Jamie Lynn Spears

Jamie Lynn Marie Spears (born April 4, 1991) is an American actress and singer. She gained popularity for her role as Zoey Brooks in the Nickelodeon teen sitcom Zoey 101 (2005–2008) and its sequel film Zoey 102 (2023). Spears also stars as Noreen Fitzgibbons in the Netflix romantic drama series Sweet Magnolias (2020–present). She is the younger sister of singer Britney Spears. In 2007, Spears made headlines when she announced her pregnancy at the age of 16, leading to significant media attention and controversy. Contrary to a misconception, her pregnancy did not cancel Zoey 101, as the final season had already wrapped filming. After taking a break, Spears returned to the entertainment industry in 2013, releasing her debut single and EP in country music.
