Britney Spears says her extraordinary life can be extremely ordinary.
In the December issue of Lucky, the pop star talks about having game nights with her boys, using products like Clearasil and Pantene, and preferring to wear sweats.
“I work out. I swim. I play with the kids, I cook and I garden,” says Spears, describing her habits outside of the spotlight. “We play Connect Four. We play Candy Land. Last night we read The Night Pirates.”
It’s a lifestyle that fiance Jason Trawick seems more than happy to share, with Spears saying his “sweet” personality sets him apart from past loves.
“He says he doesn’t mind that I sit around in sweats all the time,” reveals the singer.
Spears’ sons — 6-year-old Jayden and 7-year-old Sean – are becoming more aware of the double life she leads, although they’re still a bit confused about what exactly their mom does.

She explains, “They’re in the middle right now of trying to figure it out. They try to figure out where I go when I go to film ‘X Factor.’ They’re like, ‘Mommy’s going off to be a superhero.’”
“And then I get back, and they just see me as Mommy,” she continues. “And then when I’m back working on the show, they say, ‘Oh, Mommy’s a superhero again!’”
But what if they want to follow in their mother’s very public line of work?
“If there was something they really wanted to do and were passionate about, I’d encourage them to follow their dreams,” says Spears. “But I’d also be there behind the curtain saying, ‘No, don’t go out there.’ ”
The singer explains, “As a child, when you think of being a superstar someday, you picture it like a dream world”
“There is a part of it that’s like what I pictured, but a lot of work goes into what I do,” continues Spears. “Great things don’t come easy.”
Although being famous does have its perks, she admits.
She tells the magazine, “I get, like, these giant boxes of lip gloss and nail polish, and it’s like candy.”
Spears’ full interview will hit newsstands on November 6.
