Britney Spears has another hit on her hands, but this time, it's not music. Britney Spears' new memoir is flying off the shelves. In its first week of release, 'The Woman In Me' sold one-point-one-million copies across the United States, including e-books and audiobooks. On Wednesday, Spears said she poured her heart and soul into the memoir and thanked fans for their support. The only other celebrity memoir to sell more copies in its first week was "Spare," by Prince Harry.

A woman from San Diego is trying to appeal a traffic ticket to the U.S. Supreme Court. Susan Porter was given a ticket for honking her horn at a protest outside Republican Congressman Darrell Issa's office in 2017. She is going to the Supreme Court after her petitions were denied by a district court judge and an appeals court. Porter is fighting a California law that says drivers can only honk their horns because of imminent danger.

Add this to the list of places Jimmy Hoffa might be buried. The former Teamsters boss has been missing since 1975, and there have been dozens of theories about what happened to his body. A team of cold case experts is out with a report that says Hoffa is buried in the parking lot of American Family Field, the stadium that's home to baseball's Milwaukee Brewers. The group, The Case Breakers, says Hoffa's body is buried where third base used to be at the Brewers' former ballpark, County Stadium. The theory is that Hoffa's body was dug up and moved to the parking lot when the new stadium was built in 1996.

Mariah Carey is facing a new lawsuit for allegedly stealing the song "All I Want for Christmas is You." Andy Stone and Troy Powers wrote a song called "All I Want For Christmas Is You" in 1989, five years before Carey released her version. Stone recorded it under the artist name Vince Vance & the Valiants.The songs do not share lyrics or melodies. But that isn't stopping the songwriters from accusing Mariah Carey of copying their track, and are seeking damages in the amount of 20-million dollars. This lawsuit is nearly identical to one Stone filed last year and then dropped.
