And she should have plenty of material - from her split with Justin Timberlake to her infamous two-day marriage to Jason Alexander two weeks ago.

The book, which it is claimed she will write later this year, is said to have the working title "On My Own".

The paper quotes an insider as saying: "This will be the book of 2004 and Britney is currently in talks about who will ghost write it with her.

"There are so many things she'll include, it's bound to be a bestseller."

It is said that 22-year-old Britney will confess the real reason she wed Jason, then had the marriage annulled just hours later.

She is also likely to lift the lid on other lovers, including Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst.

And there should be plenty of detail about her wild partying lifestyle.

News about the book has come just a day after she was seen leaving a Los Angeles hospital - sparking fresh fears about her health.
