Britney Spears video shows nip slips and a revealing outfit as she dances to Billie Eilish

britney spears posted two short clips on Instagram that show her dancing energetically to Billie Eilish's "Bad Guy" while wearing a skimpy outfit and suffering multiple wardrobe malfunctions. The posts come as she has recently sold rights to her catalog and made public statements about future performances and her approach to music.

Outfit, makeup and movement in the clips

In the clips the performer wears a tiny black halterneck bra under a low-cut red crop top, paired with a black miniskirt and black boots. She also appears with fingerless black gloves and stacked blue bead bracelets on both wrists, swings long blonde extensions back and forth and has brown eyes lined at the corners with heavy black makeup. At the start of one clip she sports a brown cowboy hat and a khaki trench coat, then removes them to reveal her stomach while cutting an array of dance moves and keeping her gaze fixed on the camera.

Multiple wardrobe malfunctions and emoji coverage

The 43-year-old suffers several nip slips and repeatedly uses her hands to try to readjust garments, with those attempts failing in multiple parts of the two videos that are nearly indistinguishable. In one of the clips she covers one breast — which spilled out of her bra — with a red heart emoji to conceal it, and she also used a heart emoji elsewhere in the posts to hide her modesty.

Instagram posts, followers and the clip caption

The singer shared the two new videos with her account of 42. 3 million followers. In the caption she wrote a playful challenge—"TRICKED YA" followed by laughing emojis—and added a longer message that said, in effect, that people thought she was gone, that she wants to be pretty in a dress and that she knows the value of a heart more than anything. She has said in other recent posts that she dances on Instagram to heal things in her body and that those videos can be embarrassing at times.

Britney Spears catalog sale, deal terms and sign-off

Recent material in the record shows she sold the rights to her back catalogue; one estimate placed the deal at about £150 million while other commentary called the transaction a "landmark deal" and compared it to a reported $200 million catalog sale by another artist. Reports note she gave up a stake in a deal with a music publishing company for an ownership share in classic tracks including "Baby One More Time" and "Gimme More, " though the exact overall price is unclear in the provided context. Records indicate she signed off on the agreement on December 30, and an insider said she is happy with the decision and is celebrating by spending time with her kids.

Performance plans, prior vows and family details

Last month she declared she would "never perform in the U. S. again, " saying she would not return to U. S. performances for "extremely sensitive reasons" while expressing a hope to one day perform on a stool with a red rose in her hair alongside her son in the UK and Australia. Two years earlier she vowed to "never return to the music industry, " adding at that time that most news about her was "trash, " that she had written over 20 songs for other people in two years and that she works as a ghostwriter and enjoys it. She shares sons Sean, 18, and Jayden, 17, with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, 47.

Context note: other supplied material

The supplied context also included a brief item titled "Verifying Device, " which is part of the material provided with the clips and coverage.
