Summary The pop star sparks controversy for using a fake gun when shooting her crime-themed music video.

Britney Spears has come under fire yet again. This time around, the blonde popstar incurred the wrath of Londons Hackney Council for shooting Criminal music video in the Hackney borough which was destroyed during the anti-government riot over the summer.We did not agree that a replica gun could be used at Stoke Newington Town Hall and we are disappointed, the politicians in the area voiced their anger to London Tonight. We will be raising this matter with the production company.Talking about what Britney should do to fix the error, the council noted, I think she should apologize and make a sizeable donation to a Hackney charity that deals with young people... for the rudeness and damage shes done to this community.They further pointed out why its unacceptable for a public figure like her to promote gun violence. They reasoned, It is only a music video but its images like this, with popstars glamorizing gangs, which means that some young people... get drawn in. Britney should really know better.
