By now we all know that Britney Spears is so over being a pop star. But her newest aspirations seem a tad bit more ambitious than her plans to put all those buns in her oven: The Lady Federline wants to become a forensic scientist.
That's right folks, the girl whose third-grade book report–riddled with mistakes, natch–was recently auctioned off at Christie's wants to get a college education in order to enter a highly skilled and demanding field. The Britster has reportedly been seeking advice from someone who is totally, like, her twin: Natalie Portman. Portman graduated from Harvard with a degree in psychology while continuing her A-list career track. So if she can do it then naturally Britney can do it while barefoot and chain smoking, right? A source told London's Daily Mirror, "It sounds ridiculous but she's been inspired by TV's Crime Scene Investigation, which shows scientists solving crimes."
If only more celebs would take Britney's cue and follow the career paths depicted in their favorite TV shows. Just imagine it: Paris Hilton watches too much 24 and wants to fight terrorism as a government agent; Lindsay Lohan can't get enough of Scrubs and wants to attend medical school; Colin Farrell religiously tunes in to Smallville and wants to become Superman. Ah, what a wonderful world it would be.
