Britney Spears thinks it's her job to look more like a "sex kitten" than she really is.
Britney's video for her new single 'Work Bitch' shows her flaunting her figure in sexy outfits while she whips her dancers and she claims this is a different role than at home. Britney is mother to sons eight-year-old Sean and seven-year-old Jayden - who she has with ex-husband Kevin Federline and says she is nothing like her stage persona..
Quizzed on her sex appeal she says: "I think it goes with what I do. It's my job to portray more of a sex kitten than what I really am at home with my kids." she told Showbiz 411
The pop star finds her stage alta-ego therapeutic because it is so far removed from her real life and her performances give her the opportunity to portray a different even darker character.
She says As artists I think people who are really shy a category that she includes herself in it means when they get on stage, it's really good to become this different character, and she sees it more like therapy.
Britney thinks there is a lot of pressure to look good in the music industry and insists stars should surround themselves with "cool people" to make sure they stay "grounded."
She added: "I think there is a pressure for girls to have the right nose, the right body and you are your environment so it becomes contagious when you get in that environment.
"You actually become that yourself, so it's important to keep cool people around you to keep you grounded."
