Britney Spears, the iconic music artist, turned 40 today. Britney has earned, achieved, and lost a lot in her 40 years of life, the most notable of which being recovering her independence from her father’s conservatorship and regaining control of her finances.
The singer, who shot to fame as a teenager with her breakthrough single ‘…Baby One More Time,’ has been out of the spotlight for a long time, but her absence hasn’t made people forget about her.
Her tremendous musical career has yielded six number-one albums on the Billboard 200 and four number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
Britney, who turned 40 this year, has a lot to be happy about after winning her court battle to end her 13-year conservatorship. The Business Standard has chosen five of her songs that have transformed pop music over the years to honor her illustrious legacy.
