Anthony Jones – Celebrity News Service Reporter

Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN Entertainment) – Britney Spears is getting ready to premiere the music video for her new single “Till the World Ends” and it looks like fans are going to be treated to twice the fun.

JustJared.com reveals that the shoot, which was previewed in the MTV special “I Am the Femme Fatale,” went so well, there’s going to be two different cuts of the clip.

One video will feature more of an apocalyptic storyline (“Till the World Ends”…get it?), while the other will feature Britney’s dancing uncut. Um, can we get one of these for “Hold It Against Me” and the rest of videography, too?

The clip is being directed by Ray Kay, while the top 10 Billboard hit was co-written by Ke$ha and produced by Dr. Luke, Max Martin, and Billboard (a different one).

Meanwhile, Spears is getting ready to re-announce summer tour details after Enrique Iglesias dropped out as co-headliner/opening act.
