It’s a little … late, to be covering Britney Spears’s 2007 single “Gimme More.” The first single off her album Blackout, the pop star performed it at the 2007 MTV VMAs, to disastrous results. But then Kevin Aviance teamed with Jonny McGovern and Adam Joseph to create this little butch-femme rendition. It’s jittery at time, almost as if the director wanted viewers to experience this song through Ms. Spears’s own eyes.

I don’t know if I would call it a “cover.” This is more of an interpretation of the song.

Aviance has been performing the song for a couple of years, since McGovern came up with the idea on his podcast.

I know! I love the podcast, and Gimme More (Aviance) was a stroke of genius.
Jonathan
And this is why I will stick with Towleroad blog vs. Queerty.

total rot. this is why drag as a form of entertainment and especially an art form is dead.

Kevin rocks, but it isn’t new and the vid is really disappointing. Even without a budget they could have showcased this guy who is an AMAZING performer.
Alexander
@Geoff
Agreed. The video was literally no-budget, I thin Jonny McGovern literally put it together in his iMovie. Would love to see it live, though!

Turn it out Kevin. S/he brings it to you every time. Nice to see Queer people being productive and responding to popular culture in such a creative way.

i thought the song still sounded like a vapid spears song. kevin can only do so much to help that crackhead woman out.

Kevin is great. I love the gender blending.

I have been hearing for years what a great show Kevin Aviance gives no matter where she is appearing. I will be in your next audience.
There was not much on budget but sweetie, that is where you come in. And come in you do. You are just awsome!! You go Ms. Kevin.
As for Britney 28 seconds into the video I cut it short. It was just too painful to remember that poor girl that way and the trouble she was going through. Why bring it up?
Thank you Queerty. I enjoyed that one. It actually put a spark in my step.

If you’re going to cover Britney do it justice. This shiz was wachkkkk.

This video SCREAMS of Crystal Meth abuse!! Kevin, Johnny, and Joseph should really lay off the pipe for a few minutes.
Taylor Siluwé
Some of you guys seem to know an awful lot about Meth, how one performs on it, handles a camera on it, edits a video on it. Do tell, inquiring minds and all that …..
Alexander
@Jonathan
Guess what just got posted to Towleroad?

I think Kevin enjoyed some vodka shoots before anything else he took after that…
I m not a Britney’s fan but boy! This is terrible!!!!
That’s something you do with some mate when u drunk but I wouldn’t even put it on youtube!!!!
Kevin, if you can hear me, get a day job!
