Jessica and Nick, Carmen and Dave, now Britney and Kevin. Is there anything the new Mrs. Federline can't do? Not only has she sold millions of records, been a subject of media attention since her debut, and supercharged pop culture by rocking stages across the globe with her sexual dance moves and stellar sets, but now she wants to take on the small screen, too!

Being second to anyone is apparently not an option for Britney. On April 5 , the newlyweds of seven months, Kevin Federline and Britney Spears, announced that they will be doing a reality series documenting their relationship. The series will be aired on UPN in six parts that will take audiences through the events regarding the prematurely terminated Onyx Hotel tour, plans for their wedding day, and everything in between. Being a huge part of MTV programming since Britney's "...Baby One More Time" video, MTV will have rights to show rebroadcasts of the episodes.

So what will the series be like? Mrs. Federline, who is very excited about the endeavor, feels that this is her chance to show the real story behind all the tabloids this past year or so.

No more misconstrued images, tainted reports, or negative rumors-just pure Britney. Because the Federlines will be executive producers of their show, they can be sure nothing sends the wrong impression about them. It will include mostly home videos that will be narrated by Britney and Kevin to provide background and take audiences through the events. After her recent lash out in tabloids that was posted on her website, Britney is looking forward to telling her story from the other side, not through the lens of paparazzi cameras.

Will Britney and Kevin be the next "newlywed" stars of cable TV, or just another flop to add to the throngs of failed reality shows? Tune in this May and find out for yourself.
