Chapter 9
Chapter 9 marks a turning point in my career, where I moved from being an unknown artist to a worldwide sensation. The journey began with the concept for the “…Baby One More Time” video, where the label originally envisioned me as a futuristic astronaut, resembling a Power Ranger. However, I didn't feel that image resonated with me or my audience, so I suggested a different concept. I envisioned the scene as a group of friends sitting at school, bored out of their minds, only to break into dance once…-

Chapter 43
Chapter 43 was one of the darkest periods I had ever endured. Every day felt like a performance, where I had to smile and act stable just to avoid being labeled unstable. If I showed emotion, I was accused of being erratic; if I stayed silent, they called me unwell. It reminded me of the absurd logic of historical witch trials—where either outcome meant punishment. Whether I complied or not, it seemed like I was destined to lose. There was no way to “win” under that scrutiny, only a struggle to…-
