Britney Spears: Live and More! (stylized as britney spears: live and more!) is the second video album by American recording artist Britney Spears. It was released on VHS on November 21, 2000 and later re-issued on DVD alongside Spears' first home video release, Time Out with Britney Spears on February 13, 2001.[2] This video tracks Britney Spears on her much-publicized visit to Hawaii for her Crazy 2K Tour. Spears, polished and sophisticated beyond her years, tours the island with a mix of sightseeing, fan appearances, and live performances. The camera follows her as she practices with her dancers, hangs out with friends, and even attempts to hula dance. The highlight, is the culminating live performance where Britney performs some of her greatest hits like Oops!...I Did It Again, (You Drive Me) Crazy, and ...Baby One More Time. Although the DVD peaked at number four (#4) in the U.S., the DVD has been certified 3x platinum. In France the DVD was certified platinum, meaning that it sold over 20,000 copies, and worldwide sold over 500.000 copies.

Synopsis

Since she first exploded onto the pop music scene in the summer of 1999, Britney Spears has dominated the world. In this collectable, must-have home video, Britney shows just what she can do like nobody else. Who wouldn't want to own the jaw-dropping, eye-popping videos for the hits Oops!... I Did It Again, Lucky, and Stronger? Britney's never shown such dancing talent, unique style and great singing. Speaking of talent, Britney holds her own and then some when she hosts the legendary TV variety show "Saturday Night Live". Who could ever forget Britney as homegirl Down Paslowski on "Morning Latte", meeting "Woodrow The Homeless Man" in the sewer or judging dancer try-outs for her tour?[3]
