LOS ANGELES — Britney Spears’ highly anticipated memoir “The Woman in Me” will be released Tuesday, revealing the pop superstar’s personal take on events that have played out publicly in her decades as one of the most scrutinized figures in American life, along with private moments that she previously kept under wraps. In the opening dedication, she writes simply, “For my boys, who are the loves of my life.” Here are some of the details revealed in “The Woman in Me”: THE TIMBERLAKE YEARS Timberlake and Spears appear at the 2002 NBA All-Star game in Philadelphia For a period at the turn of the millennium, Spears and Timberlake were America’s it couple. “It took hours, and I don’t remember how it ended, but I do, twenty years later, remember the pain of it, and the fear.” MAGICAL MUSICAL MOMENTS The song that launched Spears’ solo career, “…Baby One More Time” was directly inspired by Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love.” Spears was listening to it the night before she was going in to record with famed Swedish producer Max Martin She wanted to mimic the English synthpop duo’s sound, so she stayed up late, giving her voice the fried, raspy tone that would become iconic. “It was a desperate move by a desperate person.” HER FATHER TAKES CONTROL When the court established the conservatorship in February of 2008, Spears said her father, with the power of law behind him, established absolute control over her life decisions and finances, at one point even telling her, “I’m Britney Spears now.” Spears says he forced her to break up with the photographer she had been dating, and subjected anyone else she wanted to date to extensive background checks.
