Britney: Pop Princess

by Nadia Cohen

21 million fans on Facebook, and rising, it's the smile, it's the struggle, Britney is a teen sensation. 15 years in the bright lights of fame, the harsh glare of public adoration and the ever-present danger of sliding into the mocking pens of jealous critics but still she carries on. Somehow she has survived the Michael Jackson effect of early success and now commands the respect of a new generation of teens. Since 2004, she has released 10 fragrances, adding up to 1.5 billion (yes, billion) in perfume sales and the director's cut version of her "Womanizer" video is her most-watched video on YouTube, with 88 million views and counting. Glee, X-factor, Britney is a fabulous, popular and enduring star with everyday qualities that make her fans love her and her music more and more as the years go by.

[Dameon Fowler · Rating 3 out of 5]

There is a little here. The pics are decent and there is bits of interesting facts about this fabulous girl. She started out as a good christian girl than smooched Madonna!? Read here and you'll start to see.

[Dawn · Rating 3 out of 5]

No mention of Crossroads, the movie she STARRED in. Pictures in the binding so cannot be seen. Repetition. Published in 2019 but seemed outdated even for that time. Pictures did not match the storyline. 3 stars mainly because I love Brit.
