Rebel Wilson is undoubtedly a huge Britney Spears fan, and that is something that helped her while working Senior Year on Netflix.

“Okay, I’m just Britney”: Rebel Wilson on How She Channeled Britney Spears to Perform on Crazy in Senior Year on Netflix

We all had a phase where we were absolutely crazy over a celebrity, didn’t we?
Maybe you thought that you be as cool as Eminem, or as funny as Steve Carell, or
as beautiful as Selena Gomez, or maybe something else. The gist is that we all
have this one celebrity who means the world to us, and we try to be like them.
And for many people who belong to a generation above us, it has to be the famous
pop star, Britney Spears. And that is also the case with Rebel Wilson, the star
and producer of Netflix’s upcoming movie Senior Year.

In the movie, Wilson plays the role of a cheerleader who has woken up from a
coma after 20 years and now desires to re-live her life as a high schooler and
be the prom queen. And while trying to do that, she catches up with the
cheerleaders in 2022. A few kids who do not dance, be hot, and just stay at home
while everyone else parties. Hence, Stephanie Conway, Wilson’s character,
teaches the kids to dance to Britney Spears
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/britney-spears]‘ song Crazy. And being a big fan
of the singer, Rebel Wilson herself channels her inner Britney in the
performance. But how did she do that? Let’s see what she had to say about it.


REBEL WILSON ON BECOMING BRITNEY SPEARS WHILE DANCING TO CRAZY IN ‘SENIOR YEAR’

Rebel is herself a huge Britney fan. In the video, she reveals she has watched
all her film clips and listens to her music. This is why she “tried to channel
her energy or something”. And while they took a couple of shots from different
angles, the director of the movie even told her that she looks like Britney
Spears in some of them.



“I was just like, okay, I’m just Britney,” Wilson exclaimed in the video. She
tried to think about how Britney would do certain things and then try to do it
in that way. She did break out of the role sometimes, to joke around and have
fun with her casemates, but then in a while, she was back to work!

We are really excited to see Rebel Wilson
