Britney Spears, born on December 2, 1981, in Mississippi, United States, to parents Jamie and Lynn Spears, is widely recognized as the Queen of Pop. She began her career in the late 1990s as a child actor in television series. Her first two studio albums, ...Baby One More Time (1999) and Oops!... I Did It Again (2000), propelled her to fame. In 2007, she released the album Blackout, followed by Circus (2008) and Femme Fatale (2011), which featured successful singles on the U.S. charts.

Spears has sold over 150 million records worldwide, including over 70 million in the United States, making her one of the best-selling music artists globally. She has six number-one albums on the Billboard 200 chart. In 2021, after a 13-year conservatorship, she was legally freed. She married Sam Asghari in an intimate ceremony and made a musical comeback with the successful duet Hold Me Closer alongside Elton John in 2022.

In 2023, Spears released her memoir, The Woman in Me, which became a New York Times bestseller in its first week. The memoir details her rise to fame, personal struggles, and experiences under the conservatorship.

In 2024, she settled a legal dispute with her father, Jamie Spears, agreeing to pay $2.12 million in outstanding legal fees related to the conservatorship. As of February 2025, Spears reunited with her former lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, for a casual lunch, though he no longer represents her in legal matters.

Spears' accolades include a Grammy Award, 15 Guinness World Records, six MTV Video Music Awards, and seven Billboard Music Awards.
