Britney Spears on the Worst Rumors About Herself

By

Britney Spears has been the subject of tabloid headlines for well over a decade, but what's the craziest rumor she's ever heard about herself?

"It was on the radio that I died," said Britney. "My family called me, wondering if I'm dead ... It was pretty odd."

While most of her life has been lived out in front of a camera, Britney revealed something that fans might not know about her, saying, "I'm really kind of boring. I'm not high maintenance -- I love my bed; I love working out. I'm very simple."

Another surprising fact is the legacy that Britney hopes to leave behind.

"I would like to be remembered as someone who makes you laugh," said Britney. "I just think laughter is the most joyful thing you can do … I'm really not [a good joke teller] but I wish I was."

What she is good at is making music, and Britney's eighth studio album, Britney Jean, is out now. The pop diva's TV special I Am Britney Jean premieres Sunday, December 22 on E!.
