 Dance-pop singer Britney Spears
was born in Kentwood, LA in 1982; after honing her chops
in local dance showcases and church choirs, at age eight
she auditioned for a role on the Disney Channel's Mickey
Mouse Club show, and although the series' producers
deemed her too young for the job they were sufficiently
impressed with the girl's talent to assist her in gaining
entry to New York's Off-Broadway Dance Center and the
Professional Performing Arts School. After a series of
television commercials and stage appearances, at 11
Spears finally joined The Mickey Mouse Club, where she
remained for two seasons; continuing on as a solo artist,
she signed to Jive Records and in early 1999 issued her
debut LP ..Baby One More Time. Full
