Britney Spears shocked fans across the world when it was revealed she had married her childhood friend Jason Alexander in Las Vegas in 2004.

However, pair's union lasted just 55 hours giving the newly-weds barely time to get over their hangovers. Back in 2004, Britney was 22 and still at the height of her powers.

She was arguably the most famous pop star in the world having just released her hugely successful fourth album In The Zone. She was gearing up to hit the road for her Onyx Hotel Tour when she headed to Las Vegas with friends for a New Year weekend
