    Spears first auditioned for Disney’s The All-New Mickey Mouse Club (the then-newest iteration of The Mickey Mouse Club) at age 8, but producers told her she was too young for the show. Her second tryout was successful, and she joinedJustin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Ryan Gosling, and a few other budding entertainers as Disney’s new class of Mo...

    Before she embarked on a solo career, Spears was briefly the frontwoman for a girl band called Innosense, which was created by Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC manager Lou Pearlman. The group—which also included Awkward star Nikki DeLoach—was originally meant to be America’s answer to the Spice Girls, but Spears left before the project got off the ground...
