Britney Spears Stands To Make At Least $15 Million From Second Book Deal

Highlights

• Britney Spears' first memoir, "The Woman in Me," has been a huge success and she is likely to sign a second book deal that could make her tens of millions of dollars.
• Publishers are eager to capitalize on the buzz surrounding Britney's life and want her to release a second memoir soon.
• Britney may discuss her ongoing divorce from Sam Asghari in the second memoir, but she is not looking to go after him legally, just to explain why the relationship broke down.

Britney Spears just released her first memoir The Woman in Me, which goes into detail about her early rise to fame in the entertainment industry. Nonetheless, the pop star has already revealed she hopes to sign another book deal – and it’s likely to make her tens of millions, if it happens.

Shortly after her memoir released in October, Britney made a post on social media saying a second edition is likely coming.

“Humor is the cure to everything !!! Play on !!!” the pop star wrote . “Volume 2 will be released next year … get ready!”

So far, it hasn’t been confirmed if Britney has signed a second book deal. But if so, she will likely make more than she did during the original agreement. It remains unconfirmed how much Britney made, but reports suggest her memoir deal was worth $15 million.

She may have a stake in the profits as well, which could lead to a huge pay check, considering it’s become one of the best-selling celebrity memoirs of all time.

The success of Britney’s first memoir so far means publishers will likely be eager to have her sign a second deal and release it soon, so they can capitalize on the buzz surrounding Britney’s life.

Speaking to Us Weekly, a source claimed that Britney wants to discuss her ongoing divorce from Sam Asghari in the second memoir.

Sam filed for divorce in August after 14 months of marriage. Despite a prenup, the estrange couple’s divorce remains ongoing amid reports that Sam is trying to secure a more generous payout, since he was only entitled to a settlement after 2 years of marriage (though he’s denying the claims).

“Britney’s not looking to go after Sam,” the source claimed. “She just wants [to talk about] why the relationship broke down.”

Britney could make even more from her memoir, as Hollywood big wigs are reportedly trying to secure the rights to turn it into a movie adaption. A report claims Brad Pitt is willing to invest eight figures into the biopic via his company Plan B entertainment.

Margot Robbie’s Lucky Chap Productions and Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine company are also reportedly interested in producing the movie, as is Grey’s Anatomy creator Shonda Rimes, who previously worked with Spears on Crossroads.

For now, Britney hasn’t apparently settled on a production company to produce the movie, though she’s apparently interested in negotiating a deal.
