came up with the storyline for "Toxic", directed by
Joseph Kahn.[6] Spears plays three different incarnations
of herself and poisons her unfaithful lover. Throughout
the video, there are scenes of Spears naked covered in
diamonds.[6] The music video for "Everytime", directed
by famed photographer David LaChapelle, was notably
darker than Spears’ previous videos.[7] The video por-
trays Spears as a star hounded by paparazzi, who drowns
in her bathtub when she starts bleeding from a wound
in her head. In the hospital, doctors fail to resuscitate
her while a child is born in the next room, implying
she has been reincarnated. The original treatment would
have had Spears killing herself from a drug overdose, but
the plot was removed after it received criticism by sev-
eral organizations, who perceived it as a glamorization
of suicide. Featuring many religious references, the mu-
sic video was noted by contemporary critics for predict-
