While promoting her new reality show ‘Braxton Family Values’ on BET’s 106 & Park yesterday, the 43 year old revealed that she’s mulling over whether to leave the industry drama behind and focus on motherhood.

Once again, Pop star Britney Spears has found herself in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. For, following the mass critique levelled against her incessant lip-syncing and lazy routines, Spears has supposedly been “caught out” using a stunt-double in the video for her latest single ‘Till The World Ends’.

According to the purveyors of the image above, the 29 year old enlisted Tiana Brown (who danced with Spears on her ‘Circus’ tour) to perform the more taxing choreography in the Ray Kay directed clip.

Predictably, Spears’ team vehemently deny the claims.

——————————————-

Oh Britney.

If only for her sake, this needs to be proven untrue. For, if a stunt-double was truly used for that wickety-wack choreo, then it may very well be a wrap for Ms. Spears. I mean, if she’s struggling to do a basic 8-count, what really is the point? The music isn’t saying a whole lot either. Sigh.

In all fairness, it’s as clear as Rihanna‘s lack of talent that Spears’ melt-down has had a profound effect on her abilities. Stunt-double or otherwise, one look in her oft-vacant eyes re-affirms that. Still, as I’m sure her team drum into her, there’s money to be made – and making it, she and her team, are. By hook or by crook.

Your thoughts?

Former Danity Kane star Aubrey O’Day is back with new reality show ‘All About Aubrey’. The Oxygen show sees the ever-outspoken singer battling her way back into the music industry.

Initially a little cynical about this all, yours truly was pleasantly surprised with how legitimate Aubrey and the show come across. Put simply, this is essential viewing.
