The way Mariah inspired everyone  

 

 

 

 

" I did everything Mariah told me to do" I can just picture Mariah telling Britney " No sweetie your hand is gonna rest right here, Larry close the door and turn this light on" 

 

Also Britney saying the picture was the real prize is just heartwarming. Love both queens

From what I know, she says that xtina was able to be provocative and etc and received a different treatment from her and mentions the tour she did with JT.

 

Which isn’t true tho. Just look at the reviews for Stripped from 2002. All are talking about how she’s not wearing any clothes and not a good role model, not so much about the music

JT is VILE....just VILE...imagine saying all this when she aborted a child for you

 

 

I used to follow JT closely and it's so weird because he was obsessed with her around this time (even tho they had broken up years earlier). I always suspected her marrying his former back-up dancer pissed him off even tho he tried to play it cool like he was S0o0o fAr R3m0oVeD fr0m ThAt SiTuAti0n... he made a lot of comments about her during the FS/LS promo tour. It was odd.

Double diamond queens always support one another.

 

Britney always used to praise Mariah for her great melodies and selected Butterfly as her favorite Mariah Carey album.

Any other big reveals? Can you post some spoilers? Im going away for a holiday next week and wont get to read the book 

[qurl]

it’s ….. honestly heartbreaking that (at least for now) she’s become disillusioned with making music …. bc it’s really not HER that feels that way, u know ?? it’s what they have done to her. her father and the people around her robbed her of the joy of being an entertainer , and now we’re all worse off for it. i hope that one day she’ll feel that spark again, maybe give us one more album or tour on her terms … but only when she feels ready

 

ive made jokes in the past , a lot of us have … sure maybe at times Britney seems a little … quirky , shall we say ! but she legitimately has to be so strong to still be alive after what she’s endured. i’m so inspired by her resolve and ability to move forward despite what she went thru … what a woman

Spoiler

she does mention alexa nicolas and adnan the paparazzi but not by name. also btri was sent to rehab twice during the residency days (2014-2017) because she was caught taking a diet supplement without her fathers permission  they're evil. EVIL.

it's so funny how she brings it up nnnn but she also said one or two good things about her

[Mr. Mendes]

Honestly really happy to hear that Madonna was actually there for her in private and that it wasn't just a public act. 

 

Apparently, she talks about Madonna a lot in the book according to Time. A little blurb on some of the mentions:

 

Spoiler

Madonna’s name is mentioned a whopping 17 times throughout The Woman in Me. As a young girl, Spears idolized the star—and wanted to be like her. Once Spears was on the awards show circuit, she started running into Madonna “all over the world.” 

 

Later, when Spears decamped in Cher’s old NoHo apartment, Madonna dropped by for a visit. “She walked into the place and immediately, of course, she owned the room. I remember thinking, it’s Madonna’s room now,” Spears writes.

 

In Madonna, Spears found a mentor. “Madonna’s supreme confidence helped me see a lot about my situation with fresh eyes. I think she probably had some intuitive sense of what I was going through. I needed a little guidance at that time,” she writes. Madonna performed a red-string ceremony with Spears to initiate her into Kabbalah; she also gifted Spears a “trunk full” of Zohar books.

 

It was while rehearsing for the VMAs that Spears had the idea to feature Madonna on Me Against the Music, her latest single at the time. She approached Madonna directly with the request, and the rest was history.

 

Spears’ admiration for Madonna, and her “supreme confidence,” is made clear. “If I could go back now, I would try to become my own parent, my own partner, my own advocate—the way I knew Madonna did,” she reflects. During their Me Against the Music shoot, Spears was in awe of how Madonna refused to compromise her artistic vision and integrity. “It was an important lesson for me,” Spears writes. “One that would take me a long time to absorb: she demanded power, and so she got power.”

I know Madonna has a rep as a mean girl, but I think it's really beautiful to see how much she's tried to really be there for Britney
