Regarding the Britney recording,...the audience isn't hearing what we are hearing. Britney sings to a soundtrack that is being pumped into her ears so she can sing along. What you are hearing is only supposed to be what she is hearing in her headset along with the track.
But this is entertainment. Don't be surprised,..Janet does it, Beyonce does it, Rhianna does it. Hell years ago ZZ TOP did it, not with vocals but with their instruments.
Aside,..Susan Boyle deserves all the adulation she receives. Whether she is great, good or even mediocre it doesn't matter. Music is subjective. Some of the greatest music critics in the world are legends in their own minds, musically speaking and never had the talent or luck to make it. That's why they write,...and don't perform.
