Having trouble sorting fact from fiction when it comes to Britney Spears? Allow Britney herself to help you out.

The pop star has introduced a new "Bulls#!t Alerts" page on her Web site, meant to deliver "the inside scoop straight from Britney and her team on what's true and what's bull."

The page launches by focusing on the bull, and lots of it. A post titled "The Year in BS" presents a list of the 75 most outlandish media stories reported about Britney over the past year, as determined by the Spears team.

"There were more then 13,000 stories written about Britney in 2009," says the post. "We ranked the ones we believe were the most ridiculous. Either because they were factually inaccurate, because they reported the patently absurd, or because we believe they are simply offensive to the sensibilities.

The No. 1 story on the list, from the Mirror in the U.K., claimed that Britney was dating Indian choreographer Sandip Soparrkar.

Also in the top 10: reports that Spears, 28, wasn't prepared for her world tour, that she thought her father was drugging her, that she was dating music producer Dallas Austin, and that she filmed a music video topless.
