Britney Spears 'Absolutely Sings' On 'Scream & Shout' Despite Eve's Rumors

Britney's rep says Eve's comments that she might not be the one singing on the will.i.am track are 'completely not true.'

Host Andy Cohen attempted to get real-life Brit and TV chef Nigella Lawson to weigh in Britney's mock British accent on it, but before she could assess her, Eve jumped in. "I heard that might not be Britney," she said on Tuesday's episode. "That's what I heard. But, you know I don't know. It could be Britney, but I heard it wasn't. I don't know though, I don't know."

Well, Spears' team isn't letting the rapper get away with the allegation that easily. They responded to it on Thursday, shutting down the rapper's off-the-cuff remark. "Completely not true," her rep tells MTV News. "Britney absolutely sings on 'Scream & Shout.' "

A rep for Eve had not returned MTV News' request for comment by press time.

While Eve hasn't directly responded to the hoopla over her statement, she did re-tweet this tweet on Thursday, "For the past weeks, blogs have literAlly strived to get @TheRealEve to start beefing by twisting her words. Not working. Lmao."
