Will Britney REALLY address her personal struggles in her book?

[Daredevil]

I am wondering and hoping that after 15 years Britney actually goes candid with her personal struggles too. I think this will give a somewhat of a stop to the conspiracist and all the rumors etc.

It seems we're sure she will address her management and mainly her family, ex husband etc. but what I think is really necessary to address what actually happened to her? 

Whether it was **** use or mental issues or anything but I wish she opened about all now. I am not sure if releasing the book makes sense if she won't address this too very openly?

Do you all think she will address all this? She never did in her posts or audio recordings, just touched on that but never went to details.

 

 

 

 

 

P.S.(anticipating some hate, I know it's none of our job but SINCE the book is coming out it makes more sense to actually address everything doesn't it?)

[easy]

Yes. I think Britney will share exactly what she wanted to share. If she had done it in her posts/audio posts it would have left nothing for the book. I believe her when she said she did a lot of therapy for this book. It shows in her growth.

i HOPE she does because it would put a end to unnecesary and over the top speculation. Drama ends the moment the person aknowledges and recognices whats happening. I never understood why her supposed mental health issues or ***** use were kept under the carpet for so long. I get that “its not our business” but not putting a light into it certainly damaged not only her brand and how ppl see her but also her incabaility to move forward in the society she lives in.

what diagnosis could be SO DRAMATIC that is still such a secret?

its time already

Hmmmm idk tbh.  I hope she does, because one day someone from team con is gonna leak info they shouldn’t leak and this is her moment to own her narrative before they try own it again.

I'm not holding my breath for major details in this book.

If you've been following Britney from the start you'll know after every interview there's always more questions than answers. It's the mystery surrounding Britney that's kept us coming back for more all this time.  

It also doesn't really seem like Britney has accepted whatever her mental health issues are so I can't see us getting any real info there but that's just speculation on my part.

What diagnosis could be so dramatic ... On the other hand, she worked constantly in a physically strenuous job. Do you know anyone who worked hours, days, weeks, months, years with a serious mental illness?

seems like it but if she doesn't address it, I am not sure if this book is what everyone wants. It cannot be completely one sided 

[BritneyWiki]

I don't see the point in playing this guessing game, because only Britney knows the truth of her life. How are we to know if she's leaving anything out or not?  We all have some issues from time to time. For Britney, were they the result of the extreme pressures and circumstances she was placed in? If she was diagnosed with something at some point, is she needing to tell us? I think she can share her story any way that she wants and that's still being honest

I am really curious to see how this ends up being written. Is it going to be a timeline where she’s describing her life and everything she went through… Is it just going to be a bunch of passages about random specific situations that don’t really flow or have any sort of continuity? How will she open the book? How will it end? The wait is killing me.

I'm also so curious about it. Like I need this book right now.

U have to wait till book is out and then read it to know whether she will or not address.

I really want this book to see what she decided to share with world. Anticipation is part of excitement for me

Anticipation? We’ve been waiting over a decade for this! Lmao 

[kleinbritney]

She certainly won't tell everything. If only to avoid an expensive lawsuit. They will all be lurking to sue Britney for many dollars. In a book like this, there are seldom statements that can be proven. Her life is good enough for several sequels to the book. We are curious.

[kobeta]

Would kill to read the first draft. That was probably fire, before all the legal stuff. I believe we’ll be getting a very watered down version and 288 pages seems very short for her story.  We’ll see. 

[BlackoutITZ]

I don't think any of us could know the answer to this question until the book comes out.

We didn't have a date so i wasn't too hopeful for its release. And now with anounced date i really am waiting and that is exciting for me.

I think there will be some sort of negative reaction or kind of disappointment in a lot of fans that are expecting a certain thing.

Mainly, because we're not Britney, and she's gonna tell what she wants to tell, not what we want to hear.

So maybe there's a lot of stories she will uncover, which we never heard about before, but then other things that we consider important, they aren't relevant from her perspective.

There are several things we have to consider:

• People may want to hear things like what happened with Original Doll, or Femme Fatale era, or Britney Jean or whatever, things related to her career, but maybe for her all of that is stuff that doesn't even cross her mind as worth mentioning, or maybe she doesn't even remember certain details.
• She hates to put herself as a victim, so maybe also many things related to her family or any other person that may have taken advantage of her, or abused her or something, that we want to hear all the drama and see them as these demons to destroy on social media, they will be seen as "watered down" or not as shocking or powerful by the reader, because I doubt Britney will play the "ooh poor me" card, that's just not her style. Or maybe despite everything, there's still things she's embarrassed to talk about.
• Then there's the legal aspect, regardless of whether is truth or not all the cease and desists we've herd about, there's always a limitation of what one can say about others without evidence, or she could be accused of defamation.
• And of course the fact that there's a physical limitation, like I doubt she can write every single detail of her personal life and career in just 288 pages, so obviously a lot of things will be left out.

 

I feel like in order to draw a better picture, not just in the case of Britney, but any memoir by any person, you would have to also have the participation of other key figures that played an important role in that person's life and career. What I mean is, in a parallel world, Britney would go to her family, managers, colleagues, childhood friends, past relationships, even journalists and even fans that have documented her life from the outside to get a more concise story, to gather details and events that maybe she had forgotten or that she may be mixing up, because it's impossible to have a photographic memory of 40+ years of life, and 25+ years of career.

But I think we can assume that this obviously didn't happen, so rather than having any personal expectations of "I want Britney to talk about this and that" and suddenly have a clear picture, the absolute truth of every single thing that has happened in her life and career, I'm just open to hear whatever she wants to tell, in the way she wants to tell it, perfectly aware that this is a one sided story told from her very own subjective point of view. Like, I'm not waiting for this book to answer any of MY questions or any mysteries among the fandom, I just want to hear what she has to say.

In the end, if she agreed to do this, is because there must be a message she wants to share with the world. Like, at the end the book must have some sort of reflection or lesson or advice or whatever she wants to tell us, using her own story as a demonstration of it.

Maybe some parts won't make a lot of sense and they're written in code, like her Instagram posts or her poems, and is not as explicit as we want to, like pointing fingers and dropping names; maybe it WILL have all sorts of groundbreaking accusations, we just don't know, but meanwhile I'm just not creating any expectations in my mind.

 

tl;dr:

Spoiler

I agree. Well said  

[Dave92]

I don’t know if she needs to get THAT personal about her internal struggles… or real medical stuff. It’d be interesting to read, but she can be honest and open without completely exposing herself. 

I do want to see Team Con called out, I want Loucifer’s and Robin’s names + all they have done. I am mostly concerned about that part because of Puppet Karadashian’s alleged “support”, the rumors, etc. If she doesn’t rip them all a new one, it’s not gonna be worth it. Plus it’s shorter than I expected. Just hope it contains enough and isn’t rushed/censored.

I said on here yesterday, it worries me its only 288 pages. it sounds a lot but i read Melanie C's autobiography and she covers in depth her childhood, getting into the spice girls, struggles during SGs, her solo career, shes only a few years older than Britney and have been about only 2-3 more years in the music business and she covered a lot about depression and eating disorders, so taking all of that in account, Britneys book should be the same length as Melanie C's and her autobiography is 432 pages so double-ish to Britney's. so im worried there'll be loads missed out for legal reasons. or, and i hope this is the case and good chance it is, she's left out all of her childhood and how she got into the music business etc [basically everything we already know] and this book is just a set the record straight on the cship and her family which i'd be ok about. The whole point of the book is to give her side of the story on the cship, its not really a 'life story' book
