Britney Spears has reportedly signed a $15 million book deal with Simon & Schuster.

Insiders tell Page Six that the landmark deal for a tell-all memoir about the “Toxic” singer’s career, life and family comes after a bidding war from multiple publishers.

Once source even claimed, “the deal is one of the biggest of all time, behind the Obamas.”  The rights for Barack and Michelle Obama’s books reportedly sold for more than $60 million in 2017.

Spears’ sister Jamie Lynn released her memoir, Things I Should Have Said, in January.  Britney called her sister “scum” for trying to profit off of her misfortune and sent the younger Spears a cease-and-desist letter claiming the book contains “misleading or outrageous claims” about the singer.
