Britney Spears: Hold It Against Me Meaning
Song Released: 2011
Hold It Against Me Lyrics
Please forgive me
If I'm coming on too strong
Hate to stare
But you're winning
And they're playing my favorite song
So come here
'Little closer
Wanna whisper in your ear
Make it clear
Little question
Wanna know just...

This song was actually co written by someone named Bonnie McKee and he once stated that it was written about Katie perry. I guess he was also helping katy on her album at the time and thought she looked really good in an outfit said “would you hold it against me if I said you looked really good” or something along those lines and then wrote a song being inspired by the line

She wants the guys dick against her.

Start of career- represented by the meteor that hits earth. This is like her arrival to the music industry.
Celebrity status- as she's putting on perfume and getting makeup applied, this glam image portrays her fame.
Popularity- As she's floating up in her long white dress, surrounded by walls of her old music videos- this is the "process" or "history" of all the work she's accomplished so far, gaining the immense success she has.
Love Relationships- As she's looking at the "Plenty of Fish" site on the touchscreen TV-with a variety of guy's profiles, she's chosen one to fall in love with.
Breakdown- we all know that period when she had lots of personal issues and internal struggles, with her shaving her head and going through custodies with her ex husband. The paint splattered everywhere & her descending shows her fall in reputation as she's ridiculed by press and the public during this time. Her meltdown is shown as she fights with herself, collapses with her dress ruined as well as the past videos in the screens.
Comeback- She slowly rises from the floor and goes back to her glam image, with her dancing that represents the pop princess she's always been known as! She's back harder and stronger. ;-) -
i thought it meant that she wants the guy's penis(the "it") so, she say she wants the guy to hold it(referring to the penis) against her since she sing this after she sing "so if i want your body now" then "would you hold it against me"

She is society's puppet and with all of who control her-she is ready to break free and is speaking to her audience "enough!" Brittany brings her strong comeback in her song "Hold it Against Me" and is finally ready to be free among the people and in life she will no longer be that one spot in the light-or the publicity doll. She is her own self, and Brittany believes in achieving whatever goals she sets her mind to.

The video represents her life. She came in like a comet, rose to fame in the spotlight, had a battle with herself, fell - defiling all that she once was, and now coming back stronger. It's beautiful.
