We’d believe Britney was actually singing on stage before we’d believe this was an accurate picture of her.
We’d believe auto-tune was a natural skill. We’d believe she still missed JT. We’d even consider giving Crossroads an Oscar before we’d give in to admitting we thought this looked anything like the Britney Jean Spears who’s been in our lives for the past 15 years.
