Britney Spears has just made a singing comeback. Well, Britney Spears returns in style. But what about these straw hat, over sized shades, panties (!) and shorts and naked chest? Are the photo shots real, hmm?

Britney Spears, a pop signer and – for us, above all – fashion model, made her long-anticipated return to the stage.  At last. On May 1, late in the night the pop princess performed a 14-minute set for screaming fans in San Diego.

The pop diva, wearing a black wig and white pleated miniskirt, took to the stage at the San Diego House of Blues at about 10:15 p.m.

Just hours after the performance, some Britney's pictures, in a straw hat and over sized shades, dropped her white linen top and posed for the pictures in a garden of a friend's house holding only a couple of bright red flowers to cover her chest (at least if you trust the pictures, their origin is here), start surfing the Internet and igniting online discussions.

These pictures  were apparently taken in early April 2007.
