Britney Spears

Say what you want about Britney Spears in regards to vocal ability or brain power (we happen to think she's adorbs), but it's pretty well accepted that she's a Southern sweetheart. Which is why when she was asked about the death of legendary Mouseketeer Annette Funicello -- who paved the way for Spears' own start on the 'Mickey Mouse Club' -- it came as a big shock when she giggled.

Britney Spears got herself some karma points this week. The erstwhile 'X Factor' coach plunked down a Benjamin for a complete stranger, solidifying our desire to hug her forever.

During Selena Gomez's appearance at SXSW yesterday (March 11) to promote the upcoming film 'Spring Breakers,' she and her castmates broke into an impromptu performance of '...Baby One More Time.' A performance, we should say, that was buzzworthy enough to get even Britney Spears' attention.

Britney Spears showed off her freshly dyed brunette hair at Elton John's annual Oscars viewing party, looking radiant in a sparkly Michael Cinco gown, de Grisogono jewels, and Saint Laurent shoes.

Everyone worried that Britney Spears would have a meltdown when her fiance Jason Trawick broke up with her, but come on. It's Britney, bitch -- and she's already moved on.

Contrary to what some reports would have us believe, Justin Timberlake did not call his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears a "bitch" during his Pre-Super Bowl concert on Saturday, Feb. 2.

Newly-single lady Britney Spears has had more style misses than hits, and now that she's in her 30s and has two kids, she can no longer chalk up mistakes like micro-minis and too-tight tops on being the pop tart she once was. She was at the height of her Lolita powers years ago, but that phase has faded into the rear view. It's time to dress more appropriately -- and keep the sexy.

A trio of Sin City hotels are currently having a bidding war over who will get Britney Spears and her fleet of babysitters (minus one) to take up musical residence on the Las Vegas strip.

Britney Spears had a song a while ago called 'Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know.' Unfortunately in the case of her split with Jason Trawick, she was, in fact, the last to hear about it ... and it may still have not sunken in just yet.

Britney Spears' recent split from fiance Jason Trawick wasn't wholly unexpected -- and now reports indicate that for months before, they were indeed headed for Splitsville (population: them) because he just grew tired of having such an emotionally delicate flower for a girlfriend.

Britney Spears recently called off her engagement to Jason Trawick -- and now she's given back the ring, too. The rock, which cost roughly $90,000, is a drop in the bucket for BritBrit, who is slated to rake in more than $100 million a year very soon.

Quick, hide the electric razors! It's splitsville in Britville, as pop tart Britney Spears and her fiancé Jason Trawick, who was once her agent, have ended their engagement. The twosome, who began dating in 2009 and got engaged on his 40th birthday in December of 2011, are officially over. But rumors of trouble in paradise have been swirling for weeks.
