britny Jean Spears

Nacimiento: 2 de diciembre de 1981Lugar: Kentwood, Louisiana, EE.UU. Apodo: BritAltura: 5,5 piesNombre del padre: Jamie SpearsNombre de la madre: Lynne Spears
Cantante de música dance y pop nació en Kentwood, Louisiana en 1981. Luego de afinar sus dotes artísticas en concursos de baile locales y coros de la iglesia, a los ocho años hizo una prueba para un papel en el show del Club de Mickey Mouse de la cadena Disney y aunque los productores de la serie la consideraron demasiado joven para el puesto estuvieron lo suficientemente impresionados con su talento como para ayudarla a entrar al Off-Broadway Dance Center de Nueva York y al Professional Performing Arts School. Después de una serie de comerciales de televisión y actuaciones sobre tablas, Spears finalmente se incorporó al Club de Mickey Mouse a los 11 años, donde permaneció por dos temporadas. Luego como solista, firmó con Jive Records y a principios de 1999 sacó su primer LP "Baby One More Time...Desde entonces es un imagen muy común en comerciales, espectáculos, comedias y en programas de televisión.Britney disfruta de ser adolescente. Le encantan los colores estridentes e ir de compras por los centros comerciales desde el amanecer hasta el anochecer. Igualmente le fascinan las novelitas rosa y los largos días en la playa.Es fanática de la música pop (sus favoritos incluyen a Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey y Whitney Houston). Su vida es el canto. Ha estado cantando y actuando por todo el mundo ante enormes públicos de admiradores muy jóvenes y no tan jóvenes.Ha entregado su música hasta ahora en tres discos, “Baby One More Time...”, “Oops... I did it again” y "Britney", para el placer de todos sus fanáticos. Ella es sólo una adolescente y ya se ha convertido en una superestrella conocida en todos los rincones del planeta


El próximo 17 de Mayo se estrena en USA el primer episodio de una serie de seis sobre la vida en pareja de la popular cantante Britney Spears y su marido Kevin.
El programa con contenidos de realidad simulada se compondrá de exclusivos vídeos caseros privados, grabados por la famosa pareja durante su noviazgo, su posterior compromiso matrimonial y la boda.
La serie, que promete hacer furor entre los seguidores de Britney Spears, tiene ya un pequeño avance en la web de la productora de la serie televisiva, www.upn.com
La estrella estadounidenses de la música pop, Britney Spears, no pudo realizar la gira 'Onyx Hotel' debido a que sufrió una lesión en su rodilla sufrida durante la grabación de un video de 'Outrageous', el pasado 4 de junio, a raíz de la cual debió ser operada. La gira debía llevar a la cantante a través de Estados Unidos, Canadá y Europa. La demanda, presentada la semana pasada, exige que las compañías de seguros cumplan con sus compromisos. La cantante había contratado una serie de seguros antes de comenzar la gira, pagando primas por cerca de 1,3 millones de dólares. Las compañías de seguros (siete británicas y una francesa) rechazaron su demanda de cerca de 9, 8 millones de dólares, arguyendo que la artista les había ocultado una lesión de rodilla anterior. La demanda se presentó después de que las compañías aseguradoras se negaran a pagar compensaciones por beneficios no realizados derivados de la gira cancelada. En la demanda fue presentada la semana pasada ante un tribunal de Manhattan. Spears afirma que el hecho de que haya omitido mencionar una anterior operación "menor" de rodilla realizada en 1999 sólo fue un "inocente olvido" sin ninguna relación con su última intervención quirúrgica.

Carta por MONOL77:Tiempo atrás vivía Rabioso y sin sentido mi vida escuchando Otras Canciones pero una Dulce Navidad entre el 89 y el 92 te conocí ese fue Un Día Perfecto, me cambiaste la vida al hacerme comprender que Todo Esta al Revés y que hay muchos Ángeles Caídos como para ser uno mas; eso ahora lo escucho en mi Radio Insomnio y al fin me di cuenta de que El cielo puede esperar.
Estoy enfermo por vos. Amen.
