Spears was born in a small town, McComb, Mississippi to Jamie and Lynne Spears. She attended Parklane Academy, where she was a cheerleader and a member of the basketball team. She finished her education there via online correspondence and received her GED in February 2008 from Kentwood High School in Kentwood, Louisiana.
Spears made her acting debut in the 2002 Paramount film Crossroads, which starred older sister Britney, in a cameo role as young Lucy Wagner.
Spears then signed on as a regular performer on the Nickelodeon sketch series All That. Her performance was positively received by critics and she stayed on for the last three seasons of the series from 2002 to 2004.
She then took the role of the protagonist Zoey Brooks of the Nickelodeon situation comedy series Zoey 101. The series premiered in 2005 and ran four seasons, earning Spears awards from Young Hollywood Award, Young Artist Award and Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards. Spears also recorded the theme song for the show. Other roles include a cameo as Mandy Ferner in the ABC comedy sitcom series Miss Guided (in the episode "Hot Sub") and the voice of Goldilocks in the straight to DVD film Unstable Fables: Goldilocks & 3 Bears Show.
On December 20, 2007, in an interview with OK! magazine, Spears announced that she was pregnant by her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge. Nickelodeon issued a statement shortly after the announcement stating that the network respected Spears's decision to take responsibility and noting that its primary concern was for her well-being. Spears confirmed the couple's engagement in March 2008 after it was reported she was seen with a wedding ring. In May 2008, Spears and Aldridge moved back to Liberty, Mississippi, and purchased a house, with Spears stating they would raise their child there.
The announcement of Spears's pregnancy generated controversy, as the media was accused of using the story to "glamorize" teenage pregnancy.
Additional controversy surfaced because Spears was two years below the California age of consent, raising questions about her and Aldridge's age difference, and whether Aldridge could or would be charged with statutory rape (although Spears was neither from California nor living there). It was later confirmed that Aldridge was just under two years older than Spears, which meant that he could be charged only with a misdemeanor under California law, which has an exception for adults fewer than three years older than the minor.
On June 4, 2008, while in Amite County, Mississippi, the Spears family filed a complaint against Edwin Merrino, a paparazzo who they believed was following and stalking the couple. Merrino denied the allegation. He was released later in the day after posting a $1096 bond.
Spears gave birth to their daughter, Maddie Briann Aldridge, on June 19, 2008, at Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center in McComb. OK! magazine reportedly paid one million dollars for the first baby pictures for their July 10, 2008 issue. In September 2008, following the announcement that Bristol Palin was pregnant, it was reported that Spears had sent her burp cloths as a gift. Comparisons between the two cases were made.
Spears and Aldridge called off their engagement in March 2009, and Spears ended the relationship and moved out in February 2010. Spears and Aldridge reconciled in August 2010. In August 2010, it was rumored Spears was working on a country album in Nashville but Spears does not have a record deal.
Run
Jamie Lynn Spears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gas up drive thru, pick us up a margarita or two.
Two lanes, no phone, no time I gotta get back home.
You know I know you wanna need to fight, it'd be a crying shame to waste this night.
Run with me honey, I'll take on down to where I'm from.
Come with me honey, where everything is sacred and nothing gets done.
We got a whole town full of saints and sinners.
Be bad, be good, wait and see what's under this hood.
It's fast, it's strong.
Brace yourself you better hold on.
Hule drive, hog ride take you cross the river to the other side
Round here we don't fool around, ain't no moon to the night slowing down.
Run with me honey, I'll take you on down to where I'm from.
Come with me honey, where everything's sacred and nothing gets done.
We got a whole town full of saints and sinners.
Late to rise and early for dinner, either way the sun is gonna come so baby lets run.
Run with me honey
Run with me honey
Run with me honey
Run with me honey
You ain't got nothing better to do.
Run with me honey, take you on down to where I'm from, come with my honey, where everything's sacred and nothing gets done.
We got a whole town full of saints and sinners.
Late to rise and early for dinner.
Either way the sun is gonna come, dont you know you could be the one?
So baby lets run.
You know you wanna run.
Run, ooh oh ooh, run you know you wanna run.
The lyrics in Jamie Lynn Spears's song "Run" are very straightforward and simple. The song talks about a moment when the singer is bored and wants to have fun. She suggests going out and taking a ride with her partner with no particular destination in mind.

The idea behind the song is to let go, break free from routine, and enjoy the present moment. The singer wants to share a carefree attitude with her partner and hopes that he or she will find the same freedom she has found.

Jamie Lynn is so underrated. I love every song she released on this little ep and hope she has new music coming out soon. She's so good and people barely know about her anymore besides she was on Zoey 101. Amazing actress and amazing singer. Jamie Lynn you are a 🌟

Unfortunately, she and her ex-boyfriend weren't careful enough and got pregnant too early. It's harder to gain back fame (the positive kind) when you have a kid, especially when you have a kid at 16. Megan Fox became way less famous after she settled down and had kids too. I'm sure she loves her daughter though. A lot of the industry is about image. But yes, she has a beautiful voice.

+Hawaiian Paradise you can get pregnant even of you are careful. conceptives are not 100% effective. condoms need to be changed after 8 minutes and birth control can fail.

I LOVE COUNTRY SONG!!!
JAMIE LYNN IS SO AWESOME!!!
CountrySteve
Granted this is my husband s account but I want to leave a comment and not a big fan of country but she's actually really amazing. Her voice is like how country music should sound not like the cross mix of hip hop/pop/country. I also like her style as far as how she dresses She sounds like an individual and I think will be a refreshing change and bring country back to where it should be
Sian Rowan
Don't usually like this genre of music but I just LOVE her voice
eTheReal Deal

Jessica Keegan
Holy shit!!! Your voice is so addictive. I can't stop listening to you. How come I never hear you on the country radio in my hometown or CMT on my television. You definitely need to win a Grammy and then some... 👍🏻
Chiara Ventrella
