For those of you who have read my book, there's loads that you don't know about me ... I've written over 20 songs for other people the past two years !!!”. “I'm a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it that way !!! People are also saying MY BOOK WAS RELEASED WITHOUT MY APPROVAL ILLEGALLY and that's far from the truth ... have you read the news these days ??? I'm so LOVED and blessed !!!” Spears' post included the graphic image of an old painting featuring a woman holding a man's severed head on a plate.
