Anybody else find it disturbing how she was treated as an adult when she was a child, then treated like a child while she was an adult by the very people she was supporting? ...The entertainment industry, her family, and even employees SHE PAID! I pray that Britney finds the love, peace, and joy she's been searching for.
I believe this 💯 💯 💯 ! Well said. I still think thats the case, to this day! He never "made" it so he had to use her, judt like everyone shes ever been close to. I really feel for britney even more :'(
I really really really hope her kids see how amazing of a person she is, and how scummy their dad is. And Britney, if you ever come across this comment, please believe that if they are brainwashed against you by your scum ex now, they WILL grow up and know that you were the good one in the end. You will get your just desserts, in the end! And we are all here to support you. I am a victim of abuse too and I back you 1000%! Victims of abuse stand by you because we see ourselves in you. Also, does anyone know if she got a prenup with her current husband? Please tell me she got a prenup? I will be so distraught for her if their relationship fails, and he is able to hurt her like Federline did.
The fact that Justin dedicated cry me a river to her right after cheating on her and pressuring her to abort her child which left her with trauma you cannot heal from is INSANE, HE IS THE DEVIL
@@sideshowmobShe wanted to keep the baby and was taken aback by the fact that he didn’t want a child with her at all in that period of time. His reaction to her pregnancy was shocking but she did mention if she did what he wanted and agreed it may not be the best time then they could have one later in hopes of keeping the relationship together because she didn’t want to upset him. Yes she made the decision but that was her logic behind the decision which she ultimately clearly regrets. If she wasn’t taking him into consideration she would’ve kept that baby.
@@sideshowmob you're such an airhead, honestly. Do you not understand how easy it is to manipulate someone into making a choice which they wouldn't even choose themselves without any influence especially considering how young Britney was and how much in love she was with Justin! He knew he had a lot of control over her and he used it to his advantage. You can tell what kind of person he is simply by the fact that he released cry me a river after their break up and made her look like a horrible person when he was the one cheating all the time and NOT supporting her pregnancy of HIS child. She was already vulnerable and he knew that. She didn't want to lose him so she decided against the baby because HE didn't want it but she did. Many women experience this kind of situation, young women, mostly teenage girls experience it with boys pressuring them into having s3x using "don't you love me? I have to break up with you if you don't want to sleep with me. You make me feel rejected. Just say you hate me." gaslighting and guilt tripping them into doing it and the same boys say "I don't want the baby, if you want it, you have to raise it on your own. It's either me or the baby. Don't you love me?" when they grow older.
I had no idea that Britney's grandfather sent her grandmother to an asylum where she received lithium. Then, Britney's father (following this example) did the same thing to her...
As a 90s kid who loved Brittney and now as a 36 yr old woman with 5 kids, I don’t blame her one bit for the way she acted. Don’t fuck with a good mom and her babies this is what you will get
On the chapter of her describing her conservatorship, I actually almost started crying. Like her family and every around her really did her so wrongly and continue to just walk around like they’re innocent . Ahem, Kevin. Ahem, Jamie.
@@bbearsmama her main family no longer has access to her money after the conservatorship was ended. her father and mother are low key now but last time pictures were took of her father he didn’t look too well. Jamie Lynn was not too long ago anticipating and promoting the Zoey 101 reboot. Kevin Federline still is receiving thousands from her bcuz of child support and recently moved their sons to Hawaii with him.
I share your thinly veiled disgust at her family, the media and the men that used and abused her. I broke down crying while listening to the audio book on the freeway. I just want her to find peace, unconditional love and all of it which she MORE than deserves.
Actually… she was pretty much an Angel. I mean she was a normal freaking person she didn’t do terrible things. When you say “she was no Angel” it makes it sound like she did horrible things. She didn’t do anything remotely bad… (shaving her head and acting out really doesn’t count imo… normal 14 year olds still do much worse and she was sweet and kind for years and years and took so much abuse.)
I think it goes to show how much the discussion around mental health has evolved. When Britney was having a mental breakdown in the mid 2000's it was seen as funny and kind of fodder to discuss but now almost everyone agress that making fun of someone who is clearly going through something personally is a scummy thing to do. I always try to remember now when I see someone acting strangely or looking in a horrible state that I know nothing about what's going on in their mind or behind the scenes.
I watched every bit of her career unfold in real time( I’m a couple years younger than B and was a fan from the start). It was even more intense and disturbing to read her experience in her own words. She was an amazing entertainer but she was destroyed by fame and the horrible people surrounding her. I hope she is able to be free now.
Wait until you read the book,I watched her on MMC and everything she went thru with the paps ect. I actually cried. People have ALWAYS bullied B. Her sister didn't grow up poor and have an abusive childhood like Britney and her brother did. JL is just mad she's not getting Britney money anymore.

Girl, I'm pushing 37, but I just have to say that I love your personality so much.. this made me want to actually buy her book, not gonna lie. I *consciously* lived through Baby One More Time and the rest, so I was already invested because... nostalgia and whatnot. I didn't know much about her adult life, but wow. She's been through some sh*t.. thank you for this video, Paige. Looking forward to reading her memoir myself.
Back in 2021 I had an incomplete miscarriage (baby had no heartbeat) and in order to have a D&C I had to go to the ER and have pills inserted in me (yeah I know, TMI). The pain -both emotional and physical, the fever, the whole experience were really traumatic. I never felt so hopeless and so alone in my life. And I was in an ER, with people around me, my fiancee and our son waiting at home... I can't imagine what Britney went through all alone, it's hesrtbreaking 💔
I was a child/teen during a lot of Britney‘s career up to and including the 2007 incident and realizing she would’ve been 18 or 19 when Timberlake forced her to abort only to then abandon, betray and outright MOCK HER in front of the world makes me sick
He already disabled all his Instagram comments and scheduled an "emergency trip" I believe. Just want to add that he basically got off scot-free for the Super Bowl incident - where Janet Jackson's career was ruined - while JT was just as culpable (if not more?)
This is the correct amount of sass for what Britney went through her whole life. What an extremely cathartic review to listen to. Thank you for your service.
I didn't get it then and I don't get it now. What is so shocking in a woman shaving her head? Btw, I'm not famous and when I had my hair cut really short - people were freaking out,too. I had strangers come up to me telling me I would never get a husband and neighbours shocked that I had "destroyed my beauty" .... Like, suddenly, my appearance was everybody's business. And it was in 2014...
I had to shave my head last year to prep for surgery. The barber asked me 10x if I was sure. The hairdresser wouldn't do it. And I did it for medical reasons.
“Who’s counting?… I am. I’m counting. I’m always counting” This is the first video I’ve seen of you and I am obsessed. I love the way you recapped the book. Thank you for your service 🙃
Interesting. While I was in a mental facility when I was 15 for wanting to off myself my mother brought all my journals and through them all on the table in front of strangers. It was awful. Britney is so relatable.
Media culture was so mean back then. It’s weird to say social media is actually better. even though it’s crazy too. It’s more trolls and not magazine editors & news anchors.
I remember perfectly the years when they were together, when they broke up. I'm so sad, she never had an opportunity to say the the truth. Only in the music video Everytime, we could see some truth about relationship, but it was rather confusing. I had no idea that he was a cheater. Britney had her best years, best performances that years. I'm a slave for you, Boys are so iconic. Still she never spoken up. I really think that she was not allowed to talk about this or something like this related to the music industry. I've never really bought this virginity theme, I've always thought it was kind of disguisting to discuss this publicly and surely it was a huge pressure on her. When Justin's Cry me a river was out, it was obvious that he blames her and calls her a cheater but even back then I thought that it was brutal to make a song about this, and make it a lead single, but now when the truth has come out, I'm outraged!!!!!!
The commentary is on point. Your jokes helped to soften hearing the heartbreaking stories in the book. Praying for Britney and best of luck to you as well! ❤
I never understood why her virginity was such a huge subject. It's no one's business! I remember when she became big, I was in my early 20's and I remember thinking 'what's wrong with people?!?! This poor girl is going to be messed up!'.
26:42 I remember that interview. I remember thinking why did they put her on the show. Unfortunately they did have her in all the teeny magazines and they had in every article how she was saving herself for marriage. Purity culture was a big deal back them. This was at the time when every teen movie and show was obsessed with losing your virginity.
Ladies don't do anything for love . Don't put yourself in a situation where you have to choose. Praying Brittney finds herself . She deserves better. I will definitely buy her book. Great review. Thank you.
I was so shocked hearing she was 16 when filming hit me baby one more time. The producers needs to be in jail, cuz I am not comfortable with how they mad that MV
Thank you so much for making this video. The corporate establishment that has abused Britney Spears, does not want anything in her book to be discussed. And it's always helpful when the younger generations refuse to submit to the establishment, when it comes to these kinds of things. Thank you.
Honestly I can somewhat relate to Britney, shitty experience in love, family thinking I’m evil, people pleaser etc. I hope I can get my hands on her book but it’s kind of difficult to get a copy where in Mexico lol, struggles of living in a small town.
It's honestly disgusting how paps were going after Britney and her two kids but not one person asked where said father was nor why Britney had no trusted family or friends to baby sit while she went out for a few hours here and there. Disgusting.
Love it! I love that your generation cares about Britney. She is a survivor. It’s also cute you don’t know Colin Farrell 😂 He is an Irish actor and bad boy. Maybe not anymore 😂
I'm so happy she got to get some of that 😅 atleast he was up front to her about what the relationship was u kno unlike all the other pos men that's used her she was with him during his sexy ass time 😆 he was filming swat I think
@@bridykes9986 it sounds like he wound up with major addiction, so I’m glad it was only a fling. He is making an acting comeback now. They were both the hottest stars at that time! I’m a few years older than Britney. People older than her definitely admired her, she was so professional and nature. It blew me away and inspired me. I’m glad she had fun, she deserved it! Her work ethic was insane before, not much time for fun.
The management didn’t give the impression of her virginity. Spears told RollingStone Magazine in a global interview that she was waiting til marriage and that image launches her innocent brand that kind of matched her sweet personality. The sweetness and passive nature we now know comes from growing up in a stressful home environment. She’s a people pleaser because she wants good friendly attention and validation.
This was a good breakdown! As a millennial, it was shocking to learn some of the details behind huge events that played out in the media. I’m glad she is finally telling her story!
The press should say their apologies to Britney, LiLo, Amanda, Paris, Demi, Miley, Tonya Harding, Monica Lewinsky, Nancy Kerrigan, Janet Jackson, Winona Ryder, Shannen Doherty, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, etc. You listening, Vince McMahon, Les Moonves, Mortimer Zuckerman, Sean McManus, Rupert Murdoch, Ted Turner, Rob Hamilton, Bonnie Hammer, etc.? APOLOGIZE TO BRITNEY NOW MEDIA DAMMIT!
People that did her dirty,their KARMA is coming. I am SO Happy Britney is Happy. If her family still to this day don't support her, she got family here. Period 💖
Love how you described everything, without giving away too much detail of how britney wrote it in the book. This makes me want to buy the book to read it in britneys voice.
Telling the truth like she did and putting it all out there is the best thing she can do for her healing. I'm so sorry this happened to suck a sweet soul.
The thing is.. That really happened. The media and the marketing around her did that. I was 10, 11 when she came out and I remember that virgin vibe idea was torned when the cheating rumors came out.. :/ poor britney
36:21 also she was a really young mother, I think about 25. She goes to one party with her peers and has a few drinks while her babies are at home in the care of her mother and the media tries to picture her as an alcoholic.... she was doing well being a young mother while trying to maintain a normal mid twenties life and got villainized for it. I feel so bad for her...
12:30 Dude I REMEMBER the “Britney is bad for the children” rhetoric when I was a kid and now I’m 30yr and realized years ago she was 16 in the One More Time video where she’s dressed like a “sexy schoolgirl”. Alarm bells absolutely should have rung but not at Britney herself, at the fucking label and whatever grown as adult man was making/signing off on the decisions to USE SEX TO SELL A CHILD TO THE WORLD I was born in 1993 with a sister 4yr older and my mom deemed Britney’s singing career “inappropriate for us” when we became fans at 9-10yr and 5-6yr in 1999 When she became too big of a name to not hear/see on radio/tv/grocery store magazines, it became somewhat of a compromise(imo just valid parenting)that while we may enjoy listening to the songs and watching her perform, not every performance/video/lyric was meant/ok for young children even if we don’t get/see why So she let us be fans and enjoy her music but absolutely kept us a bit distanced from the real world details of Britney and had done the same with Spice Girls(core memory of being told no on buying a Spice Girls lolipop that came with a Spice Girls sticker)
I really enjoyed Britney’s book and her finally being allowed tell her story. But the book wasn’t quite finished yet as we thought, was it? What we thought what could have been a happy ending of sorts, new turn of events have arrived. Need I say it…? Hesam (Sam) Asghari. When will Britney find a mature honest to goodness loving life partner and distract her from posting these “unusually creative” IG photos? Unfortunately, it seems like her life’s saga hasn’t altered from the path that she’s sadly familiar with even though her blessed heart is now free free. We long for this talented woman to deservingly find that happy ending we all hope for her. I hope it finds Britney and welcomes her with arms wide open. 🙏🏼💗
She always makes terrible choices in men then is surprised when it turns out they were just using her, when everyone and their dog could see it from a mile.
28:59 Her reality show, where she's getting married was so disturbing. I was 21 at the time and thought she was high, on drugs or something to want to be with him. Her dad is visibly pissed she was marrying him.
As a pre-teen I loved Britney, Christina, N’SYNC and Backstreet Boys. Justin always scared me though. I didn’t like looking at his pictures on the CD insert. 😅
Apparently there are three different copies of the book, but apart from the inside cover and the spine of the book I don't know what the differences are. Has anyone been able to find out please? 💖
I am a couple of years younger than Britney and she became famous when I was in high school. Her kind of music was not exactly my cup of tea at all and while I didn't particularly like her also didn't dislike her at all. For me she was just another singer…I remember a few years later she was constantly on the tabloids, which I found it was outrageous and remember I felt hurt inside because she was always being portraided as a lunatic, an idiot, a sl*t, a bad mother, a cheating girlfriend, insane, violent and stupid. I remember when the umbrella thing happened and they posted a very unflattering picture of her in the newspaper I actually started crying because I felt very sorry for her and made me wonder about all the things she didn't have in life (like a supporting family or stability). The conservatorship was soooooo clearly about her money that makes me wonder what kind of judges we have ruling this country. What more? Her father, of course, telling the media it was for her own good and her sister saying that if it wasn't for the conservatorship she wouldn't be alive today. I feel sorry for her. I still don't care about her music but I can't help but admiring her: she's still here and never gave up, even though she spent 13 years *in prison* unable to enjoy her life and even seeing her kids growing up. Damn it… I just wish her the best. I hope she'll fulfill every single dream she has and finds nothing but happiness and joy in what's left of her life. If she ever comes singing near me I'll defitinely go see her, not for her music, but for her. She deserves literally everything.
The abortion was a very sad and traumatic moment for her but I think it's really better she didn't have a child with Timberlake in the end. She wouldn't have been happy with this awful cheater and would have been linked to him forever.
What I gleaned was that her father treated her like a cash cow and when she didn't do what he wanted, he forced her into facilities and then treated her like a show horse. That's HER money; she worked her ass off for it.
Easiers said then done to stand up to realizing you have a toxic parent that you still love... She had multiple jobs as a child including perfecting her outer narrative describing her father and family dynamics. I see her exploited for others greed and control in the worst ways possible.
He had a sex tape. I can't remember if that was before or after Britney but it was after Paris Hilton's. Ha ha I just found this from back in the day: th-cam.com/video/7cwj6PodJDE/w-d-xo.html
Did you just say you don't know who is Colin Farrell????!!!! Girl, you googled the early 2000s song era vibe, but didn't come across Colin Farrell?? Come on now, go quickly and rectify this! He's a sweetie and an incredibly talented and major movie star. I'm pretty certain his latest movie was nominated for an Oscar last year. I can't believe Brit had a fling with him....huhuhu.
I think that we doesnt understand that behind this is a lot of people, team, producers...forcing the spear family to act like that. When her sister get pregnant...they take her to a secret place and try to make her do an abortion. So, i think that she learn about the experience of britney...however...people dont undertand the importance of the team pressure (lou tylor was the poopy master) a lot of hands There...family sale her to the wolf just for money...0 values and family loyalty and protection. Of course the family make a lot of mistakes...however...the team...has an important roll here...and is important to see that...because everyone is getting a cancelation but the real people that manipulate this situation are...like normal...without getting their karma
13:20 that’s not true though… because part of abuse is also thinking you owe your abusers. So you probably wouldn’t tell him too bad… because abuse is a type of mind control.
I've always thought up to now that Justin was the victim, and it was the image he gave with that song "cry me a river" certainly. Very sad everything she had to go through. 🥲Thanks to this video for clarifying information and supporting Britney as person🙏 ☺
she prob would been better off if her and her friend got to stay married. even if they broke up later it would have been good for her to leave that mess.
Anybody else find it disturbing how she was treated as an adult when she was a child, then treated like a child while she was an adult by the very people she was supporting? ...The entertainment industry, her family, and even employees SHE PAID!
I pray that Britney finds the love, peace, and joy she's been searching for.
I agree with you.
Well said! I just finished the book and I am just SHOCKED by what her family got away with! They abused and used her.
100% insanity! wtf is wrong with people?!??
35:00 he wanted full custody so that she would have to pay HIM child support. Not for the kids… for the money. Typical.
I believe this 💯 💯 💯 ! Well said. I still think thats the case, to this day! He never "made" it so he had to use her, judt like everyone shes ever been close to. I really feel for britney even more :'(
Hey girl 👋🏾

Britney was no angel and definitely made mistakes, but she did not deserve what happened to her!!
Finally a statement I can get behind
Britney never pretended to be a perfect angel. She was only a genuine human and treated like punching bag for it. Lame backhanded comment.
Actually… she was pretty much an Angel. I mean she was a normal freaking person she didn’t do terrible things. When you say “she was no Angel” it makes it sound like she did horrible things.

I did the same and everyone compared me to Britney Spears… and basically asking me if I was crazy
I had to shave my head last year to prep for surgery. The barber asked me 10x if I was sure. The hairdresser wouldn't do it. And I did it for medical reasons.
“Who’s counting?…
I am. I’m counting. I’m always counting”
This is the first video I’ve seen of you and I am obsessed. I love the way you recapped the book. Thank you for your service 🙃
Interesting. While I was in a mental facility when I was 15 for wanting to off myself my mother brought all my journals and through them all on the table in front of strangers. It was awful. Britney is so relatable.
I only ask for JAIL for everyone and for justice to be done.
Media culture was so mean back then. It’s weird to say social media is actually better. even though it’s crazy too. It’s more trolls and not magazine editors & news anchors.
A LOT of women these days speak back to the media when they ask sexist questions
@@ultravioletpisces3666 That is so awesome!
I remember perfectly the years when they were together, when they broke up. I'm so sad, she never had an opportunity to say the the truth. Only in the music video Everytime, we could see some truth about relationship, but it was rather confusing. I had no idea that he was a cheater. Britney had her best years, best performances that years. I'm a slave for you, Boys are so iconic. Still she never spoken up. I really think that she was not allowed to talk about this or something like this related to the music industry. I've never really bought this virginity theme, I've always thought it was kind of disguisting to discuss this publicly and surely it was a huge pressure on her. When Justin's Cry me a river was out, it was obvious that he blames her and calls her a cheater but even back then I thought that it was brutal to make a song about this, and make it a lead single, but now when the truth has come out, I'm outraged!!!!!!
i’m also OUTRAGED
The commentary is on point. Your jokes helped to soften hearing the heartbreaking stories in the book. Praying for Britney and best of luck to you as well! ❤
35:00 I think he wanted full custody to continue to get money off of her 🤷 ,
I never understood why her virginity was such a huge subject. It's no one's business! I remember when she became big, I was in my early 20's and I remember thinking 'what's wrong with people?!?! This poor girl is going to be messed up!'.
26:42 I remember that interview. I remember thinking why did they put her on the show. Unfortunately they did have her in all the teeny magazines and they had in every article how she was saving herself for marriage. Purity culture was a big deal back them. This was at the time when every teen movie and show was obsessed with losing your virginity.
Ladies don't do anything for love . Don't put yourself in a situation where you have to choose. Praying Brittney finds herself . She deserves better. I will definitely buy her book. Great review. Thank you.
Justin was so bad to Britney, when she was at the peak of her beauty and loved him with all her heart. He didn't deserve Britney.
He screwed up bad. She would've loved him so hard and created a family for him.
Omg i could listen you for hours!! I was trying new crochet stitches while listening to you give the overview of the book!
I found your channel last night from crocheting and now I'm watching this entire thing. LOVE IT!
Only two minutes in and I already feel so deep for Britney’s grandma and Britney herself cause I KNOW that bullshit from her grandpa trickled down
I was so shocked hearing she was 16 when filming hit me baby one more time. The producers needs to be in jail, cuz I am not comfortable with how they mad that MV
My older brother was in his 30s when that came out, and was shocked she was the same age as me. He said she was going to get lots of bad attention.
Thank you so much for making this video.
The corporate establishment that has abused Britney Spears, does not want anything in her book to be discussed.
And it's always helpful when the younger generations refuse to submit to the establishment, when it comes to these kinds of things.
Thank you.
Back in the 90s, it was common for older guys to have much younger gfs.. senior guys with freshmen. I’m glad things have changed.
It still is
Now old men 40+ with 20.somethings.
Honestly I can somewhat relate to Britney, shitty experience in love, family thinking I’m evil, people pleaser etc.
I hope I can get my hands on her book but it’s kind of difficult to get a copy where in Mexico lol, struggles of living in a small town.
I just finished her book today and I'm so heartbroken for her :( I hope she is okay now and living how she wants.
Let's pray for her. I MEAN IT
17:30 I was sitting at a stream reading this part and actually fucking burst out laughing at the ABSURDITY of Justin fucking StinkerLame
It's honestly disgusting how paps were going after Britney and her two kids but not one person asked where said father was nor why Britney had no trusted family or friends to baby sit while she went out for a few hours here and there. Disgusting.
Love it! I love that your generation cares about Britney. She is a survivor. It’s also cute you don’t know Colin Farrell 😂 He is an Irish actor and bad boy. Maybe not anymore 😂
cute? simp 🤮
I'm so happy she got to get some of that 😅 atleast he was up front to her about what the relationship was u kno unlike all the other pos men that's used her she was with him during his sexy ass time 😆 he was filming swat I think
@@bridykes9986 it sounds like he wound up with major addiction, so I’m glad it was only a fling. He is making an acting comeback now. They were both the hottest stars at that time! I’m a few years older than Britney. People older than her definitely admired her, she was so professional and nature. It blew me away and inspired me. I’m glad she had fun, she deserved it! Her work ethic was insane before, not much time for fun.
The management didn’t give the impression of her virginity. Spears told RollingStone Magazine in a global interview that she was waiting til marriage and that image launches her innocent brand that kind of matched her sweet personality. The sweetness and passive nature we now know comes from growing up in a stressful home environment. She’s a people pleaser because she wants good friendly attention and validation.
Omg I loved this video sm THE WAY U WERE EXPLAINING EVERYTHING WAS SO ENTERTAINING LIKE A GOSSIP SESSION W UR BSFF
Justin is a full on cheater and it's shocking how he defamed her!!! 😳
He used the he'll out-of her look what he did to Janet Jackson also
It's not a curse, it's intergenerational trauma. Welcome to the South, y'all! 😭
After rewatching her music videos I’ve just realised that Justin is the Womaniser. She even sings about Dadio who drinks too much… The Cherry ..
Ohhhh
This was a good breakdown! As a millennial, it was shocking to learn some of the details behind huge events that played out in the media. I’m glad she is finally telling her story!
I got a beer for mowing the lawn when I was a teen. I drank it on the porch in the sun.
You summed the book up perfectly! Great job 👏
The press should say their apologies to Britney, LiLo, Amanda, Paris, Demi, Miley, Tonya Harding, Monica Lewinsky, Nancy Kerrigan, Janet Jackson, Winona Ryder, Shannen Doherty, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, etc. You listening, Vince McMahon, Les Moonves, Mortimer Zuckerman, Sean McManus, Rupert Murdoch, Ted Turner, Rob Hamilton, Bonnie Hammer, etc.?
APOLOGIZE TO BRITNEY NOW MEDIA DAMMIT!
She tried to tell us when she released “Lucky” ❤
People that did her dirty,their KARMA is coming. I am SO Happy Britney is Happy. If her family still to this day don't support her, she got family here. Period 💖
Love how you described everything, without giving away too much detail of how britney wrote it in the book. This makes me want to buy the book to read it in britneys voice.
Omg, "not my circus, not my monkeys" had me cracking up. 🤣 I loved this summary. I won't have a chance to read it for a bit, so this was great.
Telling the truth like she did and putting it all out there is the best thing she can do for her healing. I'm so sorry this happened to suck a sweet soul.
The thing is.. That really happened. The media and the marketing around her did that. I was 10, 11 when she came out and I remember that virgin vibe idea was torned when the cheating rumors came out.. :/ poor britney
36:21 also she was a really young mother, I think about 25. She goes to one party with her peers and has a few drinks while her babies are at home in the care of her mother and the media tries to picture her as an alcoholic.... she was doing well being a young mother while trying to maintain a normal mid twenties life and got villainized for it. I feel so bad for her...
12:30 Dude I REMEMBER the “Britney is bad for the children” rhetoric when I was a kid and now I’m 30yr and realized years ago she was 16 in the One More Time video where she’s dressed like a “sexy schoolgirl”. Alarm bells absolutely should have rung but not at Britney herself, at the fucking label and whatever grown as adult man was making/signing off on the decisions to USE SEX TO SELL A CHILD TO THE WORLD
I was born in 1993 with a sister 4yr older and my mom deemed Britney’s singing career “inappropriate for us” when we became fans at 9-10yr and 5-6yr in 1999
When she became too big of a name to not hear/see on radio/tv/grocery store magazines, it became somewhat of a compromise(imo just valid parenting)that while we may enjoy listening to the songs and watching her perform, not every performance/video/lyric was meant/ok for young children even if we don’t get/see why
So she let us be fans and enjoy her music but absolutely kept us a bit distanced from the real world details of Britney and had done the same with Spice Girls(core memory of being told no on buying a Spice Girls lolipop that came with a Spice Girls sticker)
I just finished reading it and I LOVE IT❤😢Gonna re-read it pretty soon
Not knowing who Colin Farrel is blows my mind. He was such an 'it' bad boy in the 00s.
When it got to talking about the conservatorship while reading it I was fuming. They’re in humane people to do this to their own child
My heart is breaking😢 Sorry Britney
I enjoyed listening to your overview. You made me laugh X
Pamela Anderson Documentary now this. These women rock. Once you find God your life will never be the same.
I really enjoyed Britney’s book and her finally being allowed tell her story. But the book wasn’t quite finished yet as we thought, was it? What we thought what could have been a happy ending of sorts, new turn of events have arrived. Need I say it…? Hesam (Sam) Asghari. When will Britney find a mature honest to goodness loving life partner and distract her from posting these “unusually creative” IG photos? Unfortunately, it seems like her life’s saga hasn’t altered from the path that she’s sadly familiar with even though her blessed heart is now free free. We long for this talented woman to deservingly find that happy ending we all hope for her. I hope it finds Britney and welcomes her with arms wide open. 🙏🏼💗
She always makes terrible choices in men then is surprised when it turns out they were just using her, when everyone and their dog could see it from a mile.
Thanks for this concise yet extensive video. 👏
28:59 Her reality show, where she's getting married was so disturbing. I was 21 at the time and thought she was high, on drugs or something to want to be with him. Her dad is visibly pissed she was marrying him.
Wow, I like how you instantly plunged into this.
Poor Britney went through so much 🥺
I definitely want to get Britney’s book. I support Britney girl😍
I’m waiting for my copy to come in. So glad Britney can finally speak your truth. I love Britney. She has been used and abused her whole life.
As a pre-teen I loved Britney, Christina, N’SYNC and Backstreet Boys. Justin always scared me though. I didn’t like looking at his pictures on the CD insert. 😅
I read it so fast and it was just like- "these people arent bad, these people are evil."
Parasites & demons vile
How this girl was so abused by her family her boyfriends, her husband and by her kids!oh God!!
I couldn’t get past chapter 3. So thanks for the video! ❤
Britney Spears deserves better.
@@virginiep.3412 Agreed
Apparently there are three different copies of the book, but apart from the inside cover and the spine of the book I don't know what the differences are. Has anyone been able to find out please? 💖
I am a couple of years younger than Britney and she became famous when I was in high school. Her kind of music was not exactly my cup of tea at all and while I didn't particularly like her also didn't dislike her at all. For me she was just another singer…I remember a few years later she was constantly on the tabloids, which I found it was outrageous and remember I felt hurt inside because she was always being portraided as a lunatic, an idiot, a sl*t, a bad mother, a cheating girlfriend, insane, violent and stupid. I remember when the umbrella thing happened and they posted a very unflattering picture of her in the newspaper I actually started crying because I felt very sorry for her and made me wonder about all the things she didn't have in life (like a supporting family or stability). The conservatorship was soooooo clearly about her money that makes me wonder what kind of judges we have ruling this country. What more? Her father, of course, telling the media it was for her own good and her sister saying that if it wasn't for the conservatorship she wouldn't be alive today. I feel sorry for her. I still don't care about her music but I can't help but admiring her: she's still here and never gave up, even though she spent 13 years *in prison* unable to enjoy her life and even seeing her kids growing up. Damn it… I just wish her the best. I hope she'll fulfill every single dream she has and finds nothing but happiness and joy in what's left of her life. If she ever comes singing near me I'll defitinely go see her, not for her music, but for her. She deserves literally everything.
Thanks so much, great vid!
Justin Timberlake is a textbook narcissist
I really dig this analysis! Subbed.
The bathroom incident 😣 breaks my hearts. Why would a dad deprive a mother from her own babies. 😭
Love listening to this! Thanks
The abortion was a very sad and traumatic moment for her but I think it's really better she didn't have a child with Timberlake in the end. She wouldn't have been happy with this awful cheater and would have been linked to him forever.
She is basically linked to him forever.
What I gleaned was that her father treated her like a cash cow and when she didn't do what he wanted, he forced her into facilities and then treated her like a show horse.
That's HER money; she worked her ass off for it.
Easiers said then done to stand up to realizing you have a toxic parent that you still love...
She had multiple jobs as a child including perfecting her outer narrative describing her father and family dynamics.
I see her exploited for others greed and control in the worst ways possible.
It's Jive Records, pronounced like how it's spelled.
Colin Farrell is an actor. He was considered the "bad boy" of Hollywood.
Yeah, her pronunciation was annoying AF! Imagine being a native speaker of English and not knowing 😂😂😂😂
He had a sex tape. I can't remember if that was before or after Britney but it was after Paris Hilton's.
Ha ha I just found this from back in the day:
th-cam.com/video/7cwj6PodJDE/w-d-xo.html
I haven’t read books and summer reading, and I finished this in less than a day!
Did you just say you don't know who is Colin Farrell????!!!! Girl, you googled the early 2000s song era vibe, but didn't come across Colin Farrell?? Come on now, go quickly and rectify this! He's a sweetie and an incredibly talented and major movie star. I'm pretty certain his latest movie was nominated for an Oscar last year. I can't believe Brit had a fling with him....huhuhu.
You told the story great 👍
She was 16 when she made hit me baby one more time?!?!?!
This is a horror story!!! So black mirror stuff! 😢
I think that we doesnt understand that behind this is a lot of people, team, producers...forcing the spear family to act like that. When her sister get pregnant...they take her to a secret place and try to make her do an abortion. So, i think that she learn about the experience of britney...however...people dont undertand the importance of the team pressure (lou tylor was the poopy master) a lot of hands There...family sale her to the wolf just for money...0 values and family loyalty and protection. Of course the family make a lot of mistakes...however...the team...has an important roll here...and is important to see that...because everyone is getting a cancelation but the real people that manipulate this situation are...like normal...without getting their karma
13:20 that’s not true though… because part of abuse is also thinking you owe your abusers. So you probably wouldn’t tell him too bad… because abuse is a type of mind control.
I've always thought up to now that Justin was the victim, and it was the image he gave with that song "cry me a river" certainly. Very sad everything she had to go through. 🥲Thanks to this video for clarifying information and supporting Britney as person🙏 ☺
she prob would been better off if her and her friend got to stay married. even if they broke up later it would have been good for her to leave that mess.
She left some things out because they're still doing litigation and having to go thru what Jamie,Lou and everyone else involved who got paid off
I love your passion behind describing how you felt the stories went down.
He wanted full custody so he can get his hands on her $$$&
