Britney Spears is finally telling her story in her own words. The superstar’s personal life has become even more of a hot topic than ever before in recent years as she was finally freed from her conservatorship, but Spears herself has been critical of how her story’s been told. She’s repeatedly denounced the various documentaries that were made about her complex legal situation, and even called out her own sister Jamie Lynn Spears’ memoir for “lying and making money off of” her. Now, she’s ready to reveal the truth. Spears released her autobiography The Woman in Me on Oct. 24, and it sounds like there’s still more to come.

There had been rumors that Spears was working on a tell-all memoir for over a year before the announcement of The Woman in Me. Back at the start of 2022, reports surfaced claiming Spears had signed a $15 million contract with Simon & Schuster to publish her life story. The book’s release was then delayed, first because of a paper shortage, and then reportedly due to certain celebrities expressing their concern over what Spears might reveal. While those reports could just be gossip, the book definitely delivered when it comes to juicy deets.

Spears officially announced the book in an Instagram post on July 11, with a video that read, “My story on my terms, at last.” After it hit shelves, Spears shared another post teasing a second volume of The Woman in Me... then quickly deleted it.

The memoir hit shelves on Oct. 24. Later that week, Spears posted that a second volume would arrive sometime in 2024. “Humor is the cure to everything !!! Play on !!! Volume 2 will be released next year … get ready !!!,” the now-deleted post read.

Britney Spears’ The Woman In Me Details

The Woman in Me has a particular focus on Spears’ highly publicized legal battle to terminate the 13-year conservatorship she was involuntarily placed under in 2008.

“Britney’s compelling testimony in open court shook the world, changed laws, and showed her inspiring strength and bravery,” Jennifer Bergstrom, Gallery Books Senior Vice President and Publisher, told People when describing the memoir. “I have no doubt her memoir will have a similar impact — and will be the publishing event of the year. We couldn’t be more proud to help her share her story at last.”

Before its release, there were also reports that the book would be particularly harsh on Spears’ ex Justin Timberlake. A source told Us Weekly that the tell-all “goes after him hard,” and that “Justin’s not going to be happy” when it’s released.

Those reports proved to be true, as Spears shared various unsavory details about her relationship with Timberlake in the pages of her book.

Spears and Timberlake had an infamously public breakup in 2002, which resulted in Timberlake releasing “Cry Me a River.” Many fans believe the song about a cheating partner was Timberlake’s way of getting revenge on Spears.
