- I have been a huge Brittany fan since I was
maybe 12 years old. I'm like the person that someone's like,
oh my God, I wish I had that kind of collection.
I probably have.
- Spent over 50 to 70,000 dollars on brittany.
You're watching MTVs lifestyles of the biggest tandem.
This episode is dedicated to three stands of the pinnacle of
pop artists whose fan base is so passionate.
They started a worldwide movement. Free Brittany, the one,
the only Britney Spears is Haley's collection toxic or an
antidote to a boring and bland life does brand space make
you feel like you're in a chaotic circus.
Am I driving you crazy with the song bones? All right.
Let's hold hands and begin our majestic voyage by checking
out super Stan. Brittany's impressive.
Britney Spears, hideaway.
- Welcome to my room. My name is Brittany.
That's what two teens.
And I've been collecting Brittany since I was nine years old
spent I think about a hundred thousand dollars on all my
things. And this is my Britney sanctuary.
I call this and Brittany addiction.
I don't really call it a collection because I keep buying
and buying. It's like never ending.
And I have kids triples, anything of Brittany, I have it.
And you can see, I have 70 Brittany doll, 300 magazines.
These are all my Brittany stands. I have 17 in total.
All these here are all Brittany shirts.
My Brittany addiction is very bad.
I collect too much. I buy too much.
I buy things I have already.
I just like to buy Brittany stuff because I don't want
somebody else to have it, or I don't want it in the trash.
That's how bad it is.
Really cool collectibles here.
Like my first Brittany Corbus game boy game, this laptop,
a little music player.
I have every sticker she ever had down here is all like hair
accessories. I try to think of one item I can live without,
but I can't because my addiction is so bad.
I don't know what these are,
but I got them on eBay and they say,
meshing the gathering this little thing here,
you put your eye in there. And her picture is in there.
This is how I got on the internet. Back in the day,
I paid $60 just for this little pin.
This has got milk campaign from 2000,
she signed it something very rare.
I became a Brittany Stan around nine years old.
It's a picture of me.
This was actually my mom's living room in New York.
Like you see some Brittany back there,
but I pretty much took over her living room.
And then these pictures here was the start of my Brittany
room. When we moved to Pennsylvania,
those walls are like plastered with Brittany.
Everywhere is like never ending.
That's where it really started the whole addiction.
And then I brought it over here to Texas.
My Brittany lifestyle is kind of hidden because I'm a mom of
five kids.
So nobody really knows I have this addiction unless they
knew me before I had kids.
Like they couldn't believe it until they see it.
Then they say how you have this stuff hidden with your
around. And you know, I have my lock on my door is secure.
My kids know, do not touch a Brittany.
And that's it.
They just understand this is the start of my Brittany
addiction. These are her first catalogs,
which shows her merchandise in here.
Some of these things I'm still searching for this thing.
I've never found. I've never seen anybody with it.
So that's one of the items I'm searching for.
I spent, I think about a hundred thousand on all my stuff,
6,000 with the dolls, 6,000 on books,
the things that were in these cases,
maybe like 4,000 for each the stands, maybe 6,000, 2,500,
just for the shirts, the concerts 3000 each.
And that's probably not including traveling there.
A lot of my memories is Brittany, no matter where I was,
it was Brittany.
Whether I was bringing her with me and we was going to see
her, it was just Brittany, everything.
Brittany,
these pictures are from her first concert that I ever went
to, which was a dream within a dream tour.
That was like nine years old.
I wish I had one with my mom in it.
Cause she was with me.
A lot of my collection revolves around my mom because she
bought most of my items for me when I was young around that
time, my mom and my dad were both diagnosed with cancer.
And unfortunately my dad passed away, but my mom survived.
And during that time,
a lot of Brittany songs just made me happy.
My mom would get me, whatever of Brittany.
I wanted just to make me happy.
Even though she was like going through a lot of stuff.
She took me to my first Brittany concert.
She took me to 42nd street,
TRL outside when Britney was in the window,
who was standing outside,
across the street with a big sign and our camcorder,
my mom was there anything with Brittany, she was just there.
Here's a picture of me and my mom.
We went to Vegas to go to the Brittany concert and we got to
meet her assistant .
This was as close as we were to the stage.
Pretty much see her catwalk right there.
Brittany is very important to my life because my mom,
my dad, she just, it just all brings back memories for me.
Hope one day,
me and her can meet Brittany and I love my mom.
She's the best.
I have an actual diary entry that I made.
I was like 10 years old an it reads dear diary, I really,
really,
really want to meet Brittany Spears because I have many
things of Britney Spears. I even have her doll from oops,
I did it again.
And the other one from barn to make you happy,
loved Brittany, your number one fan.
I still consider myself number one fan.
doesn't matter if I don't have everything,
I have enough to make me look like a number one state.
- If you think that was impressive.
Wait until you see Haley's Britney Spears, treasure trove.
Haley is a one-time Brittany lookalike winner on Broadway
performer. So this display better be theatrical 5, 6, 7, 8.
- Hi, I'm Haley.
I am my Broadway performer here in New York city.
And I've been a huge Brittany fan since I was maybe 12 years
old. And I'm still standing today.
I listen to Brittany every single day, every day,
being a dancer and a performer.
I think I really got into her because of her pop music and
her performances and our costumes and our dancing.
And I just wanted to be her and I still want to be here to
this day.
I've done tribute concerts of her with friends where we
recreate her dances. We sing songs.
We bring all of our merchandise and decorate the stage.
I just love her.
I've always had the bug for performing ever since I was a
really little kid in our local paper,
there was a dance like sing,
like look like Britney Spears contest. And I won.
So here's me sitting in my grass.
I think the first dance I tried to recreate was boops.
We have this huge television growing up and I would put a
mirror up against the sofa so I could watch the performance
from the mirror so I wouldn't have to reverse it.
And then I teach myself all of the dances looking in the
mirror. I was obsessed.
You're comparing me to other people.
I might not have the largest collection,
but in my heart I have the biggest collection.
I have each towel, rolls books and posters,
onesies and sweatshirts. And t-shirts crazy.
Live 2000 over here is my Brittany Spears. Oops.
I did it again. Outfit.
I wore this for Beth Midler's Hulu wean party.
The theme was cosmos and I of course had to go as Brittany
from oops. I did have my friend do my hair.
Exactly like Brittany's.
And of course we have to have a Brittany mic because you
can't be Brittany without a microphone.
I would wear this everyday if I could.
So it's time to open the Brittany cabinet.
It should sing. When I open it,
all of my Brittany hats tour books,
this is a fun little do Hickey, have a Brittany collection.
So it's a calendar. I have no idea of what year it's from,
but if you go like this, it's like, oh,
you've got all different months. What else?
We have an actual Brittany Spears lunchbox.
I use it to travel all of my makeup and toiletries while I
travel Q-tip anyone need a Q-tip Britney Spears coloring
books, a VHS tape from McDonald's super rare, super iconic.
I need to buy a VHS player.
I would say I've probably spent five to 10 grand,
including concert tickets, CDs, magazines, costumes,
Valentine's cards. I mean, the list just goes on and on.
And then still to this day, I'm still buying
These I bought at the Brittany tour.
They don't do any good, like they don't get you backstage,
but they make you feel really fancy. So I had to buy,
this is one of my most special items that I have.
My mom made me this purse and these are actual photos that I
took from when I saw her front row,
her dream within a dream concert in Denver.
This is a picture of me with a standing cutout of Brittany.
It's a really, really special item for me.
It's one of a kind, my mom made it for me.
And obviously you can tell from the use that I love it.
And I still use it to this day.
This photo is an actual photo. I took,
I was walking down the streets in New York one day and I saw
this guy. He had the signs, the best sign I've ever seen.
And I had to take a photo of it.
This is one of my most prized possessions.
I was cast as Glenda on the national tour of wicked.
And as an opening night gift,
my friend took his Brittany Spears,
Pepsi doll and turned it into Glenda.
So this is me as Glenda, as Britney Spears.
Okay.
So my most meaningful Brittany item is
it's my fan club card.
This is the official international fan club.
I always say if I had a safety deposit box,
this is the only thing that I would be in it because you
can't get this anywhere.
Brittany means so much to me because she's my whole life.
She's been my childhood.
I watched her perform since I was 12 until now being an
adult. I am collecting memories from every single day of my
childhood. Every moment that she was in, I saved that.
And I remember those moments and it really does take you
back when you're looking throughout all of this stuff.
And so yeah, I collect all the stuff in my heart.
- Ooh, official international fan club membership.
I have one of those for a gym. Never used it.
Mint condition finally last, but certainly not least.
Let's head to Hollywood and meet Brittany Spears.
Super Stan Brian
- Hi,
my name is Brian Smith and I'm one of the biggest Brittany
Stan.
I've been a mega Brittany Stan for 23 years.
My fandom has never wavered and I've always been a Brittany
army general.
My love for Brittany Spears is deep.
I've seen her live 22 times
and probably spent over 50 to 70000 dollars
on Brittany over the years, not including my white Mercedes,
that it was inspired by to get by Brittany,
but it's all well worth it things I like to collect.
Obviously I love having all of the posters, calendars,
blankets, dolls, the Funko pops,
or more of the new work stuff that people are collecting.
A lot of school supplies. This is one of my favorites,
the little ruler that came in the pencil pouch.
And then we have like the little perfume area here.
My favorites fantasy, some Brittany prayer candles.
Cause you know, we always need to pray to God,
got to have some COVID moments here. It's Brittany.
I was get a fun reaction when I wear that. I cut out.
So one of my favorite things and some of my cuffs that
people probably think was trash, but not to me.
So as the popcorn bag from crossroads,
so this was a 20 year old popcorn bag that I kept because
why not have shirts? T-shirts pants, tank, tops, underwear.
I have probably 40 or 50.
T-shirts some of my favorites here. I love the original.
Oops. I did it again.
Tour shirt and original Britney Spears,
a crew jacket from the baby. One more time tour.
And then probably my favorite is this one here.
It's like a little Britney Spears,
bomber jacket probably spent like a few thousand dollars
over all this stuff, but I do wear it all the time.
I love repping a Brittany Spears shirt every day so that
people will comment and say free Brittany or say like,
Brittany's awesome because I want people to know that she is
an icon and she will always be an icon.
This is some Brittany fingerless gloves.
These are my Brittany Spears, sketcher skates.
They're very rare to find this is one of my favorite things
that I made. Brittany Spears and Cyrus circus necklace.
It's like a replica of the one she had in circus.
I'm probably going to be buried in this thing for sure.
I've been a Britney Spears fan since eighth grade.
And I definitely was made fun of constantly,
but I was the tough girl.
So I just didn't care what people said. And I was like, no,
she's bad-ass.
And I always knew that they asked fans for Brittany's 21st
birthday to make her a birthday card.
My card got selected all those years ago and it's on the
limited edition poster, which is really awesome.
I've seen Brittany at her Vegas show, 15 times.
This is my 30th birthday. All my friends,
we were VIP front row and we dressed up as Brittany and her
and her dancers loved it.
I also spent a lot of money on greets. You know,
when I got to meet her in Vegas, that was like rent.
So, but it was so worth it, my meet and greet photos,
super special. So nervous.
I had like 30 seconds to a minute with her.
So I just let her know how proud I am of her to be a fan.
I've been a fan since day one.
And that I make cocktails inspired her by her.
Cause I'm a Los Angeles bartender.
I've made many cocktails based on her with like baby one,
my Tai toxic poison, paradise doubles, Cub poppy stronger.
There's been so many different oxtails that I've been
inspired to make because of her. And she was like,
oh my God, that's so cool.
I'm going to have to try that.
And I blacked out and I was sober and there you go,
baby one,
my Thai craziest thing I've probably ever done for Brittany
is maybe by her gifts that we've sent to Felicia,
her assistant when she is in Vegas,
Felicia's Brittany's longtime assistant that we cherish so
much in the Brittany army.
I was lucky enough to get to talk to her.
And I'm in a few Facebook groups where we've been able to
get in contact with Felicia and send Brittany some gifts.
I bought her a rice recipe cookbook because I knew she loved
rice dishes. And she said that in an interview.
So I thought that would be really fun to send her.
Brittany means everything to me like she's,
I don't wanna get emotional, but she's gone through so much.
And to see her persevere constantly has been
an inspiration. I am.
- Thrilled that all of this free Brittany movement is
happening. We've all known.
What's been happening for a really long time,
but I feel like the rest of the world knows.
- What she's been going through.
- I'm really rooting for her. I really hope that she gets.
- She's such a amazing person.
And I feel like the world has tried to down her and
us fans never felt that way.
What an emotional way to say goodbye to this week's episode
of lifestyles of the biggest tandems.
We hope you feel just as hashtag team Brittany,
as we do right now, join us next week.
As we rummaged through collections from superstans
of Billie Eilish and the weekend,
will there be trash or will there be treasures?
We'd say more, but we signed an ending here.
