Britney in better days

The entertainment industry is in overdrive today following a Sydney journalist’s exposé of Britney Spears' miming during live concert appearances. Reporter Rebecca Paulin was among the thousands in attendance at Britney’s latest world tour, Circus, and discovered the lip-synching stunt after noticing the performer ‘didn’t even open her mouth during songs’.

News of the fake performance spread like wildfire, with many fans leaving early to return to their trailer parks disappointed and hurt.

“I paid two-hundred dollars for them tickets, and she done gone just fake the whole thing!” one fan told reporters outside of the event. “I saved hard to get here, I had to wash three-hundred cars and sell my favourite shootin’ gun.”

While no stranger to controversy, Spears now joins the infamous ranks of lip-synching artists including Luciano Pavarotti, Ashlee Simpson, and every pop-singer in history.

Internet blogger Chris Crocker, who shot to fame in 2007 while crying on YouTube over Britney’s downward spiral, is expected to release a lip-synched impassioned plea in the next 24 hours.

Reporter Rebecca Paulin said some fans would be angry and may turn against Britney, although her popularity would undoubtedly surge again in the near future. The highly-decorated news veteran is well known for her investigative journalism and hard-hitting reporting, uncovering golfing star Tiger Woods’ favourite cap colour as white. Paulin is also widely regarded throughout the Australian media as being responsible for revealing the religion of Pope Benedict XVI to be Catholic, sending shockwaves throughout Vatican City.

Late last year Paulin achieved international acclaim after proving that bears really do shit in the woods.
