Britney Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American pop singer who catapulted to fame with her 1999 hit song "...Baby One More Time". By singing about adolescent sexuality while professing to be a virgin, Spears became a magnet of popular attention.

Her version of "morality" was to delay premarital sex until age 21, when she had relations with Justin Timberlake. After that, she plunged headlong into concert and recording industry, exploiting her "pop tart" persona with stunts such as a televised lesbian kiss with her mentor Madonna Ciccone and a short-lived Las Vegas marriage.

She married dancer Kevin Federline in 2004 and gave birth to two children before the couple divorced in 2006. Spears and Federline initially had joint custody of the children, but a court granted Federline sole custody after Spears was charged with hit-and-run and driving without a license in late 2007. Early in 2008, she was carried from her house in a stretcher and later involuntarily held in a psychiatric ward. Control of Spears finances has been temporarily ceeded to her father.
