Britney Spears Confesses She Had an Abortion with Justin Timberlake’s Baby in Her New Memoir

In her new memoir, The Woman in Me, Britney Spears reveals a shocking secret about her relationship with Justin Timberlake. They were both stars of the Mickey Mouse Club and started dating in 1999, when they were teenagers. “I love Justin so much,” she writes. “I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I anticipated.” She is referring to the time she got pregnant with his child and had an abortion. “It was a surprise, but for me it wasn’t a tragedy,” she says. “If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it,” she adds. “And yet Justin was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father.” She calls it “one of the most agonizing things” she ever went through.

The book also covers her life under the 13-year conservatorship, the reason behind her head-shaving episode in 2007, and the fat-shaming she faced from her father, Jamie Spears.

Spears and Timberlake split in 2002 and she married Kevin Federline in 2004. She had two sons with him — Sean Preston and Jayden James — before they divorced in 2007.

Sufjan Stevens: Singer-Songwriter Battles Rare Disorder, Releases New Album

Sufjan Stevens is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who has released several acclaimed albums in various genres and styles. He is also known for his collaborations with other artists and composers, such as Bryce Dessner, Nico Muhly, and Justin Peck.

However, Stevens has been facing a serious health challenge since last year. He has been diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare autoimmune disorder that causes the body’s immune system to attack the nerves. This can lead to muscle weakness, paralysis, and sometimes death.

Stevens revealed his condition on his website and social media, saying that he has been “in and out of the hospital for months” and that he is “learning to walk again”. He also shared photos and videos of himself doing physical therapy exercises, playing guitar, and walking with a cane. He expressed his gratitude for the support and prayers he has received from his fans and friends.

Despite his illness, Stevens has not stopped making music. He is set to release his new album Javelin on October 6, 2021. The album is described as “a collection of intimate songs about love, loss, faith, and hope” that are influenced by his personal experiences and struggles. The album features two singles: “Will Anybody Ever Love Me?”, a heartbreaking ballad about loneliness and longing, and “Javelin”, a hopeful anthem about overcoming adversity.

Stevens announced on his social media that he will be discharged from the hospital soon. He wrote: “Looks like I’m getting out of here tomorrow. I’ll continue the work at home and in outpatient therapy. Thanks for following my hospital blog. And thanks for all your prayers and well wishes. Pray for the peace of the world. Be well. Be safe. Be yourself. XOS”.

Sufjan Stevens is an inspiring example of resilience and creativity in the face of adversity. We wish him a speedy recovery and we look forward to hearing his new album.

Krayzie Bone Survives Near-Death Experience Due to Sarcoidosis

Rapper Krayzie Bone, a member of the legendary hip hop group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, has revealed that he was hospitalized for nine days in a critical condition due to a rare autoimmune disease. The 50-year-old musician shared a post on Instagram on Monday, thanking his fans for their prayers and support.

"Just fought for life 'Literally' for 9 days straight. And I only won the battle this time because I know Jehovah God was with every step of the way fighting for me," he wrote. "Never take life for granted enjoy it while have you have it! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers trust me I needed every last on of them -KR"

According to various reports¹²³, Krayzie Bone suffers from sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease that causes the immune system to overreact and form clusters of inflamed tissue called granulomas in one or more organs of the body. The rapper reportedly checked into a Los Angeles-area hospital on Friday, Sept. 24, after he started coughing up large amounts of blood. A CAT scan found that an artery in one of his lungs was leaking, and he underwent emergency surgery to stop the bleeding. However, the surgery was unsuccessful, and he was put on a ventilator and sedated in the intensive care unit on Sunday.

Krayzie Bone's condition was described as "life-threatening" by sources close to him, and many of his friends and fellow artists expressed their concern and well-wishes on social media. LeBron James, who is also from Ohio, tweeted: "Prayers to Krayzie man!!!!" DJ Paul, who collaborated with Krayzie Bone on several projects, wrote on Instagram: "Please pray for my brother Kray. We was just in the lab Wednesday recording, having fun, drinking his new IPA. This is unbelievable."

Krayzie Bone is one of the founding members of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, along with Bizzy Bone, Flesh-N-Bone, Wish Bone and Layzie Bone. The group formed in 1991 in Cleveland, Ohio, and rose to fame with their fast-paced rapping style and harmonized vocals. They have sold over 50 million records worldwide and won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for their hit song "Tha Crossroads" in 1996.

Sarcoidosis is a rare disease that affects about 150,000-200,000 people in the United States every year⁴. It can affect any organ, but most commonly affects the lungs and lymph nodes. The cause of sarcoidosis is unknown, and there is no cure for it. However, some people may recover without treatment, while others may need medication or surgery to manage their symptoms.

Krayzie Bone's fans are relieved to hear that he is alive and recovering from his ordeal. They are hoping that he will be able to resume his music career soon and continue to inspire them with his talent and faith.
