Britney Spears’ comeback to pop has been dealt with a hurtful blow – Her cameo in the new Pussycat Dolls video has been cut from the final edit!

The pop wreck filmed a clip for the Pussycat Dolls' music video in which she returns to her natural blonde locks.

Spears filmed the segment in a car in Los Angeles last week, and a source tells Usmagazine of her appearance: "They all wave at each other as they are passing in traffic - that is it. Of course, Britney looks hot and blonde.

"It is a very short sequence, but (Spears) had a lot of fun with it. Britney really likes the Dolls' music and when she saw them on the MTV (Movie Awards), she was totally down to do the video."

But the cameo has now been shelved for good for reasons as yet unknown, reports MTV. Maybe the burlesque group were worried about being overshadowed by the Toxic singer?
