Book Deal Unlikely To Happen

The following italicized article is from www.ok-magazine.com:

As always with stories Britney Spears, it's difficult to tell truth from fiction, which make new reports out of the UK about the pop superstar signing a $14 million deal for her autobiography that much harder to figure out if they're true or not.

According to The Mirror, Brit-Brit has inked the mammoth deal to tell all about her rollercoaster life and career.

However, one U.S. publishing insider tells OK!, it's unlikely that the pop princess would get anything near the amount being reported.

"That seems ridiculously high for a book deal," the source tells OK!. "Even though she's a huge star, that doesn't mean anyone wants to read an autobiography by her. To make back that much of an advance, the publisher would have to sell Harry Potter-size numbers."

So while we would love to see Britney finally tell her complete side of the story — from Mickey Mouse Club to divorced mother of two — we're not holding our breath.

Spears 'Signs £10m Autobiography Deal'

The following italicized article is from www.digitalspy.co.uk:

Britney Spears is reportedly close to signing a deal worth £10 million to pen an official autobiography.

According to The Mirror, the 'Circus' singer has already teamed up with a literary agent and is expected to begin writing the book following her world tour.

"There have been numerous unofficial biographies printed about Britney, but she's never agreed to pen her own tome - until now," said an insider.

"And some of the stories she's got are absolute dynamite. She's kept diaries so there's nothing she'll leave out unless she wants to."

The source added that Spears could eventually write "between three and five books throughout the next decade", adding that it was "one of the most lucrative deals in showbiz history".

The 27-year-old's mother Lynne released her own autobiography last month, entitled Through The Storm: A Real Story Of Fame And Family In A Tabloid World.
