Lukas Gage's Memoir Reveals Lifelong Britney Spears Fandom

In his recently published memoir, actor Lukas Gage has revealed the central role that pop superstar Britney Spears played in his formative years. According to the book, Gage, who is known for his roles in shows like White Lotus and You, often turned to Spears' music as a refuge from the "chaotic" world around him during his childhood.

Gage recounts an incident where he would belt out Spears' hit song "Lucky" in the bathroom, only to be mocked by his older brother's friends for "singing like a little bitch." However, Gage quickly realized that music, and Spears in particular, had the power to heal him. "I think she's made an impact on so many queer people," Gage tells Billboard, adding that he was "always drawn to these eccentric pop stars and people in pop culture."

Beyond his love for Spears, Gage's memoir also delves into his broader musical tastes, which included a fondness for punk and metal music, as well as a deep appreciation for American Idol and artists like Kelly Clarkson and Ashlee Simpson. Despite the criticism he faced for his eclectic musical preferences, Gage remained steadfast in his passion for pop and power ballads.

As Gage continues to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry, his memoir serves as a testament to the enduring impact that music, and particularly the work of artists like Britney Spears, can have on an individual's life and identity.
