Britney Spears: Breaking Free (2021)

The Princess of Pop is still waiting for her fairytale ending. It has been a roller coaster ride for Britney Jean Spears ever since her second audition for The Mickey Mouse Club made her a household name at age eleven. The musical icon from Kentwood, Louisiana has given new definition to southern belle. A whirlwind of soap opera headlines would surround her including a mental health crisis, substance abuse, divorce, and a child custody case. Almost four decades later, she is on the brink of winning a legal battle with her father that would end a conservatorship and at long last give her control of her life. The show would go on despite the controversy. Nine chart-topping albums starting with "Baby, One More Time" in 1999, 10 concert tours, a Vegas residency from 2013-2017, 6 MTV Music Awards, 7 Billboard Music Awards, and 1 Grammy. 100 million records sold to a forgiving public. Along the way there were sponsorships for shoes, clothing, soda and 20 perfumes. Yet, album titles like "Blackout", "Circus", and "Glory" continue to reflect the ups and downs of what may prove to be the world's longest roller coaster ride.
