Britney Spears looks like a body-shame dancer gets backlash from fans

Not all went smoothly after the incident The success of Britney Spears’ ‘Hold Me Closer’.

She’s still dealing with strained family relationships, years of trauma, and friction on social media.

But supporting Britney and her freedom doesn’t mean rooting for her, even if she’s wrong.

Fans are accusing her of body-shaming in a post from Monday night. teeth.

Before delving into the understandable controversy, let’s address the post itself.

First, Britney shared a photo and a quote: “It turns out there’s only one way to look thin: with fat people.”

“I wish I had picked a nanny for my kids…my dancer…” she began captioning.

“I mean, if there was a Christina Aguilera dancer,” Britney thought, adding, “I would have looked so tiny…”

Then she asked: “Why don’t you talk about it??”

Britney added, “Wouldn’t you feel a little more confident if you could choose where you live?”

Britney went on to say she wished she could have chosen a location where she “dated someone I called on the phone.”

“And who was on stage with me!!!”

Britney later said, “It’s hard at times to see how much of my femininity was taken away from me at the time.”

“And,” she lamented, “everybody sat in the back and said nothing!!!”

Britney concludes:

In general, it’s certainly a good thing that Britney is free to speak her mind. But some words hurt, even unintentionally.

Simply put, Britney sounds like Christina Aguilera’s dancer body-shaming, among other things.

(Christina apparently thought so…because she publicly unfollowed Britney.)

Comments were soon pouring in, begging Britney to either delete her post or edit it. And of course an apology.

Clearly, many of Britney’s longtime supporters felt ripped off by this.

Is Britney the covert villain making fun of the backup dancers? Are people just misunderstood?

made by britney a lot Good point about her freedom… So why did she bring someone else’s body in there?

During that time, she had some very vocal fans who urged people to stay away from her business.

It’s only natural that Britney is happy to be free and able to speak her mind.

They would rather have her speak freely without criticism than receive feedback, let alone blame.

Obviously, supporting Britney and her freedom doesn’t mean rooting for her when she’s wrong.

Well… you can. But it definitely shouldn’t.

That said, there may be nuances here that explain why Britney thought nothing of her post.

First and foremost, Britney spent nearly 14 years in guardianship.

She didn’t have the normal social opportunities most humans have at their disposal.

In a way, it’s no surprise to hear that she’s “trapped” in the culture of 2008.

People aren’t insulting Britney when they ask if she knows the term “body shaming” or what it means.

First, she grew up and rose to stardom in the 1990s. In this era, even thin women were targets of vicious body her policing.

Clearly, Britney has body image issues. She has expressed this many times on her social media, if not in the words.

Also, remember the anecdote she shared earlier this year?

When Britney heard her friend’s 12-year-old daughter request a cheeseless sandwich, she asked if they were counting calories.

why? Because Britney herself began doing so at the same age, she was surprised by her friend’s hostile response to her question.

Britney clearly didn’t understand why that question, rooted in diet culture and eating disorders, was unwelcome.

why? Because that kind of toxicity is the only attitude towards the human body she’s ever known.

With that in mind, body shaming is not okay.
