Today, December 2, 2019, Britney Spears turns 38. With 9 albums to appeal and more than 150 million records sold, the pop princess has marked a generation from the 90s to today. His career began at an early age, when he joined the Mickey Mouse Club with kids "whatever" like Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Ryan Gosling and was the youngest artist to receive her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Between hits, latticex suits, scandals, tormented loves, hospitalizations and rebirths, we want to celebrate Britney by retracing some of the most iconic moments of her career, which have rightfully entered the history of pop culture.
… Baby One More Time
In 1998, Britney's career took off with the release of this single that we continue to hum even after 31 years. Teen-pop ballad to dedicate to the high school crush, we remember her above all for her video. Britney has been able to reinvent the boring school uniform (typical of American high schools as much as the lockers and red glasses of punch) making it sexy and transforming it into a trend for teenagers of the beginning of the millennium.
