Do you want a piece of her... wardrobe?
Britney Spears has announced that she is teaming with the American Red Cross and CrowdRise to raise money for the victims of the devastating flood in Louisiana.
A $10 donation gives people a chance to win either the outfit she is planning to wear at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards this Sunday or a trip to meet her in New York City before the show.
Named the worst U.S. natural disaster since Hurricane Sandy by the Red Cross, the deadly flood hits close to the 34-year-old pop star's heart. The mother of two grew up in Kentwood, La., and still has a home there.

Also in on the relief efforts, Taylor Swift donated $1 million last week, saying, "We began the 1989 world tour in Louisiana and the wonderful fans there made us feel completely at home. The fact that so many people in Louisiana have been forced out of their own homes this week is heartbreaking."
Per The New York Times, the latest report from the Department of Children and Family Services states that more than 2,800 individuals remain in shelters and at least 60,000 homes have been damaged across south Louisiana, while more than 106,000 people have registered for federal disaster aid.
