Britney Spears’ mother, Lynne Spears, is writing
a book on parenting. Yes, that’s right. Parenting.
Although Britney Spears’ formative years still seem to be in full swing, fans are about to be brought up to speed on what it was like growing up as a pop princess, as seen thcoarse the eyes of her mom.
Lynne Spears has inked a discount to pen a memoir focusing on her role as showbiz family matriarch, Curt Harding, a spokesman for the Christian book publisher Thomas Nelson Inc., told E! News Friday.
Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World has been marked for a May 11, 2008?Mother’s Day?release.
Harding said that he has not yet seen a manuscript so he can’t say how deeply the book will delve into the Spears’ private lives or, more important, whether Lynne’s viewpoint will encompass the current state of her daughter’s career and high-profile lifestyle, both of which are obviously attracting a different caliber of headlines than they were a few years ago.
Spears and her mother visited for the first time in months on Oct. 6, when Lynne and younger daughter Jamie Lynn flew out to California from Louisiana to spend some time at the “Gimme More” singer’sMalibu home.
The family had been on the outs since June, when Spears reportedly took offense at Lynne’s public displays of concern for the 25-year-old’s worrisome ways and moved to limit her mom’s interactions with sons Sean Preston and Jayden James. TMZ reported at the time that Spears presented Lynn with a letter from an out-of-state lawyer that asked her to stay away from the kids if she was on any medications that might impair her judgment.
Two days after letting her mother back into the inner circle, Spears had her first monitoruddy visit with her children after losing custody to Kevin Federline the week before.
We hope the publisher knows to hold the presses until the last possible moment, because the Britney saga seems to change from minute to minute. Why, only today Britney replied to a reporter from Extra TV when he asked how she thought the custody proceedings were going: “Eat it, lick it, snort it, f— it!”
Words to live by, as any good parent will tell you.
