Retell

After Britney had left MMC, she went into a motionless part of life, where she lived as a normal teenager. In this period of inactiveness, she had her first actual boyfriend, responding to the name of Reg Jones. Britney and Reg had a great relation, until Britney got called back to New York for Jive (Zomba) Records. She did a couple auditions, and it was decided that Britney will have one album to see if her talent was worth to publish or not. The recording of her songs took place in Stockholm, Sweden. There, she recoded one of her most famous songs: "...Baby One More Time".

When she came back to New York, Jive Records decided to start on the music video for "...Baby One More Time". The video shows the story of a teenage girl daydreaming about guys in a classroom, when her daydream turns into singing and dancing. Britney's boyfriend, Reg, also had a part in the video, until he and Britney broke up.

After the publishing of the video, Britney was part of the opening of the teenage boy group 'N Sync's tour. In 'N Sync, the boy who caught Britney's attention was Justin Timberlake, who still had a crush on Britney. During the tour, Britney and Justin got closer  and closer together, almost to say they were going out together.

Not long after the tour ended, the album ''...Baby One More Time'' was released, and both the album and the single released not long before were nominated platinum and were number one on the Billboard Charts.

As Britney enters further and further into stardom, critiques started to comment on her songs. They thought that Britney's songs already had a sexual meaning. What was going to be bad publicity for Britney ended up being noting, as Britney explains the meaning of her songs.

Later, as Britney was rehearsing for her second music video for the song ''Sometimes'', she had a major knee injury, keeping her from dancing for a whole month. When she came back, it showed that she had a breast augmentation, even though she denied it.

After all those incidents, the Jive Records president was sure that Britney was capable of combining the best elements of Madonna, Whitney Houston and Celine Dion.

Relate

At that point, nothing relates me to Britney. I never got a boyfriend, even though I try, and I'm really far from being famous and reclaimed from everyone. I also never got any surgery on any parts of my body for any reason. The more Britney grows, the less elements we have in common.

Reflect

I find it funny how being a celebrity seems easy, when it's one of the hardest thing ever. Britney had the support of her family and her boyfriend, but stardom was still harsh for her. Maby it was her mother who put all the pressure on her, just to be capable of living more easilly, but all the efforts put in was worthy of a try.
