AceShowbiz - Jamie Lynn Spears cannot hold herself back from talking about her famous sister. The 32-year-old has shared a story about Britney Spears' "embarrassing" moment on "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" despite alleged warning from the singer.
In the latest episode of the U.K. reality show, the "Sweet Magnolias" actress recalled the time Britney lost a Grammy Award to Christina Aguilera. The "Lucky" songstress was nominated for best new artist award alongside Xtina at the 2000 Grammys and was a clear frontrunner to winning her first-ever Grammy.
"Want to hear about something really embarrassing that happened one time?" Jamie Lynn began her story about Britney. "It involves my sister. She was up for her first Grammy. It was her and Christina."
"Britney was clearly the bigger star of that year, she worked her a** off," the mother of two continued. "They had MTV camera crews at home watching out family, because it was like a no-brainer, she's winning. And she's there and she lost."
"She was at the awards show, she was at the Grammys. I was so young, I was probably like 8 or 7 or something. I just remember being like, 'This is crap,' " Jamie Lynn added. Defending her sister, she said, "Christina won it, and by the way remember Christina was wonderfully talented, but that year, I mean come on, let's be honest, 'It's Britney, b***h' like always."
Jamie Lynn further revealed Britney's reaction to the shocking loss, "She was really like, 'I don't ever want to go to the Grammys.' She was heartbroken about that because her whole life had been dedicated to winning that."
Prior to this, it was reported that Jamie Lynn received a warning from her sister against talking about Britney on "I'm a Celebrity". "Britney banned Jamie Lynn from talking about her," a source told Daily Mail. "She told her to, for once, make her money without feeling the need to use her sister's name to get a contract. For Jamie Lynn's entire career, every show, every appearance, every interview is Britney, Britney, Britney. It's just sad."
"Britney told Jamie Lynn when she was cast on 'I'm a Celebrity' that she does not want to hear her crying again about how she was always living in her sisters shadows. Jamie Lynn has played that record so many times already Britney just wants her to keep her name out of it," the so-called insider added.
