The MTV Video Music Awards is goin’ down on Sunday, and before we bust out this year’s hottest stars in music, we’re taking a trip back to 2001, when Britney Spears<\/strong><\/a> famously hit the stage with a very ssspecial guest.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Check out the gallery<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>— <\/strong>Before she even took center stage, the spotlight was all on Brit, who showed up looking fine, fierce and freakishly-hot in a revealing sheer dress, leaving little to the imagination.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

What was considered super racy back then is now just sexy and lacy. Britney was ahead of her time, setting the trend for a generation.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The then 19-year-old was at the top of her game — topping the music charts, and casually snagging behind-the-scenes shots with her man Justin Timberlake<\/strong><\/a> and fellow pop star Jennifer Lopez<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

As for her iconic performance, Spears clawed her way out of a lion’s cage as “I’m a Slave 4 U” blasted through the Metropolitan Opera House\u00a0at Lincoln Center\u00a0in New York\u00a0City.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The show continued to heat up with a stellar dance routine topped off with a real-life giant yellow snake wrapped around her synched bod.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
