Jamie Lynn Spears to Star in Nickelodeon Comedy

Jamie Lynn Spears Next Superstar

Step aside, Hilary Duff, your replacement is here. Britney Spears' little sister is set to enroll in a boarding school comedy series being developed at Nickelodeon.

The kids cable channel is close to greenlighting a 13-episode order for the series starring 12-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears, who already serves as a cast member on the Nick sketch comedy show "All That." According to her Nickelodeon bio, Jamie Lynn won her role on "All That" by auditioning in the guise of an 84-year-old female bouncer - a character she based on her grandmother's personality.

Two big questions remain. How old does she have to get before it's acceptable for the media to drool over her and will she keep her clothes on or, like her big sis, have a problem doing so?
