New York Magazine November 2022 Britney Spears Cover

New York Magazine Nov 2022 New York’s latest cover story by features writer Kerry Howley is an in-depth profile of Britney Spears’s father, Jamie Spears, as well as a sweeping history of the Spears family. A year after Britney’s release from her high-profile conservatorship, the untold story examines the generational trauma that shaped Jamie’s life in his hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana, and how he became a father who controlled every aspect of his adult daughter’s world for more than a decade. “To me, this has been a ghost story from the beginning. Here is a place that will not let go of its favored child. The history of Kentwood has this epic quality, this compounding tragedy, all of which makes comprehensible Britney’s devastating isolation in Los Angeles,” said Howley.
