Britney's Tragic Death

Britney Spears died Sunday night when the hair dryer she was using fell into a sink full with water. She was 27. 

Spears death comes after years of controversial behavior.  She was once known as an innocent young girl who did no wrong.  Many kids considered her a role model. Later in her career she started raising eyebrows by kissing Madonna, wearing see through clothes and not putting her baby in a car seat. 

 Spears first rose to fame in the 1980s when she starred in “The Mickey Mouse Club.”  Future stars Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera were in the show, too. Timberlake soon became the star’s long time boyfriend. Spears promised to save her virginity for him until they married. After “ The Mickey Mouse Club” was cancelled Spears decided to head back home to Louisiana were she expected to return into show business and transition to a music career.

In 1998 Spears dropped her first album, “…  Baby One More Time.”  The album scored Spears of some of her first hit songs, as well as her first big controversy.

“I wore a Catholic School girl outfit in the video for Hit Me Baby, and I sexed it up a bit, big deal,” Spears said. “If you’ve got the body, then you have it all.”

Following Spear’s first album came “Oops I Did It Again” in 2000. “Oops I Did It Again” was an even bigger hit than “…Baby One More Time.  In 2002, Spears was featured in a movie called “Crossroads.” That same years Forbes magazine named Spears the most powerful celebrity in the world.

In 2003, at the MTV’s Music Awards Spears found herself in trouble once again after kissing Madonna during their performance of “Like A Virgin.” Spears parents were oddly okay with their daughter kissing Madonna.

“ My daughter is crazy, but that was hot.” Spear’s mother said.  “Britney just loves taking risks as well as opening up to the greatness of life.”

A year later on October 6, 2004 Spears married Kevin Federline who was her former back up dancer. The marriage eventually didn’t last so they got a divorce. Spears and Federline were both fighting for custody over both of there children.

“Build upon your failures, so the higher that you go you won’t see them no more.
