It looks like Britney Spears is ready to release some new music.
There have been rumors that the 41-year-old Princess of Pop was going to release some new tunes to coincide with the release of her memoir, “The Woman In Me,” on Tuesday, October 24.
However, aside from a two-day fan event for her 2002 “Crossroads” movie held on October 23 and October 25, the week came and went without any new music.
Fortunately, on early Sunday morning, the “Toxic” singer took to Instagram to let her followers know that she wrote a new song and they have just one question: when can they hear it?

On early Sunday morning, the “Oops!... I Did It Again” singer revealed that she had written a new song. Although she didn’t tell her followers exactly what it was about, she did drop a few hints, insisting that she has “no beef” with anyone.
In the caption of her Instagram post, she wrote, “I wrote a new song !!! Hate you to like me !!! No beef with anyone … just being a narcissist in a claimed, self-entitled way !!! It’s to accumulate interest by giving ego with my eyes closed because I hear important people do that these days 🎯😉.”

In a message posted both to X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram, the “Hold Me Closer” singer insisted that she never meant to "offend" anyone with her memoir only a few days before the book was released. Instead, she insisted that she has "moved on" from events that took place "20 years ago" and is looking forward to a "beautiful clean slate" from here on out.
“My book’s purpose was not to offend anyone by any means !!! That was me then …that is in the past !!!” she began. “I don’t like the headlines I am reading …that’s exactly why I quit the business 4 years ago !!! Most of the book is from 20 years ago … I have moved on and it’s a beautiful clean slate from here !!!”
“I am here to establish it that way for the rest of my entire life !!!” she continued. “Either way, that is the last of it and s— happens !! This is actually a book didn’t know needed to be written … although some might be offended, it has given me closure on all things for a better future !!!”
“Hopefully I can enlighten people who feel particularly alone in most cases or hurt or misunderstood !!! Again, my motive for this book was not to harp on my past experiences which is what the press is doing and it’s dumb and silly !!!” she concluded. “I have moved on since then !! #TheWomaninMe.”

On Saturday afternoon, Britney took to Instagram to share a video of an orchestra playing. “Humor is the cure to everything !!! Play on !!! Volume 2 will be released next year … get ready !!!” she wrote in the caption, teasing a possible sequel to "The Woman In Me." However, that video was deleted several hours later.
Earlier this month, in a deleted Instagram video set to Icona Pop’s “Fall In Love,” the “Overprotected” singer also teased the possibility of a second memoir. “Riding ’n writing ✍🏻 !!! All I’m doing at the moment … volume 2 coming after 1 🙈🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ !!!” she wrote in the caption along with the hashtag #TheWomanInMe.
Last week, however, Britney confessed that not only was her memoir hard to write, but she didn’t like the things that she had been reading about her life in the headlines. “Been so busy lately and there are so many hard things to read in the news about my book !!! Writing the book was so hard 😞 !!!” she wrote in the caption. Fortunately, it looks like she has her puppy, Snow, to keep her grounded!
Britney’s tell-all memoir, “The Woman In Me,” was officially released on Tuesday, October 24, 2023.
