Zoe Saldana has defended her 'Crossroads' co-star Britney Spears for her auto-tune controversy saying that the singer is an abundance of good energy.

The American actress said that she was pretty sure that 80 percent of their musical artists would be embarrassed if they were caught singing without auto-tune, Us Magazine reported.

The 36-year-old actress said that she had a huge amount of respect for Spears and she had always said this, and she will always continue to say it that Spears was the one big, big celebrity that she met when she started to work in Hollywood.

Saldana added that the singer was the only pop star at that time and she could name a lot of famous figures right now that today were more famous than Spears that literally got to where they were at by hating on Spears for that.
