#16 - Britney Spears

That's right. The pop princess who we all fell in love with after bursting onto the scene in 1999 with "Baby, One More Time" hit a bit of a roadblock from 2006-2007. Well, I think roadblock is a bit of an understatement. Maybe an F3 Freeway traffic jam after some idiot's crashed his car and has caused traffic to back 60km up the freeway, increasing the drive to work from 55 minutes to around about 4 hours. Oooops, tangent.

Anyway, after the trials and tribulations of 2006 and 2007, Britney took the opportunity in 2008 to get her life back on track. The results, some would say, were impressive. From the point where a slightly frumpy Britney dancing at the music awards, we saw a new Britney spring into the spotlight. 5 MTV music awards (3 US and 2 EURO) for Piece of Me and new Album "Blackout" gave Britters a taste of the success she's longed to regain, after a torrid period of her life in which she found herself marrying, and carrying the children of, one of the world's biggest douchebags. No, I don't mean Sol Trujillo.

Britney's life was heading down the right path when she finally discarded K-Fed, but still had some life lessons to learn. While it wasn't all easy for Britters, the odd meltdown and drug indulgence included, she has managed to learn an important lesson and has finally started to rebuild the respect she needs within the business.

Unfortunately though, the Spears family does have another battle on their hands. Not being smart enough to learn from her sister's mistakes, Jamie Lynn Spears managed to get herself knocked up at 16, and popped out her first child in 2008 too. The first of many, no doubt.

But this isn't about Jamie Lynn, this is about Britney, and her ability to prove to everyone that despite being trailer park trash from Louisiana, marrying a dirty hat backward wearing douchebag from Fresno, popping out two kids from said douchebag's seed and going completely off the rails, you can rebuild and make yourself a star.

Love ya Britters ;-)

P.S. I'd probably still tap it.
