Britney Spears fans pulled some takeaways from her new memoir that are less related pop star's stories but rather the voice sharing them.
Clips of Michelle Williams' narration of "The Woman in Me" have taken some of the spotlight as listeners are obsessing over the vocal delivery especially her impression of Justin Timberlake.
In the book, Spears recounts her sensational relationship with the former NSYNC member. At one point she comments on how the vocal group tried to distinguish themselves from the Backstreet Boys by surrounding themselves with Black artists so they can be perceived as a group of "white boys [who] loved hip hop."
"Sometimes, I think they tried too hard to fit in. One day, J and I were in New York going to parts of town I’d never been to before. Walking our way was a guy with a huge blinged-out medallion. He was flanked by two giant security guards," Spears writes and Williams reads. "J got all excited and said so loud, ‘Oh yeah, fo’ shiz, fo’ shiz. Ginuwine! What’s up, homie?’"

'Michelle Williams needs an AWARD'
The clip of Williams reading the quote has gone viral leading to praise for the Oscar-nominated actor and calls for her to be nominated for a Grammy in the best audiobook, narration and storytelling recording category.
"When Michelle Williams wins the best audiobook recording Grammy for this line reading what then," Zoë Rose Bryant wrote on X (formerly Twitter) sharing a different voice clip from the "Dawson's Creek" star.
The clip has also reached meme status with users sharing their thoughts on the clips on X and TikTok.
“Nothing can prepare you for these 15 seconds of Michelle Williams doing a Justin Timberlake impression as written by Britney Spears,” a user wrote on X, posting a clip of the audio recording," user @heylucymay wrote."
Niccara Campbell echoed campaigning efforts for Williams' reading and praised her impression of Mariah Carey.
"Michelle Williams needs an AWARD for this Britney audiobook okay?!" Campbell wrote on X. "Her mimicking THE Mariah Carey has me weak okay?! What has me more weak is this is also how I would feel too meeting Mariah Carey."
