Britney Spears released her new book, “The Woman in Me”, earlier this year on October 24. Her memoir goes into detail about her fame and how it affected how she lived. It also talked about how her life was before fame.
The memoir is 275 pages long and was also released as an audiobook that is narrated by actress Michelle Williams. The book features a wild assortment of revelations that touched on Spears’ career, family, conservatorship, and high profile relationships.
According to the book’s publisher, Gallery Books (a division of Simon and Schuster), Spears was quoted saying, “I poured my heart and soul into my memoir, and I am grateful to my fans and readers around the world for their unwavering support.”
The publishers had also said the book has gone back to the press for a fourth printing of the book, bringing the total number of hardcover copies in print to more than 1.4 million. These sale figures represent the high demand to hear Spears’ side of her robustly publicized to fight to break out of her 13-year conservatorship.
On Amazon.com, “The Woman in Me” was the number one book on the list of most read and sold non-fiction titles before actor Matthew Perry’s memoir “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing” took the spot following his death on October 28, 2023.
Spears landed the massive publishing deal for a tell-all last February, just a few months after her conservatorship was terminated. Simon and Schuster acquired the rights to Spears’ new book last year after a bidding war that involved multiple publishers through the financial terms of the transaction have not been repealed. An individual familiar with Spears told Variety the deal is “record-breaking.” Reports, at the time, said that the agreement was worth as much as $15 million.
Britney spears’ book will continue to grow in fame due to it revealing, for the first time, the difficult journey of one of the greatest performers in pop music history’s life.
