On Sunday, the “Gimme More” singer started trending when it was reported that she planned on sitting down with Oprah Winfrey for a tell-all interview ahead of the release of her new memoir, “The Woman In Me,” this October. The highly anticipated memoir is planned to discuss Britney’s life during her conservatorship, which lasted from February 2008 to November 2021.

Sources told The Sun that Oprah’s team had actually reached out to Britney’s team for a sit-down interview after the conservatorship ended, but Britney was not ready at the time, as she was “still coming to terms with independent life and mentally processing her freedom.” However, an insider noted that the pop star is “in a different place” now and ready to talk.

“The [interview] proposal remains complicated for Britney who continues to face challenges speaking to strangers at length about intimate aspects of her life,” the source revealed. “The trauma didn’t go away overnight just because the conservatorship ended. Some days can be extremely testing and conversations can trigger her to behave unusually or even erratically.”

“Certainly, putting a TV lens on her could be problematic and it means that a proper news-style interview is out of the question,” they continued. “However, a more feature-style interview, allowing her and the team to have control is an option. A move like that, to work with a production company or someone like Oprah, would be her strongest play, but the reality is managing Britney’s mental well-being and health in the process.”

The memoir will reportedly touch on everything from her life during her conservatorship to her high-profile relationship with singer Justin Timberlake and her divorce from ex-husband Kevin Federline, who recently moved his family, including their two teenage sons, to Hawaii on August 1.

Britney Spears’ memoir, “The Woman In Me,” is scheduled for release on October 24, 2023.
