TV STARDOM 101

Jamie Lynn landed Zoey 101, her own Nickelodeon series, in 2005. In it, she plays a popular girl at a co-ed boarding school. Jamie Lynn tapped Britney to help her with the show's theme song – the younger Spears sang lead vocals while Britney provided backup vocals. The rising star even started making the talk-show rounds on her own, sitting with David Letterman and appearing on MTV's TRL.
