"Alien" leak pulls back the curtain on Britney Spears suspect singing skills

    1 of 2 2 of 2

      Want to hear what Britney Spears sounds like before she gets Auto-Tuned up the wazoo?

      Check out this leaked, pre-studio-shellac version of "Alien" off the former teen-pop star's most recent album, Britney Jean.

      Like the revelations from her former bodyguard that Spears is a completely unrepentant farter, it's anything but pretty. But then again--as proven by that shot Russell Brand took of Katy Perry first thing in the morning--reality seldom is.

      Who can be surprised by this? The YouTube poster notes, with apparent amazement, that Britney Spears records her songs "all at once", unlike other pop stars.

      Well, knock me over.

      Apparently, recording her songs "all at once", and without the benefit of AutoTune, never occurred to Sarah Vaughn, Ella Fitzgerald, Lena Horne, Billie Holliday, Ethel Waters, Mahalia Jackson, Peggy Lee, Dinah Washington, Nina Simone, Josephine Baker, Barbara Hendricks, Keeley Smith... you know. REAL singers.
