double "s" on verb

Hey there,

Do I put "S" on both "verb" because of the 3rd person?

She looks likes Britney spears.

Thank You

Hi,

You probably meant "She looks like Britney Spears." (= she resembles Britney Spears, she's similar to Britney Spears).
If that's the meaning you wanted to convey, "like" is not a verb, here, but a preposition:
0
You would say "She likes Britney Spears", ('likes' here is the verb),
and "She looks like Britney Spears" ('looks' is the verb here).
