Britney Spears Biography
Britney Jean Spears, often referred to as the “Princess of Pop,” was born on December 2, 1981, in McComb, Mississippi.
She is a singer from the United States who is credited with inspiring the resurrection of teen music in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Spears is one of the world’s best-selling music artists, having sold over 150 million records worldwide.
At the age of fifteen, Spears signed with Jive Records. Her first two studio albums, “…Baby One More Time” (1999) and “Oops!… I Did It Again” (2000), are all-time best-sellers, making her the best-selling teenage artist of all time. For her albums “Britney” (2001) and “In the Zone” (2003), she adopted a more mature and provocative style, and she starred in the film “Crossroads” (2002).

In 2019, her court battle over her conservatorship grew more public, sparking the #FreeBritney movement. Following her public testimony in which she accused her management team and relatives of abuse, the conservatorship was terminated in 2021.
