not about me or my life but it's definitely a sad and touching song, one of my personal favorites on the album.
-You announced last week that you'd be teaming up with Pepsi and Fifa for a World Cup/Pepsi commercial, when can we expect to see it?
Brit: You can expect to see it during the Netherlands vs Mexico game today, and it will be playing during every remaining world cup game at least twice. It's pepsi's commercial for this world cup so it's pretty big!
-You've completely taken over MTV recently, will this continue in the coming weeks?
Brit: For sure, MTV is only gonna get more exclusives as we get closer and closer to the documentary release and there'll definitely be more promotion for the documentary through MTV so yeah I'll definitely still be "taking over" *giggles*.
-Will we be getting a video for Gimme Your Best? It seems like we won't be getting one for Deranged.
Brit: Yes there will be a music video for Gimme Your Best, it's actually really shocking haha but I think thats what the fans want!
Your album comes out July 13th, do you have a title yet?
Brit: I have a title but I can't reveal it yet, there's gonna be a big reveal for the cover and title.
Who has the honor of being on your record this time around?
Brit: I had the honor of having Rihanna on a track, I can't confirm any other collab just yet.
-What is your favorite thing to do when you're not promoting around the world
Brit: Uhm I love being with my boys, playing sports I actually played tennis with Serena Williams last week it was amazing! I like dancing for fun, watching movies.. I don't know I'm kinda a lame person *giggles*.
After the 15 minute interview, Britney took to the stage.
The performance started with Britney in a green dress, holding a microphone and moving her body to the beat of Deranged.
Britney sang a slower version of Deranged for about 2 and a half minutes, moving her body sensually while guys in suits followed her around.
After about two to three minutes of Deranged had passed, smoke began to surround Britney and the room went pitch black. An electronic-dance beat began to play..
Thirty seconds later, the lights turned back on and Britney appeared in a much sexier outfit as the up-beat electronic dance instrumental was playing.
The men in suits continued their chase after Britney as she sang the lyrics to "Gimme Your Best".
She started to touch the men in suits and push/kick several of them down to the ground. It seems like they weren't good enough for Miss Spears. One of the men began grinding on Britney, at first she enjoyed it but when he went in for a kiss to soon.. she pushed his face away and twirled away from him.
In the backdrop, various woman were pushing their men away because they didn't seem to "give it their best". Britney went center stage with all her ladies in a circle formation and shouted "If you want this, you gotta gimme your best". The ladies went into a technical dance break, they all did a split and slid and crawled on the ground. They got up and were all grinding on one another pushing any of the guys that came towards them away.
Water began to poor on all the girls as they got on their knees and moved sensually to the beat, shaking their bodies and hair in the rain while touching each other.
Finally a new group of better looking men came up to the girls and Britney, they each went to a woman and danced with them. Britney and her man gazed into each other's eyes, it looked as if it were love at first sight. He reached in for a kiss but Britney turned and walked away resulting in him following her down the stage. She spoke into the mic "Gimme Your Best tonight…. And just maybe… you’ll get me". Britney then turned back to the man as he spun her around, lowered her back, and then pulled her in for a close kiss. The performance ended as smoke surrounded the two of them center stage.
The crowd went wild after the performance and Britney let everyone know that
"Gimme Your Best is out on iTunes now!"
