Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American recording artist and entertainer. Born
in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana, she performed acting roles in stage
productions and television shows as a child before signing with Jive Records in 1997. Spears's
first and second studio albums, ...Baby One More Time (1999) and Oops!... I Did It Again (2000),
became international successes, with the former becoming the best-selling album by a teenage solo
artist. Title tracks "...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" broke international
sales records. In 2001, Spears released her self-titled third studio album, Britney, and played
the starring role in the film Crossroads (2002). She assumed creative control of her fourth studio
album, In the Zone (2003), which yielded the worldwide success of the "Toxic" single.

In 2007, Spears's much-publicized personal issues sent her career into hiatus. Her fifth studio
album, Blackout, was released later that year, and spawned hits such as "Gimme More" and "Piece of
Me". Her erratic behavior and hospitalizations continued through the following year, at which point
she was placed under a still on-going conservatorship. Spears's sixth studio album, Circus (2008),
included global chart-topping lead single "Womanizer". Its supporting tour The Circus Starring
Britney Spears was one of the highest-grossing global concert tours in 2009. Later that October,
"3" became Spears's third single to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Her seventh studio
album, Femme Fatale (2011), became her first to yield three top-ten singles in the United States:
"Hold It Against Me", "Till the World Ends" and "I Wanna Go". She also served as a judge during
the second season of the American version of The X Factor. Spears's eponymous eighth studio album
Britney Jean was released in 2013; it spawned the top 15 hit "Work Bitch", however it became the
lowest-selling record of her career. Later that year, Spears began the two-year residency show
Britney: Piece of Me at The AXIS at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

Spears was established as a pop icon and credited with influencing the revival of teen pop during
the late 1990s. She became the 'best-selling teenaged artist of all time' and garnered honorific
titles including the "Princess of Pop". Her work has earned her numerous awards and accolades,
including a Grammy Award, six MTV Video Music Awards including the Lifetime Achievement Award,
nine Billboard Music Awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2009, Billboard ranked
her as the 8th overall Artist of the Decade, and also recognized her as the best-selling female
artist of the first decade of the 21st century, as well as the fifth overall. The Recording
Industry Association of America (RIAA) named Spears as the eighth top-selling female artist in
the United States, with 34 million certified albums. Nielsen SoundScan ranked her the tenth
best-selling digital artist of the country, with more than 28.6 million digital singles as of
January 2012. She has sold over 100 million albums worldwide,[9] making her one of the best-
selling music artists of all time. Rolling Stone recognized her instant success as one of the Top
25 Teen Idol Breakout Moments of all time, while VH1 ranked her eleventh on their "100 Greatest
Women in Music" list in 2012, and Billboard named her the sexiest woman in music. Forbes reported
