Filmmaker, Ben Mark and Andrea were keen to include Brighton landmarks including Brighton Pier, Brighton Beach, the West Pier, and Madeira Terraces. 201 dancers were joined by Streetfunk, and the project was supported by JP Omari and Marina Studio.
CHOREOGRAPHER ANDREA WALKER says 'Everyone who knows me, knows I am a massive Britney Spears fan. Not only I love her music, but her album 'Blackout' helped me overcome some of the toughest times in my adolescence as a young gay teen. She's had a huge influence on my work, and today she continues to be an inspirational figure to many in the LGBT+ community. When it was announced she would headline Pride in our city, I knew I had to assemble every single Brighton dancer I knew and do something special! I've encouraged people to share the video on social media - let's get this all the way to Britney'!
