''When I am singing I am myself'
In extracts of the memoir seen by The Sun, Britney writes: "When I sing I am myself. To me singing is a magical place where the noise no longer has any meaning, where everything is possible.
"All I wanted was to leave the everyday world and enter this other realm where I could express myself without having to think.
She continued: "When I was alone with my thoughts, my mind was filled with worries and fears. But the music put an end to all worries, gave me self-esteem.
"As long as I was singing, I was half outside the ordinary world.
"Singing was like a bridge between reality and fantasy, between the world in which I lived and the world in which I desperately wanted to live."

In her book, Britney detailed her rocky relationship with her father: "Feeling like you’re never good enough is a soul-crushing state of being for a child.
"He’d drummed that message into me as a girl, and even after I’d accomplished so much, he was continuing to do that to me.
"I became a robot. But not just a robot — a sort of child-robot. I had been so infantilized that I was losing pieces of what made me feel like myself."

Book is 'a nightmare' for Justin Timberlake
After Britney's bombshell abortion allegations surfaced, a source told The U.S. Sun: "Justin owns who he was when he and Britney were together, even though his personality, career, lifestyle, and personal priorities are radically different now, 20 years later.
“This book is a nightmare for him because of how it throws the whole family into chaos. The timing stings just as much as the revelation itself.
The insider continued: "Justin had a big fall planned with new music on deck, more work with his old friends in NSYNC, and of course, the next installment of the Trolls franchise, which has been a huge moneymaker for Justin over the last several years.”
