Born December 2, 1981 in Kentwood, Louisiana, Britney first came to fame as a member of Disney'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 now dates (and shares a house with) Timberlake.
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. Her followup album, Oops I Did It Again was a similarly huge success.
Most fans of her melodic, bland pop music are preteen girls, who have unsurprisingly copied her dress and mannerisms. As these combine (according to Spears, literal) virginal innocence and blatant sexual provocation, this imitation has caused quite a deal of concern amongst parents at the appropriateness of often very young "tweenies" unknowingly sending out sexual signals.
