Jamie Lynn Spears Goes Country?
The latest celebrity to jump on the country crossover bandwagon? Jamie Lynn Spears, according to E! News.
Spears, younger sister to pop-star Britney and a TV star in her own right, is reportedly shopping for a Nashville record deal. The teen already has a little bit of musical experience, singing the theme song to her Nickelodeon sitcom, 'Zoey 101.' Sources close to the Spears family tell E! that Jamie Lynn "has been quietly working on a country album since last fall."
Spears made headlines last summer when she gave birth, at age 17, to a baby girl. She left Hollywood and is now raising daughter Maddie in Mississippi with her fiance, Casey Aldridge.
