Britney Spears is an American singer, songwriter, actress and author.
As a child, she appeared in a number of off-Broadway productions, as well as the television programs, in a spot in Star Search, and for about a year in the New Mickey Mouse Club on the Disney Channel.
Britney Spears rose to international stardom in 1999 when she released her debut album, ...Baby One More Time, which spawned five hit singles, including one (also called ...Baby One More Time) which rose to the number 1 spot in the Billboard Hot 100.
Britney's subsequent albums and singles have also been huge commercial successes, and have also received critical acclaim: she has been nominated for several Grammy Awards, and in fact won one for the single, Toxic, which was released in 2004 (from the album, In The Zone) . In total, Britney Spears has sold over 80 million records worldwide. In fact, according to the Record Industry Association of America, Britney Spears is the 8th best-selling female artist in American music history, and has sold over 30 million albums in the US alone.
As well as her music career, Britney Spears has also appeared in various movies and television programs, including starring in the 2002 movie, Crossroads. Britney has also participated in a number of advertising campaigns and has her own perfume line.
In 2004, Britney Spears married Kevin Federline. Although the couple divorced in 2006, she does have two children from her marriage, Sean Preston and Jayden James. As a result of these events, as well as a custody battle for the children, and controversial public behavior, Britney Spears' personal life has been subject to as much, if not more, media interest as her music and career.
