What was “Crossroads” about?
"Crossroads" is a coming-of-age film that starred Spears, Zoe Saldana and Taryn Manning as three childhood best friends who embark on a fun cross-country road trip that helps them rediscover their friendship after spending eight years apart.
On the trip, they also focus on following their dreams, learning important life lessons that not only change the trajectory of their lives but their friendship.
What has Britney Spears said about "Crossroads"?
In a 2002 interview with MTV, Spears revealed what led her to sign on to the Shonda Rhimes penned film, saying it was because "Crossroads" reminded her of her own friendships with her childhood friends.
"I wanted to do a teen movie, but I wanted to do something that teenagers could watch and be touched by," she said.
Spears also spoke about her character, Lucy, and how she was similar to her "four years ago," noting that Lucy is very "naive" and "shy."
"But the thing I really like about Lucy is that she's very strong. I like that," she said.
