Emma Roberts Talks About Playing Britney Spears In Biopic

Buy Me A Coffee

Emma Roberts is apparently getting ready to Britney-fy her life, and we are here for it. Earlier this month, the world (or at least, like, five people on Twitter) lost its collective mind when it was revealed that Britney Spears’ iconic memoir The Woman in Me is being turned into a movie. And guess who’s at the helm? None other than Wicked director Jon M. Chu, because, you know, we totally need a musical about Britney’s life with people randomly belting out “Oops!… I Did It Again” in the middle of a heartfelt monologue.

Now, as with any good celebrity biopic, the question on everyone’s lips is, “Who on Earth can possibly do justice to the legendary Britney?” (And no, it’s not you, Karen from accounting, stop trying). Enter Felicia Culotta, Britney’s former assistant, who decided to sprinkle some major Hollywood wisdom by suggesting drumroll please… Emma Roberts. Yep, the Scream Queens star could soon be trading in her sharp one-liners for a bedazzled microphone and some iconic dance moves.

Emma, of course, was flattered beyond belief when she heard the news. In a Cosmo interview, she gushed, β€œI was like, I love her assistant.” (Okay, we’re pretty sure that’s not how casting decisions work, but we’ll roll with it, Emma).

But wait, it gets better. Emma revealed it’s her “true dream” to play Britney. (Move over, world peace, this is the dream we never knew we needed). She continued, β€œIt’s a rumor, but I hope maybe it’ll come true.” That’s right, guysβ€”Emma Roberts is out here wishing upon a star, hoping that one day she’ll be able to rock a headset mic and croon about how she’s “not that innocent.”

In fact, Emma is already hardcore preparing for the role. She confessed, β€œI remember I locked myself in my room and listened to In the Zone and said, β€˜I cannot leave this room until I memorize every word.’” Now, this is the level of commitment we’re talking about! If you haven’t locked yourself in a room and sung β€œToxic” until your neighbors hate you, have you even lived?

Oh, and get this: Emma’s already performing Britney classics… to her son. β€œI sing Britney to my son in the bath all the time,” she revealed. Because, clearly, nothing says β€œsoothing bath time” like belting out β€œGimme More” while scrubbing your toddler’s hair. As Emma wisely noted, β€œThat’s some millennial parenting.” Amen, sister. If you’re not raising your kids on a steady diet of Britney and avocado toast, are you even doing it right?

So, while we wait to see if Emma will actually don Britney’s iconic sparkly jumpsuit, let’s just hope her son appreciates having a pop princess for a mom… and that he doesn’t grow up wondering why every bath time feels like a 2003 MTV Music Awards performance.

Stay tuned, y’all! This Britney biopic could be the movie we didn’t know we desperately needed.
