Pop sensation Britney Spears is just finishing up working on what will be her eighth studio album and revealed that it has been a therapeutic process. 

During a new interview with Ryan Seacrest, the 'Hold It Against Me' beauty explained that she opens up about her split from former fiancé Jason Trawick on the record so it helped her to come to terms with that in a way:

"It's the most personal album I've ever done. After having a huge breakup this year, I had a lot to say in the studio, so it was nice to have a therapy like that and to be able to share that with my fans. The stuff that really comes from the heart is usually the best stuff and has the best beat and really kind of helps you get over the breakup really easy, cause you sing about it and have to think about it every night."

She added: "But then you're like, 'It's okay! I'm performing now so it's totally fine.' It's like a therapeutic way to get over it."

Spears will perform the first date on her upcoming Piece of Me Las Vegas residency on December 27 and is set to conclude the first run on February 22, 2014.
