In the video for Womanizer, the hugely successful single from the album Circus (2008), Britney Spears appears totally naked in the opening scene, set in a sauna, where she covers her body only with her hands. Directed by Joseph Kahn, the clip alternates between seductive identities and transformations: secretary, waitress, driver, the pop star plays with the male protagonist and the viewer, amid sexual provocations, disguises, and dancing.
Some scenes—including one in which she is naked in the shower with model Brandon Stoughton—were censored on TV. The uncut version, rich in explicit sensuality, premiered on MTV.
