The premiere of Britney Spears' autobiography took place on October 24, where the pop star shared many intimate stories from her life. Among them, she discusses her relationship with food during her father's guardianship. According to her, the diet plan included only chicken paired with canned vegetables. The regimen was so tight that there were instances where she had to plead with her ushers to allow her a hamburger. Her father, however, was inflexible about the restrictions.
The decision for Spears' father to supervise her diet was based on concerns about the artist's weight. According to him, Britney appeared overweight. Thus, Jamie Spears supervised the food his daughter was consuming to prevent overeating and intake of processed and fast food.

The global pop artist admits that her father's controlling nature caused her to develop insecurities. Despite eating conservatively, she felt unattractive and inadequate. She recalls eventually surrendering and complying with her father's demands.
