Britney Spears, 17, has always wanted to be a big star with a Number 1 record. This year she shot to the top in a big way. Britney's first album, ...Baby One More Time, and her song of the same title have both become Number 1 hits. Britney is the first new solo singer ever to hit the top with an album and song at the same time. "It's what I always wanted to do since I was little," she says. For the past few months, she was on tour with two guys who used to be in the Mickey Mouse Club with her--Justin Timberlake and Joshua ("J.C.") Chasez--and their band 'N Sync. "I need to sing, and I love to travel," says Britney. She'd better love to travel. This new star is taking off!
