Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera were once considered among the world’s sexiest singers. However, Phillip Swann, aka Swanni, says things have certainly changed.

Swann, the president of TVPredictions.com, has just named his ‘Best & Worst’ looking musicians for 2006, as viewed in high-def, which offers a picture up to six times clear than regular TV.

Ms. Spears was named by Swanni as one of the worst looking musical artists in high-def. Here’s what Swanni has to say about how the pop singer looks in HD.

“Mrs. Federline is just 24, but she looks 34 in HDTV. Her skin is puffy and covered with small blemishes. In high-def, she looks like a different person. And considering the disappointing sales of her last two albums, her record company might think she’s become a different person,” Swanni says.

However, Swanni says Ms. Aguilera looks even better in high-def.

“The singer has nice skin and beautiful white teeth. But it’s her sparkling blue eyes that really shine in high-def. Very pretty. If Madonna ever has to reprise her MTV kiss, she would be wise to skip Britney and go straight for Christina,” Swanni says.

Swanni’s commentaries on how celebrities look different in high-def have been featured in hundreds of publications, including The New York Times Magazine and The Financial News, and on CNN, Fox News and MSNBC.

Britney Spears has lashed out at the paparazzi, claiming they’re stopping her living a normal life with her son, Sean Preston. She says she can’t take him outside for fear of being swamped by snappers.

“I don’t really go out with him. It’s kind of sad because I can’t walk down the street with a stroller,” she said, according to People magazine.

“Princess Diana got killed by one of these people. They’re crossing the line.”

“I’m not expecting people to pity me. I’m just telling the truth. I sound bitter. I’m not bitter. I’m doing great. I really am. I’m happy.”

Britney Spears is working on a new album to boost the “boring” American pop scene.

Spears, who is now anxious to resume her music career, revealed in People Magazine that a new record could be released later this year.

“This may sound weird, but I miss travelling,” she said. “I miss the road, seeing different places and being with the dancers and having fun. That feeling of being on the stage, knowing it’s your best — I love that. I needed a break. I needed to be hungry again.”

Of the current state of pop music, she said: “It’s been boring. Nothing’s been wow to me.”

Britney Spears is opening up for the first time since welcoming Baby Sean Preston into the world. The singer is on a high note as she talks to People magazine about re-discovering her voice, getting back in shape and the much-talked about “Baby Gate.”

People Magazine’s Jamie Bufalino relayed Brit’s revelations about starting this new chapter in her life.

Regarding the buzz and criticism surrounding the car seat scandal, Bufalino said, “It’s been a very unfortunate incident for her and her family.”

Doting mother Britney would never put her precious baby boy at risk; he’s her pride and joy, and she revealed that he’s the inspiration behind her desire to get back in the studio and record a new album. “She’s really re-discovered her talent for singing by singing to Sean Preston,” Bufalino revealed.

In addition to a new album, which Britney said to expect by the end of the year, Spears is excited to debut her hot new body! “She’s getting into pre-baby shape by doing a combination of cardio, yoga, Pilates and weight lifting.”

But as Britney gets her life back on track, it seems that her husband Kevin Federline is still reverting to his old ways.

According to entertainment website TMZ.com, K-Fed and his buddies were playing war games in the streets of Los Angeles on Monday. “They were all over a residential area shooting air guns with rubber pellets,” said Harvey Levin, managing editor of TMZ. “They were hitting cars, buildings; they are lucky that it didn’t put somebody’s eye out.”

Britney begins her comeback with a live appearance on “Good Morning America” on February 28, and a guest spot of “Will and Grace” on April 13.
