Product Description
Having amassed a fortune of over $100 million and record sales of forty million at the age of twenty-two, Britney Spears is the worlds biggest female star. This is the first biography to chronicle how the little girl, with a crucifix in each ear, has become the ultimate in tabloid fodder. Britney will follow her roller coaster life from her time on the Mickey Mouse Club, where she first met Justin Timberlake, to the moment she shot to fame and became the all-American pop princess. Somehow it all fell apartscarred by her break-up with Timberlake, roundly booed at the London premiere of her first film, the downward spiral culminated with her infamous fifty-five-hour Las Vegas marriage. Speculating on what an uncertain future holds for Mrs. Federline-Spears, Britney will be a gossipy and revealing biography of one of the most fascinating figures in pop.

 Oops she did it again December 1, 2009
Meddlesome Matilda (Missouri)
this book was not worth the .01 cent plus shipping and handling that I paid for it. It was not an honest and in depth story of the girl but rather she is portrayed as some kind of angelic creature with no faults at all, the author almost proclaims her to be the Immaculate Conception. This book bored me so badly that I was no longer surprised that someone sold a pristine brand new looking hard cover book for 1 cent!

This was a very good unauthorized account of Britney's beginnings all the way to her marriage to Kevin Federline. It goes as far as the Chaotic Reality show and her album titled, Greatest Hits: My Prerogative. There are accounts of her childhood, her boyfriends, how she got into the business, the moments she shared with Justin Timberlake, her Madonna Britney smooch, and much on her parents lifestyle. Although, the book could have included more information it did a good job in depicting Britney as a very talented superstar who worked hard from her early beginning and managed to overcome many obstacles. The book has a back part that has UK Discography, Chronology, and Index. Is it the best book? I've read other books that were a bit more insightful and entertaining. One that I recommend is Britney Spears' Heart to Heart since it was more her version. However, there are numerous more current versions out there like The Truth About Britney Spears, Britney: Inside the Dream, and more.
Sean Smith also has another biography for Justin Timberlake titled, Justin: The Unauthorized Biography. He is an excellent writer and I highly recommend this book for already fans and new music listeners. It includes some color photos in the middle that are very nice. This is a great collector's item and it has a nice compact size to carry around in your purse if your a girl or in your bag if you are a guy. For up to date information you will get Kevin Federline's entrance into the rap industry very briefly in the last chapters as well as accounts of their wedding, his past relationships, and other juicy things. If the author would have written just a little bit more on this last portion I would have found it to be a lot more interesting. However, it has a very classy, style never gossipy nor degrading to Britney. She is painted pretty inside and out! On the negative side, it could have had more family interviews, acquaintance interviews, and other extras seen on other books like Britney: Not That Innocent. However, if you want a nicely written unauthorized biography with the main projections on Britney's professional, personal, and entertainment styles then this if for you.
THIS BOOK IS NOT BAD December 30, 2008

SEAN SMITH DOES AN OK JOB WITH THIS BOOK. WE REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PERSON BRITNEY IS REALLY LIKE. WE READ THAT SHE IS POLITE, NOT A BIG EGO, A DRIVER AND VERY MIXED UP. TOO BAD MR SMITH DID NOT ADD MORE TO THIS BOOK AFTER BRITNEY REALLY WENT OVER THE CLIFF A FEW YEARS AGO. THE BOOK COVERS BRITNEY'S CAREER AND LIFE IN SOME DETAIL AND ADEQUATELY DOES THE JOB. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS FOR FANS THAT DON'T KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT BRITNEY FOR MUCH OF THE INFO IN THIS BOOK HAS BEEN REHASHED. NOT FOR THE DIE HARD FANS OF BRITNEY.
 great book April 26, 2008
