"Spears, Britney Spears."

Also from IMdb, Britney Spears's Bond girl aspirations:

Spears the Bond Girl?

Britney Spears has reportedly set her sights on copying her pop pal Madonna by appearing in the next James Bond film. The singer has said she will spend the next couple of years concentrating on her acting career, following the muted response to her comeback album
In The Zone - and Spears has instigated a meeting with 007 producer Barbara Broccoli to discuss the possibility of appearing alongside Pierce Brosnan in the next spy offering. A source says, "Britney's desperate to carve out a name for herself as an actress and loves the idea of being a Bond girl. She's in great shape and thinks she'd be brilliant. Britney has seen what it's done profile wise for Halle Berry and she wants a slice of the action." Berry appeared with Madonna in the last Bond film, 2002's DIE ANOTHER DAY.

With all of Britney's coming-of-age hijinks, part of me holds out hope she's a decent gal. She'd be okay as a Bond girl. Make her an assassin like KILL BILL's Go-Go Yubari. She wouldn't even have to change her name:

"Bond, James Bond. And who might you be?"

"Britney Spears."

"Ah, I get the point."

"You might."
