Director Jonas Akerlund, who handled the videos for 'Hold It Against Me' and 'Telephone,' helmed the clip, which features shots of Aguilera and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine dancing in front of flags -- both an American flag, with confetti shooting into the air, and a British flag, in an apparent nod to the heritage of the song's namesake, Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger.

The jacket went to bidder Milton Verret, a Texas-based commodities trader, who says he will show the jacket “around the country in a tour that will help raise money for children’s charities.”

The set, which opens with newer material such as ‘Hold It Against Me’ and ’3,’ also makes room for a pair of cuts from the deluxe edition of ‘Femme Fatale’ (‘He About to Lose Me’ and ‘Up N’ Down’), as well as Britney’s version of Rihanna’s ‘S&M’ (which featured Spears on the remix) and a cover of Madonna’s ‘Burning Up.’

The remix opens with a fun couple of verses from Minaj, who also happens to be joining Britney on tour this summer. Ke$ha chimes in a bit later with her own take on the song's chorus, auto-tune and all.

But just how does the song compare to the original?

After what feels like an eternity, new music from pop diva Beyoncé has finally made its way onto the Internet, and once again, it's an anthem to women around the world.

Much like 'Single Ladies,' 'Girls (Who Run the World)' celebrates the power of the female sex, and is an up-tempo, aggressive song that is sure to go over well in clubs everywhere.

But will it be as big a hit as 'Single Ladies'?

That's exactly what the team at PopCrush did this week with their comprehensive Top 10 Songs of 2011 (So Far) list, which highlights everyone from Katy Perry, to Rihanna to Britney Spears.
