Michelle Williams<\/strong><\/a> impersonates Justin Timberlake<\/strong><\/a> while narrating Britney Spears\u2019<\/strong><\/a> memoir \u2014 and fans are saying \u201cgimme more.\u201d<\/p>\n

Williams, 43, was announced as the narrator of the audiobook edition of Spears\u2019 The Woman in Me<\/em><\/a> earlier this month. After the book hit shelves on Tuesday, October 24, listeners quickly began praising the Oscar winner for her dynamic performance \u2014 with a particular passage about Timberlake, 42, going viral on social media.<\/p>\n

During the nearly one-minute snippet, Spears recalled spending time in New York City with her then-boyfriend as they came across R&B artist Ginuwine<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne day, J and I were in New York, going to parts of town I had never been to before. Walking our way was a guy with a huge, blinged-out medallion. He was flanked by two giant security guards. J got all excited and said so loud, \u2018Oh yeah, fo\u2019 shiz, fo\u2019 shiz. Ginuwine, what\u2019s up, my homie?’\u201d<\/p>\n

Spears \u2014 who said \u2018NSync may have tried a little \u201ctoo hard\u201d to fit in at times \u2014 noted that Ginuwine walked away from Timberlake without a response. Spears\u2019 assistant Felicia Culotta<\/strong><\/a> poked fun at the awkward interaction, but Timberlake seemingly wasn\u2019t flustered. \u201cJ wasn\u2019t even embarrassed,\u201d Spears said. \u201cHe just took it and looked at her like, \u2018OK, f\u2014k you.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Williams\u2019 impersonation of Timberlake during the snippet \u2014 which has circulated via X (formerly known as Twitter) \u2014 has reached more than nine million views online, with fans praising the Dawson\u2019s Creek<\/em><\/a> alum for her expert narration skills.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing can prepare you for these 15 seconds of Michelle Williams doing a Justin Timberlake impression<\/a> as written by Britney Spears,\u201d one person wrote, while another added: \u201cIs Michelle Williams\u2019 narration of Britney\u2019s memoir Oscar eligible?\u201d<\/p>\n

Others wanted a guarantee that the rest of the memoir<\/a> would be just as entertaining, with one social media user saying, \u201cIf someone can confirm that the rest of the book is this funny, please let me know and I\u2019ll buy it ASAP.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tAlexa, play \u201cCry Me a River\u201d by Justin Timberlake \u2014 and then, cue up \u201cEverytime\u201d by Britney Spears. Timberlake and Spears called it quits two decades ago, but fans are still invested in their rocky romance. The former boy bander and pop princess met in the early \u201990s while filming The Mickey Mouse Club. In [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Spears announced in July that her memoir <\/a>\u2014 titled after lyrics in her song \u201cI\u2019m Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman\u201d \u2014 would be released in October 2023, through Simon & Schuster\u2019s Gallery Books imprint.<\/p>\n

\u201cBritney\u2019s compelling testimony in open court shook the world, changed laws, and showed her inspiring strength and bravery,\u201d publisher\u00a0Jennifer Bergstrom<\/strong>\u00a0said in a press release. \u201cI have no doubt her memoir will have a similar impact \u2014 and will be the publishing event of the year. We couldn\u2019t be more proud to help her share her story at last.\u201d<\/p>\n

While writing her debut tome, Spears didn\u2019t hold back in detailing her relationship<\/a> with Timberlake, whom she dated from 1999 to 2002. She claimed the pair were both unfaithful during their romance, with Timberlake cheating on her \u201ca couple of times.\u201d She also revealed she got an at-home abortion after the \u201cCry Me a River\u201d singer<\/a> confessed that he wasn\u2019t ready to become a parent.<\/p>\n

\u201cI agreed not to have the baby,\u201d she wrote. \u201cIf it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn\u2019t want to be a father<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
