Britney Spears is doing her bit to help the community by teaching a dance class to young children, and selling a photographer of herself with the pupils to raise money for charity. Perhaps she should be helping herself before others.
The troubled 26-year old has regularly been spotted at the Millennium Dance Complex to teach 15 youngsters the art of dance.
One student, 5-year old Elissa Bouganim told People: "I like Britney. Today, first we were dancing slow, and then faster and faster... Then we did the fish-move and lots of other fun things."
As a thank you for being such a brilliant teacher, the little one gave Brit Brit a present: "It was a picture of [Peter Pan's] Tinkerbell. And she gave me a hug. Britney is nice. I want to dance with Britney all the time because it's so much fun."
Elissa’s mother was also quick to sing the dancer’s praises: "It's just amazing to watch Britney with the kids. Elissa won't stop dancing now, that's all she wants to do. Britney has really inspired her."
As an extra gesture of goodwill, the Toxic singer is selling a photo of herself with 10 of her pupils in order to raise money for a charity in Tennessee.
The snap will be given to a celebrity photo agency to syndicate worldwide with all profits going to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis which treats patients with cancer.
