Check out this shot from the set of Britney Spears‘ hotly anticipated ‘Hold It Against Me’ video. Directed Jonas Akerland, the clip was filmed over two days this weekend and has many -including Spears herself- deeming it her best work yet.

Indeed, writing on Twitter after shooting wrapped, Spears said:

Such an incredible experience. I think this will be one of the best videos I have ever done”

Echoing such sentiments was ‘Toxic’ and ‘Slave for You’ choreographer Brian Friedman, who reunited with the 29 year old for this project. According to Fridman, Spears “danced her behind off”during filming.

Here’s hoping there’s substnciation for all the hype and not merely smoke and mirrors as has been the case with Ms. Spears too often over the last few years (see: ‘Circus era’)

Tidbit: It appears the usually reliable Breathe Heavy were a little over-excited in branding an earlier posted image as being from the set. The shot above however, we can confirm, is the real deal.
