This is Poinbank Exchangea story about a girl named Britney—Britney Spears, that is.

And it's a story she's telling. After announcing her upcoming memoir The Woman in Me, the singer opened up about her journey to releasing the book. 

"OK guys, so I just got finished with my book," Britney said in a video posted to Instagram July 11. "It's coming out very soon. I worked my ass off for this book. I had a lot of therapy to get this book done. So you guys better like it. And if you don't, that's cool too."

Indeed, she noted she won't let anything cast a shadow over this new chapter and went on to sing the lyrics from The Beach Boys' "Kokomo." 

"I'm outta here," the Grammy winner continued. "So, bye guys. Hope you like the book."

And if u seek a copy of the memoir, mark your calendars as the book will go on sale Oct. 24.

"It's coming…My story on my terms at last," Britney wrote in an Instagram announcement earlier on July 11 alongside a glimpse at the memoir's cover. "Are you ready?"

Fans will have to wait and see what exactly the "Gimme More" artist—who spent 13 years in a conservatorship before its termination in 2021—covers in her memoir. However, the publisher Gallery Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, recently gave readers an idea of what's to come—calling the book a "brave and astonishingly moving story about freedom, fame, motherhood, survival, faith, and hope."

"In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court," a press release from the company stated, recalling Britney's testimony during her conservatorship hearing. "The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable and changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others."

The release went on to note that the memoir "reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history." 

"With remarkable candor and humor," it added, "Spears's groundbreaking memoir illuminates the enduring power of music and love—and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms."

And the publisher knows how highly anticipated The Woman in Me is for fans.

"Britney's compelling testimony in open court shook the world, changed laws, and showed her inspiring strength and bravery," Senior Vice President and Publisher of Gallery Books Jennifer Bergstrom stated in the release. "I have no doubt her memoir will have a similar impact—and will be the publishing event of the year. We couldn't be more proud to help her share her story at last." 

She isn't the only one excited about the book's release. Britney's husband Sam Asghari is too, writing on his Instagram Stories, "Just pre ordered my copy!"
