Overprotected

Original Version

To release the original international version of the song, Spears reunited with director Billy Woodruff (" Born to Make You Happy "). The video was shot in the second half of November 2001 in Los Angeles, and released on December 6, 2001, coinciding with the international release of the single.

The “Overprotected” clip begins with Britney driving away from annoying reporters with an excerpt from the instrumental version of the song “Bombastic Love”, which is presented on the Britney album, playing. She goes to an alley and decides to enter an abandoned factory, hoping that her pursuers will go astray. When she enters the building, she begins to dance in the warehouse. Britney's dancers see her walking around the factory, follow her inside. They find Spears dancing and laugh at it before they begin to dance intensely. Towards the end of the video, we see fragments where Spears is in a room with walls covered with photographs and articles about her. These walls move and move apart until the video ends, indicating that it is "super-safe."

In the video, Spears wears clothes from the Argentinean Kosiuko campaign. She decided to use these very clothes in the video, because she thought it was stylish. The creators gave clothes to the singer to advertise their product in the US market since they recently opened fashion houses in Miami and other cities in America.

Darkchild Remix Clip

For the release of the song Darkchild Remix in the United States, the video was shot by director Chris Applebaum. The filming process took place in Los Angeles from March 2 to 4, 2002. The clip was released on March 26 of the same year. The video begins during the day that Spears and her friends hang out in the hotel room. Negative reporting on Britney appears on television news, and her and her friends express their disagreement with the report. Then Britney calls her bodyguard, and uses a rag to disguise her voice, begs him to leave the post so that her group can slip out of the hotel and enjoy the day. They ran to the elevator and, in short, trick the security camera before they went to the main lobby. Subsequently, a walk through the lobby and a short episode with dancing. After that, a group of Britney runs out of the hotel and get on the SUV, and continue driving along the street. The interior of the SUV turns into a limousine dance hall, and Spears and her friends dance inside. Next, an episode of the choreographic dance from the lobby with fading strobes is shown. After the SUV, the group leaves the van and runs into the alley. Late night, and heavy rain begins, Spears dances under it. At the end of the video, we find that about Spears and her friends dancing in the rain there was a negative report at the beginning of the video. The atmosphere in the lobby is the same as in the clip of Janet Jackson's “ Son of a Gun (I Betcha Think This Song Is About You) ”. Both clips were shot at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles .
