Britney Spears is an American pop singer, songwriter, dancer, and actress.
Britney is the daughter of Lynne Irene (Bridges) and James Parnell “Jamie” Spears. She is the sister of film and television producer Bryan Spears and actress and singer Jamie Lynn Spears. She has two children with her former husband, dancer, rapper, model, and actor Kevin Federline.
Britney’s maternal grandmother was an English war bride, and one of Britney’s maternal great-great-grandfathers was Maltese. Most of the rest of Britney’s recent ancestors were American-born, with most of her roots being English, along with Scottish, Scots-Irish/Northern Irish, Irish, French, and Welsh, all of them distant or remote to various degrees. Some of Britney’s distant English ancestors lived in Barbados and Liberia.
Britney’s paternal grandfather was June Austin Spears (the son of June Becker/Bacot Spears and Nova Gill). Britney’s grandfather June was born in Amite, Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana. Britney’s great-grandfather June was the son of Pascal Greene Spears and Mary Pauline Bridges. Nova was the daughter of James Monroe Gill and Effie Strahan.
Britney’s paternal grandmother was Emma Jean Forbes (the daughter of William Nelson Forbes and Lexie/Lexis May Thompson). Emma was born in Mississippi. William was the son of William Nelson Forbes and Kiturah/Katuriah Leona Ball. Lexie was the daughter of Ernest Fulton Thompson and Bertha Magee.
Britney’s maternal grandfather was Barnett Oldfield/O’Field “Barney” Bridges (the son of Joel Menton Bridges and Addie/Adeline/Addy Williams). Barnett was born in Louisiana. Joel was the son of James Jack Bridges and Mary Josephine Phillips. Addie was the daughter of Marshall E. Williams and Missouri E. Wall.
Britney’s maternal grandmother was Lilian/Lillian Irene Portell (the daughter of George Anthony Portelli/Portell and Lilian Esther Lewis). Britney’s grandmother Lilian was born in Barkham Road, Tottenham. George was the son of Edward Richard Portelli, who was from Malta, and of Alice Taylor. Britney’s great-grandmother Lilian was the daughter of James Lewis and Esther Moss. Britney’s Maltese great-great-grandfather Edward was the son of Antonio Portelli; it is possible that Edward was of Italian ancestry, like many people on Malta.
Britney’s parents are third cousins. Two of Britney’s paternal great-great-great-grandparents, William Lee Bridges and Pauline Ann Travis, were also two of Britney’s maternal great-great-great-grandparents.

I hope she does not have distant SSA admix.
What , you don’t want her to be like you
Im italian, im already like her.
as far as I know you’re Brazilian.
is brazilian an ethnicity?

She looks Norwegian. I would know I was born and spent most of my life there.
Wow Neiltennant first of all I am half Norwegian descent. 2nd of all it’s called an opinion and btw you’re the idiot who laughs at minorities that don’t agree with you politically. So maybe get a brain before calling anyone else an idiot okay
Neiltennant I take back my critical comment against you.. you are 100% right. She is very exotic! probably a mixture of Palestinian and South African DNA with a drop of Chinese. God bless America! A beautiful melting pot.
Maltese are basically Arabic-speaking Sicilians. Her mom is only 1/8 Maltese, but looks full Sicilian or Jewish.
I agree with you! Probably Britney’s mother does have Sicilian and Jewish ancestry some where down the line on the Maltese side of their family.
Many sicilians looks armenoid in their phenotype, Lady gaga does it.
You need to stop to read so-called “anthropology forums” led by bipolar/transgender admins (you perfectly know what I mean) because Lady Gaga never look “Armenoid”. This is how she looked before having a rhinoplasty (her nose looks thinner now)

An “Armenoid” girl has this look: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3039/3092462399_8b3b340afe.jpg
Lady Gaga in 2005 kind of looks like that “Armenoid” girl:

Only in the hair style. Do you know what an Armenoid is?

Lady gaga still look to me Gracile Med-Alpine-Armenoid.
Lady Gaga’s father is of Sicilian descent, not Lady Gaga. And he looks Southern European: http://img.wennermedia.com/article-leads-horizontal/lady-gaga-and-joe-germanotta-release-cook-book-c9d5d05f-93e8-439d-897f-96bf861cda73.jpg.
Average Sicilian does not look Armenoid/West Asian besides some cherrypicked examples. Also (Ashkenazi) Jews can look like anything and they’re different from Sicilians. You need to detoxify from anthro forums.
Lady gaga’s mother is also part italian. Armenoid look is very common in MESSINA, CATANIA, and SYRACUSE.

CLEARLY looks like lady gaga
deal with it, lady gaga came out really italian with alpine and armenoid phenotype.
nice pic by Wilhelm von Gloeden. Btw you still have no clue about what Armenoid phenotype is since you’re completely brainwashed to put Sicilian, Lebanese and Jews in the same bag. Lebanon is an Arab/MENA country while Sicily is part of Southern Europe, and Lady Gaga is not Armenoid at all: http://a2.files.beautyeditor.ca/image/upload/c_fit,cs_srgb,dpr_1.0,q_80,w_620/MTE5NDg0MDYyOTc5MTYzNjYz.jpg
So? this is armenoid phenotype https://s27.postimg.io/693zs47fn/Georgian_Armenoid.jpg
its very common in many southern italians, and lady gaga does it in many pictures. She is Alpine and armenoid, it has nothing to do about being lebanese or something
its just a phenotype common in many Arab countries/Sicilians from Messina, Catania, Syracuse and in Jews.
And, many sicilians does have a lot of north african genes, mostly scores more than 10% on 23andme.
12% native american is enough to make you look mestizo, dont you think southern italians looks MENA because many are more than 10% north african? FOR SURE.

The fact is that what you think is Armenoid is not actually Armenoid. Stop whitewashing MENAs. A real Armenoid has these features (Nose, occiput, forehead and eyes): http://imgur.com/a/8ICaC. This kind of look does not exist in Sicily.
Lady gaga is not fully armenoid but she has some influence, she is also alpine.
youre blind enough to not see she share somes features with this armenoid type
https://s27.postimg.io/693zs47fn/Georgian_Armenoid.jpg
easy to see it

yeah, I am blind. You’re comparing a black and white picture of a hook-nosed swarthy Georgian man with the one of an entertainer of mixed South and North/West European background who had several plastic surgery treatments, and whose natural appareance (before she become famous) was this: http://a2.files.beautyeditor.ca/image/upload/MTE5NDg0MDYyOTc5MTYzNjYz.jpg
she looks more armenoid before she was famous
