Britney Spears was only 17 when she reached #1 on the U.S. pop music charts with her 1999 debut album ...Baby One More Time. Her catchy tunes and hubba-hubba physique made Spears one of America's biggest pop stars, and she became a near-constant presence on MTV, radio broadcasts and magazine covers around the world. Spears's second album, Oops!...I Did It Again, was released in May of 2000 and went gold in its first week. In 2003 she released In the Zone, but by then her personal life got more press than her singing career. The years 2004 through 2006 saw two marriages, two children, and two divorces. During 2007, the media reported more about her downward spiral of fame gone awry, than success. But in the last year, Britney has done a remarkable turn-about in her life and is continually impressing the media with her resilience.
We hope the good news for Britney continues. (via WeSmirch)
