Today we celebrate the 12th Birthday of the movie ‘Brave New Girl,’ based on Britney and Lynne Spears’ book, ‘A Mother’s Gift.’
The novel, ‘A Mother’s Gift,’ was adapted for the 2004 ABC Family Television movie, ‘Brave New Girl,’ named after one of Britney’s, ‘In The Zone,’ tracks.
Although the plot was drastically changed, Britney and Lynne were still named as the executive producers of the film.
Holly has everything it takes to be a star; the voice, the dream and the dedication, but she lacks the means to break away from her humble Texas upbringing. Then she gets the chance to attend an art and music school on the East coast and her future suddenly looks bright. But the road to stardom is a bumpy one. She must compete with the snobby Angela for the star spot and that’s the least of her troubles. Luckily, Holly has the support from her mother and her roommate Ditz who prove that being a star has nothing to do with fame and everything to do with faith, family, and friends. Before all the number one hits and the adoring fans, all she had was the dream. Inspired by the book A Mother’s Gift by Britney & Lynne Spears…the story of the true meaning of being a star.
It’s spotlight time for a VERY special Britney Army member this time.
Everyone meet Jordan. Jordan is a 26 year lady with Down syndrome. Last March, she was diagnosed with a rare and incurable cerebrovascular disease called Moyamoya Disease. In the past year, Jordan has undergone 2 brain surgeries and has had 7 strokes, following that was later diagnosed with Celiac Disease and sleep apnea. She has this incredible, unwavering strength and courage that has gotten her to where she is today. A few months ago, her mother Corinne, heard about a wish foundation founded by Michael Franti called Do It For The Love. They believe that music can be healing. Corinne sat down with Jordan one night and asked her who she loves to listen to and she replied with, “Spears”… Referring to Britney Spears of course. Corinne found every Britney Spears video that she could on Youtube to which Jordan and Corinne sang and laughed to. Later that night, Corinne filled out the application to have Jordan’s wish granted. A lady from the organization named Joyce worked her magic and got Jordan four tickets to see Piece of Me, including a meet and greet. Now because of Jordan’s risk for strokes Corinne and Jordan had to drive 2200 miles round trip from Montana to Las Vegas!
We at Britney-Galaxy are extremely fortunate and honoured to have been contacted by Jordan’s mother, who has been kind enough to share this extraordinary experience with us. Check out the story below:
First, I want to say how amazingly kind Britney Spears staff was to my daughter. I also want to thank Britney-Galaxy.com for featuring our story! It set the entire tone for the evening. When we arrived at the meet and greet, we were met by a lady and greeted by name. A nice guy named named Ron ( from security, I think), told the group we were with all of the rules for meeting Britney Spears. Jordan was pretty overwhelmed, and worried because she wouldn’t remember the rules. I think Ron saw us talking, because he didn’t make Jordan and I go through the body scan with the wand. (thank you, Ron!!). We were led through the building and out the back, where Ron went over more rules, and how the meet and greet would work. He introduced the group to Fe, this wonderful woman who told us what to expect when meeting Britney Spears. When she finished talking to us, Jordan asked her for a hug. Fe was awesome! She got a big ol Jordan hug, and talked with Jordan for a few minutes. Then she offered to let Jordan sit in this old ratty chair, because Jordan was starting to get tired by this time. Jordan settled into that old chair and felt important, because Fe made her FEEL like she was important. As we waited our turn to go inside and meet Britney, Jordan did what she does best, and befriended another guy (I think also from security), named George. Jordan and George, talked, hugged and posed for a picture (so that she could remember her new friend), before we were ready to go meet Britney Spears. A few of the dancers also stopped and wished Jordan a good time at the concert.
Jordan & I went inside. When it was finally her turn, we went up a ramp onto an area set up to take a picture with Britney Spears. Jordan walked up, saw Britney, and her entire face lit up like it was Christmas. Jordan walked over, and Britney said hi to her and asked her what her name was. Jordan told her her name, and very quietly asked if she could have a hug. Britney Spears was so sweet to Jordan! I told Britney that meeting her and seeing her in concert was Jordan’s wish. (She was unaware of this). Jordan and I posed for the picture with her, and that was that! Jordan walked out of there smiling and so happy!!
I know this is much longer than you were probably anticipating, But I wanted to add in how wonderful and considerate Britney Spears’ staff was to Jordan. Britney Spears was of course the highlight of the night, but her staff made Jordan comfortable enough that she could actually ENJOY the experience, without being overwhelmed.
What an incredible story and thank you for sharing your story with us! We are so happy Jordan’s dream came true! It’s amazing to hear that Britney and her staff truly care about the fans, by making dreams come true.
On this day, April 24th, marks the official Britney Spears day in Kentwood, Louisiana since 1993.
The Spears exhibit, which opened in 2000, includes a re-creation of her childhood bedroom, complete with costumes she wore as a child entertainer and beauty pageant contestant, dolls and stuffed animals, a jacket who wore on the Mickey Mouse Club and a white bedroom set.
There is also a room for her awards, beauty pageant trophies and pink cowboy hat. The walls are covered with Spears posters.

CELEBRITNEY:
Another week another celebrity shows some love to the Queen Of Pop. We start off with none other than Meghan Trainor who just last week had nothing but nice things to say about B. Turns out Meghan is just like us, once we start, we can never stop talking about Brit either.
We’re both ‘90s babies, which is probably why I can’t stop bumping to “Nø.” What were your favorite moments from that era?
My family wasn’t into every award show, but I would make sure we popped it on when Britney was on! She was my queen, and Christina Aguilera too. *NYSNC was huge for our family. My brothers would dance in front of the TV just to be like them, and I would sit there and laugh because I was too embarrassed to dance. I swear I learned how to harmonize because of *NSYNC. I remember singing along with my headphones on and my brothers would be like, “You’re singing it wrong!”
I wrote an article last month about this awesome “Nø” mash-up with Britney Spears’ “Overprotected.” Have you seen it?
Of course, I’ve been bumping it. I love it! I freaked out when I saw it, that’s like my dream. God, I want to meet her so bad and just tell her that she’s my everything.
Meghan, we would give anything to go back to those days! The best time of our lives! It seems like Ariana Grande also shares our flawless taste in music:
Also making headlines this week is the hilarious, ‘Lip Sync Battle.’ Clark Gregg joins the list of celebs who have imitated Brit on the show. We are digging the outfit!!
The Fifth Harmony girls paid Brit a visit too this week! The girls have come so far from their XFactor days, they are almost unrecognizable! With Camila unable to attend, Britney completed the five piece girl band with this slick pic:
Talking about ‘Piece Of Me,’ one of our favorite icons, Demi Moore not only came to see Brit perform, but brought the house down with her sexy dance moves, check this out:
And last but not least, Sky Ferrier mentioned Britney in a recent interview with People magazine:
The then 7-year-old was at Neverland Ranch when Jackson invited her to ‘sing whatever you really want!’ “I was sitting in the movie theatre and I [decided to perform] Britney Spears‘ “Lucky” for him!”
Cringing as she recalls the memory, “I also did the talking part in the beginning – the whole entire thing!”
What did the pop-legend think? “I mean, he liked it! I don’t know – I think he liked it!”
Can you imagine singing a Britney track to Michael Jackson?!? Total freak out!
We are loving these Brit moments celeb world – keep ’em coming!
A DAY IN THE LIFE
Okay, you need to agree that when it comes to social media and letting us into their world, Britney is by far the best! What has Brit been up to this week? Let’s have a look:
Brit popped online for a quick ‘hello’ selfie on Sunday:
Brit’s nostalgic moments included this perfect shoot – Ahoy!:
A pink Monday – which included a ‘fave’ from Lady Gaga on Twitter. We take it on Monday’s pink is now compulsory? The Queens have spoken:

We end off this week with the extremely sad news of Prince’s passing. Prince was an icon and his contribution towards music is second bar none. Your legend will live on forever.
Here's to one of the strongest spirits the world has ever known 🌹 We will miss you forever, Prince. pic.twitter.com/vEGAd0HLxS
Prince, thank you for the music and may you rest in peace. Unfortunately Prince never released his material on Youtube, so we are unable to leave you with Britney’s favorite Prince song, Kiss. We do however have an unreleased Britney version of the track for you to enjoy below:
This makes us super sad, what a mastermind. That is all for this week y’all. We will be listening to Prince and celebrating the legend all week here at HQ’s. See you all next week.
