Britney and Whitney fall in step The similarities between Whitney Houston and Britney Spears are stacking up, especially now that the younger star filed for divorce from Kevin Federline soon after Houston filed papers to end her marriage to Bobby Brown. And both women are set for musical comebacks in 2007. USA TODAY compares the divas: Husband troubles Britney: She took a lot of heat for hooking up in 2004 with Federline, an unknown backup dancer and aspiring rapper from Fresno whose ex-girlfriend was pregnant with his second child. After two years of marriage, Spears filed for divorce last week. Federline, 28, filed legal documents seeking custody of their two sons. Whitney: Not long after she and R&B singer Brown, 37, were married in 1992, his arrest file started growing with charges in Florida of driving under the influence and, later, various probation violations. In 2004, a judge ruled there was enough evidence for Brown to stand trial on battery charges stemming from a fight with Houston; charges were dropped. Post-split posture Britney: Just as divorce papers were being filed last week, Spears surfaced publicly around New York City with a hot new bod, a sleek blond bob and a sexy new look. Whitney: Her appearance at the Carousel of Hope Ball Oct. 28, just two weeks after filing divorce papers, had celeb watchers talking. The singer's blond style and figure-hugging Armani gown was reminiscent of her R&B glory days, before Houston became tabloid fodder and appeared on reality TV. Reality show Britney: In 2005, Britney & Kevin: Chaotic followed the couple through their quick romance and wedding plans, but fizzled out with viewers quickly losing interest after five episodes. Brit's prize moment: holding up her nose to the camera to look like a pig. Whitney: In 2005, Being Bobby Brown was planned as an outlet for Brown, but Houston was the draw. Whitney's prize moment: dinner-table chat about digestive bloat and having to "drop one." Stepmom Britney: Federline has two children with his ex-girlfriend Shar Jackson. Spears and Federline have two sons: Sean Preston, 13 months, and Jayden James, 2 months. Whitney: Brown had three children with two different women before meeting Houston and has twice been hauled into court for failing to pay child support. Houston and Brown have a daughter, Bobbi Kristina, 13. Divorce attorney Britney: She has hired bulldog Laura Wasser, whose former clients include Nick Lachey and Kiefer Sutherland. Whitney: She has hired Stephen Kolodny, who has represented Sean Connery, Kim Basinger and Barbra Streisand. Credits: PerezHilton.com
