Britney Spears reflects on her acting experience during the filming of the 2002 movie Crossroads, revealing the challenges she faced while immersing herself in the role, People reports. Despite no issues with the production team, Spears admits that acting had a profound impact on her mental state, leading her to inadvertently adopt Method acting without a clear understanding of how to detach from the character. As a result, she found herself transformed into someone else entirely, both in demeanor and speech, for the duration of the filming.

The pop icon candidly shares that her brief foray into acting concluded with Crossroads, a decision she feels relieved about. Recounting the casting process for The Notebook, Spears acknowledges the allure of reuniting with Ryan Gosling, her former co-star from the Mickey Mouse Club. However, she emphasizes her gratitude for not taking the role, as it would have diverted her attention from working on her music.
