I guess one can say she helped popularize electropop in the mainstream but that's debatable.

Britney has greatly influenced music. Her wannabes like Rihanna, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Lindsay Lohan, Ashlee Simpson, Hilary Duff, Jessica Simpson, Mandy Moore, Christina Aguilera, Holly Valance, Cheryl Cole, Alexandra Stan, etc. own their careers to Britney.
And then there's the anti-Britneys such as Lorde, P!nk, Vanessa Carlton, Avril Lavigne, Michelle Branch who own their careers to Britney as well.
