Britney Jean Spears is a minor antagonist in the 2002 film Austin Powers in Goldmember, the third and final installment of the Austin Powers trilogy.
She is one of the Fembots, a series of femme fatale gynoids built by the criminal organization run by Dr. Evil. In this comedic cameo role, she confronts Austin Powers at the beginning of the film and makes a brief attempt on his life before her destruction. Why she was in Hollywood in place of her inspiration is never explained.
She was portrayed by herself.
Biography[]
During the opening credits, Austin busts in on Britney during a music video shooting for her song, Boys, and they have a dance off, with she and her male backup dancers against Austin and his female admirers. She engages in a comical slap fight with him and displays many sexy dance moves, singing the song uninterrupted. When she reveals herself as a fembot by sprouting machine gun barrels from her breasts and trying to shoot Austin at the climax of their battle, she reacts with surprise to him catching one of her bullets with his teeth before he works his mojo on her, causing her to malfunction until her head blows up, while her dancers run away in fear.
No consequences seem to arise from her demise, and she is never referred to again.
