Yes, but she is also lying about her vocals. Britney Vault on ig had recepies.

Eh, I'd give her benefit of the doubt that she was mistaken rather than lying. I can kind of hear a resemblance even if it isn't her.

I'm guessing this?

Newly leaked recording sessions confirm that Tulisa is not present in the released version of Scream & Shout (via BritneysVault).

It's so shitty to me that she only got 10% out of that. The original producer just decided she shouldn't have her own song, passed it to will.u.stop who fully knew she'd written it, fuck them and none of them should see that money.

(I'm sure it was probably decided on something logical like what % the court felt of hers remained after they tinkered, but in my benign dictatorship she'd get the lot on principle)

Normally publishing royalties are split equally between songwriters and publishers 50/50 but since there are 4 credited writers on the song the court probably decided to split 50% between all 4 of them. Seeing how she and Jef Martens are the original
writers with the other two just adding on to the skeleton track, they should have been awarded a larger percentage but kudos to her for not getting bitter over the verdict. I just don’t understand how the producer could have just handed over her track without her permission or knowledge. My guess is that she signed over a part of her publishing to the producer which allowed him to do this.

Her face looks painful

I mean it might be. She has Bell’s Palsy and did a lot of work to try and help her face even out when it flares up. That’s what she said anyway. I don’t know how much cosmetic things help with Bells in that respect

Sorry to this person but this is still my highest score in Just Dance and I will not let her take that away from me.

It's still a Britney song. You can keep enjoying it.
