Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American pop singer. Born in Kentwood, Louisiana, Spears first came to fame as a member of the Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Club in the 1993 and 1994 seasons.
Castmates included Justin Timberlake, and Joshua Chasez, who later became members of the pop band N Sync, and Christina Aguilera, also a pop singer. Spears dated (and shared a house with) Timberlake for some time; according to various tabloids they have broken up and may or may not have reunited.
Her first album, Baby One More Time, debuted in the number 1 spot on the Billboard Charts in early 1999, and also topped the charts in the UK. The single of the same title was also a number 1 hit in many countries, and featured a memorable video clip with Spears wearing a tied-up shirt striding provocatively through a high-school corridor. Her followup album, Oops I Did It Again was a similarly huge success.
From that album her career skyrocketed into a multimillion-dollar music, advertisement, concert and TV-special mania. She is currently a Pepsi spokeswoman, but has, according to an Australian tabloid, drunk Pepsi's long time rival, Coca-Cola. This is indicitive of what Britney Spears is; a mixed message, and an enigma: She uses blatant sexual dance moves, wears provocative, skimpy outfits, and sings music about her lack of innocence, and her wishes to be a "slave for you." While Spears seems to be every young man's dream, she claimed at age 20, be a virgin. She also denies that her image is designed to be sexually provocative.
Her next album, Britney, was released on November 6, 2001. The first single "I'm A Slave 4U" is an R&B-influenced, slightly more mature-sounding tune probably indicating Spears' attempts to grow with her audience beyond young "tween" (pre-teens acting like teens) and teen boys who now are her biggest audience.
