When asked about the casting rumors, Roberts said: “I mean, it’s my real dream to play Britney Spears. It’s a rumor, but I hope that maybe it will come true.”

She recalled her devotion to Spears’ music and how she would lock herself in her room to memorize every word of Spears’ album, “In the Zone.” “I mean, I remember locking myself in my room and listening to In the Zone and saying, ‘I can’t leave this room until I know every word by heart.'”

“I can recite the entire album from muscle memory because I’m constantly singing Britney songs to my son in the bathtub,” Roberts added.

The announcement that Emma Roberts is set to play Britney Spears in an upcoming biopic has sparked a heated reaction from fans, with many expressing concerns about the casting.

Fans aren’t entirely thrilled after Roberts recently responded to rumors and expressed her excitement at the chance to play Spears.

One fan commented, “She doesn’t give a damn about Britney Spears. She’s an incredible actress but I don’t think she does Britney justice.” Another added, “But she doesn’t exude anything like Britney Spears.”

Some fans expressed doubts about Robert’s suitability for the role. One said: “I’m sorry, but she doesn’t have the talent.”

One user noted, “It’s not that I don’t think she would do a good job in the role, but I think she’s made such a name for herself as Emma Roberts that it doesn’t make sense anymore. We’d be focusing too much on the fact that it’s her and not the movie.”

“Girl you just ruined the surprise before the trailer,” said one user.

“Love her but no,” wrote another user.
