Washington
(ANI):
Britney
Spears
admitted
that
she
fears
she
will
not
live
to
see
her
28th
birthday,
according
to
the
author
of
a
new
expose
about
the
troubled
pop
star.
Ian
Halperin,
a
biographer
and
journalist,
had
spent
18
months
studying
the
Toxic
singer
as
an
undercover
paparazzo,
getting
closer
to
the
star
and
her
inner
circle.
Halperin
has
penned
down
all
his
findings
in
a
new
book,
which
he
hopes
will
hit
the
shelves
by
Christmas
(08).
The
singer,
who
already
claims
to
be
suffering
from
drug
abuse,
bipolar
problems
and
suicidal
tendencies,
revealed
to
Halperin
personally
that
she
fears
she
will
die
at
27.
"She
told
me
she
feared
she'd
die
at
age
27
(her
current
age),
just
like
other
music
stars,
like
Janis
Joplin
and
Kurt
Cobain," Contactmusic
quoted
Halperin
as
saying.
The
biographer,
had
also
ironically
penned
a
book
about
Kurt
Cobain
-
who
lost
his
life
at
27.
Joplin
and
Cobain
aren't
the
only
members
of
the
sinister
27
Club,
rock
greats
Jimi
Hendrix,
Jim
Morrison
and
Brian
Jones
all
perished
before
their
28th
birthday.
Spears
will
be
turning
28-years-old
on
2
December
(08).
