Britney Spears' most loyal fans are saying gimme more right about now. 

The pop sensation's steamy music video for "Make Me" dropped on Friday, causing many to question the differences between the visuals released and the details Spears had originally teased. When E! News stopped by the set of Britney's project in June, the video was being directed by David LaChapelle. Additionally, the "Piece of Me" singer shared behind-the-scenes photos of the shoot that didn't make the final cut.

 A source told E! News that there were simply "creative differences" at play that led Brit to tap Randee St. Nicholas as the new director. 

But when footage from what appeared to be the original music video leaked online, a Change.org petition launched demanding its release.

The petition, which reads, "We ask that RCA Records/Sony Music Entertainment release the original video that was filmed by David Lachapelle for the song," has more than 12,000 signatures. Spears has not commented publicly on the petition or the changes surrounding the music video.

Amid the excitement surrounding the video's premiere, Spears also released her second single from the album, "Private Show." Speaking to On Air With Ryan Seacrest, Spears said of her ninth studio album, "It's cool, it's really different. I think this is probably the most hip-hop album. Not most, there are like two or three songs that go in the direction of more urban that I've wanted to do for a long time now, and I just haven't really done that."

"Make Me," featuring G-Eazy, is the first single from Britney's upcoming album titled Glory, which hits airwaves August 26.
