Anyone following pop culture in the early 2000s will recall the moment paparazzi captured Britney Spears shaving her own head. Following the incident, Spears, then 25, checked into a rehab facility. But why did she take hold of the razor in that Los Angeles salon? The 41-year-old opens about her mindset in that moment in 2007 in her new memoir “The Woman in Me.' The gesture was meant to be a big 'F--- you' to the world, she said.
” The February 2007 shaving came as Spears was publicly attempting to see her two sons, Jayden James and Sean Preston, amid her divorce from Federline. Spears wrote that she 'gave some material.' 'I went into a hair salon, and I took the clippers, and I shaved off all my hair,' Spears writes. 'Everyone thought it was hilarious. Look how crazy she is! Even my parents acted embarrassed by me. But nobody seemed to understand that I was simply out of my mind with grief.
