Viral TikToker Wants In On Developing Britney Spears Biopic
Britney Spears
Would Be ‘Criminal’ Not To Cast Me in Your Biopic!!!
… Viral TikToker Says
Published
TMZ.com
A viral TikToker is ready to embrace the Hollywood ‘Circus’ — saying she hopes to snag the attention of director Jon M. Chu before he casts the lucky lady who will play Britney Spears in her highly anticipated biopic.
Kylie Schultz — an Ithaca College senior and rising social media star — is throwing her hat into the ring after Chu has denied chatter that Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, and Millie Bobby Brown are currently auditioning … saying she’s ready to play the Princess of Pop.
Kylie tells TMZ she was born for the role — not only because she’s been studying theater, acting and song her whole life, but also ’cause she understands Brit on a deeper level — she too is a middle child raised by a blue collar fam in a rural area.
Kylie’s steadily growing TikTok fanbase is screaming “Gimme More” — with 75,000 followers rooting her on as she cosplays Britney in popular dancing videos … morphing more into the “Toxic” hitmaker as each day passes.
TMZ.com
Kylie — who’s nicknamed herself the “Britney Spears Biopic Girl” — hasn’t gotten in touch with Jon or Britney’s team about her desire to audition for the role … but, she’s currently living in Los Angeles for an internship with Sony and using her few months in LaLa Land to make connections and chase the dream.
Bottom line … she knows she’s not a big name, but thinks she can handle the role with such care that Britney and Jon will “Scream & Shout” when they see her audition.
TMZ reached out to Britney’s rep for comment and didn’t hear back.

Who knows … perhaps there’s a star in the making with Kylie.
Stay tuned …
