LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – A fake Britney Spears “The Edge of Glory” video is prompting confusion today. Fans are questioning if Britney Spears is singing Lady Gaga’s song “The Edge of Glory” in a new video leaked online Sunday. Several news sites have reported the recording is Britney. However, it’s a fake.

Faux Britney Spears has prompted so much confusion over the YouTube recording that not just fans but also news sites fell for the clip. In fact, the singer of the recording is someone who has done countless other Britney Spears impersonation recordings previously.

One wrote “People are jealous. I think the girl who did this is amazing.” The fake video is here, the original video is here and an example of the impersonator’s other works is located here.
