Britney Spears: 'Born To Make You Happy Describes Myself The Best' | Interview 2000 | TMF

Britney Jean Spears, born on December 2, 1981, is an influential American singer known as the "Princess of Pop." She played a pivotal role in the resurgence of teen pop in the late 1990s and early 2000s. With a staggering 150 million records sold globally, including over 70 million in the United States, Spears stands as one of the top-selling music artists worldwide. Her achievements include a Grammy Award, 15 Guinness World Records, six MTV Video Music Awards, and more.
Having inked a deal with Jive Records at just fifteen, Spears' initial two albums, "...Baby One More Time" (1999) and "Oops!... I Did It Again" (2000), achieved remarkable success, establishing her as the best-selling teenage artist ever. The latter set a record with 1.3 million copies sold in its first week. Subsequently, her albums "Britney" (2001) and "In the Zone" (2003) marked a shift towards a more mature and provocative style.
In 2007, Spears took on the role of executive producer for her acclaimed fifth album, "Blackout." Despite its brilliance, personal challenges led to limited promotion. This period saw her placed under conservatorship.
Spears rebounded with chart-toppers "Circus" (2008) and "Femme Fatale" (2011), the latter yielding her most successful singles era. Notably, she became the second artist in Billboard Hot 100 history, after Mariah Carey, to debut at number one with two or more songs.
A four-year concert residency in Las Vegas, "Britney: Piece of Me," paved the way for her subsequent albums "Britney Jean" (2013) and "Glory" (2016). In 2019, her conservatorship battle gained public attention, leading to the #FreeBritney movement. Finally, in 2021, the conservatorship was terminated after Spears bravely spoke out about mistreatment.

This is the Britney that I grew up with. It's heartbreaking how her family stomped her into the ground.

خانم زیبا ‌کدام ‌خواننده ای در موسیقی هالیوودی آمریکا هست که اجازه ندارد خودش لباس هاشو انتخاب کند ‌ فقط میخوام بدانم مالکان زنازاده بااین لوسیفر کاکا سیاه برزنگی چه کینه شتری از بریتنی اسپیرز داشتند ‌حتی پدرسگش هم جزوشان بوده ‌این همه ‌فشارروحی روانی ‌‌ قرص های روانی لیتیوم و سایر مواد های سمی ‌ که ‌بهش خوراندند و بار روانی استرس های ‌ مختلف ‌ مگر بریتنی اسپیرز چه کار کرده بود ‌گناهش غیر این که از زیبایی خدادادی و‌صدای زیبای منحصر بفردش و نبوغش در رقص آیا ‌ پدر مادر ‌لوسیفر یا پدرسگشو قطعه قطعه کرده بود ‌که میخواستند ازش ‌ انتقام بگیرند

[@tormentors]

New generations won't get how important Britney was for us 2000's teenagers back in the day

[@Dark_Schadow69]

Very true my big sisters are such a fan of britney❤.

[@kittytonic87]

She was so sweet and humble and a good listener and I can tell when someone ask an inappropriate question or a stupid question she'll look at them in shock.

[@saeedfarzaneh4446]

کدام احمقی ‌ سوال ناجور میپرسد ‌ از دشمنان بحساب میاد یا از حسودان به بریتنی اسپیرز

[@nomadichomebody4230]

She was so sweet and professional, especially for a teenager. They ask the dumbest questions!

[@ramonc1942]

What a little sweetheart. We should have been kinder to her.

[@ryanprescott1636]

What did you do that wasnt kind?

She so beautiful then, now and forever. Love her sweet and soft voice. Her voice today still sounds the same sweet and soft just like when she was younger. I love Britney Spears ❤

[@aureliajoypae4596]

I became a BritneySpears fan with "Born to make you happy". Since Day 1 till now . I love you Brit 💋🌹

[@skylabvictory4092]

At young age and very new to music industry but she answer the question professionaly..she is so sweet..Poland and Brazil,Mexico are very supportive to her

[@westbrit88]

Her innocence and humbleness in this era, but then her family ruined everything, but still she stood back up and stayed strong. Such an inspiration, even how many times she were being attacked by haters that believed in lies spread by the lame media, we know how amazing she is not just an artist but as a human being. We will always support you queen! #BritneyArmy 💪🏼💙

[@laracroftvideos]

Awww she was so proud of Dear Diary 😭 Britney has always wanted to be more involved in her music and the few times she made it possible are actually what gave us some of her best music-In the Zone, Blackout, and Glory. You can always tell her good eras apart from the bad ones by how much she enjoyed herself. Femme Fatale and Britney Jean were just her going through the motions on autopilot, so much so that she didn’t even feel like those albums were worth a mention in her book.

[@sarahkrystal6989]

What a difference. The eye contact is odd though. Seems she was really concentrated on the questions.

[@abe39]

I think it’s because she’s trying to focus on the interviewer’s accent since English is not her native language.

[@maryanne2025]

@@abe39?

[@abe39]

@@maryanne2025 you know when you’re trying to hear something better and you squint your eyes? Check out 11:40 when she moved her head forward. She probably had to concentrate on the interviewer’s accent that’s why her eye contact is so focused.

[@amandabritney8849]

Unparallel gorgeousness inside out.

[@MissCleo]

She's so gorgeous 😍 it's hypnotizing ❤

[@Christoph52]

God these questions, just shaking my head. She had such grace in answering them though

[@danjguy1873]

Yasss!! Finally some britney 😍

[@juandiegohenaozuluaga4554]

She is so beautiful. My Queen. ❤🧡💛

She was happy free, and just and just like that …💔❤️‍🩹

Ughh lorddd, these interviews are BRUTALL. . . .

[@wesselpricken6342]

The best song on Baby One More Time

[@yannhollister9091]

she always seemed so fragile to me.. so sad how it all turned out

[@MS-ky4eg]

Wow! She is so beautiful!😊❤️

[@kate_breez]

That's the Britney I loved at my teens😢

[@viktoryfoever]

She looks so stunning here❤

[@jemelphilippe]

Her family really took away the joy and the fire that was in her. She really is enjoying talking to the press and now she doesn't want to do it.

[@Orangejacket665]

When she’s performing and saying “whoo” 😂❤

[@sugarx6687]

She was so sweet...now she is ruined ...poor girl , this makes me sad

[@beeticket]

The saddest part is that she’s probably still this soft and fragile person deep down - she’s just surrounded by steel walls now because life was so cruel to her.

[@PST248]

So sweet❤

[@saintperth3978]

Can SONY and RCA release BORN TO MAKE U HAPPY AND DON'T LET ME BE THE LAST in the U.S as a single so that we can make these classic songs on the charts, also OVERPROTECTED ( remix ) on her channel.
