She was a pop princess adored by millions, then fell sharply in the eyes of the public, shaving her head and abusing alcohol and drugs. And after the court ruled on paternal custody of the singer (and after a rehabilitation course), her career went up again: she was entrusted to be a judge of The X Factor, she signed a contract to perform at a Las Vegas casino and continued to record songs with co-stars. How did the biography of Britney Spears begin?
Biography of Britney Spears
Talented daughter
The educator Lynn-Iren and the builder James from the small town of McCockb in Mississippi grew up two daughters: the youngest Jamie Lynn and the eldest, born on December 2, 1981, Britney. Already at an early age, she showed artistic inclinations: first in rhythmic gymnastics classes, and then in the church choir. Parents wanted their daughter a better fate than life in the provinces, so they encouraged her desire to participate in contests and competitions.
Together with Mickey, Justin, Christina...
At the age of 8, they took her to the Disney channel: there was a casting in the TV show The Mickey Mouse Club. The project managers liked the girl, but they said that she still had to grow up and learn. Therefore, Britney devoted several years to studying at a New York art school. After that, she was taken to the show - for two years she was a member of the "Club", in which not only Britney Spears, but also Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, Christina Aguilera, Keri Russell began their creative biography.
When the program was closed, Britney tried herself as a member of the girl group, but almost immediately decided that she needed to sing a solo. She again lived with her parents, went to school, and at the same time recorded a demo disk. He played a huge role in the fate of the girl: hitting the “right” address, the disc brought the aspiring singer a contract with the Jive Records studio.
Two super-successful albums of the pop princess
At first, she had to “warm up” the audience before the performances of already promoted groups, but at the beginning of 1999, 17-year-old Britney released her debut album “Baby One More Time”, which immediately became the leader in the top of the Billboard 200. He remained the most successful in the biography of Britney Spears, becoming platinum 15 times. In the same year, the singer's first mini-tour, sponsored by L "Oréal" (concerts lasted only half an hour), followed by Spears' tour, which included 80 performances. Fans were delighted with Britney's singing "live" and her well-staged numbers .
Britney's second album was called "Oops! ... I Did It Again" and launched in May 2000. Sales of the disc turned out to be a record: 1.3 million in the first seven days, in total more than 20 million copies were sold. The success was obvious: this album claimed a Grammy, and Britney dreamed of seeing the world's leading brands in her advertising. So, she signed a contract with Pepsi, which brought her several million dollars.
Fantastic Britney
After the release of the third disc "Britney" (in the first week it was sold in 745 thousand copies), they started talking about the phenomenon of the singer: all three of her albums immediately appeared on the first lines of the ratings. Having presented a new disc during an international tour, the singer decided that she would take a six-month time-out. Too many problems piled up in her personal life: Britney Spears just went through a painful breakup with Justin Timberlake, her parents divorced, and her grandmother died.
After returning to the waiting public (and this happened at the end of the summer of 2003), Britney began to record the next album, In the Zone. One of his compositions, "Toxic", won a Grammy. It was the first such prestigious American music award.
Blackout in life and career
And then in the biography of Britney Spears, a "black streak" began. After a short marriage and the birth of two sons one after another, the singer suddenly began to be weird. She shaved her hair, then behaved inappropriately in public, and periodically went to a rehabilitation center.
Work on the new disc was going badly, the whole of 2007 was riddled with rumors about the strange actions of the pop star. In August, the first single of the album "Gimme More" was released, and soon Spears was sued for driving without a license, and then drugs were found in her blood (she was required to regularly undergo tests). In the fall of 2007, her husband Kevin Federline received custody of their sons. And at the same time, a disc of singers with a very appropriate name "Blackout" was released. It became the least successful of Spears' career, although a year later it turned out that sales of "Blackout" reached 3.6 million.
The beginning of 2008 was again overshadowed by a scandal: the pop singer was forcibly taken to a medical center (she resisted the police and did not want to give her children to her husband). At the end of January, repeated hospitalization followed. She was under the supervision of psychiatrists, and then ended up under the care of her father. Spears' incapacity was extended two more times.
Back to the stellar future!
Restoring reputation has been difficult. At the end of 2008, Britney's new disc "Circus" appeared on the shelves, which did not have a resounding success, and only in the spring of 2010 did she start working on the next album, which was released in 2011. That same year, at the MTV Video Music Awards, Spears was presented with the Generation Recognition Award.
In the spring of 2012, the singer signed a lucrative contract: she was invited as a judge on The X Factor vocalists show. The "salary" of the newly-made jury member was unprecedented: 15 million dollars. She got the teenage category, and she brought her pet Carly to the finals (she became the "silver" medalist of the show). But instead of participating in the third season of the competition, Britney decided that she would record another disc and perform concerts in a Las Vegas casino.

To the misfortune of others...
She tried to forget about Justin with others, but those were fleeting connections. And in the spring of 2004, she met Kevin Federline and after 3 months announced her engagement. He left his pregnant girlfriend for her. But, as they say, happiness cannot be built on the misfortune of others. Maybe that's why the marriage with Kevin was fleeting?

Britney Spears is an American singer who achieved wild popularity at a very young age. For several years in a row, Britney, who was called the "pop princess", was the most popular star in the world. However, her story is not only about music, wealth and fame, but also about the other side of show business. After a rapid rise, a terrible fall followed, love ended in betrayal, and glory turned into despair and shame. And will the “fallen star” be able to raise its head again, today the most burning question in the world of show business ...
Britney was born into an American family where her mother worked as a teacher and her father worked as a cook. An ordinary family with an average income, where they somehow raised three children (Britney has a brother and a sister). And suddenly the parents discovered that their financial situation could become better. And all because of my daughter. From childhood, she stood out among her peers, as if an orchid had suddenly grown on a chamomile field. Such - bright, bright, cheerful and open to the world - children can be seen immediately. Britney's parents, who had been staunch Baptists all their lives, immediately understood: the Lord sent them a message!
The fact that the baby is able to attract everyone's attention to herself, the parents first noticed in their church, when their three-year-old daughter suddenly sang one of the traditional Baptist hymns so loudly and provocatively that all the parishioners turned to her voice. Since then, to the delight of everyone, Britney sang hymns to the glory of God all the time. And at the same time, her mother began to take her to singing and dancing classes and assigned her to the rhythmic gymnastics section. When the girl turned 7, her parents decided: the hour had struck. And her mother began to take her to various competitions for young talents. Suffice it to say that Britney has won every pageant in Louisiana!
There was nothing more to catch in her native state, so when the girl turned eight, her mother took her to New York. The producers of the children's show "The New Mickey Mouse Club" on Disney Channel were very surprised when they saw an eight-year-old girl. All the children with whom they had worked before were at least ten. However, after listening to Britney, they agreed that the child was unusual. From that moment on, Britney, as an adult artist, had a real agent. And although she was not taken to the show, she got the opportunity to study at the prestigious Professional Performing Arts School in New York. Well, two years later, when she grew up, she nevertheless got a place in the Mickey Mouse Club, where then also young and unknown Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake became her colleagues. And although the show was closed in 1994, Britney did not disappear. After returning home, she soon recorded a demo CD, which her mother sent to producers from Jive Records. They liked the disc, and Britney, who had just graduated from school, traveled all over the country a week after the graduation ball, speaking as an opening act for popular bands.
It didn't last long, however. 1999 changed everything. You could say he changed the world. Britney Spears' first album, Baby One More Time, was released this year. And… in the first week alone, 124,000 discs were sold out in America! In general, worldwide sales exceeded 9 million copies, making the disc multi-platinum. To say that Britney has become popular is to say nothing. She literally became a celestial, a goddess. She was dubbed a "pop phenomenon" by music critics that year.
Life was ordinary yesterday, and today the star girl has changed beyond recognition. If yesterday her everyday life was occupied by going to school and several circles, today it was a tour, concerts and photo shoots. Including naked. And if yesterday she was afraid to look up at the curly boy Justin Timberlake - her colleague in the Mickey Mouse Club, which she really liked, today the whole world was discussing whether Britney has real boobs? And if the whole world admired her songs, dances, body and face, then America fell in love with Britney especially passionately: in one of the television interviews, she was even forced to promise that she would marry a virgin. Britney promised, causing universal tenderness. Then in this general tenderness nothing touched her: she is loved! And she does what she loves - she sings and dances, so everything is fine. And the very next year, satisfied with life, Britney made a “second salvo”.
Spears' new album, Oops!... I Did It Again, was released in 2000 and broke the previous record by selling 1.3 million copies in America in its first week. In the world, this figure has risen to 20 million.
The world was literally shaking. That year, critics calculated that, by all accounts, Britney's fame had reached an incredible threshold. She became the second most popular in the history of music, failing to "surpass" only the Beatles. Britney literally turned into a “golden goose”: any items - cups, magazines, key chains, etc. were sold, as soon as her image appeared on them. Pepsi-Cola has quintupled its sales since Britney became its face. The girls cut their hair and painted “like Britney”, but the guys dreamed of someone like her.
Who would have thought that it was at this time that her own boyfriend left her? However, it was true. Justin Timberlake announced his breakup. Moreover, he sang a humorous song about it, and even shot a video with a girl who looks like Britney in the title role. In the meantime, the singer was trying to sort things out, Justin, with whom she met for four years, also said on the air of one TV show that Spears, thanks to him, is no longer a virgin. America was disappointed: she had been deceived. The princess did not keep her word. This issue has been discussed in television shows and tabloids. And behind him, no one saw that the star girl was really hurt. Britney even tried to retire from the stage for six months. But they didn't let her go. But was it possible at the zenith of fame, when the girl turned everything she touched into money? And her producers, her team, her clip makers, and, of course, her parents liked this money so much! “Have I been praying for so many years in vain?!” Britney's mom yelled over the phone when she heard that her daughter wanted to take a time out. And the pop princess, like a clockwork, continued to sing, dance, act in videos and smile at the audience with her snow-white smile.
Clip followed clip, album after album, concert after concert. And for all this endless celebration of life, no one really noticed that something was wrong with the princess. Her gaze faded, her movements lost their former spontaneity - Britney seemed to be losing blood. “Yes, she drinks!” suddenly dawned on the public. There was a reason. Another news about Britney Spears looked very strange. Unexpectedly for everyone, in 2004, she married her childhood friend Jason Alexander. No, there was nothing strange in the fact that a young girl got married. Another thing was strange: it was unexpected for her! Not only that, when Britney remembered what she had done last night, she immediately ran to get a divorce. So the marriage lasted only 55 hours. One could, of course, consider all this a prank of a capricious princess, however, it was already impossible not to notice that something was wrong with Britney. The news that appears about her in the press has become one more unpleasant than the other.
The second time Britney got married in the same 2004th year. And this time it seemed to be serious. Her romance with dancer and model Kevin Federline lasted three months. However, America was again not happy. Still: all the tabloids quickly spread the news that for the sake of Britney, her fiancé left the girl in the eighth month of pregnancy. It would seem, ask the guy. Who needed him? It was much more interesting to gossip about the moral character of the failed star virgin, beloved by the whole country yesterday. And the reasons for gossip appeared more and more often. It soon became known that Britney was also pregnant, and having given birth in 2005, she ... became pregnant again. This is how Sean Preston Federline (2005) and Jayden James Federline (2006) were born.
Well, in between pregnancies, more and more shocking news about Britney appeared. The paparazzi caught her on the streets either drunk, or undressed, or with a five-month-old son in her arms, driving a car. Moreover, the photos flew around the world even faster than Britney herself learned about their existence. Now her public appearances were less and less associated with creativity. Increasingly, on the air, the star justified herself for her behavior in front of everyone whose moral expectations she did not live up to.
But all hell broke loose in 2007 when Britney filed for divorce from Federline. The process has become public. And then her husband, who was not needed by anyone, came to the fore yesterday. O sweet burden of glory! Finally, the guy who was unsuccessful in his career did not leave the screens, talking about his ex more and more greasy details. For what? No, no, not out of vanity, of course. And from the very best of intentions: he wanted to save his children from their terrible and immoral mother. And at the same time get alimony from her, of course, as a percentage of her earnings. The trial ended in victory for Federline.
And although Britney did not want to give up the children, barricading herself with them in her mansion, they were taken away.
If at the beginning of the century it soared rapidly to the heavens, now the star had to practically fall through the earth. And it was impossible to look at it without shuddering. One of the worst moments for the singer was the failure of her performance at the MTV Awards in August 2007. Performing the song "Gimme More" from the new album, Britney looked ridiculous. She did not fall into the soundtrack and in time with her dancers. The speech was laughed at. Well, soon the singer gave many new reasons for mockery. She shaved off her gorgeous blond curls, fought with the paparazzi photographing her and even tried to commit suicide. Relatives, who are now seriously concerned, again and again sent her to a rehabilitation center, however, Britney again ran away from there. When she was returned, drugs were found in her blood. And once they found a strange list of people with her. The names, written in a neat column, were numbered, with Federline first. When questioned, Britney calmly explained that these were the ones she was going to kill. After this incident, in 2008, she was hospitalized in a psychiatric clinic at the UCLA Medical Center, where she was declared incompetent, appointing Spears' father as the singer's guardian (and at the same time the manager of her money).
But what about her fans? Amazingly, now those who bought Spears T-shirts yesterday began to poison her with the same rapture. That year, only the lazy did not spit in the direction of Britney. Offended and disappointed in their high moral expectations, America was indignant. And… laughed. Famous artists (including, for example, Pink, Timbaland, Eminem, etc.) mentioned a colleague in their comic songs. There were cartoons about Britney on television, in one of which she, obese (and at that time the star really began to lose shape) and without a leg, chokes on popcorn while sitting in a wheelchair. In the famous animated series "Young Park", there was an episode in which Britney's attempt to commit suicide was ridiculed. According to the plot of the cartoon, Britney Spears is trying to shoot herself with a gun. She puts it in her mouth, but misses, and still tries to get back on stage. The apotheosis of all this was the public prediction of the famous black magician Antonio Vasquez Alba that Britney would die before Christmas by committing suicide. After that, bets began to be made on the Internet, and there were even such “well-wishers” who announced a competition for the most accurate prediction of the date of her death. As a prize, the winner was promised the assignment of the title "Mr. (Mrs.) Death" and a PlayStation game console as a gift. In a few days, several tens of thousands of answers have accumulated on the network on this site ...
Thank God nothing happened to Britney.
In the same year, 2008, she made an attempt to return to the stage by recording a new album, Circus, and backing it up with a world tour. Again successful. This was the case with “Femme Fatale”, released in 2011…
Who knows how this story could have ended. However, it did end peacefully. Britney is cured. She calmed down. And, although the former glory is unlikely to ever return to her, the 32-year-old singer is alive and well. She no longer drinks or rowdy, and the paparazzi have the opportunity to "catch" her only while talking with the children, whom she sees every weekend. Recently, Britney has also become interested in the perfume business, which brings her a good income. And the latest news from the singer on the net is the preparation of a new album, the eighth in a row, which is expected to be released at the end of 2013.
Everything is peaceful and smooth, decent and combed. It can be seen that Britney's parents, who, by the way, are still the guardians of their rich daughter, pray well for her. And at the same time, without wasting time, they are now trying to promote the youngest daughter Jamie Lynn into show business.
