at her kindergarten graduation.

She also took part in gymnastics and voice lessons.

She competed in, and won, several state-level competitions and talent shows.

They rejected her the first time she auditioned for The Mickey Mouse Club, because, at age 8, casting director Matt Casella felt she was too young.

Two years later she earned a spot on The Mickey Mouse Club, along with Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, and Keri Russell.

I’m not really the person to ask what it takes to get married, but personally, for me, it’s about loving each other and communicating right, and being respectful and more honest.” ― Britney Spears

What did you learn from these Britney Spears quotes?

Britney shaved her head, started saying some weird things, and the world kind of watched like the looky-loos who crane their necks to watch a car wreck.

We couldn’t seem to help ourselves, as the ‘Princess of Pop’ seemed to unravel in the most public way.

However, in hindsight, what Britney needed was some love and support as she was undergoing deeply personal challenges with little privacy and empathy.

She witnessed several physical fights between her parents when she was a child and was understandably traumatized.

She was suffering from anxiety and mental health issues exacerbated by the pressure of fame.

They prescribed her medicine, but she didn’t take it as often as she needed to.

She also underwent a public breakup and subsequent divorce from Kevin Federline.

She also lost custody of her kids because of her erratic behavior and was involuntarily placed under a conservatorship.

Life hasn’t been easy for Britney since, as she continues to battle the legal system and get herself removed from the conservatorship, which is controlled by her father.

This sparked a Free Britney movement on social media, with fans worried once again about her health.

One thing that fans haven’t had to worry about is Britney’s musical talents, as she has had some successful gigs, including a Las Vegas residency, and records in the years since.

Hopefully, Britney will come out of this ok and reclaim her life on her terms.
