Personal clothing once worn by Brit are just a few of the items going up for bid in the Gotta Have It! online Rock & Roll Pop Art Auction.
Among the items is a T-shirt worn by the pop star long before two marriages, two kids and a divorce, back when she was a cast member on the "New Mickey Mouse Club."

The shirt, which Brit had given to her grandmother, is also signed by her former "MMC" co-stars, including Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Keri Russell.
"Something like that has never come up for auction before. We expect it to go for between $15,000 and $20,000," Gotta Have It! owner Ed Kosinski told People.

Other items up for bid from Britney include outfits worn onstage during her "Drive Me Crazy" and "Oops, I Did It Again" tours, the orange coat and pants she donned for the 2000 Billboard Music Awards and even a blue and white Santa dress she wore for a holiday Pepsi ad that same year.
