Robbie Carrico’s past with Britney Spears

Robbie Carrico

Robbie Carrico, a Top 24 finalist on American Idol, has a past that includes a little time spent dating Britney Spears. That’s right, the Britney Spears.

Carrico has been said to have been a member of a boy band in his former days. The 26-year-old from Melbourne, Fla., was a member of Boys United With Girls. Back in 1999, the group toured in Europe with Spears. It was during that time Carrico and Spears were said to have spent a couple of months dating.

Maybe now that Justin Timberlake and Kevin Federline and back out of the picture, Carrico and Spears will reunite. Of course, that may not be a good career move for either of them at this point.
