The Daily Telegraph (AU) reports:

POP princess Britney Spears has admitted for the first time that she is not a virgin, but claims the only person she has slept with is her former boyfriend Justin Timberlake.

Her comments to the August issue of the style magazine W contradict her previous insistence that she would wait till marriage to lose her virginity. “I’ve only slept with one person my whole life,” said Britney, 21.

“It was two years into my relationship with Justin, and I thought he was the one. But I was wrong!”

The star described the split from the N’ Sync heart-throb as “the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced”, and said that her love life has yet to recover. Britney also discussed her rumoured fling with Irish actor Colin Farrell, whom she accompanied to the premiere of his movie “The Recruit” in February.

“Yes, I kissed him. Of course, I did!” she said. “He’s the cutest, hottest thing in the world. But it was nothing serious.

“Seriously, I haven’t had a boy in a long time, and I’m really craving a kiss.”
