Music producer William Orbit has come to the defence of pop star Britney Spears after audio of her original vocal take for the song Alien leaked online.
The audio, which one YouTube commentator described as "nasal and off key," is markedly different to that which appeared on the final cut of the song, which featured on her 2013 album, Britney Jean, reported Gigwise.
The audio has been slammed by fans online, but Orbit came to the pop star's defence.
