Britney Jean Spears
Britney Jean Spears was born on the 2nd
of December, 1981 in McComb, Mississippi & raised in Kentwood,
Louisiana. As a young girl, Britney attended dance classes and was a pro at
gymnastics, winning many contests and other similar. But, most of all, Britney
loved to sing. Britney was 8 years old when the time came for her to be a part
of The All New Mickey Mouse Club (1989) However, her young age led to her being
denied. Britney was then referred to the off-Broadway production
"Ruthless" in which she performed the lead role for two years. She
tried again in The All New Mickey Mouse Club (1989) and this time , as an
actual mouseketeer. However, her most notable break came in the late 1990s when
she was signed as a Jive Recording artist. When she released her debut
album"Baby One Last Time" "...Baby One More Time" in the
early part of 1999, Britney became an international success with 13 million
copies of "Baby" and 9 million (as as of July 2001) of her sophomore
album "Oops !...I Did It Again" that was released in May 2000.
Britney was the daughter of Lynne Spears and Jamie Spears. She has a big
brother Bryan Spears and a little sister Jamie Lynn Spears. Britney was always
destined to be an upcoming star at a young age. Britney loved singing and was
influenced by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Britney auditioned for The All
New Mickey Mouse Club (1989-1994) when she was eight. But she was too old to be
considered a suitable candidate. Instead, Britney, her mother and baby sister
relocated to New York where she starred in numerous TV commercials as well as
an off-Broadway musical, "Ruthless", where she was understudy with
Natalie Portman. Her passion for dancing and music took over and, two years
after, she auditioned for the role on "Mickey Mouse" again, and this
time, got the role with Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake.
