However as she settled into camp this evening, viewers wouldn’t know it from Jamie’s words.
As she got to know This Morning presenter Josie Gibson, Jamie knocked back all opportunities to name drop her famous sibling.
Josie asked Jamie Lynn: “Who got you into music then?”
Jamie Lynn told her: “I’ve always kind of been into music, you know what I mean?”
Not one to give up easily, Josie asked: “Very musical family, aren’t you?”
But again Jamie Lynn refused to talk about the real reason she’s famous, replying: “Yeah.”
Josie then asked: “Was your grandma into it?” with Jamie Lynn replying: “My mum played the piano a lot.”
Not getting an answer, Josie gave up and Jamie Lynn asked her about her own career.

“I’m a TV presenter,” Josie said, adding: “I work on this show called This Morning. It’s so fun, it’s so good.”
But fans are cringing over Jamie Lynn’s refusal to talk about her big sister.
One wrote: “Not jamie lynn acting as if britney doesn’t exist #ImACeleb.”
A second said: “LOL JAMIE WHY ARE YOU LYING.”
Another added: “Josie asking Jamie-Lynn ‘who got you in to music then.”
Meanwhile while Jamie Lynn was keeping mum on Britney’s name, it didn’t stop her fellow campmates.
Nick Pickard confessed: “I had no idea when I woke up this morning I’d be skydiving with Britney Spears’s sister.
“I mean, come on… I don’t think she’s looking forward to it too much. I think she’s a bit apprehensive, as is Marvin.”
And later in camp EastEnders star Danielle Harold was starstruck saying: “It’s just mad, I’m with Britney Spears’s sister.
“I used to watch Zoey 101 when I come home from school. So it was a bit weird, a bit random.”
