Michelle Williams will narrate Britney Spears’ memoir.
The 43-year-old actress will read The Woman in Me - which charts the life and career of the pop superstar and her 13-year conservatorship from her own point of view - for the audiobook release because Spears would find it “too emotional” to read it aloud herself.
Spears said: “This book has been a labour of love and all the emotions that come with it. Reliving everything has been exciting, heart-wrenching and emotional, to say the least.
“For those reasons, I will only be reading a small part of my audiobook. I am so grateful to the amazing Michelle Williams for reading the rest of it.”
According to reports, only female celebrities were approached for the job, and though the publisher pushed for Reese Witherspoon to do the narration, the Morning Show actress was unavailable.
