Britney Spears
She's the most contreversial yet most mysterious celebrity in the world. she emits an aura of secrecy yet she's still one of the most powerful artist in the world. her music has changed the face of pop music, forever and still doing it after 10 years. considered as a train wreck for a lot of people, her success is still unmatched by her pop rivals.
