Britney Spears Earned $500K For Product Placements in 'Hold it Against Me' Video

While some fans are shaking their heads over the blatant product placements in Britney Spears' video for 'Hold it Against Me,' the singer isn't sweating her critics. In fact, she's laughing all the way to the bank.
Plenty of Fish has already reported a 20 % increase in traffic to their site since Spears debuted her video last week.!!!

TMZ reports that the pop superstar raked in a cool half a million dollars for prominently featuring a number of brands in the video, including Make Up Forever cosmetics, Sony, dating site Plenty of Fish and her own fragrance, Radiance.Spears has heard from her fair share of detractors in the industry over the video, including Katy Perry, who tweeted about the obvious product placements, "do it w/style & grace...Not so in ur face like some. U hv to get creative w/it. Some artists don't care tho, & u can tell."
