Britney Spears
Britney Spears is an American pop singer who rose to global fame in the late 1990s with hits like "…Baby One More Time" and "Oops!...
I Did It Again." Her career, personal struggles, and controversial conservatorship made her a fixture of tabloid culture.
She became a symbol of both teen pop stardom and the destructive side of celebrity: She's having a Britney moment.
