Details on Britney Spears' VMA act with Criss Angel

No one is going to accuse Britney Spears of being subtle.

The new dance track meant to resurrect the pop tart's stale career is out, and it begins with a defiant declaration: "It's Britney, b---h."

Featuring Brit's breathy vocals and a club-friendly beat, "Gimme More" made its official debut last night on radio station Z100's Web site and was also leaked to other sites.

The paparazzi magnet plans to appear Sept. 9 on the MTV Video Music Awards, where "Mindfreak" magician Criss Angel will use his best illusions to try to conjure up a comeback for her.

Angel will guide Spears in and out of a series of mirrors, making it seem as though she vanishes and then reappears several times, a source told the Daily News yesterday.

Other dancers in the complicated number are being called upon to harness up for simulated flight, the source said.

And even if the abracadabra act tanks, Spears will still be stinkin' rich.

Her average monthly income is a whopping $737,868, according to court documents filed by ex-hubby Kevin Federline, who's seeking custody of their young sons Sean Preston, 23 months, and Jayden James, 11 months.

K-Fed himself is receiving spousal support of $20,000 per month, according to the documents obtained by TMZ.com. Unfortunately for him, checks for Brit's baby daddy dry up Nov. 15.

"[Spears] is clearly the 'monied party' in this case," Federline attorney Mark Kaplan said in the heavily redacted filing.

The power lawyer, who's been handing out subpoenas left and right to Spears' associates, went on to request that the singer pony up $50,000 for her ex's legal expenses.

Child welfare authorities are investigating allegations that under Spears' watch, her tots have poor dental hygiene, a questionable diet and erratic sleeping schedules.

I guess it's too much to hope that the vanishing part of the act works, but not the reappearing.

why does she have to fork out money that her ex is spending? i dont think she should have to pay that no matter how much money she has i think that goes to any and everyone. if you hire a lawyer that is your own business. just think of what he would spend the childsupport on.

IS...THERE..a slight chance Criss will make Britney disappear?

Will she still be lip synching even when she vanishes?

The Superficial put it best:

You know what would be a really shocking performance? If MTV showed a video of Britney Spears staying at home, tending to her children and basically acting like a human being with normal maternal instincts. Nobody gets dropped or used for an ashtray. Child services doesn’t stop by. And most importantly, no one sees up Britney’s skirt.
