Britney had her hands full this week: the pop star’s sixth studio album Circus was released yesterday, coinciding with her 27th birthday and a performance on Good Morning America. But let’s focus on that new and improved tummy. Brit’s experienced some major yo-yoing in the stomach region over the past 10 years. From seriously cut to baby-house, her abs have been a barometer of how much crazy is going on in her noggin – there’s history in those once-defined six pack lines.
1998
When Britney burst into teenage girls’ Discmans, she was cutely soft, like she’d just eaten a PB&J with the crusts cut off then seductively wiped the crumbs off her implants.
1999
Brit’s Rolling Stone cover reveals more than just her underwear preferences and a thing for Teletubbies. The pop tart seems to be laying off the Pop Tarts. She might be serious about this superstar sex symbol thing.
2000
Hold the phone – we went from adorable-babysitter Britney to certified Sex Pot in one year! The little bit of pudge she had in 1998 has completely disappeared, to be replaced by abs of steel and a sure sign of trouble: that sparkly bellybutton ring.
