Hi Guys, it’s Tetris Kelly for Music Weekly News. It’s Tuesday, October 17th. And what do we got? First, it’s Britney’s book. Britney is on the cover of People and sharing her story for the first time on her own terms, Britney’s new book arrives next Tuesday, but she talked to People ahead of the release, explaining what inspired her to write ‘The Woman in Me.’ She said, “Over the past 15 years or even at the start of my career, I sat back while people spoke about me and told my story for me. After getting out of my conservatorship, I was finally free to tell my story without consequences from the people in charge of my life.”

She even shared excerpts from the memoir, like when she shaved her head: “Shaving my head and acting out were my ways of pushing back. But under the conservatorship I was made to understand that those days were now over. I had to grow my hair out and get back into shape. I had to go to bed early and take whatever medication they told me to take.” How the conservatorship made her feel about performing: “As far as my passion for singing and dancing. It was almost a joke at that point.”

And even shared that she had an abortion while dating Justin Timberlake because he didn’t want to be a father, writing: “Justin definitely wasn’t happy about the pregnancy. He said we weren’t ready to have a baby in our lives that we were way too young.” People reached out to a rep for Justin but did not receive an immediate response. Britney will tell her story on her own terms when ‘The Woman In Me’ comes out on October 24.
