Britney Spears’ New Cash Crisis: Singer’s Biopic ‘On Hold’ As She Burns Through $60Million Fortune — ‘There’s No Money Coming In!’
Cash-challenged Britney Spears is desperate to get her biopic movie off and running — but with it being delayed deep into 2025, it’s become a major blow to the pop star’s ego and dwindling finances, RadarOnline.com has been told.
Said a source: “She was looking at this as her saving grace, and now those hopes have been dashed.”
The 42-year-old singer has been burning through her $60 million fortune, and is facing a financial crisis – and won’t be off the hook for nearly $1 million in annual child support payments for Sean, 19, and Jayden, 18, – her sons with ex Kevin Federline – until Jayden graduates high school at the end of this school year.
Friends fear Spears is finding new shopaholic ways to blow her cash, and a source said she was pinning her hopes on a Universal flick based on her memoir, The Woman in Me.
But development on the film has slowed, and a Tinseltown industry insider warned she could be cooling her heels a while before her life story makes it to the big screen.
Said a source: “The Britney biopic is not on a fast track an that is a reflection of the risks involved here, and nothing more.
“Sure, there’s a level of demand for the Britney movie that only increases every day that she stays away from the music business and live performing. People miss her, they miss the music.”
