Who needs one "Till the World Ends" video when you can have two? Well, it seems that Britney Spears' fans will get just that.
JustJared.com reports that the singer will release two videos for her second single from Femme Fatale. According to the site, "The director's cut will have more of an apocalyptic story line while the choreography cut will have the unabridged version of Britney's dance moves."
The video was directed by Ray Kay and shot in Los Angeles last month. The video features Spears in sexy, body-hugging clothes getting sweaty with her dancers. "The set was a little much. It was grimy and gross and it felt like there was poop everywhere when there wasn't," she recalled in Sunday's MTV special "Britney Spears: I Am the Femme Fatale." "It was sweat and it was disgusting sometimes ... [I] tough it out," she laughed.
In the video sneak peek featured in the special, Spears opted to change out of her sexy heels to dance in more practical Uggs. "It hurts ... but it looks good," she explained. "It wasn't a full-length shot, so a girl's about comfort when it's not showing." She later added, "It was a lot of fun. I had never worked with Ray Kay before. I was really happy with the work we did."
Spears' "Till The World Ends" songwriter, Ke$ha, opened up to People.com about how she'd like to hang out with the pop star now that they've worked on a hit pop song together.
"Skinny dipping. It would be a dress-up-like-Ke$ha-or-Britney party. Either her place or my place, it doesn't matter," the "Blow" singer said, describing their perfect hang-out. "I have a small, salt-water pool [at my house in Nashville] that has laser beams in it and a stereo so you can be underwater listening to music."

At the start of Lil Wayne's I Am Still Music Tour alongside Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross and Travis Barker, Drake was a curious omission from the star-studded lineup. However, last night in President Obama's backyard, the Canadian heartthrob joined his boss onstage to quell any talk that he is no longer part of the Young Money machine.
Fans at the Verizon Center in downtown Washington, D.C., were treated to crowd-pleasing performances from Lil Wayne and protégé Drake, who along with Minaj, kept the Young Money Records imprint afloat while Weezy served time in New York's Rikers Island on gun charges. The Young Money honcho acknowledged that very fact while introducing the Thank Me Later star.
"I know y'all know a few months ago I was locked up and sh--, but it was people like Drake and people like y'all that made me feel like I wasn't even there, so I appreciate that sh--, I really do. I just wanted you to miss me while I was gone," a humbled Lil Wayne said before launching into the blistering track "Miss Me" with Drake.
Drake took time to speak to fans at the sold-out venue about the rumors that he and Young Money parted ways. "You see today, when I landed in D.C. and I got off the plane, this n---a looked me in my eyes and he asked me, 'Did you drop out of Young Money?' And I looked him right back in his eyes and I said, 'Boy, are you out your mother----ing mind?!' Man, I want this sh-- forever," he said, launching right into his single "Forever."
Drake told MTV News in February that while he isn't a listed headliner on the tour, he would make some guest appearances on the 24-city journey when time permitted as he is busy recording his sophomore album, Take Care.
