Biography
Britney Jean Spears is an American singer born December 2, 1981, widely regarded as the "Princess of Pop" and one of the most influential entertainers of the 21st century. She began her professional career in 1992 as a cast member on Ruthless! and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club before signing with Jive Records in 1997. Her breakthrough single "...Baby One More Time" became her first US Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper and one of the best-selling singles in history. As the best-selling teenage artist of all time, her albums ...Baby One More Time (1999), Oops!... I Did It Again (2000), and Britney (2001) dominated the early 2000s. She expanded into film with Crossroads (2002) and continued releasing albums including In the Zone (2003), which featured "Toxic"—a track that won the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Recording. After facing lifelong public scrutiny and mental health struggles, Spears was placed under a controversial conservatorship in 2008, during which she recorded Circus (2008), Femme Fatale (2011), Britney Jean (2013), and Glory (2016). With singles "Womanizer", "3", and "Hold It Against Me", she became the third woman to top the Billboard Hot 100 across three decades. She withdrew from concert touring in 2019 to focus on her conservatorship case, which was dissolved in 2021 following her public testimony against her family and management. A Sagittarius with life-path number 6 [birth fact], Spears embodies resilience and creative reinvention across decades. She announced her departure from music in 2024 and sold her entire music catalogue for $200 million in 2026. As an actor and singer, she remains one of the best-selling music artists of all time with estimated sales exceeding 150 million records. Her accolades include one Grammy, six MTV Video Music Awards, seven Billboard Music Awards, and a Hollywood Walk of Fame star. Outside music, her 2005 fragrance Fantasy generated over $1.5 billion in sales by 2011. Her story was documented in Framing Britney Spears (2021) and her memoir The Woman in Me (2023).
