Peter Ford has just about finished Britney Spears’ new memoir The Woman in Me, and told Millsy and Karl on 6PR Breakfast all about it.

The Today Show reporter and entertainment guru was impressed by the candidness and emotion of the book, which details Spear’s life and career, warts and all.

“I think she is damaged goods, through no fault of her own,” Mr Ford said.

“I don’t think she would be up to the rigours of touring anymore, which is a real shame, but hopefully this goes some of the way to supporting her at this stage.”
