Between the epic battle between Bethenny and Jill on Bravo's "Real Housewives of New York," you probably missed the earth-shattering news that Countess LuAnn de Lesseps has put out a single.

On "Money Can't Buy You Class," the countess, ahem, sings with the obvious help of Auto-Tune, that pitch-fixing wonder of modern technology. (Think Cher's "Believe" and anything by Britney.)

The countess shares these nuggets of wisdom: "Elegance is learned, my friends. Elegance is learned, oh yeah." Hear it at: www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-new-york-city/videos/money-cant-buy-you-class

LuAnn's assessment of her talent: "I'm not, you know, Madonna, but I could be the female Barry White." Think again, le Countess. Barry is rolling over in his grave.

Back in 2009, wig-wearing, Big Papa-loving Kim Zolciak of the Atlanta "Housewives" recorded "Don't Be Tardy for the Party," another Auto-Tune monstrosity. At least with Kim, you expect inane lyrics: "Looking like a cover girl. Covered in diamonds and pearls. Take the Benz out for a swirl. Drop that top, yeah, it's my world."

But, really, when do reality TV stars ever let lack of talent stand in their way?
