Revealing that she was keen to do a series of shows on the famous Strip, it transpired when Britney went backstage during Celine's residency in 2003 where she became "jealous" of the stability of the job offered.

Speaking to Billboard magazine she explained: "I remember how beautiful it was - really cool, low-key - and ​[Celine's] dressing room was great.

"I was actually jealous, like, 'Oh, my gosh, she gets to be in one place all the time.' Everything clicked: To have your children and your family and that way of life, it just makes sense to have everything in one place."

Despite enjoying that time, Britney's said it's not her "full priority" to record new music and instead wants to spend some time with her sons, who will always come first.

"I'm gonna do [a new album] slowly but surely.

"There's a lot going on with my kids and schools and, you know, adding new sports and stuff like that. I'm gonna try to do my best to do an amazing album, but it's not my full priority right now.

"Kids can drive you crazy."
