Britney's perfumes have been so successful that Elizabeth Arden has created spinoffs. Curious became In Control Curious, Fantasy became Midnight Fantasy and now Arden is set to launch Britney's latest scent, Believe this October. The ad that Bella has posted has created much debate. The rumor is that Britney's head was photoshopped on the body of a stylist in the picture. A rep for Elizabeth Arden has denied it, saying,
“We recently shot Britney Spears for the print campaign for her new fragrance Britney Spears Believe, in Santa Monica. It is true that Britney did leave the set; however, she returned after a brief time. Cayli was the wardrobe assistant on the shoot. We used her as a stand in so that we could set up the lighting while Britney was off the set. When Britney returned, we shot the national print ad with her. The only person in the national print ad for Britney's Believe fragrance is Britney Spears.”
It's clear if Britney did ever look that good again then she is not working on maintaining it based on these pics of a less toned Spears. At least she's with her cute pants-less boys in matching monkey shirts having some fun with a birdbath. All this innocent play is a better image for Britney to portray considering Kevin filed for more custody. No updates on that front yet, but at least Britney is spending time with her own little men rather than random college boys.

Her next perfume will be called "Gullable"
1if that is britney in the new ads, they sure as hell used a lot of photoshop.
2Bullsh*t. Maybe "[t]he only person in the national print ad for Britney's Believe fragrance is Britney Spears" but it has to be an old picture(s). She just doesn't have that body, anymore.
3I'm sure it's possible that it started out as Britney's body but through photoshopped it morphed into someone else. There is no way in a gazillion years I would believe that is her body today - do they think we're stupid? She looks nothing like that - not even her face looks like that or her hair (I know, I didn't need to state the obvious).
4Believe - a new fragrance by Britney Spears. Wear it and you too will come to believe that you have the power within to totally screw up your life. Mist yourself with the elixor of
5skank and glow in the scent of scrag. The secret.....just wear it badly and believe.
ok i love brit and all but come on now! either that's some major photoshopping or it's a stand in. no way that's her body. maybe 10 years ago it was.
6looks more like an old photo of her
7It looks like her face in the 90s on top of somebody else's body. I don't believe Britney has been in that good of shape in the past couple of years.
8I have no idea if it's her own body or not, sure is, that it's like totally photohopped. The days are over that Britney looked like THAT for real.
9who are they trying to kid, theres no way its an untouched pic of britney-it may have been her but they went to town on the photoshop.
10I believe it is her because of a little thing called airbrushing.
11In shape or not, Britney is still a talented young woman.
12Toned or not toned, she looks like a decent mom in these pics (oh, minus the extrememly short shorts and tight shirt, and all the exposed skin).
13It's great that she lets her kids play with the sitting bird bath water, because that IS one of the leading ways to contract West Nile Virus. Good job, Brit.
14I call either fake body, MAJOR photoshopping or old photo.
15Sorry, but it's a huge insult to the public's intelligence to suggest that that photo was taken recently. It looks five years old or MORE. Please!
16thank god for photoshop! i still hope brit gets everything together and makes a really good comeback!
17Oh my...I don't know what to say. Cute pics here...but like always, some type of controversy is surrounding Britney Spears.
18I am not a believer. The photo of Britney looks nothing like her current self. So yes, it's either a stand in, an old picture (even her face doesn't look like that anymore), or an extremely photoshopped image. It will be interesting to see if the new scent sells.
19i agree with you absolute lauren...yuck!!! is she going to let them play in the catbox next?
20Cute kids.
21she wasn't a mom when this was taken if it even is her. How dumb do they think we are??
22ok, she really needs to buy some clothes that fit her, shes naking me sick. total slob.
23That has got to be one of the most unsanitary activities for kids. They'd be better off going barefoot in a gas station's restroom. I 'beleive' she's an idiot.
24When do advertisers NOT take liberties and photoshop and/or retouch pictures? It's the name of the game! Remember those pics Kate Winslet was so pissed about a couple of years ago where they made her look like a stick? OF COURSE they fixed Brit up. It's what they do to sell the product!
25i read somewhere that it was shot a few months ago. so its possible its her- with the help of photoshop of course- cause there was a few weeks a while back where she was starting to get back into good shape. before she let it go to sh*t again of course. but even if it is her- of course its photoshopped. no one has that flawless skin
26as for what she is wearing in this pic- this is the only time i'll defend her- she's in the "privacy" of her own back yard it looks like. she should be able to wear what she wants there. its when she steps out in public that a stylist should attack her and save her. also, as long as she washed her kids hands after- i see no harm in this. i mean c'mon when i was a kid i know i prob got dirty and touched dirty stuff- its being a kid. it was my mom's job to make sure i washed up!
27Can she EVER put some pants on those kids?
28is this taken in her own backyard? it doesn't seem right to take pictures of her and her kids in their own yard. as long as they take bathes afterwards this isn't a big deal.
29i think the outfit looks fine, my mom wears stuff like this in the winter.
ummmm, I DONT Believe.
30as for the pants thing, they're little boys in their yard. pants are not required.
31Everybody knows she's fat and zitty. Of course they photoshopped the photos! She is like a modern day Beverly Hillbillies. Very, very sad. If she had any sense, she'd take her millions and go back to Louisiana and raise those kids and then make a comeback in like 10 years. Or - better yet - give Kevin the kids and just go away.
32BULLSH!T!!!!! No way in H-E- double L that is her body, or even that it was photoshopped. I don't think any photoshop program would be powerful enough to tackle that body and turn it into the body from the ad.
On a related note, she looks to have gained even more weight in these pics...
33it could possibly have been air-brushing. that's pretty standard in the industry so i don't know why people are so up in arms over it. of course it's not REALLY britney.
34It looks like they are in their pajamas. When it was warm my kids would only wear t-shirts and diapers to bed. The water in the bird bath looks pretty clean to me. I wonder why everyone is so fast to judge poor Brit. The only info we have on her parenting skills is what the media tells us. OMG am I defending her?????? I....must...stop....typing.....;oP
35What a wreak. Anna Nicole Smith in the making. I feel her end will be the same.
36Sorry to say it Otter, but birdbaths are never clean and even if this one is it's a terrible precedent to set. My two year old is never allowed to touch our bird bath even when it's "clean." I certainly don;t play n it with him. That's what water tables and wading pools are for. But. . .it's not the dumbest parenting move she's ever made. . .
37That's not her body in thet ad, not even her hands!!! If Kevin takes the kids away from her that will be it she will have to be put in a mental health facility or whatever it's call...
38DAMAGE CONTROL!
39eww nobody is going to buy that perfume if those are somewhat the pictures are going to look like.
40Oh Puuleeeeze!!! That cannot be Brit's body. If it is, then they photoshopped the HELL out of it!
41even her face and hair looks good, my god they must of spent a million dollars on photo shop.
42I have never in my life bought a celebrity fragrance
43I bought Jlo once and it smells nice but it doesn't last long.
44totally photoshopped
45That ad featured a Britney Spears circa 1998. Nobody in their right mind would believe she's getting younger in her appearance. The hair, the face, the outfit...they're all old school britney.
By the way, anybody else think splashing in a birdbath is YUCKY? EW all that stagnant water, and bird stuff!
46I think it is her but is an old photo. She can't sit still long enough these days to complete a photoshoot.
Were these taken while she was in her own backyard? I'm all for seeing Brit actually with her kids, but not if the paps have to go to these lengths to get them
47Photoshop works wonders, apparently! I think SP & JJ are so cute.
48So it is photoshopped. um, aren't 99 perecent of the ads out there. Have you seen some of the Mariah Carey perfume ads, same thing, photoshopped. Angelina add yesterday? photoshopped. This is nothing new.
49It's not someone other than Britney. It's just not technically Britney. It's not even a photograph once you get down to it - it's a computer generated/manipulated artist's rendition.
