Britney's Ex in Idol Top 24


This shocking news was on E last night. Robbie Carrico is Britney Spears ex-boyfriend. Apparently back in like 1999 they were on tour together (he was in some sort of boy band) and dated briefly. I guess the band didn't work out because he is on Idol.
Mtv says:
"Carrico's group, Boyz-N-Girlz United, opened for Spears on the ...Baby One More Time tour in the summer of '99. Their brief relationship became public when they attended the "Drive Me Crazy" premiere together that September. Aside from the Spears/Carrico connection, Boyz-N-Girlz United's only claim to fame is a terribly minor hit single "Messed Around," written and produced (along with several tracks on their album) by 'NSYNC's JC Chasez."
Carrico is also somehow related to Patsy Cline. Interesting. Idol didn't mention any of this juicy stuff on the air. We'll be watching Robbie a lot more closely now.
