In 1999, Spears was named one of People magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People in the World. She was included in the list again in 2003.

Spears and Timberlake dated from 1999 to 2002 and were one of the most popular celebrity teenage couples of their time. Their breakup was reportedly the inspiration behind Timberlake's song "Cry Me a River."

Spears made her movie debut with "Crossroads" (2002), a comedy-drama film focused on the life of three childhood best friends who take a road trip across the country.

The singer claimed to have exchanged e-mails with Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, about setting up a date. She was quoted on "The Frank Skinner Show" as saying: "We exchanged e-mails for a little bit, and he was supposed to come and see me somewhere, but it didn't work out."

She later denied exchanging any such communication.

During a question-and-answer session on Twitter, Spears said she wanted "Black Swan" (2010) star Natalie Portman to play her in a biopic.

During her performance at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards in New York City, New York, U.S., Spears appeared onstage with a giant albino python around her neck.

Britney's Manager Clarifies Comment About Her Possibly 'Never' Performing Again

One more time. Britney Spears‘ longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, clarified a comment he made about the singer possibly “never” performing again. 

In 2002, Forbes named her the world's most powerful celebrity; she was chosen ahead of others such as Tiger Woods, Steven Spielberg and Madonna. The magazine cited Spears' large number of endorsement deals and enormous internet presence as the reason for the title.

In 2003, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She was only 21 years old and became one of the youngest ever to be awarded the honor.

The singer has a successful perfume line with Elizabeth Arden, Inc. She released nine perfumes from 2004 to 2010, which grossed over $2 billion, making her the biggest celebrity perfume endorser ever. In July 2018, Spears released her first gender-neutral perfume - "Prerogative."

In 2001, she became the first female artist in the history of Billboard 200 to have her first three albums debut at No. 1, a record she broke two years later when her fourth also topped the charts.

The singer attributes her iconic dance moves to her gymnastic skills, which she picked up as a child.

According to Harper's Bazaar, Spears' greatest musical inspiration is Whitney Houston (1963-2012).

The singer's first marriage was to childhood friend Jason Alexander in January 2004. It lasted for 55 hours before it was annulled after a court plea that emphasized she "lacked understanding of her actions."

Britney Spears has assured fans that she will be back on stage soon.

She told Harper's Bazaar that kissing at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2003 was Madonna’s idea. She also said that Madonna had taught her "to be true to myself."

The singing star reportedly got a whopping $15 million to do the U.S. version of "The X Factor," which made her the highest-paid reality show judge in 2012.

She became Forbes' top-earning female musician in 2012, pulling in $58 million. She reached the top position on the list thanks to her earnings from touring, endorsements and a fragrance line.

As told to Harper's Bazaar, her orange and purple ensemble (pictured) from the Billboard Awards 2000 is an outfit she's most ashamed of wearing. She said: "I actually thought I looked hot at the time. But, um, I definitely stood out. People were talking about it, but not in a good way."

Reportedly, the pop star and socialite Paris Hilton were great friends in 2006. In November 2017, Hilton tweeted a photos of Spears and herself, captioning it, "11 years ago today, Me & Britney invented he selfie!" Their followers were quick to disagree.
