Everyone would like to be a millionaire, a person with a lot of money, but can you imagine having over $30 million and only being 20 years old? Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old.She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA.At her young age, she can look after her family financially (經(jīng)濟上) all her life.This year is a big year for Britney.She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out.That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time.It's a tiring schedule but brings her a lot.When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m.a(chǎn)nd then has a lie-in until 1 p.m.the next day.Her philosophy (人生觀) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.
Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting.She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003.In this movie, she has a starring role.
For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (熱心的) about it all.If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herself tells the reporters .
