That's right folks, half-nude photos of Britney Spears -- ones we probably all knew existed-- have finally surfaced online.

The photos – outtakes from her 2007 video “Gimme More” — show the pop princess writhing around a stripper pole with her breasts covered only by fake rose tattoos.

Taken during the height of her infamous breakdown, the photos have been kept under wraps for nearly two years. Since then, the star has enjoyed a return to fame, with her incredibly successful “Circus” tour currently selling big in the U.K.
