Alexander, Jason: Spears married her childhood friend -- not to be confused with the "Seinfeld" actor -- in a surprise Vegas wedding in January 2004, only to have the marriage annulled 55 hours later.
Baby: The most reoccurring word in Britney's lyrics, most famously heard in "...Baby One More Time," which opens with her signature, "Oh bay-buh, bay-buh."
"Crossroads" : Britney's 2002 film earned Spears Worst Actress honors at the Razzie Awards.
Diet: Seemingly consists of Cheetos, Red Bulls and Frappuccinos, though she somehow keeps her bikini bod in shape. (Did you see her on Letterman last month? Yowza!)
"Everytime": Spears' most touching ballad is accompanied by an eerie video in which she foresees her death at the hands of the paparazzi (scary!), and she shacks up in a Vegas penthouse with Stephen Dorff (scarier!).
Federline, Kevin: Britney's ex-husband and the father of her two children. The wannabe rapper also co-starred with Spears in the short-lived reality TV disaster "Britney & Kevin: Chaotic."
Gum-snapping: Brit was criticized for incessantly snapping her Trident during her monumentally ill-informed sit-down interview with Matt Lauer in 2006.
"How I Met Your Mother": Britney's well-received 2008 guest turn on the CBS sitcom was one of the first steps in rebuilding her career in the wake of her nearly career-killing appearance at the 2007 VMAs.
Implants: A 2008 Rolling Stone report alleged Brit underwent breast enhancement surgery while she was a teen, but later had her implants removed.
Justin Timberlake: Timberlake and Spears were the teen pop-power couple at the turn of the millennium. Her alleged tryst with choreographer Wade Robson led to their split and inspired one of Timberlake's biggest hits, "Cry Me a River."
Karate Kid: In the 2008 documentary "Britney: For the Record," Spears left us with this memorable parting line: "I go through life like a Karate Kid." Ralph Macchio would be proud.
Louisiana: The state that gave us hot sauce, jazz and yes, Britney Spears.
Mr. Clean: The look Britney was apparently going for when she shaved her head in early 2007.
"New Mickey Mouse Club": Where Britney got her start in 1993, alongside castmates Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Ryan Gosling.
"Oops! I Did It Again ": The title of Britney's sophomore album gave lazy journalists everywhere an easy one-liner every time she made a mistake (or, even better, followed it up with another mistake).
Python: The type of snake Spears seductively danced with during her performance of "I'm a Slave 4 U" at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.
Queen of Pop: A title usually reserved for Madonna but sometimes given to Spears. It's cool: The two are friends and collaborated on the single "Me Against the Music."
Rehab: Where Spears landed three days after she shaved her head.
"Saturday Night Live": Spears was the youngest person to ever appear as both host and musical guest when she did double duty in 2000 at the age of 18.
"Toxic": This 2004 single was one of Britney's most well-received songs, and earned Spears her first Grammy (for Best Dance Recording).
Umbrella: An enraged (and bald!) Spears' weapon of choice when she attacked a paparazzo in 2007.
Ventilation issues: What the Spears camp blamed when Britney cut a performance short in Vancouver earlier this year, after clouds of marijuana smoke from the crowd allegedly hung over the stage during the concert.
