Britney Spears' memoir is coming out soon, but only a part of the story is going to be told in her voice when it comes to the audio version -- the rest will be handled by a surprise celeb guest ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to the publisher of "The Woman in Me" tell TMZ ... Britney has already recorded the voice-over folks will hear when they buy the audiobook, but we're hearing she only recorded herself narrating a portion.

We don't know how much she recorded, but we've been told she did not narrate any chapters having to do with her family -- and, presumably, much of the book will cover that topic. Our sources say she didn't record audio for those sections because she found them too painful to retell in her own words.

So, as a remedy ... another celeb was tapped to record the rest of 'TWIM' -- which comes out on Oct. 24 -- although it's unclear who was on the mic. Our sources tell us the publisher was really pushing for Reese Witherspoon to pick up the baton, but she wasn't available to do it.

We're told only female celebs were approached, and they eventually landed on someone suitable who's completed the recording ... and the whole audiobook is ready for the masses.

Remember, Britney was on the fence about doing an audio version of the book at all -- something she was unsure of dating back to July.

With that said, it's perhaps not surprising they got her to agree to narrate at least some of it -- audiobooks are a huge part of any new book rollout these days because they're big-time sellers.

Seeing how Britney got paid a fortune for this memoir -- it makes sense Simon & Schuster wanted to get its money's worth by producing the audiobook.

El estreno mundial de la película de Taylor Swift sobre su gira "Eras" no estaría completa sin pulseras de la amistad en abundancia, y los padres de la cantante se unieron a la fiesta con sus mayores fans, ¡los que incluyen a Flavor Flav!

Scott y Andrea Swift estuvieron muy contentos en el gran estreno de su hija el miércoles por la noche en The Grove, Los Ángeles. Andrea fue vista intercambiando pulseras y pasándolo bien con una fan durante toda la noche.

Andrea no pudo evitar darle un abrazo a la Swiftie después de recibir el accesorio que le dieron, que decía: "Te amo mamá, muchas gracias", y ella se aseguró de devolver el gesto buscando un brazalete para darle en recompensa.

Una de las muchas celebridades que se presentó fue Flavor Flav, un Swiftie de larga data, después de tomarse una foto con los papás de Taylor, también recibió una pulsera de Scott que decía "Papa Swift". Al parecer esta no estaba a la venta.

Flav también le dio a Scott un brazalete, ¡incluso comprobó dos veces que estuviera en su muñeca!

Esta no es la primera vez que Flav conoce a los padres de Taylor, como informamos, el rapero les dio un gran abrazo en su concierto en el SoFi Stadium en agosto y estaba engalanado con pulseras de la amistad allí, también.

Scott incluso le regaló algunas uñetas.

Taylor Swift's world premiere of her "Eras" tour film wouldn't be complete without friendship bracelets galore ... and the singer's parents joined in on the fun with her biggest fans -- which included Flavor Flav!

Scott and Andrea Swift were all smiles at the big premiere of their daughter's epic concert movie Wednesday night at The Grove in L.A. -- Andrea was spotted trading and having fun with a fan throughout the night.

Andrea couldn't help but give the Swiftie a hug after getting the accessory from them, which said, "I love you mama thank you so much" ... and she made sure to return the favor by finding a bracelet to give right back.

One of the many celebs who showed up was big-time Swiftie, Flavor Flav -- after snapping a pic with Taylor's pops, they got into the bracelet trading biz, too ... with Scott giving Flav a "Papa Swift" one that apparently is NOT for trading.

Flav gave Scott one to keep all for himself, too ... even double-checking that it'll stay on his wrist!

This isn't the first time Flav has met Taylor's 'rents -- as we reported, the rapper gave them big hugs at her SoFi Stadium concert back in August, and he was decked out in friendship bracelets there, too.

Scott even gave him some sweet guitar picks to pass out to the crowd.

Una madre israelí que consiguió huir de los terroristas de Hamás con su hija recién nacida rompió a llorar y a lamentarse al enterarse —en plena entrevista— de que su marido no había salido con vida.

Shaylee Atary estaba hablando con Sky News sobre su aterradora huida, diciendo que los agresores de Hamás irrumpieron en la casa de su familia en Kfar Aza el sábado después de oír caer bombas mientras se preparaba para alimentar a su bebé.

Ella dice que tomó a su hija y salió corriendo del edificio, escondiéndose durante 27 horas antes de que fueran encontradas y rescatadas, pero su marido —Yahav Winner— no lo hizo con ella.

Shaylee tenía la esperanza de que Yahav también había sobrevivido, pero la entrevista dio un giro increíblemente sombrío cuando —mientras la cámara estaba rodando— su familia recibió la llamada horrible que estaba muerto.

Al instante, Shaylee rompió a llorar, rodeada de sus familiares, quienes la acompañaron en su pérdida.

Según los informes, más de 2.200 personas han muerto en ambos bandos del conflicto, más de mil por el ataque terrorista inicial lanzado por Hamás el sábado. Desde entonces, otras 8.000 han resultado heridas.

An Israeli mother, who managed to flee Hamas terrorists with her newborn daughter, burst into tears and wailed as she found out -- in the middle of an interview -- her husband didn't make it out alive.

Shaylee Atary was talking with Sky News about her terrifying escape, saying Hamas aggressors broke into their family's Kfar Aza home Saturday after hearing bombs falling while getting ready to feed her baby.

She says she took their child and bolted out of the building, hiding for 27 hours before they were found and rescued ... but her husband, Yahav Winner, didn't make it out with her.

Shaylee was holding out hope Yahav had also survived, but the interview took an incredibly grim turn when -- as the camera was rolling -- her family got the horrifying call that he was dead.

Instantly, Shaylee broke down in tears, surrounded by family members as they began mourning their loss.

Reportedly, more than 2,200 people have been killed on both sides of the conflict -- more than a thousand by the initial terrorist attack launched by Hamas on Saturday. Since then another 8,000 have been injured.

9:08 AM PT -- Según la policía, Sergio Brown fue detenido por el asesinato en primer grado de su madre. Será extraditado a Illinois por el cargo.

El ex jugador de la NFL, Sergio Brown, ha sido detenido en el sur de California, TMZ Sports ha confirmado lo casi cuatro semanas después de que su madre fue encontrada muerta en Illinois.

Según los registros de la cárcel, el ex defensive back fue llevado a una cárcel de San Diego el martes. Nuestras fuentes nos dicen que el arresto se deriva de una orden de arresto en Illinois relacionada con la muerte de su madre, Myrtle Brown, en septiembre.

CNN agregó el miércoles que Sergio fue encontrado recientemente en México por las autoridades y deportado después de que se enteraron de la orden de arresto.

Ahora se espera que sea transportado pronto a Illinois para enfrentar cargos en el caso.

Como informamos, Brown había sido visto en México bailando y de fiesta en los días posteriores a la muerte de Myrtle. También fue visto en un video selfie divagando sobre el fallecimiento de Myrtle y las "noticias falsas".

Las autoridades de Illinois, por su parte, han guardado silencio sobre la investigación de la muerte de la madre de Sergio, aunque los funcionarios dijeron que han dictaminado el fallecimiento de la mujer de 73 años de edad como un homicidio después de que su cuerpo fue descubierto cerca de un arroyo con aparentes lesiones de asalto.

Las solicitudes de comentarios del Departamento de Policía de Maywood el miércoles no fueron devueltas inmediatamente.

Sergio, que fue estrella en Notre Dame, jugó en la NFL de 2010 a 2016, comenzando 15 juegos.

9:08 AM PT -- According to cops, Sergio Brown was taken in on a warrant for First-Degree Murder in the death of his mom. He will be extradited to Illinois on the charge.

Former NFL player Sergio Brown has been arrested in Southern California, TMZ Sports has confirmed ... nearly four weeks after his mother was found dead in Illinois.

According to jail records, the ex-defensive back was booked into a San Diego jail on Tuesday. Our sources tell us the arrest stems from a warrant in Illinois related to the September death of his mom, Myrtle Brown.

CNN added on Wednesday that Sergio was recently found in Mexico by authorities and deported after they became aware of the warrant.

He's now expected to be transported soon to Illinois to face charges in the case.

As we reported, Brown had been seen in Mexico dancing and partying in the days following Myrtle's death. He was also spotted in a selfie video from the country rambling about Myrtle's passing and "fake news."

Authorities in Illinois, meanwhile, have been largely mum on the investigation into Sergio's mother's death ... though officials did say they've ruled the 73-year-old's passing as a homicide after her body was discovered near a creek with apparent assault injuries.

Requests for comment from the Maywood Police Dept. on Wednesday were not immediately returned.

Sergio, who starred at Notre Dame, played in the NFL from 2010 to 2016 ... starting 15 games.

La estrella de "El Oso" y "Shameless", Jeremy Allen White, está dispuesto a demostrar que no está bebiendo para pasar tiempo con sus hijas, y si recae, no podrá verlas más.

Según los nuevos documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ, Jeremy accedió a las pruebas de alcohol como parte de un acuerdo de custodia con su esposa, la actriz Addison Timlin.

Jeremy se someterá a una prueba de alcohol hasta cinco veces por semana cuando esté con sus hijas Ezer y Dolores y si se descubre que está bebiendo, perderá la custodia inmediatamente.

Si Jeremy da positivo en alguno de esos exámenes, deberá hacerse la prueba nuevamente, 15 minutos después, para asegurarse de que el resultado sea exacto.

Los documentos dicen que Jeremy y Addison acordaron compartir la custodia física y legal, pero el tiempo de custodia de Jeremy tiene condiciones. Otra de ellas es que debe asistir a al menos una reunión de Alcohólicos Anónimos a la semana, además de otra terapia.

TMZ dio la noticia, Addison le pidió el divorcio en mayo después de tres años de matrimonio.

La ex pareja parecía llevarse bien en agosto, cuando ambos estuvieron en la práctica de fútbol de una de sus hijas, pero aún tienen que poner fin a su divorcio.

"The Bear" and "Shameless" star Jeremy Allen White is open to proving he's not boozing in order to spend time with his kids ... and if he slips up, he won't be able to see them.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Jeremy agreed to alcohol testing as part of a custody agreement with his estranged wife, actress Addison Timlin.

Jeremy will be tested for booze up to five times a week when he has custody of their two daughters ... Ezer and Dolores ... and if he's found to be drinking, he loses custody ASAP.

If Jeremy has a positive test for alcohol, he gets to retest again 15 minutes later to make sure the test is accurate.

The docs say Jeremy and Addison agreed to share joint physical and legal custody ... but Jeremy's custodial time has strings attached, and he's also got to attend at least one Alcoholics Anonymous meeting a week, plus other therapy.

TMZ broke the story ... Addison filed for divorce back in May after 3 years of marriage.

The exes seemed to get along fine in August when they were both at their kids' soccer practice ... but they have yet to finalize their divorce.

Look out, Bronny James' college opponents -- LeBron says you'll be going up against a guy with just as much athleticism as he had during his rookie year in the NBA ... so says the King himself.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar's praise came after one X user shared his assessment of the 19-year-old USC freshman while sharing his rim-shaking highlights on Tuesday ... claiming, "Too (sic) say Bronny just as athletic or if not more than Bron was at his age isn’t wild! He’s doing this at 6'2" not 6'8" 🤷🏾‍♂️."

LBJ got wind of the post ... and he couldn't agree more.

"Exactly!!!" the four-time NBA champ replied ... claiming anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about.

"He's definitely just as if not right there at his age. The casuals just like to argue about 💩 they literally don’t know about."

Even though it's coming from his own father, it's high praise ... considering LeBron burst onto the NBA scene as an 18-year-old phenom -- eventually earning Rookie of the Year honors after averaging 20.9 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists.

Bronny is hoping to get back on the court soon after suffering cardiac arrest earlier this year ... and while he's got big shoes to fill following his pops' footsteps, mock drafts have him being an NBA talent next year.

Mauricio Umansky dice que sus percances en "Dancing with the Stars" la semana pasada se debieron directamente al tráiler de "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", el que profundizó en su matrimonio con Kyle Richards, y apareció justo antes de que saliera a bailar.

Mauricio se abrió sobre sus movimientos en el episodio de la noche del martes, diciendo a su pareja de baile, Emma Slater, que se quedó en blanco con los pasos de la semana pasada porque el tráiler del show televisivo lo desconcertó.

El tráiler indaga en su matrimonio, con varias de las coprotagonistas de Kyle incluso planteando cuestiones de infidelidad, algo que él y Kyle dicen que es mentira.

Mauricio dice que sintió una presión adicional porque sus hijos estaban entre el público, y por eso todo se vino abajo en la pista de baile.

Los fans del programa saben que trató de improvisar su rutina de salsa a mitad de camino, olvidando los movimientos y terminando con un 12 de 30, la puntuación más baja de la noche.

Aun así, se salvó, suerte que no corrió Jamie Lynn Spears, quien fue eliminada.

Mauricio Umansky says his "DWTS" mishaps last week were a direct result of the "RHOBH" trailer, which dug deep into his marriage with Kyle Richards ... and dropped right before he put on his dancin' shoes.

Mauricio opened up about the flubbed steps on Tuesday night's episode ... telling his dance partner, Emma Slater, he blacked out on the moves last week because the trailer unnerved him.

The trailer digs into his marriage, with several of Kyle's costars even raising issues of infidelity  ... something he and Kyle call B.S.

Mauricio says he felt additional pressure because his kids were in the audience... so it all kinda came tumbling down on the dance floor.

Fans of the show know he tried improvising his Salsa routine about halfway through, forgetting the moves and ending up with a 12 out of 30 -- the lowest score of the night.

Still, they didn't get the boot despite the rough Salsa ... the door was shown to Jamie Lynn Spears, instead.

There's at least half a dozen American citizens who are unaccounted for in Israel following deadly attacks from Hamas ... including a mother and daughter visiting from Illinois.

President Joe Biden says 14 Americans have already died in the Hamas terrorist attack, with the death toll already standing at 1,700 and counting.

It's unclear if the six Americans reported missing in Gaza are dead or alive, but their families are holding out hope for a safe return ... and Biden says more Americans are likely among those who have been taken hostage by terrorists.

In addition to the Illinois mother and her teen daughter, there's also a 23-year-old who was at the music festival where Hamas attacked and took hostages; a soldier with the Israeli Defense Force; a 35-year-old father of two; and a 66-year-old grandmother.

Judith Tai Raanan and Natalie Raanan traveled from their Chicago-area suburb to Israel last month to visit relatives, and they were reported missing during Saturday's attack and are feared to have been kidnapped by Palestinian gunmen, their family told ABC 7 Chicago.

Natalie graduated from high school this past spring and their Illinois synagogue is praying she and her mother are safe.

Hersch Goldberg-Polin was at the desert music festival that became a target for Hamas terrorists ... and his parents told the Jerusalem Post he texted them Saturday morning saying "I love you" and "I'm sorry" before going radio silent.

Hersch was born in Berkley, CA before moving to Israel with his family in 2008 ... he had just celebrated a birthday before going to the rave, where Hamas killed hundreds of festivalgoers.

Itay Chen's a 19-year-old dual citizen serving in the IDF and he's been "missing in action" from his post in Gaza since Saturday, his father told CNN.

Chen's father says his son basically vanished along with his military unit and the family is hopeful he surfaces in time to make it to his younger brother's upcoming Bar Mitzvah in Italy.

Adrienne Neta, a mother of four and grandmother of seven, is thought to have been taken hostage by Hamas ... her family told Fox News they think she was kidnapped from her home, where she's lived for decades since moving from Fresno, Calif.

Neta's family says they were on the phone with her when terrorists entered her home ... and they heard her screaming.

Sagui Dekel-Chen, a father of two with another baby on the way, was among those in his neighborhood who fought back against a terrorist onslaught before going missing.

Hay al menos media docena de ciudadanos estadounidenses cuyo paradero en Israel aún es desconocido en Israel después de los ataques mortales de Hamás, incluyendo una madre y su hija de visita desde Illinois.

El presidente Joe Biden dice que 14 estadounidenses ya han muerto en el ataque terrorista de Hamás, con un total de muertes que ya se eleva a las 1.700 y contando.

No está claro si los seis estadounidenses dados por desaparecidos en Gaza están vivos o muertos, pero sus familias mantienen la esperanza de que puedan volver seguros a casa. Biden ha comentado que es probable que haya más estadounidenses entre los que han sido tomados como rehenes por los terroristas.

Además de la madre de Illinois y su hija adolescente, también hay un joven de 23 años, que estaba en el festival de música donde Hamas atacó y tomó rehenes, un soldado de la Fuerza de Defensa de Israel, un hombre de 35 años, padre de dos hijos y una abuela de 66 años.

Judith Tai Raanan y Natalie Raanan viajaron el mes pasado desde su barrio de Chicago a Israel para visitar a unos parientes y fueron dadas por desaparecidas durante el ataque del sábado. Se teme que ambas fueron secuestradas por pistoleros palestinos, dijo su familia a ABC 7 Chicago.

Natalie se graduó de la escuela secundaria en la primavera pasada y su sinagoga de Illinois está orando para que ella y su madre estén a salvo.

Hersch Goldberg-Polin estaba en el festival de música que se convirtió en un objetivo para los terroristas de Hamás. Sus padres dijeron al Jerusalem Post que les envió un mensaje de texto el sábado por la mañana diciendo "Te amo" y "Lo siento" antes de desaparecer.

Hersch nació en Berkley, California. Luego se mudó con su familia a Israel en 2008 y recientemente había celebrado su cumpleaños antes de ir al festival, donde Hamás mató a cientos de asistentes.

Itay Chen es un joven de 19 años con doble nacionalidad que sirve en las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel y se encuentra "desaparecido en combate" de su puesto en Gaza desde el sábado, dijo su padre a CNN.

El padre de Chen dice que su hijo desapareció junto a su unidad militar y la familia tiene la esperanza de que salga a la superficie a tiempo para llegar al próximo Bar Mitzvah de su hermano menor en Italia.

Adrienne Neta, madre de cuatro hijos y abuela de siete, se cree que ha sido tomada como rehén por Hamás. Su familia dijo a Fox News que piensan que fue secuestrada de su casa, donde ha vivido por décadas desde que se mudó de Fresno, California.

La familia de Neta dice que estaban al teléfono con ella cuando los terroristas entraron en su casa y la oyeron gritar.

Sagui Dekel-Chen es padre de dos hijos y tiene otro bebé en camino. Él fue una de las personas que se defendió del ataque terrorista en su barrio antes de desaparecer.

Mary Lou Retton -- an Olympic gold-winning gymnast  -- is currently fighting for her life in the ICU ... this according to her daughter, who says her mom is battling a rare form of pneumonia.

McKenna Kelley shared the sad news on Tuesday via her Instagram story with a photo of a SpotFund account that she started for Retton's medical costs.

"Please help my mom continue to fight," Kelley said in the post.

The fundraiser says the 55-year-old former athlete is unable to breathe on her own due to the rare form of pneumonia.

"Out of respect for her and her privacy, I will not disclose all details," Keller said on the page. "However, I will disclose that she not insured."

"We ask that if you could help in any way, that 1) you PRAY! and 2) if you could help us with finances for the hospital bill."

Kelley added, "ANYTHING, absolutely anything, would be so helpful for my family and my mom. Thank y’all so very much!"

The fundraiser has a goal of $50k and as of Tuesday, over 79 donors have contributed.

"If anyone can WIN we know it’s YOU! GEAUX MARYLOU!" one fan said on the page. "We are praying hard for you from La!"

Retton was a massive star in gymnastics ... in fact, she made history as the first American woman to win the all-around gold in the 1984 Olympics. She also won two silvers and bronzes that same year.

After retiring, she was inducted into the International Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 1997 and was the first woman to be selected into the Houston Sports Hall of Fame in 2020.

Mary Lou Retton —una gimnasta ganadora del oro olímpico— está actualmente luchando por su vida en la UCI, esto de acuerdo a su hija, quien dice que su madre está luchando contra una forma rara de neumonía.

McKenna Kelley compartió la triste noticia el martes a través de su historia de Instagram con una foto de una cuenta SpotFund que ella comenzó para los gastos médicos de Retton.

"Por favor, ayuden a mi mamá a seguir luchando", dijo Kelley en el post.

La recaudación de fondos dice que la ex atleta de 55 años no puede respirar por sí misma debido a la rara forma de neumonía.

"Por respeto a ella y a su privacidad, no revelaré todos los detalles", dijo Keller en la página. "Sin embargo, revelaré que ella no tiene seguro".

"Les pedimos que si pueden ayudar de alguna manera, que 1) ¡OREN! y 2) si pueden ayudarnos con las finanzas para la factura del hospital".

Kelley añadió: "CUALQUIER cosa, absolutamente cualquier cosa, sería de gran ayuda para mi familia y mi madre. Muchísimas gracias a todos".

La recaudación de fondos tiene una meta de $50k, y hasta el martes, más de 79 donantes han contribuido.

"¡Si alguien puede GANAR sabemos que eres TÚ! GEAUX MARYLOU!", dijo un fan en la página. "¡Estamos rezando mucho por ti desde Los Ángeles!".

Retton era una reconocida estrella en la gimnasia, de hecho, hizo historia como la primera mujer estadounidense en ganar el oro en los Juegos Olímpicos de 1984. También ganó dos medallas de plata y bronce ese mismo año.

Después de retirarse, fue incluida en el Salón Internacional de la Fama de la Gimnasia en 1997 y fue la primera mujer en ser seleccionada en el Salón de la Fama de los Deportes de Houston en 2020.
