‘The Woman in Me’: Britney Spears makes another revelation in memoir. Here’s what she claims about Justin Timberlake’s ‘Cry Me a River’ music video
Britney Spears, in her upcoming memoir titled "The Woman in Me," discusses the fallout caused by Justin Timberlake's 2002 music video for "Cry Me a River." The song, a part of Timberlake's debut solo album «Justified,» drew inspiration from their past relationship.
The pop stars began dating in 1999 when Spears was 17 and Timberlake was 18 but separated in 2002. Timberlake's music video portrayed an unfaithful girlfriend reminiscent of Spears, which fueled speculation in the media that Spears had been unfaithful, as per media reports.
In her memoir, Spears describes the video as showing «a woman who looks like me cheats on him, and he wanders around sad in the rain.» She explains that the media frenzy surrounding the video turned her into a «harlot who'd broken the heart of America's golden boy,» despite the reality being that she was «comatose in Louisiana,» nursing a broken heart, while Timberlake was «happily running around Hollywood,» the reports said.
In a previous revelation, Spears mentioned having an abortion during her relationship with Timberlake. She recalls telling Timberlake about the pregnancy and his response, saying, «He said we weren't ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young.» Spears expresses her love for Timberlake and her expectation of having a family with him one day. However, she also acknowledges uncertainty about the decision, stating, «If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn't want to be a father.»
Spears' memoir, «The Woman in Me,» is available for pre-order and is set to be released on October 24.
