“I had a show, slept late and woke up to thousands of messages. Now I’m a family man, I have a beautiful little daughter, a wonderful wife who will be very upset about all this impact. I’m just kidding ( (laughs)! She handles it well, immediately makes fun of this story,” he joked on Instagram, giving his version of the story: “It happened many years ago. I was a model, I lived outside the country. I never talked about it because I think it’s inelegant to talk about other people. But if I wanted to talk to her, I wrote it in the book, they say.

The biography describes a brief affair that occurred in the early 2000s when Britney met Mansur, who was working as a model and living abroad at the time. Thiago Mansur, known for his work in the duo Jetlag, began his career in the fashion world with fashion shows at fashion weeks in São Paulo and New York.
However, his journey took him into the world of electronic music, where he founded the duo Jetlag with Paulo Velloso in 2013. The duo has performed at prestigious festivals including Tomorrowland and Lollapalooza.
Autobiography of the Little Princess of Pop
Britney Spears’ life has been a roller coaster ride full of ups and downs and has fascinated the public for years. With the release of her autobiography, The Woman in Me, Britney is now ready to unearth secrets that have been hidden for more than 20 years. The revelation about the relationship with Thiago Mansur is just one of the many moments covered in the book. The work also deals with an abortion during her relationship with Justin Timberlake and the years under her father’s guardianship.
“The purpose of my book was not to offend anyone in any way. That was me. It’s in the past. I don’t like the headlines I read. That’s exactly why I left this business four years ago. Most of the book is from 20 years ago. I’ve moved on and from here it’s a beautiful blank slate,” the singer wrote.
