Britney Spears has a message for anyone who expresses concern about her behavior in a car on a Los Angeles freeway last week: “I think I should get off the roof more.”
The 44-year-old pop star was photographed last week resting her head on the roof of a Mercedes G-wagon as she drove down Route 101, not far from her home in Thousand Oaks, Calif.
Gossip blogs TMZ and Page Six posted photos of Spears standing with her arms outstretched and her blonde hair swept back, as the car was reportedly traveling at speeds of up to 70 km/h.
Time may seem irrelevant to the charged person for driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol in the past four months.
But Spears herself was not driving, and she says that this time was not indicative of her health. She posted a blurry photo of herself standing in a car on Instagram.
“What people see for two seconds of my madness is to wrap me in the kings!!!!! yet the days and hours of my truth !!!!!! Nothing seems to be,” he wrote in the text of the post, which included a second photo of a little girl curled up in a ball.
CBC News has requested more information about the post, but has yet to hear from the Spears community.
Free Britney
Over the past 25 years, Spears’ personal life has gone from tabloid gossip to a feminist cause.
His supporters, most of them, say they want him to live a happy life of his own choosing, now that he is free from the controversial conservationist that controlled his life and money for almost 14 years.
I conservation sparked a movement, and the #FreeBritney hashtag caught on in early 2019, when some fans believed she was being forced into a mental hospital against her will.
After years of silence, Britney Spears pleaded with a judge to end her court-appointed conservatorship. The star said she allowed her father to control almost every aspect of her life.
It was completed in 2021, after a protracted legal battle in which Spears successfully contested the restrictions and checks on his life were “torturous.” He wanted the conservation work to end without checking his attitude.
That’s why there was concern earlier this year when Spears accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs in southern California.
Spears pleaded guilty in May to a charge known as “wet reckless driving” and was sentenced to a year of probation, instead of a prison sentence.
At the time, District Attorney Erik Nasarenko said the singer had taken “full responsibility” for his actions, and said it was important for him to follow the terms agreed to in court, which included continued drug treatment, weekly visits with a therapist and monthly visits with a psychiatrist.
The deal meant that Spears’ mental health was again scrutinized, and in the meantime, whenever he is pulled over, he must automatically submit to a search and sobriety test.
