   Britney Spears poses with “extended family” who made Femme Fatale tour possible

The latest issue of V Magazine brings a photospread meant to celebrate the biggest tours of 2011 – and the people that made them possible. The Britney Spears photo is all sorts of ridiculous.

As fans must know, Britney was on the Femme Fatale tour throughout 2011 so, given its success, it was only natural to have her mentioned next to Katy Perry and Ke$ha.

However, as you can notice from the large thumb above (click to get to the photo in full), there's something really off about Mrs. Spears.

She's been retouched beyond recognition, made to look thinner, leaner and perhaps even younger too, word online has it.

Some voices (the incurable skeptics, most likely) say that she wasn't even there when the photo was taken and that she was added in the editing room.

A closer look at the pic tells you the theory is not as far-fetched as you might be initially tempted to think.

Sound off in the comments section on that.
