MTV's "Rock The Cradle" had one surprise appearance at the show's finale Thursday. Controversial Britney Spears showed up in the audience while the winner was being crowned.

Spears showed up at the final episode of the contest but not to perform. She stayed in the audience and probably cheered on the three finalists: Jess Blaze Snider (Dee Snider's son), Chloe Lattanzi (Olivia Newton-John's daughter), and Crosby Loggins (Kenny Loggin's son).
