Get the Look: Britney Spears' 'Criminal' Video

Britney Spears is all kinds of naughty in her new "Criminal" video. The steamy new vid spotlights two sides of the pop princess: sweet naive flower, and S&M diva that robs convenient stores and steams up showers on her spare time. The two very different looks take form in this saucy film as a delicate lace number and a bondage leather outfit. Check out my picks on how to go from a high-society maiden to a badass biker chick whose best friend is her leather jacket. Which side of Britney will you be channeling?

Backstreet Boys' Kevin Richardson Is Back -- All Right!

Kevin Richardson announced that he will be appearing with the rest of Backstreet Boys at a special concert, and hinted at a more extensive return to the group.

"TRL" fans, rejoice: the Backstreet Boys' Howie Dorough will join Britney Spears for a pop star reunion on her "Femme Fatale" tour next month.

 

The singer, who will open for Brit on her upcoming South American dates, will release his solo debut, "Back to Me," on Nov. 15.

 

"I'm so excited that I'm going [to be] joining @britneyspears on several dates of the Femme Fatale tour! Can't wait to see all my lovelies in Argentina, Chile, Peru, Colombia, and Venezuela!! VIP info will be coming next week," Dorough tweeted.

 

While the two may have risen to fame competing on the defunct MTV video countdown show, their careers continue to flourish a decade later: Spears' "Criminal" video has notched over a million views since its debut last week, while Dorough and the rest of the Boys will continue their tour with New Kids on the Block as NKOTBSB in Europe next spring.

 

Dorough's dates with Britney will go from Nov. 20-28, wrapping up before a Backstreet Boys performance in the Bahamas on Dec. will that mark the return of fifth member Kevin Richardson.

 

"I would love to perform with them again on a more regular basis," Richardson, who left the group in 2006, told Ryan Seacrest recently. "Our chemistry when we come together just feels like old times."
