Britney Spears gives another insight into her life under the tutelage of her father on Instagram. These have “killed their dreams”.

Britney Spears (39) continues to fight against the guardianship of her father Jamie Spears (69). In an Instagram post the singer expressed herself again emotionally about her situation. As an occasion, Spears took criticism of her dance videos, which she records in her home and regularly shares with her followers. “You understand: I won’t appear on any stage in the foreseeable future if my father decides what to wear, say, do or think, I’ve been doing that for the past 13 years,” writes the 39-year-old. She preferred to post videos from her living room than from the stage in Las Vegas, “where some people were so far away they couldn’t even shake my hand”.

She won’t put on tons of make-up either, and instead of remixing her old songs, she will constantly try to bring her new music to the show for her true fans, adds the musician. “I don’t like my sister showing up at an awards ceremony and performing my songs for remixes! My supporters hurt me deeply,” says Spears, suggesting her problems with sister Jamie Lynn Spears (30), who was previously on social media as a supporter of her older sister.

Guardianship killed her dreams, Spears explains. “All I have is hope and hope is the only thing in this world that is very difficult to kill, even if people are still trying.” The singer also goes back to the documentaries that are in circulation about her. “I didn’t like the way you picked up on humiliating moments from the past as I’ve been through it a long time.” In the end, Spears addresses her critics directly and with clear words: “If you don’t want to see my precious ass dance in my living room or if it doesn’t meet your standards: go read a damn book.”

Singer criticizes hypocritical support

In the public dispute, the singer also received a lot of encouragement – which Spears does not perceive as positive from all sides, as she recently did in another post explained. For them, there is nothing worse than when loved ones who have never been there for them post things about their situation in order to publicly save face. “How can the people you love most dare to say anything at all. Were they there to offer a helping hand when I was drowning? No,” Spears insisted.

Since 2014, the singer and mother of two has been trying to break free from her father’s guardianship. Following a mental breakdown, Jamie Spears was appointed her guardian by a court in 2008. Since then, he has made decisions about her life and finances. Most recently, the singer was able to record a partial success for herself: In the future, she will be represented by the celebrity lawyer, whom she has chosen, Mathew Rosengart.
