Britney Spears has already locked lips with Madonna during their infamous MTV Video Music Awards performance, and now Spears is locking herself in an elevator.

Shooting started Wednesday at the Lot in West Hollywood for Spears’ video performance for Madonna’s upcoming “Sticky and Sweet” tour, E! Online reports.

Spears arrived to the shoot around 9 a.m. and began shooting around noon, according to an on-set source.

In what is being dubbed as a “short movie,” Spears reportedly enters an elevator disguised with a gray hoodie sweatshirt. As the elevator races up, Spears begins to pace back and forth, becoming more and more agitated. She eventually breaks out into an all-out frenzy.

She then reportedly kicks and smacks the walls and scales the elevator, ripping off her hoodie, stares into the camera and says: “It’s Britney, b---h.”

Madonna’s 1994 hit, “Human Nature,” was reportedly played during some scenes, and Spears mouthed along to the lyrics.

As for the young pop star’s on-set behavior, a source told E! that she was “very professional” during the entire day of shooting.

Though Spears may be a pro, she appeared to be nervous about performing for one of her idols.

“(She was) really nervous and kept biting her nails — but she’s doing a good job,” the source added, “She’s being incredibly sweet!”

Madonna’s “Sticky & Sweet,” with Spears trapped in an elevator, kicks off Oct. 4 in East Rutherford, N.J.
