She captioned the video post,
“30 sec to mars !!! Yep it’s my b-day all week and I know my Instagram has been down a few times but honestly, I did the last two times myself !!! Oops … I accidentally pressed the wrong button … damn that stupid button !!!”
“And jolly Santa is on his way y’all !!! My goal this year is to learn to be as COMFORTABLE with people as they are with me !!!!! I want to go to a wedding this year, grab the mic, sing a song or two, and fall down eight times !!! It’s my first year in 15 years being treated as an equal, and good God I didn’t know about this NO RULE THING !!!”
Later she apologized for the quality and visuals of the video and said,
“Pssst this video is so blurry, sorry!!! Is it a little awkward or weird to watch ??? DUH, that’s the whole point!!!”
The Grammy-winning singer hopes to become more “comfortable” around people, crash a wedding, and sing a few songs this year. With balloons and rose petals decorating her living room floor, Spears drank champagne on her birthday while the video clip set to Santa Baby by Eartha Kitt.
Sam Asghari Appealed To Britney Spears’ Fans To Respect Her Privacy
The actor and model husband of Britney Spears, Sam Asghari, reminded fans that boundaries should be maintained on social media. Before the return of Spears to Instagram, Asghari asked Spears’ fans to ease up on their scrutiny of her own Instagram activity. At that time he wrote on his Instagram story,
“Social media can be traumatizing. Sometimes it’s good to take a break. She has her voice and is a free woman.”
Aside from a few posts about Spears on his account, Asghari has posted a little on it in recent months. In continuation, he also addressed something in his story,
“I have respect for her privacy and I protect it at all times. Out of respect for her privacy, I don’t post her 247. I ask for permission if I ever do.”
He added,
“For my job I have to attend many events. It would be my honor if she joins. For her, those things are not fun. They’re [hectic] and full of stress. Specially since she’s been doing these things since 8 years old. Plus she already slayed every single one she has been to.”
Asghari did not refer to any specific her posts in his post, instead urging privacy for her, and wrote,
“I’ve always respected and supported her privacy with everything I’ve had. I ask of you supportive and protective fans to do the same. Sometimes being overprotective can cause more stress and damage.”
Fans, however, began to suspect that Spears was undergoing psychological trauma or abuse after repeatedly disappearing from Instagram.
