Spears, 40, who last month was freed from the
court-imposed arrangement in 2008 sought by her father, said in
a lengthy Instagram post on Monday that she wanted to "push
myself a bit more and do things that scare me but not too much"
in 2022.
“I guess it seems odd to most why I don’t even do music
anymore... People have no idea the awful things they have done
to me personally and after what I've been through, I'm scared of
people and the business!!!,” wrote Spears, who last performed
publicly in October 2018.
"Not doing my music anymore is my way of saying 'Fuck You' in a
sense when it only actually benefits my family by ignoring my
real work. It’s like I’ve subconsciously let them win,' the
"Toxic" singer added.
Spears, who is engaged to boyfriend Sam Asghari, complained to
the judge in charge of her conservatorship case earlier this
year that she found her father Jamie Spears, who was in charge
of her career, controlling.
Jamie Spears was removed as conservator in September. He has
said his only goal was to help his daughter rehabilitate her
career after she suffered a mental health breakdown in 2007 and
that he always acted in her best interest.
