Britney Spears has confirmed she’s writing a memoir.
The 40-year-old took to Instagram on Monday to share the exciting news with her 40.2million followers.
The singer wrote in a since-deleted post: “I’m writing a book at the moment and as it’s actually healing and therapeutic… it’s also hard bringing up past events in my life … I’ve never been able to express openly !!!”
She continued: “I can only imagine that I do sound childish but I was extremely young when those events took place … and addressing it now … I’m sure it seems irrelevant to most and I’m completely aware of that !!!”
“But instead of using my head … I’m using the intellectual approach as [my ex-boyfriend] Justin so respectfully did when he apologized to Janet [Jackson] and me … although he was never bullied or threatened by his family … he took the opportunity to apologize 20 years later !!!”
‘Timing is EVERYTHING !!! Good timing is the B*TCH!!! Anyway … I wanted to just let people KNOW I CARE !!! AND I’M SO SORRY !!! My mom and sister also did the ‘intellectual approach’ in indulgence by writing their own books as I couldn’t even get a cup of coffee or drive my car or really anything !!!”
Britney wrote: “I’m not the type of person to bring up UNCOMFORTABLE CONVERSATIONS well because it’s just NOT RESPECTFUL … but come on LET’S ACTUALLY TALK ABOUT IT !!!”
“As I got older the head powers in my conservatorship were literally unbelievable … Yes the security, the management and mainly my father who was NEVER AVAILABLE all felt like a CULT !!! I see now the greed and envy of men and the damage people of power can do !!!”
She also recalled several incidents which left her feeling powerless, including a trip to Target during the pandemic.
Britney drove an hour to the store but was instructed to remain inside the car by her father Jamie and ‘a lady’ as her security went in instead.
She wrote: “When I was in Louisiana during COVID-19, I went Target to pick things up at the store… I live in the sticks so it was an hour drive !!! When I finally got there I was told by a lady and my father that I could not get out of the car … my security got out of the car and I WAITED !!!! Hundreds of kids and adults going in !!!”
“I’ve never felt more like nothing in my life … of course they say now they never did that because they forgot !!!”
Britney also recalled when three of her childhood friends visited her in Las Vegas during her residency.
The songstress claimef her friends went to the spa but, as she was not allowed inside, she was forced to wait outside for an hour as they treated themselves to manicures, pedicures, and a bottle of champagne.
She wrote: They all go to a spa and I wait for an hour as they get their nails and toes done and get offered champagne… I wasn’t allowed to go to the spa so I sat outsie and waited … not only did they not even LOOK MY WAY OR ACKNOWLEDGE me or show any concern … they drank the whole bottle !!!”
It comes after Britney reportedly signed a $15milion deal for a tell-all memoir.
According to Page Six, the singer sealed a landmark deal with publishing house Simon & Schuster for a bombshell book about her career, her “Toxic” life and her family.
A source told the outlet that “the deal is one of the biggest of all time”, and that there was a bidding war between multiple publishers over Britney’s book.
