@FryRsquared Here is my absolute favorite, published in Nature. When Britney Spears Comes to My Lab. https://t.co/0eyTE715Gv
The biggest travesty of Nature's 2008 piece "When Britney Spears comes to my lab" is that they failed to mention her hit single "Cite me baby one more time" (also, I'm still reeling that they published this) https://t.co/6QNXYjpAzC

While liberals "believe in science", top scientific journal, Nature, hosts spicy article on... Britney Spears. You can't make this up.
Update via @RetractionWatch on the 2008 #BritneySpears fanfic article via @Nature. Both this and the 2011 Womanspace article (see the below thread) are disgraceful and need to be retracted in my opinion. Ping @nisslbodies https://t.co/03xSe3z6KZ
