BRITNEY Spears hit back at haters after ‘unflattering’ photos of her in a curve-hugging pink dress surfaced.
The pop singer was spotted at Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles on Monday.
Britney, 42, made her first public appearance after her ex, Justin Timberlake, was arrested in New York for driving while intoxicated.
She was returning from a short vacation in Mexico.
The Circus singer had on a pink bodycon tank top dress that reached just under her butt.
She went braless in the outfit, accessorizing with a choker necklace and chunky Birkenstock sandals.
Britney hid her eyes behind dark aviator sunglasses and wore a wide-brimmed hat.
She smiled in the photos but was less than pleased with the public reaction to them.
Britney took to her Instagram account, sharing a video of herself wearing the same dress.
This time, she ditched the sunglasses and hat and added tall white boots.
She smiled in the clip, holding the dress down over her butt, walking toward the camera, and tossing her hair over one shoulder.
Text over the clip read, “The night before the paps got THAT SHOT of me going to my car !!! Same dress and same girl !!! Look I get it I know my body is not perfect but I also know I don’t have cellulite on my legs the way the paps betray me !!!”
She wrote the same thing in her caption.
Britney added, “I also know the way the paps shoot me in public when I got out I look like a different person !!! It’s honestly abusive because I do feel like one of the most bullied people in the world !!! It’s the truth !!!”
The musician went on to say that it’s “not healthy for my heart or my health !!! I’m 122 and if I lost any more weight and was sick and believed those pics I would be in the hospital !!!”
In September 2021, Britney’s case returned to a Los Angeles courtroom where Judge Brenda Penny made a number of bombshell rulings, following her father’s decision to end the conservatorship the month prior.
She ruled to rid Jamie of his daughter’s conservatorship, however, it did not mean the end of the conservatorship altogether.
Speaking in court, Judge Brenda Penny said: “Based on what I read in the filings, and I read everything. I do believe the suspension of Jamie Spears is in the best interest of Britney Spears.
“The current situation is unattainable. The court finds the toxic environment Jamie Spears has created needs to be removed today.”
Following the judge’s decision, a temporary conservator was put in Jamie’s place for about a month.
In early November 2021, Jamie was back in court filing new legal documents that show he’s done fighting.
Jamie had previously demanded $2 million in exchange for stepping down but documents at the time showed that he was not seeking any further compensation.
On November 12, Judge Penny ruled in favor of the pop star, removing Jamie from the position of conservator without requiring any further mental examination from Britney.
She deleted the post shortly after it was shared.
Britney has been outspoken on social media as of late.
On June 21, she took a subtle dig at Justin Timberlake, 43.
Following news of his arrest, the award-winning singer shared a clip of herself dancing in a cheetah-print bathing suit.
She was in a hotel room in Las Vegas, Nevada at the time.
The bathing suit was low-cut, reaching down to her mid-stomach.
Britney paired the outfit with knee-high black boots and a small black string bikini top underneath.
In the video, which has since been deleted, she ran her hands down her torso and smiled.
She put her arms out in front of her and reached to the sides.
The musician then dipped down low, swaying her hips back and forth.
Britney ran her hand through her hair before tossing it in a circle.
She ended it by moving her hips and arms in different directions.
“I have no idea what’s going on with the hair, but obviously the ‘Something About Mary’ hair is a hit,” she wrote, referencing a popular Cameron Diaz film.
Cameron, 51, starred as Mary Jensen in the 1998 rom-com, Something About Mary.
“I haven’t danced around in a long time, so I was just playing around in my cheetah bathing suit,” she added.
Cameron dated Justin in 2003, months after he and Britney broke up.
They split in 2007, after rumors emerged that Justin was cheating with Playboy Bunny Zeo Gregory.
Fans seemed to believe Britney’s caption was her way of taking a swipe at Justin.
The N’Sync front man was arrested in Sag Harbor, New York for DWI.
He was released without bail on his own recognizance June 18.
Justin was charged with one count of DWI because he refused to take a breathalyzer test his criminal defense lawyer, Ed Burke, revealed.
The singer was driving a 2025 BMW UT.
He allegedly ran a stop sign and swerved into the opposite lane.
Cops said that Justin’s breath smelled of alcohol and said that he had glassy eyes, slow speech, was unsteady on his feet, and performed poorly on standardized field sobriety tests.
Justin told officers that he only had “one martini” and “followed his friends home.”
A witness, however, told The New York Post that he was “wasted” as he drank one of his friend’s drinks who went to the bathroom.
Justin is due back in court on July 26.
