Part of her rise came from the exploitation of her sexuality, as the [[Jail Bait|seventeen year old Britney]] flaunted her lolita looks with [[Catholic School Girls Rule|school girl outfits]] and [[Latex Space Suit|tight red leather catsuits]], while [[Contractual Purity|still having]] an [[The Ingenue|image of innocence]]. Her albums and singles sold millions, her videos gained constant rotation on [[MTV]], she made numerous, well-received guest spots on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' as both host and musical guest, she did many iconic VMA performances, she had a hit movie (''[[Crossroads]]'') and received a Grammy nomination (for Best New Artist) and won a [[Grammy Award]] for "Toxic" in 2004, many sold out tours and platinum albums and top ten singles later...

Line 134 ⟶ 137:
* [[Can't Get Away with Nuthin']]: She rarely, if ever, bags out her peers and contemporaries; the few times she has, years ago, people held it against her, for a total of one time talking smack back to the people who constantly slag her off and drag her down. She is [[The Stoic]] of the pop world the rest of the time.
** This even applies to her "Golden" Years where she blocked from the radios for no real reason.
** She is (was) knocked for being a bad role model even though if anything she is an overachiever (then) and a survivor (now).

* [[Career Resurrection]]: She basically came back from the dead.
* [[Catholic School Girls Rule]]: "Baby One More Time". Oh baby baby...
Line 246 ⟶ 249:
* [[Mind Screw]]: In Overprotected (Darkchild Remix) video it opens with a picture of her dancing in the rain in the outfit she's wearing at night (Being commented on by the media), this makes her want to go out and dance in the rain in the outfit she's wearing in the day, the video ends on the same video, of her, in the same outfit, in the rain, dancing, goes straight back to the same news anchor saying the same thing, except she's no longer there...
* [[MTV]]: A major contributor to her success.
* [[Nice Girl]]: One unarguable part of her persona, very very few negative anecdotes, remembers fans after concerts, follows them on twitter, tweets them on occasion, always opens up to them, these days she says she does her albums for her fans and therefore her tours are for her supporters, [[PinkP!nk]], [[Ke$ha]], [[Hilary Duff]], Mary J Blige, All her producers and collaborators, and almost everyone who's ever met her says she is "Sweet".
* [[Nostalgia Filter]]: In regard to her fans. If it is older it is better by default, even if it's just the same thing or she's just a little older then she was back then. It's actually quite confusing...
** These days the overall opinion is that her music has gotten better...''Femme Fatale'' has earned her some of the best reviews of her career. The performances leave something to be desired with many of her fans though, although the general consensus is that she is steadily improving.
Line 340 ⟶ 343:
* [[Three-Way Sex]]: The focus of the song "3."
** [[A Threesome Is Manly]]: The song "3" is about this type of three-way.
* [[Twisted Knee Collapse]]: She takes this position, albeit with head up and a brilliant smile, on the cover of ''...Baby One More Time''.
* [[Twitter]]: She is one of the most followed celebrities on the social site, [https://twitter.com/#!/britneyspears 13 million+ strong].
* [[Unknown Rival]]: Known throughout the pop world for never responding to put downs and just keeping her head down while other people will openly talk trash about her. [[Christina Aguilera]] and [[Lady Gaga]] are particular unknown rivals. She just doesn't care for putting down her peers.
