Touch of My Hand
 " Touch of My Hand" is a pop song from American pop singer Britney Spears, featured on her 2003 fourth studio album In the Zone (see 2003 in music). During her Onyx Hotel Tour, Spears received much criticism for her performance of "Touch of My Hand", as well as for the song "Breathe on Me", both of which featured scantily clad dancers performing explicit routines simulating sex, orgies and masturbation. During the performance of "Touch of My Hand", Spears came out on stage in a white robe, which she soon removed to reveal a completely see-through skin-colored suit that gave the illusion of nudity. She then proceeded to dance suggestively in a clear bath tub, at one point even simulating masturbation.
