LOS ANGELES - Part of Hollywood Boulevard is now "In the Zone" of Britney
Spears (news). The pop star received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
Monday before nearly 2,000 screaming fans.


The event took place one day after her corset-jiggling appearance on the
American Music Awards and a day before her latest album, "In the Zone," was
set to arrive in stores.


She arrived at the ceremony in jeans, a pink shirt and a furry pink jacket,
and immediately began signing posters and magazines for admirers. One young
woman, perched on a friend's shoulders, leaned over a barricade and begged
Spears to touch her hand - then exploded in tears when the singer complied.


"I'm seriously speechless right now," Spears told the crowd. "This is
something that I've dreamt about since I was a little girl. I can't believe
I'm actually here with all of you amazing fans. Hello?"


At 21, Spears tied with former "Little House on the Prairie" actress Melissa
Gilbert (news) for being the youngest person to accept a Walk of Fame star.
Gilbert, now 39 and president of the Screen Actors Guild (news - web sites),
received her honor in 1985.


Spears made funny faces at friends and giggled as Johnny Grant, the Walk of
Fame master of ceremonies and chairman of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce
(news - web sites), introduced her by reading the names of her singles and
albums.


The performer has gone from posing as a schoolgirl to sing "... Baby, One
More Time" and saying sex should be saved for marriage to recording "I'm a
Slave 4 U," kissing Madonna (news - web sites) during the MTV Video Music
Awards and posing nearly nude for magazine covers.


Her latest album, aimed at crafting an edgier image, includes moaning and
heavy breathing on tracks such as "Breathe on Me" and "Touch of My Hand."
