Tell me a little bit about growing up, Little Brittany when you were growing up, because you were born in Louisiana, weren't you?
33
Yes.
34
What was home life like for you when you were young?
35
Well, I was a country girl, and I was very into ball.
36
I was never a cheerleader or anything like that.
37
I was a tomboy.
38
So, I was just a mama's girl.
39
I loved food.
40
My dad owns a restaurant.
41
He was into a construction building.
42
And just normal.
43
Just a normal southern...yeah.
44
Where do you live now?
45
Do you live in Los Angeles or do you live in Las Vegas?
46
Because you have the big show going on in Vegas.
47
I have two homes.
48
I have one in Las Vegas and one in LA.
49
And the Las Vegas show has been a huge success for you, hasn't it?
50
Yes, it has.
51
How much time of the year do you spend in Vegas?
52
Probably...60% of the time.
53
And the show itself, it must be pretty exhausting, I guess every night
54
or nearly every night it's three nights a week oh that's
55
easy that's easy okay well you could you could get another job then to make ends meet uh
56
but is it a party town
57
when you're there do you go out much do you have fun like that
58
or are you aware of the partying that's going on around
59
i am aware of the party that's going on a lot
60
of the people um are very intoxicated yes during the shows
61
and the food is great when i've been to see shows in vegas uh often it seems to be with the audience, they are enjoying the performance,
62
but you're right, they've already had a couple of what we would call sharpeners.
63
Yes.
64
Before the show.
65
Have you encountered that?
66
Have you had an audience sometimes?
67
I was actually, I got contact high.
68
I haven't smoked weed since I was like 17 years old.
69
And all of a sudden, towards the end of the show, like, I mean, it was so strong, I couldn't function.
70
Because I got just the contact of it, I was like, oh my goodness.
71
So I was like, I had to leave.
72
I had to go.
73
How can you leave your own show though?
74
What happens if you've left?
75
I kind of just, I say I can't do it anymore.
76
Well maybe they were so high, they didn't notice.
77
They didn't notice.
78
So you stay near the show I guess?
79
You're not in the same building as the show, but you stay pretty nearby?
80
Yes.
81
But you're not kept awake by the partying, are you?
82
You don't have carousing going on near you?
83
I do.
84
You do?
85
Yes.
86
There's parties all around.
87
Wow.
88
So how do you, what do you do?
89
Do you go and join in, or do you blank it out?
90
I just don't go in there.
91
They're private parties.
92
I suspect if you wanted to go in, they'd probably let you in.
93
I'd have to see if...
94
There's a lot of drugs involved.
95
Oh, OK.
96
What, to get you into a party?
97
No!
98
No, a lot of drugs involved.
99
Oh, inside, you don't want to go near that.
100
Of course not, you're Britney.
101
You wouldn't go near that.
102
You know, I was talking about you growing up in Louisiana.
103
How old were you when you first appeared in the Mickey Mouse Club?
104
You were just a kid still, weren't you?
105
I was 12.
106
12 years old.
107
But you'd auditioned for it before, hadn't you?
108
Yes.
109
I was eight.
110
So you were eight and you didn't get the part.
111
Now how did you, how did the eight year old deal with that?
112
Because that's a pretty big blow to get, isn't it?
113
Yes.
114
Well actually I was with a girlfriend and we all went as a pack of six girls together.
115
And we went and we didn't make it.
116
But it was just really fun because it was the impact of all the kids there, the energy and it was really cool.
117
Well, incredible training ground, I would have thought, to go on to be a performer.
118
Because so many, you know, the kind of year you were there, you had incredible people.
119
I was amazed.
120
I hadn't realised Ryan Gosling was one of the Disney kids as well.
121
And of course, Justin was there, Christian Aguilera, I mean, just huge.
122
I'm hoping it was fun as well as it being fun to watch.
123
Oh, it was probably one of the funnest times of my life.
124
We all lived in the same community, and we had a schedule every day, and it was just, it was fun.
125
It was a lot of fun.
126
So, one question, you know, I've always wanted to ask you this, is you've been in the public eye since you were 12?
127
Yes.
128
Because that was a huge show, wasn't it?
129
Do you ever fantasise, do you ever wonder what life would be like if you hadn't been?
130
Do you have a kind of...
131
I do.
132
I kind of go like I have this thing where I go into denial a little bit
133
and I'll put a hat on and I just pretend like I'm like everybody else
134
and I'll go out and it really usually works because no one pays you any attention.
135
So sort of a disguise?
136
It's like a disguise, yeah.
137
And so what do you do when you're going like that?
138
What sort of things do you want to do?
139
I'll just take my dog for a walk or I'll go shopping or I'll do just like normal stuff.
140
And when you have to become Britney again, does that feel weird?
141
Well, it's like, well I'm used to my show.
142
It's like a character change.
143
It's kind of like I'm a performer.
144
So I know how to mentally adjust my head to go there in character.
145
It's not me It's not who I am at all, but it's like it's part of what I do.
146
So what would the real Brittany be like then?
147
Honestly, I'm kind of boring.
148
I'm really boring.
149
Yeah, I'm boring.
150
I Love movies.
151
I love hot I know it sounds so boring, but I'm not like this like you know Crazy like go out girl What's a great night for you then?
152
What's a great night?
153
What's a really lovely at night when you're not working a night well spent a movie?
154
What I'm done by your girl your wife.
155
Oh, yeah, all my oh my girlfriend.
156
They both make movies I love the beginning because it plays the rock song yeah,
157
and it's like I'm a nerd.
158
I'm sorry I'm just like yeah, it's so cool.
159
Um That's my favorite movie.
160
Oh, thank you
161
And then what else you do you like to order food
162
in you like to cook do you cook I cook I can
163
and I like I like a lot of different rices I like rice and Jambalaya
164
She said she was boring what did you expect?
165
I think that's an exclusive we've got out of her right here.
166
I Just hope you don't regret saying that okay.
167
It's gonna be head like more Brittany's rice addiction Four bags a day Desperate for Uncle Ben Okay
168
We had a brief chat before the show I know you
169
have two young men in your life your sons of course
170
And they're twelve eleven now and they're rockin' eleven ten and eleven
171
And I saw that you threw a Pokemon party for them.
172
Yes recently so they're just into the the things
173
that regular kids their age are into Yes now one of them he's sort of like Becoming a DJ is that right?
174
Yeah his father is a DJ and he's actually gonna give his dad a run for his money Wow, he's a very very good.
175
He's he actually when I recorded my record I would bring it home
176
and let him listen to a lot of the songs he was like mom This isn't really good.
177
He would tell me like straight up and I was like really okay
178
But I really do respect his his ear
179
because he knows you know like he has the generation the young generation Completely knows
180
and so but at night that we do have like little clubs
181
and parties at the house And he have our laser lights going on
182
and he like he plays yeah I mentioned earlier when you're single, is it easy for you to meet people?
183
I mean, or is it kind of tricky because of who you are and because you have to be wary, I suppose, of people?
184
It's a little tricky.
185
I have a friend at home and he randomly sets me up with people every now and then on dates.
186
And it's just awkward because there's so many times that you meet people and it's just like too awkward.
187
Why, because they have an idea of you that you're not or vice versa?
188
Well, I will say there's been two days that have been kind of cool.
189
Other than that, it's just too much.
190
I went with this one guy and he looked like a lizard.
191
Like, I was so scared.
192
I keep saying this and I turned on my...
193
I was like, oh my God!
194
I was like, holy shit, he looks just like a lizard.
195
And I had to go.
196
It was really bad.
197
So you just left?
198
Wow.
199
Immediately.
200
Wow.
201
No one can judge you for that.
202
But I need to ask, which one of your friends set you up with the lizard man?
203
I know, I was so mad at him, I called him, I was very angry.
204
Did you say he's a lizard?
205
Yes, and he said, oh my God, his picture's, I guess it's just he doesn't look that in the picture.
206
So who are you looking for?
207
What are you looking for?
208
I guess certain qualities?
209
Um, I like someone that's just nice.
210
Overall, just a nice guy is really...
211
..is, um, groundbreaking, yeah, in this world That sounds pretty achievable to me,
212
but I don't know but some people seem to think maybe there aren't that a lot of men are about games
213
It's just the mind game with guys, you know the calling back and it's just too much.
214
It's just silly So they're not wanting you to think they're too keen Yeah, it's just silly.
215
But I would have thought, I don't know if you know this, but you're Britney Spears and I would have thought they would be keen.
216
Aw, no. But maybe they're thinking,
217
OK, she's famous and she will think I'm crazy if I keep calling her, pestering her.
218
Actually, I'm not looking for men right now.
219
I'm really happy with myself.
220
Ah, so what are you looking for?
221
There's absolutely no way you should define yourself by a relationship.
222
I'm not looking for anything.
223
I'm fine with the way I am.
224
And you seem in a really good place right now.
225
Would that be a safe thing to say?
226
Yes, sir.
227
OK, so you're pretty happy, pretty...
228
That's good tonight.
229
LAUGHTER Now, Britney said she was up to have some fun this evening. And so...
230
And of course, she's going to perform for us at the end of the night, which is exciting.
231
LAUGHTER So we thought we would play a game of Never Have I Ever, and we asked the audience when you came in whether you would write some questions down.
232
Did you write some questions down for us?
233
Yeah!
234
So I've got this for you.
235
This is...
236
You hold that sign up if you have done something.
237
Sorry.
238
So I have some questions for the audience here.
239
Never have I ever worn the same underwear two days in a row.
240
LAUGHTER LAUGHTER No?
241
Wow.
242
I mean, if this had said five days, it would be the same answer for me.
243
That's going to be good, but that's nice.
244
OK, let's do another one.
245
Here we go.
246
Never have I ever re-gifted something that was given to me as a gift.
247
All the time.
248
Yeah.
249
Yeah.
250
Oh, this one's got a name, it's from Daniel, and you already did...
251
Never have I ever made love listening to one of my own records.
252
LAUGHTER Can you play me?
253
OK, now I want...
254
Are you being totally honest here?
255
I want you to be totally honest.
256
This is going to be the last one.
257
I want you to be 100% honest here.
258
Never have I ever farted while performing performing
259
let me talk about some of the the britney looks over the years
260
when you look back on them how do you feel about
261
the way you looked in those videos the outfits you wore let's start with
262
that one i just actually wore thighs today for the first time in 10 years
263
so and the hair do you ever do your hair like
264
that no no never not even for special occasions no the
265
next one now this was oops i did it again uh
266
and this was the i believe kevin baker owns that suit now
267
but um was that uncomfortable to filming yes it was very
268
Because I was so hot on the inside
269
so we just kept on having to put powder in there
270
so I could it wouldn't stick Is that someone's job doing that?
271
Yes You still have that no you have any of your old outfits?
272
It's in the theater in Vegas So they have on display and display yes, that's cool.
273
Oh here you go That's not actually an outfit those are just hand diamonds painted on me well glued on me Wow.
274
But not glued directly, were they glued on your body or on a bodysuit?
275
Glued on my body.
276
On the skin?
277
Yes.
278
How do you get them off afterwards?
279
I don't remember what I did.
280
You might still have some on your nail.
281
LAUGHTER When you sit down, is there ever a sharp pain in your butt?
282
Because you might still...
283
I cough up diamonds sometimes.
284
LAUGHTER OK, that's a great look, though.
285
I mean, that's a bold look.
286
Thank you.
287
And so, what about other performers?
288
Do you ever look at...
289
I mean, do you have to avoid being too similar?
290
Say you see something that Rihanna's wearing or someone else, do you think, I can't go there because she's got that market?
291
Actually, they do open your mind a little bit more.
292
I mean, like Rihanna, she performed at the VMAs, and she was like...
293
It was so odd.
294
She was in Baby Pink, and, like, you wouldn't...
295
Cos she's so rock and roll, you'd never think to beat her to be in Baby Pink, but it was so random for her, but it was fucking dope.
296
Yeah, well done.
297
You've got to love Wee Wee.
298
Yeah, I love her.
299
The VMAs, the VMAs was...
300
You appeared at the VMAs with the snake that time, didn't you?
301
Yes.
302
OK, now, so presumably that...
303
And that's a live snake.
304
That's a live snake.
305
Were you screamish at all or were you already snake friendly?
306
I was on adrenaline.
307
So I really was just going through the motions.
308
In rehearsals, I broke out in hives though, everywhere.
309
But I was like, you know what, we'll just do it and we'll get it over, it'll be fine.
310
So when we actually did it, the snake, when I came to give it away, its head went right in my face and its tongue sist at me Before I gave it away.
311
It was insane.
312
It was insane.
313
Do your kids like watching you perform?
314
Do they go to the show ever?
315
Because it would be kind of because you're sexy on stage.
316
They go to half of the show They don't watch the whole thing.
317
Okay.
318
Yeah, so is there a sexier half?
319
My niece actually she's five.
320
She watches the whole show Yeah, and she's crazy and she comes in she comes into the quick change with me and she's like Hey, Britney, how'd you do that?
321
She's just like, she's so animated, she's so much fun.
322
How many changes do you get through?
323
You get through a lot of costume changes.
324
Eight.
325
Eight changes?
326
Mm-hmm.
327
Just getting changed that often in one night would be too much for me.
328
Never mind performing as well.
329
Because you're in great shape.
330
I mean, you must be super fit right now to be able to do that show that often.
331
Yeah.
332
I've been doing it for three years now, so my body kind of knows, you know.
333
And what do you do to keep in shape the rest of the time?
334
Is it gym?
335
Is it sports?
336
I run a lot.
337
And you like running?
338
No. Hate it, but I have to do it.
339
I mean playing tennis as well.
340
Yes, okay.
341
Okay.
342
I like to play tennis I'm not particularly good.
343
I like playing tennis and I thought well Why don't we play a version of you know that game beer pong?
344
You don't know beer pong I've heard of it.
345
I've never played it.
346
It's an American game.
347
I think okay You bounce a ping-pong ball into a cup Okay, and then the way they play in the bars you have
348
to drink what's in the cup now We're using slightly larger cups.
349
We figured we won't drink the content So we thought we'd do it instead, that if I get a ball in, you have to do whatever forfeit is linked to that cup and vice versa.
350
All right, I'll follow you.
351
So there are forfeits involved in this special game of Britney ping-ping...
352
This special game of Britney beer pong.
353
Spear pong.
354
Let's call it spear pong.
355
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE So I'm going to give you the pink balls, if you like wee-wees.
356
I'm gonna go with the syllables.
357
There's the cups and and then I get one you can go first
358
If you get one in I have to do whatever for me you can you can have either
359
That is really bad looks like Spears is gonna have a forfeit Look alone Britas Oh!
360
Hit the other person That's my go I'm glad I didn't get that would be horrible
361
LAUGHTER LAUGHTER Yes!
362
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Oh!
363
You've got to kiss Alexander Skarsgård.
364
What?!
365
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Take that, you can take that.
366
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE I shouldn't say this, because you won't believe how much money he gave me to put that in the store.
367
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE CHEERING AND APPLAUSE That's it!
368
She'll never call me.
369
LAUGHTER Good luck, Wendy.
370

373
CHEERS CHEERS That was bad!

380
Helium Challenge!
381
OK, so one of us, which means you, has to suck down some helium...
382
Really?
383
..and sing.
384
Now, we've been asked to say you shouldn't do this at home.
385
OK, so, you've got the one here.
386
So, what song do you want to sing?
387
You can sing one of your own, you can sing a popular song, something we all know.
388

389
Shake it off, shake it off, shake it off!
390
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Oops, I did it again...

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
