About

Jamie Lynn Spears (born April 4, 1991) is an American actress, singer, and is the younger sister of Britney Spears. Spears began her career as a child actress on All That and had her breakthrough role when she played Zoey Brooks on the Nickelodeon teen sitcom Zoey 101 (2005–2008); she later reprised this role in the sequel film Zoey 102 (2023). She portrayed Noreen Fitzgibbons on the Netflix romantic drama series Sweet Magnolias (2020–2026) for five seasons. She is the recipient of several accolades, including a Gracie Award, two Kids Choice Awards and two Young Artist Awards.

Beginning in December 2007, Spears was subject to significant media attention and controversy after announcing her pregnancy at age 16. A misconception emerged that this canceled Zoey 101; however, the final season wrapped filming on August 10, 2007, and premiered the following year. After giving birth in June 2008, Spears stopped acting for five years.
Spears returned from her hiatus in 2013 and began her music career. She released her debut single "How Could I Want More" from her debut EP in country music, The Journey (2014). Spears also co-wrote Jana Kramer's platinum certified 2015 single, "I Got the Boy".
In 2023, due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, Spears appeared on reality television shows, such as Dancing with the Stars, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test and I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!.
