Britney Spears is back in business. Even if she is not a real star that used to be, anyway she is present everyday on the news, moreover on our gossips.
Well, Britney lately was contacted by the PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) president Ingrid Newkirk offering her a receptionist position and the chance to raise $1000 for her favorite charity.

PETA chiefs were so impressed with the pop star's recent cameo appearance on US TV sitcom, How I Met Your Mother, they has offered troubled Britney Spears a job - as a receptionist.

However, PETA did indeed offer the troubled singer a job and invited Britney to have a brief stint working as a "virtual receptionist" for the group, in the light of her small part in the afore-mentioned sitcom. PETA president Ingrid Newkirk herself wrote to Britney stating that she would like the singer to experience the group's fight for animal rights first-hand. "You would see — from the inside — why we are so concerned about issues like fur and homeless dogs and cats," she wrote. "As a 'thank you' for your willingness to learn and help, we would donate $1000 to a children's charity."
However, let's not forget that Britney and PETA have quite a colorful history together – seeing how the fur-loving Brit (who also happens to have a lot more pets than she ought to) was targeted by PETA's many direct, often offensive and over-the-top campaigns in the past.

"We might have criticized you in the past for contributing to the dog overpopulation crisis and wearing real fur, but perhaps now that your own crisis has abated, a new day calls for a new relationship, a new outlook and a new understanding," Ingrid Newkirk added. There was no reply from Britney's camp, however the chances for reconciliation look pretty thin on the ground so far.
