Spears is hard-working, beautiful, and talented. While this difficult period in her life continued, she almost got a role as Daisy Duke in the – many think entirely unnecessary – 2005 remake of “The Dukes of Hazzard.”
Ultimately, another southern blonde, Jessica Simpson, got the role. Simpson may have had an idiotic question when she asked, “Is tuna chicken or fish?” but Britney had her own brain fart earlier in her career: “The cool thing about being famous is traveling. I have always wanted to travel across seas. Like, to Canada, and stuff.”
On the Little Screen
Less than a year into their marriage, Spears and Federline starred in a five-episode reality show called "Britney & Kevin: Chaotic." Britney had lots of footage of her daily life before her injury and her preparations for her "In the Zone" tour while she was dating and engaged to Kevin.
This footage formed the show's basis, and more footage was added from after they were married. For the entire run of the show, it drew huge viewer numbers, but for pretty much all the wrong reasons.
You Both Want to Watch and Don't
"Britney & Kevin: Chaotic" was explicit. Very explicit. The couple went into ridiculous detail about their bedroom activities and even made out on-camera. Big fans of the star couldn't stop watching, but people tuning in on a whim, as well as TV reviewers, thought the opposite.
Phrases such as “horrifying train wreck” and “an insult to common sense and decency” appeared in reviews of the show. Perhaps due to embarrassment, the couple has stayed mum about their reaction to the show until 2013. Britney finally revealed her thoughts on the show: “The worst thing I've ever done in my career.”
A Dangerous Relationship
The toxic relationship between Britney and Federline continued. Numerous times on their reality show gave us a picture of Britney, grinding her teeth and rubbing her hurting jaw. The cause of her erratic behavior is now obvious, but at the time, viewers could do nothing other than feeling worried.
Spears had married the kind of guy no one wants to see with their daughter. Federline was a high school dropout, a failed rapper, and a father of six children with three different women. And he suddenly had more on the way.
Life Goal Achieved
One thing Spears had always been adamant about is wanting was a family of her own. She made that clear even back when she was dating Timberlake. In October of 2004, she announced she had taken a break from her career to start being a mom. A few months later, she announced she was pregnant with her first child.
She had her first son, Sean Preston, in September of 2005. A few months into 2006, she was pregnant again, and in October, she gave birth to her second son – with Federline, again – Jayden James. It seems like all of her dreams had come true.
