IT’S FAIR to say Britney Spears has led a life that someone could never imagine.
This also includes the time her and her family lived at Disney World.
Britney Spears and her family lived at Disney World during the singer’s stint on The Mickey Mouse Club.
The show was an American variety TV show that aired intermittently from 1955 to 1996.
It featured a cast of teen performers, also known as Mousketeers, who sang versions of popular songs in front of a live studio audience or at the Walt Disney World resort.
Britney was a Mousketeer from 1993 to 1994, and was just 12-years-old when she joined.
During her time on the show, her and her family resided at Disney World each summer whilst filming took place.
The show helped launch Britney to global success, as she went on to sign with Jive records in 1997.
Her smash hit debut single Baby One More Time was released in 1999.
She’s since had many other hits, including Oops!… I Did It Again, Toxic, Womanizer and Piece Of Me.
Britney wasn’t the only Mouseketeer who has since enjoyed incredible success.
Her fellow cast included Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Aguilera.
During an episode of I’m A Celebrity, Jamie Lynn talked about how she lived at Disney World with her famous sister Britney, and the rest of her family in the mid-90s, over two summers.
The revelation arose as she looked back on her Hollywood upbringing during a conversation with This Morning star Josie Gibson.
Whilst chatting about a number of A-list actors, including Ryan Gosling and Justin Timberlake, Jamie admitted to being surrounded by stars from as young as three years old.
Opening up, she said: “He’s [Ryan] a lovely person in real life.
“When I was younger I grew up around him because he was on The Mickey Mouse Club with my sister. Him, my sister, Justin [Timberlake], Christina [Aguilera]… all of them were on The Mickey Mouse Club. Justin and JC [from NSYNC].”
It was then that she admitted even their home was Disney after the family set up camp to live at Disney World for a slew of consecutive summers.
Jamie Lynn continued: “We lived at Disney World for a couple of summers.”
Josie then asked: “You lived at Disney World?”
The actress then replied: “I was like 3 or 4 and I was causing hell. I was really bad. They want to make a good impression, I’m in a little dress, I’m there at the stage, on my mama’s hip,
‘This is Jamie Lynn my little sister’ and I went, ‘I just farted’. They were like, ‘It never mattered where we were, you always said something to make everyone uncomfortable.’”
She then added: “I think it’s something I still do now. As a child you don’t know to filter yourself. And now I know how to be direct, but with a filter, if that makes any sense. But as a kid I was just very direct with no filter.”
Reflecting on Jamie’s unique upbringing, Josie remarked in the Bush Telegraph: “Even though she’s brought up with a very different childhood, she’s still very, very normal.”
