Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is a American pop singer,
songwriter, dancer, actress, and author.
She is best known for her studio albums, music videos, and songs such as "...Baby
One More Time", "Oops!...I Did It Again", "I'm a Slave 4 U" and the Grammy
Award-winning "Toxic".
In the early 2000s, Spears's success as a singer led her way to high-profile
advertising deals and endorsements, as well as forays into other forms of media,
including film and reality television.
Her third and fourth albums, Britney and In the Zone, were released during this
era.
In 2004, she married back-up dancer and aspiring rap artist Kevin Federline, and
the following year she gave birth to their first son, Sean Preston.
Their second son, Jayden James, was born in 2006.
Spears filed for divorce from Federline on November 7, 2006 citing
irreconcilable differences.
Spears has sold over 76 million albums worldwide according to TIME magazine.
The RIAA ranks Spears as the eighth best-selling female artist in American music
history, having sold 31 million albums in the U.S.
