Britney Spears' "Anticipating" brings a cardboard convertible to Las Vegas

Britney Spears - Anticipating (Live From Las Vegas)
Next story: Britney Spears' "Overprotected" returns to the Las Vegas stage
"Hey y'all, do you want to go out tonight?" Britney Spears asks in the filmed sketch that opens "Britney Spears - Anticipating (Live From Las Vegas)." Cartoon houses and a pink convertible set up the outing. Then the concert stage becomes the neighborhood, complete with a car made for choreography rather than the highway.
The archival performance has reached about 70,000 views in 11 hours on BritneySpearsVEVO, comfortably beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for regular uploads. The comment section is already more than four times as busy as a typical first day.
"Anticipating," from her 2001 album Britney, supplies a lighter, disco-flavored corner of that era. Its staging follows suit: drawn house sets, dancers emerging through stage traps and a cardboard pink car that eventually carries Spears and a dancer around the stage rim. Near the finish, she turns to the arena audience and asks them to sing with her, using the words on the screens.
Viewers are discussing the Dream Within a Dream Tour's sets, costumes and use of props. Others have a practical wish list: digital releases of singles and EPs from the Britney era, plus more concert material from the archive.
The upload sits alongside newly posted official audio for album tracks including "Cinderella" and "That's Where You Take Me." Here, though, the attraction isn't just hearing an album favorite again. It's seeing how Spears turned it into a miniature night out, right down to the ride home.
