The fact that she doesn't want to be paid for her story says a lot about her. None of the celebrities would have do the same. Most of them now makes a business of their stories. Britney just put a memo on RUclips, she's a legend.
@@dannyechi2873 We don't know that. I'm sure she will write a book or have a documentary done. She deserves to be paid for that. She isnt "playing the victim", she IS a victim.
@@dannyechi2873 Hmmm... please open your mind and see that she is the victim. She's been used and abused by her own family for years! What do you call it when her father forces her to work and earn money that she doesn't see, put her in rehab to shut her up just because she voiced an opinion, control and spend her hard-earned money at his whim, force her on contraception so that she couldn't get pregnant, denying her the right to remarry, forcing her to take unnecessary drugs, forcing her to have therapy, keeping her a prisoner in her own home? I call that abuse, of which she's the victim! She's finally free to speak up for herself without fear of consequences, the ability to take back control of her own life and make decisions on matters which affect her. She's able to marry her boyfriend and able to remove that contraceptive device and have children. Good for her!
The media describing this as a “rant” when in reality it couldn’t be further from that. It’s a rather calm and collected statement by Britney, full of compassion and empathy for others- all of which shows incredible emotional maturity given the level of abuse she has endured and is talking about.
Yes she is so calm talking us through everything, not a sight of the mental illness her family claims she has… I do believe she is playing fool on her Instagram account, so her attackers underestimate her
Yeah it's expected at this point. This is her calmly telling her story and yet again it gives everyone another reason to gaslight her and call her 'crazy'. At this point I think it's just personal thing they have for her. Jealousy or whatever it may be. Cause if this was a random person telling this everyone would have sympathy. But since it's Britney spears, the biggest superstar EVER, they feel the need to call her 'crazy'. People in general are just disgusting. Look at the celebs they stan, and build up and look at the ones they tear down. They're so blind and lacking intelligence.
“If you’re a weird introvert, odd ball like me, who feels alone a lot of the time, and needed to hear a story like this today so you don’t feel alone, know this, my life has been far from easy and you’re not alone.” - Britney Spears 2022🌠
@@GameChanger597 introverts get drained by being around people and need time to recover in their own company. She can be famous and still be an introvert.
That was the most empathetic, sane, intelligent, compassionate statement I’ve heard from any celeb recently. The audacity of her family and the people that enabled her unjust conservatorship to say this woman was “crazy and unstable” boggles my mind
"If you're a weird, introvert, oddball like me, who feels alone a lot of the time and you needed to hear a story like this today so you don't feel alone, know this: my life has been far from easy and you're not alone"
God, this hit me so hard. I'm glad she's doing this on her terms. I feel so bad that the media has be vilifying and belittling her. They have no idea what she's been through and how horrible her "family" has been to her.
Crazy I opened right at a time I needed to hear that I’m not alone. 🙏🙏🙏🥺 God bless her. She really touched my heart. My heart hurts hearing all that she went through. MANY will be helped by her sharing her personal experience & pain.
She could have made an INSANE amount of money to sell her story, but she didn’t. She did it for free so people suffering with the feelings she’s had to deal with don’t feel alone. If that doesn’t show people how pure her heart is, nothing will. We hear you Britney 💜👑
Yet her sister wrote a book I don't blame her for being so angry! Her family made her a literal cash clone. I knew in my heart something wasn't right. Her dancing got robotic because everything she went through! It makes so much sense now. Love you Britney so much have since 1999 at 8 years old and will always love her 💜
@@karlc2869 why bring up other singers? Britney is opening up the suffering she went through, people should care about what she said not use it as an excuse to talk about other singers for no reason.
@@karlc2869 we don't need to do this. no comparing necessary. Taylor has started taking back her soul in her own way, there's no need for this pissing contest.
This choice, rather than a fortune-granting interview, is REVOLUTIONARY and honestly shows just how wise and real Britney Spears is. Not too many people like this in game, let alone the real world.
This is a horror story. Can you imagine? Can you IMAGINE being in the position she was in and then the people closest to you decide to set you up as “crazy” to the entire world. Which in turn destroys your mental health. Your kids are ripped away from you. Your freedom. EVERYTHING. I cannot believe she went though this and still comes across as intelligent and strong as she does. We love you Brit and I’m completely blown away that you made it out the other side. You are strong, independent, beautiful and talented.
It is a horror story. I've just really learned about what happened to her and I can't even believe such a thing exists for such lame lame reasons and so utterly corrupt! My God this poor woman. She deserves everything good.
it rlly pisses me off that every single person even her own family treated her like shit every fucking day 4 no damn reason. the other night i prayed 4 everybody 2 take back everything theyve done & give her the truest, most sincere, most heartfelt apology ever & 4 her 2 4give as them as sweet of a person she is
@JennyLouLou How can one be well in October 2023 after having gone through THAT? It is possible to dismantle a personality of the most mentally healthy person, if you do what they did to her. Human psyché can only overcome so much. Having someone watch you change? No door to the bathroom? Tons of blood drawn, MRTs, and working from 8 to 6 every day even on weekends on top of it? Of course, she is not well today! Who would be?
I don’t think she’s alive now. The book doesn’t cover much of any of this stuff. The dancing videos look strange and AI generated and make no sense. You honestly think the girl in the videos is the same one talking in this clip? The deep fakes they can make now are staggering. I pray that sweet woman is ok now in heaven or earth. No words :(
This woman is made of steel. How is she still capable of being this clear and sane after more than a decade of abuse and betrayal by literally ALL of her family, now even her boys! Seriously, I would freak out without knowing who to believe and trust. She has a pure heart and deserves all the happiness in the world. I hope all the people who caused her this trauma pay for what they did, by the law of men or God.
Well I think your kids were brainwashed I think they were for things in their head and all that stuff so I think Kevin made him think that everything was OK and normal that everybody was helping her and all that stuff and her and plus her family was probably made the boys think that is sad because now she has been betrayed by her own kids hopefully when they get older they realize before it’s too late
Very well said, no one in her family deserves to be a part of her life. She should work on forgiving only for her own healing but never have any part in their lives. They are so dangerously caustic and have emotional harmed her in every possible way. I worry that she could possibly lose herself in all the anger that must follow something so traumatic as having your entire family abuse you and take from you for years. There are so many people who are wishing nothing but the best for her It takes a long time to heal from this.
@@tammiepage6489 I agree 💯. It's called parental alienation. It happens all the time, I raised my Gdaughter for 7 years since she was 3 after her Mom abandoned her, her Mom came back 2 yrs ago & now she doesn't speak to me & only visits her Dad who has full legal custody. Worse, it's child abuse. She made straight A's in Gifted classes, now she can't even go to school for anxiety. She self-harms & is suicidal. WORSE, this is not even uncommon behavior for kids who are manipulated by a parent. Much ❤️
This is a true story of HUMAN TRAFFICKING! How in the fuck is no one in jail for this?! This is absolutely terrifying and disgusting that anyone could be treated this way, ESPECIALLY by their own family!!! Britney you are a beautiful person. You deserve the world. Thank you for sharing your story ❤❤❤
Yes, trafficked by her father....wanted to add, her parents put themselves at the front; collected Brittanys earnings ..... and forced Brittany to a back seat where taking advantage was the norm....
When she said she didn't understand why she was being treated that way but knew deep in her heart that she didn't deserve it, says it all. So many people have felt the exact same way and understand what she means. And we'll have her back.
This audio track proves how absolutely coherent, articulate, and intelligent our girl Brit really is, and how big of liars her family and their people are… it’s sad that she had to go through this. She’s so resilient ❤️ I wish her healing vibes and happiness in life.
I love how she declined money and media exposure, she really said "f**k the money, I am here to share my story and help others". She made me feel less alone with that raw and personal audio.
She’s a real one who knows pain . She doesn’t deserve harassment and abuse. We should all support her and listen and believe .... send praise to her for talking etc. I fear she will always be a slave sadly
@@REALCrazyCritic Stop saying that, troll. She isn't a slave anymore. Please get off this video, REAL CRAZY CRITIC you Britney hating troll. Britney is free now. Stop hating, dude. Thanks, dude. Britney 4 eva, dude.
@@REALCrazyCritic Again, she's no longer a slave. Please have your eyes and ears checked, hater. Thanks again, dude. Britney Spears forevermore, dude. #britneyforevermore
I totally agree and she can make u laugh in a good way just being herself like an angel that didn’t really get to shine for that long and now has to find that light again
She keeps repeating "I did nothing to deserve this", you can hear the heartbreak in her voice everytime she says it, still confused as to why her family would do that to her. She will probably never know, because she has a bright, beautiful soul, how could she understand such sick, sadistic, jealous behavior. She will go down in history as a true hero!!!
If anyone still struggles with what gaslighting is--this is it. Narcissistic abuse, distorting reality, manipulation, it's all here, done to Britney by the very people who should have loved and cherished her. The irony of this is her behavior shows incredible SANITY, poise, and self-control. Most of us would've flipped our lids and lashed out far earlier and far more dramatically than Britney ever did.
I honestly would have lost my mind & went nuts on my family if they were my jailers. What a betrayal ny the people that are supposed to love u the most. They treated her less than human w/ zero rights . Honestly working that hard 7 days a week , w/ no pay while 1000's of people for 15 years she is paying just one example of how insane all this is , when she Said the bodyguards that were hired for her payed w/ her money were stopping her from leaving her room. That's insane. The best point she made or one of the many great points she made during her leaked course testimony was " if I'm so incapable that I need to be a conservatorship how could I be working so hard so many hours 7 days a week supporting so many people around me shows that I obviously am capable if I can go work & keep so many people employed make zero sense. " also she was so right that she was equivalent to human trafficking. She was forced into AA when she wasn't drinking. I did think it showed what an awesome person she is that her only hi light was listening to the people in Aa speak & trying to make themselves better people. " wow no judgment & she wasn't sitting there thinking u know these people deserve to be here but I don't instead she admired them & misses them. I found that part do touching . I bet she was inspired & got great support from the people in AA notice the u took the meetings & the code they have of anonymous b/c not one of those people leaked a story about her being in AA or sharing things she said w/ anyone. I could tell she really did get something out of it even though she was forced to be there , which I don't get at all when she wasn't an alcoholic. She used some slogans of theirs in her court testimony like " fake it til u make it " & taking it one step at a time " sounds like the people there let her know she's worth something when she felt fir a long time that she wasn't anymore. Broke my heart when she Said about her family " they killed me " she must have ptsd from a 15 year nightmare losing out on a life from 25 to 40 & her family & ex sleazebag husband & family alienating her from the kids she did everything for. They used those boys from when they were literally baby's to keep her obedient . Like you better do this & stick to the " program " if u want to ever see ur kids. Now those almost adults kids w/ their dad are trashing her like her family does so so sad. On those videos Kevin released their was no abuse. They sounded like spoiled smart mouths. She was just trying to discipline them like any mom would. She must have been heartbroken to learn even her kids were recording her & sending it to their gold digging dad when thry were 11 & 12. It's no wonder they treated her w/ zero respect as she said nobody In her own family was & I'm sure she was bashed to them & they were told she was " crazy"
This was an incredible listen and has completely changed how I viewed her. She is so articulate and emotive and compassionate in this audio. What a gift.
@@Mia-vm6pl lol what. She wants to tell her story and a lot of people are ready to hear it. If you dont want to see her rise again, click away. Its obvs not for you.
@@Mia-vm6pl not only that. But she has gone through hell and back, getting wound up and grounded in the Disney Channel machine - being a cash cow to your family and not being able to speak out about how you’re being exploited and abused behind-the-scenes. When you are the biggest popstar in the fucking world. I don’t think you can relate. Maybe you should get off social media because this historical.
I agree...I can also understand now why she's been behaving the way she has lately. She's literally looking for reassure frim the world as her family hasn't given her any it seems for more than a decade
They drove her to have a meltdown. Then called her crazy. This is serious abuse. I love you Britney you deserve so much happiness. I wishing you peace and love. Stay strong..❤️❤️❤️
Yes! I think that’s the part of the story that’s just clicked. She was broken down so that she would ‘go crazy’ so that they could gain this control. So sad
No. She’s had a breakdown and they monitored her the way a mentally Ill person is to be monitored. She’s chalking up to saying no during a rehearsal as to why they supposedly held her prisoner. Everyone seen her spiral down, EVERYONE. She’s mentally ill. Now she’s free to do what she wants and I’m interested to see what’s going to happen next. When she crashes and burns it’s going to be interesting who you d!ck riders will blame for that? Everyone who screamed foul should be held accountable.
Isn't that ironic that the souls who suffer the most, do so much to protect others from the same experiences?! Pure human soul right there. Nothing but love and respect.
She wrote it down and then made a recording. Her son's tried to build a relationship with her and she messed it up by walking around naked and constantly nagging them during a psychosis state. No one in their right mind will want to be around a mother like that. Just because it's Britney Spears doesn't make it okay for her to act this way around her children. She is very mentally ill and if something happens to her then Britney fans are to blame. Britney is more in danger with her new husband than she was with her own family who were just trying to help her. Everyone that's close to her says she's not well but a bunch of total strangers disagree with that. Make it make sense!
@@Truthbtold44 Yeah, I don't think she really has too many "haters" these days. She used to, for sure. But it seems that most people can see that she has not led an envious life, despite her wealth. And she really seems like such a sweet person. I think most people just feel badly for her now.
@@LisaSmith3663 I agree also. The court testimony actually sounded a bit manic and all over the place at certain times . Not BAD but definitely not as controlled as here .
When taking back your voice is literal. She is so well spoken, lucid, and intelligent. Her truth is no longer silenced and I’m so glad we can hear her voice and what she’s saying. Much love to Britney
Her words at the end ‘you are not alone’ prove how sincere, human and empathetic she truly is - I pray that she finds healing and loves the life she chooses from now on 🙏
Britney Spears is such a bright beautiful light in this world. It breaks my heart she had to experience so much pain from the people who were supposed to love her the most. The fact she’s still going every single day is a miracle on it’s own. The strength inside her is unmatched! And the fact she’s declining any offers to make money only makes me love her more and shows the impact of how deep her pain truly is. So humble. Us fans love you forever and will support you through anything miss Britney Jean!!
Britney is the only modern singer I am a fan of and I have been a fan for 24 years now she has a lifelong fan with me her circus tour concert I went to in one of the 2 best concerts I have been to and I was so happy just getting to be in the same building as her it’s sad to hear that total strangers like me were fighting for her freedom when her own mother and sister wouldn’t
@@kevin10001 Same. I mean, despite of what she went through, she's still human. BTW the media also did that to Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes, Michael Jackson, etc. P.S. No offense but Britney OWNS Katy Perry. Thanks, dude. Long live Britney Spears, dude.
I'm afraid for her safety. Who owns the media, Hollywood and The music industry? They're very sick people out there. Michael Jackson, Prince, Avicii, Chester Bennington .. tried to expose them and we all know what happened. Edit: Her instagram page completely disappeared after posting a certain Flag..
@@mave143 while you’re being pumped with meds, locked in treatment centers, being let out to perform and make money for someone else who won’t let you touch a dollar of it?? You know you don’t want that, no one would
It doesn't sound like she was alone enough to even unalive herself. It's so terrible to say. What she went through is worse than prison. It was human trafficking under 24 hour surveillance.
Yes Britney! Speak and don't stop! Tell your story as many times as you can because the world needs to hear it. You are an incredible woman and I have so much respect for you! Thank you for sharing this! Thank you for showing people what gaslighting is and THANK YOU for speaking....KEEP SPEAKING.
I went to one of her shows in Vegas. I was with friends who were having a grand old time, screaming and laughing and enjoying the show. I have never forgotten how haunting it was to watch her. She did look like a robot, and in so much pain. I actually got emotional and didn’t share it with anyone because I knew people would think I was nutty. So sad to hear this now, and in a small way, just being at that show makes me feel complicit in all they did to her.
So many people are emotionally stunned like your friends that's the reason it took so long for her to break free. Strange how it's people who see the truth feel nutty not the stunned ones
Brit's kindness has literally always been taken advantage of - from her record label, to producers, to media, and now her family. Looking back at past interviews, Britney has always been incredibly kind and down to earth. She has been exploited by so many for too long. Tell your story, Brit! We love and support you!
Agree she is truly kind..coz if she is not, she would not allow others to treat her that way. Just as an example, maybe that is why Christina has that tough bitch facade going on so that people won't mess with her. I guess it really is difficult and tricky to be a celeb
@@stanbalo No. Christina is a narcissist. That's why she always behaved that way....remember when Pink talked about her shiitty behaviour? Or Mary J Blige talked about Christina A. back in 2000...she said she will never making it bc of her toxic character.
It is, and it’s a time in life you also look back a little and put things in proper perspective. Then you let go of it eventually and continue to grow in your here and now.
LIBERATING! DEFINETELY. That's the perfect word. Good for Britney... freeing herself from all the secrets and lies and abuse she's endured. Sharing her story. I'm 38 and actually your coment just made me look at my own next chapter more positively! Thanks
It really seems like her family saw how she was being portrayed in the media at the time , 2004/2005, and took advantage of that to put her into the conservatorship so that they could work her and basically use her fame for their own fortune. It's so sad to hear that her whole family was using her; and everyone else, therapists, dancers, producers, etc, just stood by and ignored it or even gaslit her into thinking SHE was in the wrong. She is so strong for surviving all of this abuse and I'm so happy she's telling her story
@@Maya-dc8cb yup that's the worse part. She had no problem sharing her wealth, but clearly they wanted even more . And they didn't want her to be able to say no.
Absolutely her family made out well using their daughter the bastards! I know exactly about this crap.. cuz in some ways this happened to me.. I was placed in foster care but I had been abused.. I was sent away tried to tell.. eventually my abuser was caught not for me though not till 23 yrs later neighbor kids, but I was sent away because he was a powerful man. no one believed me I was put in a program for runaways while in foster care no therapists no one would believe me.. I ended up breaking my hand on a wall.. I know this crap it happens.. and famiies can be the ones who look all oh we care.. and they're the main culprits of abuse.. Love Brithney Spears.. Finally she got her life back.. Amen.
I really don’t understand why Britney hasn’t pressed charges or sued her father. The most she’s managed to do is a book deal but I don’t think that’s enough. I wish she would stand up for herself more.
Everyone around Britney was paid off to keep the family narrative. She was horribly abused and she should press charges against every one of her family members that took part in her abuse and gained financially because of it. All the money they took from her should be returned with interest and she should be compensated for the years of her life that were taken from her and for the abuse she endured. She can never get back those years nor can she get back the time she missed with her boys. Her family is pure evil.
Good to hear her voice being "there". So "normal" and "aware". Girl went through hell and back. The fact that Fans got her out of this is equally beautiful and sad. The closest people to her used her....and the fans, the people celebrities get annoyed at, were there to get her out of it.
Love how she isn't motivated by money.... she has learned to the extreme- of how money can be the root of all evil. She has such an innocence about her- and her being so badly abused, is heart wrenching. How could Family do this to her? What must be so hard for her now... is trying to accept all that she's lost. It's not as simple as her moving on- her grief must be unimaginable 💔
MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ 💔
It seems like her family still own her money so why would she want them to gain from her speaking out? I’m sure she’ll address things publicly when she is truly free from her family and legalities
She was literally tortured. James Spears is a criminal and her family was complicit of the CRIME. She was physically, mentally, and emotionally violated for over a decade. They need to pay for this. Britney deserves JUSTICE. This is absolutely appalling, it’s unacceptable. #JusticeForBritney
Right on. BTW the media too, pal. I mean, they also kicked Britney, LiLo, Amanda, Demi, Kesha, the Olsens, Paris, Nicole, Whitney, MJ, etc. during their toughest of times. Again, I completely agree, dude. #JUSTICEFORBRITNEY #THEMEDIASUCKS
Look at the people--the woman she mentioned behind the family that benefitted and put her family up to it--they are all to to blame. But you have to also look at how 4hey are going after people with money. She didnt know the threat of choosing jail /court would have given her rights that she didn't have. That Surprise Witness should be credited for all the work
All the work she did, and giving up her New Manhatten high paying job to stand up for Brittany and people like her--she stood up to the woman and whomever is behind her too. It's how they prey on these people that have on knew and that are vulnerable. I'm very glad that Brittany didn't let anyone benefit off her story. Her family and other people really need to pay for what they did to her, but they do this to people who are not famous but have money they will go after you--its sick!
I was locked away as child. By my adoptive abusive alcoholic parents. Being isolated and locked away is one of the most damaging things for a human to go through. The trauma almost destroyed me entirely. It's taken 2 decades to feel safe anywhere, anytime. Britney is an absolute HERO. To go through what she's been through and come out of it able to speak so clearly and passionately about her trauma is inspirational. I hope that posting this made her feel empowered for even a few months. Wherever she is right now I hope she's safe. Where is Britney??
This is her Pheonix rising moment and I'm so so proud of her. She has no idea who I am but she was right there in every step of my childhood/young adulthood.
People with a genuine soul like Britney will always be taken advantage of, this is the sad world we live in, listening to this audio is so heartbreaking 💔 I wish you healing Britney and to come back to your real self, doing what you love and taking full power over your life, you deserve it. 🙏🏽
Amen sister. The best people get treated the worst it seems.. it makes you hate the world but the best way to change the world is not letting others get to you and continue putting out all the good you can out there
I kept hearing about some sort of “crazed rant.” This is not a crazed rant. This is a well edited, thoughtful retelling of her experiences, because she didn’t want to be paid for her story. I don’t understand how this could be offensive to anyone besides the villains in her family.
Seriously... I left a long term abusive relationship a number of years ago now. It pales in comparison to the level of control and manipulation Brittney experienced. But when I told my story to people after I left, I sounded unhinged for quite some time. Now, I can speak with this type of clarity, but it took years of battling PTSD to get there. She has great strength as a survivor and this is in no way a rant. She's just being real.
I spent most of my childhood in facilities just like the one Britney was sent to. Also had to bathe and change in front of everyone. Forced to take medications that weren’t mine, wasn’t allowed to contact my family or friends, and so much more. I feel her pain, I feel her trauma. My heart breaks for Britney, I was saved by my great grandparents in 2010 while she’s been stuck in that situation for almost as long as I’ve been alive. I needed to hear this, I needed to know I’m not alone and that even someone as famous as Britney Spears has been through something similar to me. I will forever love Britney and I have nothing but respect for her. She’s going to be the voice of change and hopefully put a stop to those facilities.
Hi Vayla. Sorry to hear your story and I am sorry you had to go through all this. Families can be crule and hurtful. I am glad you are out and safe. Remember it was done to you - but it is not you.
I’m sorry this happened to you. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you have started to heal and you know your worth. No one deserves to be treated this way. Hugs to you x
Sorry to hear that you also endured the things Britney endured, Vayla. I mean, I have empathy for Britney. I don't search her 2007 bald and breakdown photos. Not to mention that I don't search for Paris, LiLo, Nicole, Mischa and Amanda's mug shots either because I also have empathy for them. In other words, I have empathy for those female celebs. BTW wishing you healing alongside Britney, Vayla.
I love she's talking posting online ppl keep saying she's out of it she's awkward bc she was by herself ppl paid to invade her privacy and help her family treat her like a work horse she is basically learning how to act and be brit like be an individual and not on concoction of meds to drive her insane I hope she continues to shine bc she's been through hell and I do wanna believe her hubby is a good thing for her bc up until he cMe along she stayed silent I think he gave her that push she just needed someone good on her side someone who genuinely cared loved her not her money ect. And him signing a prenup made me like him more bc he actively works too I just hope she's happy and she sees her kids when she wants
Spot on! If she did a network interview her words would have been twisted. It’s Britney’s turn to speak from her heart! No media cuts, no cliffhangers, no questions, just her in her own words. We love you Britney!
The REALEST I’ve ever heard her. As upsetting as this is i feel a massive sense of relief. She now has a VOICE ❤️ God bless her soul. The universe better heal her!
Unbelievable that not a single doctor had confirmed that Britney's guardianship was necessary, indefinite guardianship, of all things. this also happened to Marilyn Monroe at the time, a forced admission, Joe diMaggio then took her out of the psychiatric institution. That this is still possible 50 years later is frightening and the law should prevent this. It's all about power and money in the end. Britney you are a survivor and a true hero❤️
The rage she must be dealing with is unimaginable. I’m not sure if she’s at that stage yet or already dealt with it. But if my family did to me what her family did to her. I don’t think I’d ever get over the rage I was forced to keep inside. She had her children stolen from her. She lost the ability to be the Mom she always wanted to be, and deserved to be. That’s something that can’t ever be returned to her. That’s time she’ll never get back. It’s so heartbreaking and unfair.
I feel like I constantly go between grief/resentment/sadness/and rage. Especially since no matter how hard I try, I can't escape my family because of my circumstances. I believe I am truly stuck.
My parents tried to take my children when I was 18 as a form of retribution for me speaking against them. I called my mom a hypocrite in an argument and they decided I had to pay for that crime. They are both narcissists. They kidnapped my children and gave them to my abusive ex-husband. I fought all three of them for ten years and finally won in court when neuropsychologists produced an in-depth report of the abuse, but my children have PTSD. There isnt really “winning” in a scenario like that. The rage I felt for them was unimaginable. I still cry sometimes thinking about the pain they caused my children. My ex used them to punish me for leaving him. It was literal hell. I have gone on to get multiple degrees and create an amazing business. At my lowest I always remember “Freedom is what you do with what’s been done to you.” I am so sorry for the suffering your family inflicted. That betrayal feels impossible to bear. Lots of love 🤍
If you're on drugs, wasting all your money, etc. that's the ONLY way you leave yourself open to this kind of garbage. I know becuase I did nothing wrong but get drunk every weekend and they took my kid away but I know I chose drinking f them LoL
I have a lot in common with britney. My family has felt like my sabotages rather than a loving family who wants me to be successful. It's hard to deal with the rage...I try daily...I pray both me and her will be free from it
Lots of women are used as brude mares or sold to pay rent. Most of us don't have the earning capacity to be pro sti tute Ed for 15 yrs though. Proud of Brit for living thru this.
I’m so sad and mad for her. Despite being ‘free’ she’s still dealing with the ‘trauma’. But this chat shows she was fully aware, but scared. It wasn’t a ‘illness’ that kept her in her conservatorship but fear. Imagine being a 25 year old and scared to live your life?!?!? I want a comeback, all sparkly and shiny, BUT I’m no longer putting any expectations on Britney. For the rest of her life she should be able to do whatever she wants. And if people don’t like it, they need to look the other way.
You can hear the toughness and intelligence in her voice. And her fun-loving and creative side too. Very special person. SO glad she made it through and out of that hell.
She literally got her childhood, teens, young adulthood ALL stolen from her. This is so traumatic it hurts me. We love you Britney ALWAYS speak your truth !!!
Same happened to Michael jackson he performed from the age of 5 he Even told Britney before he died this was going to happen he warned her to get out of show business
True. This is nothing for an interviewer or a tv show to gain money and fame with. This is just for herself to learn to gain confidence and speaking about this more freely day by day. It is her life
Her family tried to steal her light, but now she is shinning brighter than ever. Growing up britney was everwhere, tv, radio, you name it. I overlooked her then, but after reading her book, and listneing to all her music i see how talented and special she really is. Blessings to her healing
Britney is a pure soul which was taken advantage off not just by the music industry and media but her own vile family. It's just tragic and sad but I'm so proud of her to stay true to herself, never loosing her humanity in the midst of this mayhem
It’s unimaginable what this woman went through. It is so messed up that it can keep you up at night, thinking what a cruel, inhuman world we live in. A world where you can’t trust your own family, the people closest to you. She’s a survivor of immense abuse. I’m just hoping her healing process makes her stand strong, healthy and happy again. Britney, your family didn’t love you and didn’t deserve you. But the world does. We love you and support you Britney.
Even more frightening is that this happened to a superstar. The sheer amount of abuse that goes on and is cosigned by the legal system is enormous! There are communities dedicated to it on every social media platform. I'm so glad she's helped to shine some light on it, but we have a long way to go. This system is inhumane, and yes it is incredibly cruel because this always comes down to money and power, not love and truth.
The fact that she wanted to tell her story, to her fans, without getting paid for it, says a lot about her. I think she’s a kind, generous and down to earth person. Unfortunately, her family took advantage of that. Good on her for finding her confidence and now being able defend her and her young self. I don’t know how her family can sleep at night! What greedy, selfish people.
I love that Brittany is speaking directly to her fans, noncontrived and no middle man. maybe she realizes she does not need a middle man anymore. She is too famous and loved. I have so much more respect for her now. Based on the testimony she is sharing to all survivors of gaslighting and intimidation, she is growing into not just a pop star, but a hero. It takes courage to speak when your village turns it back on you. There is a reason she rose to stardom.
Also Britney has the best fanbase in the history of the world to fight for her when no one else believed her. I'm not a fan or hers but I feel so much empathy for her. Bless everyone who paved the way to finally the end the abuse.
@@REALCrazyCritic yeah the abusers need to be behind bars. Justice needs to be served. They need to pay back every stolen penny. Lock these greedy pigs away. They are monsters and deserve no respect or kindness.
My sister's friend met her when she was young, late teenager or in her early 20's and she said she feels so bad for her as she saw how controlling her parents are. This audio supports that observation 100%. Poor Britney. I hope she gets back peace and calmness she was ripped off so harshly in one moment.
This just infuriates me, as a mother myself. Growing up with Brittany and then becoming a mother myself. How can a mother allow anyone to treat her child, regardless if she was 17 or 30, like she was treated? how? HOW? I am so sorry Brittany 😞 I am sending you so many positive vibes and big hugs straight from my heart and I know you got this..you are strong girl.
Britney is more than an icon, she’s an American Legend. From her humble beginnings, to her meticulous dedication, her perseverance through public denigration, devastating betrayal, silencing and imprisonment, to breaking the chains that bound her… she is a phoenix. Her story is that of a hero, once on top, torn down by villains and lies but never truly defeated. She’s a force.
It breaks my heart the trauma she has to live with, as somebody ao with cptsd and constant anxiety & depression..even I can't comprehend the magnitude what she's gone through and the entire world couldn't save her for SO LONG.
She speaks so coherently and articulately. This is what she should have done from the beginning. This shows her humanity and empathy and authenticity in a way nothing else has. I'm glad she's braving the judgment.
I mean they mentally broke her mentally abused her like she said he threatened her made her go to center over saying no once that's form of most horrible mental abuse ever. .....I freaking love she's talking posting online ppl keep saying she's out of it shes crazy ect. And the media runs with oh brit is crazy no the media helped her imprisonment no one deserved what she's been through......she's awkward bc she was by herself and ppl paid to invade her privacy and help her family treat her like a work horse she was cut off from everyone he called all shots and if she acted up her kids were used against her or hey we will lock u up....she is basically learning how to act and be brit like be an individual and not on concoction of meds to drive her insane I hope she continues to shine bc she's been through hell and I do wanna believe her hubby is a good thing for her bc up until he cMe along she stayed silent I think he gave her that push she just needed someone good on her side someone who genuinely cared loved her not her money ect. And him signing a prenup made me like him more bc he actively works too I just hope she's happy and she sees her kids when she wants
Lots of love to anyone who is suffering and alone. I love that she made her own recording without any influence from a journalist, let’s hear Britney’s incredible VOICE speaking her TRUTH 👏👏👏
It’s hard to break free. Britney still isn’t free. She still a money machine for others 😞 and controlled. She’s tough, but I doubt she’ll get freedom , ever. It’s sick.
Indeed. BTW no offense but Britney OWNS Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa, Katy Perry, ToOve Lo and Carly Rae Jepsen. Thanks, dude. Long live Britney Spears, dude.
The ending is so powerful. I'm also shy and lonely. She is so relatable. No one can give her those years back but at least she is free now and has her life back. I wish her the best. We ❤️ Britney.
Speaking up freely really sets your soul free...hurray for this great woman because before being an artist (great artist by the way) she is a human being. May God keep blessing your life, Britney 💚
My soul just yearns for her. I pray she's doing what SHE wants to now. That's all we can hope for. Sending protection, positivity, love and light to you Britney.
The end about us introverts made me emotional. I have so much respect for her, since introverts need their alone time I really don't know how she was able to put up with all those people constantly invading her privacy. She's a hero. Brit you're the best!!! Your children will be able to see this when they"ll get older...you're the freakin best!!! It's not easy to stand up for yourself in an appalling situation like the conservatorship was. Hope you will heal one day and be able to leave all this mess behind. Sending you the biggest hug 🤗
Yes, I am slowly learning this about my own family. I’m extroverted and autistic and it’s so hard being around my family and friends because they’re all introverted and they get angry with me for being so open and talkative and sharing my problems and life story with people. I’m slowly learning to respect them as hard as it is. I feel like the introverts in my life don’t care about me because I get lectured or yelled at for being a bubbly social person. You’d think they’d be grateful their autistic friend/relative is talkative but no they want me to be quiet because they think autistic people should be silent and that its wrong for us to talk so I eventually learned to mask and pretend to be introverted to make them happy but inside my spirit and soul I am screaming to be free to be me. It’s sad. Introverts are forced to be social and extroverts are silenced. It isn’t right. I’m glad Britney took a stand to address this.
The most incredible part of her story is that she was prevented from getting her own attorney. There should be laws against this. She had no way to fight for her legal rights. As far as I'm concerned, there should be laws in every state protecting the rights of all persons to get their own legal representation.
Me too! And I literally broke down in tears last night because I felt so powerless and useless. Seeing Britney say this made me feel a little better. We need more honest people like her.
It’s heart wrenching to hear this from her. She is a brilliant person who’s is suffering from narcissistic abuse. And through this she still wants to help out! A true heart of gold!
@Dessy Didova Indeed. I wish her only hapiness. i was 18 when someone wanted to do something similar to me. I had refused to marry him (after what I thought was a silly parenthesis) Bastard drugged my food and had me hospitalized, after a few days of hospital non drugged food the doctors understood that what I was saying was the truth, that I was fine and they let me go. But I remember being in that hospital at night and could sleep from anxiety thinking how the hell did I get here ?!! and can he be this controlling ? how am i gonna get away from him. I did indeed get away, but I can't help thinking back sometimes at the risk I run and what a turn my life had taken in such a short span of time..... bless Britney !
Can you even imagine being her child and listening to this when you grow up? What a profound effect this had on their mother and how ultimately their fate was altered drastically along with hers. We love you, Britney.
The "kids" are on the dad's side. I bet. Maybe when they turn 18 they will do something to help thier mother. If not then we know what kind of people they grew up to be. fact.
@@gabynarufan if they don’t it doesn’t automatically make them bad people, they have grown up in a family where this would be normalised behaviour and also have likely been tormented themselves by the same people that tormented Britney, so have likely developed extremely complex trauma responses to survive. Things are not this black and white. I hope they can have a relationship with their mother but if they don’t pursue a relationship with her or choose to wait a while before doing so then that’s valid too.
@@rhiannonhuston9855 stop victimizing her spoiled rich kids. I'm sure her dad (their grandpa) was a prick to them but he wasn't after her children, he was after Britney and her money. Kevin actually didn't even want the kids to see Jamie spears and kept them from being around him. I don't think her kids even have a part in any of this. They're only 15-16 and are too busy being rich teenagers. I'm sure they aren't sitting down following all the events that happened and getting involved in their moms conservatorship case. But from the looks of it, her kids are alot like Kevin federline which isn't a good thing. But it also makes sense...she had her kids ripped away from her and didn't get to raise them in the way she wanted so their main influence is Kevin and the weirdo's Kevin hangs out with.
Do you realize how her voice changes as the audio goes on? ....as if she were talking to a real friend opening up her heart. Her voice (her heart) is gaining confidence 👏
And that's why she decided to open up to us as her fans who have been with her all these years. She's not fake, doesn't need money for interviews like Meghan Markle lol she's not a sellout, she just wanted to speak her truth ❤️
The latter half of her life is now left with no family, trust trauma. She deserves all the support and love this world can give her. Thank god for those fans that fought for her or what would've happened to her.... The public treated them like obsessed teenyboppers but its ironic how the justice system got it so wrong for too long
that's because the justice system probably didn't get it wrong, a lot of people were sure as hell paid off by his father or accomplices, or voluntarily turned a blind eye because they didn't want to risk their little comfort by speaking up. That's actually how most witnesses to abuse respond, courage, dignity and basic empathy is rare.
Yes. We are here Britney. Lots of us out here love you and you were treated horribly by your family. There are some good people out here. Keep trusting your instincts and reaching out. Love ya, W
They took “living through their kids” to a toxic level. I knew there was more to this story than what they were saying… always supported you brit. Your strength and resilience is so admirable. There’s a lot of people that wouldn’t have made it through what you went through, there’s so many people that would’ve given up and your story has probably given so many people, especially young women so much inspiration and motivation to do better for themselves and assurance that there is a light at the end of every tunnel. I love you Brit brit, you’re the best. Stay safe and keep your head up!💕
I'm moved by Britney Spears for sharing her story. She has motivated me to find my independence and to learn how to not be afraid to stand up for myself. Even against my own family.
What an incredibly strong and inspiring woman. Her experience of life in this world has been very unique to her and she has endured so much trauma, and yet she is still standing and with so much humility. I really hope she feels how much love and compassion there is for her in the world, and while that won't heal the trauma of her family's abuse and betrayal, I hope it brings her comfort and lets her know how many people admire her.
Britney's dad and manager(s) trafficked her and should be hit for every penny they've gotten from her talent and hard work. That her own mother, sister, and brother kept silent is equally horrific. Rise like the phoenix, Britney!
Every time she’s able to speak on her own terms it’s very evident that she’s a completely sound, clear thinking person. It’s WILD that her dad was able to basically keep her as a drugged up machine due to a technicality in the law. Throw him AND all of the medical professionals involved with this malpractice, in jail.
The end did it for me. Despite all of this, she's really saying she made this recording just to help other people feel less lonely. It's the empathy and the kindness this woman has. She didn't deserve any of what happened to her. I hope she gets all the help and love she desires.
Brittany I'm so glad you got out of there. Narcissistic abuse is so misunderstood and the abuser is so good at manipulating other to believe that the victim of their abuse is crazy. Wake up judicial system. You have it 1000% WRONG.Brittany No contract is the only way to go. I know. Also your family was more than likely manipulated and or scared to do anything. Look what your father was capable of doing. Believe in God and your dad will have his judgement day.
@@dopecat_truecrime ehh.... ever heard of Stockholm syndrome? or... the fact she had been in show business since a baby with managers and "babysitters" her entire life which means she doesnt have the same thought process as an everyday NOBODY citizen like yourself. Grow up like that and you really DONT realize how things COULD be or the "repercussions". Do you think maybe she wants to be near her sons? even if my sons "didnt want to see me" bc they are MINORS who wouldn't understand any of it I would never leave the state without my kids over my fucking dead body. you must have a dick, or no children.
She is so FUCKING courageous! To be this vulnerable in front of the world. Some people can never share their trauma and she's doing it so publicly. Thank you, baby! History will remember Britney kindly.
I love her. She's fucking brilliant. You can feel that undercurrent flowing even under this gigantic shitpile of trauma she went through. I have so much respect for her!
Yea. Respect for sure. . It’s. Not right that calvary church is. Mega church and they behind all this too. Tristar is a front for these abusing church people. .. they.

OMG, that was the MOST RIVETING,REAL,RAW thing I have ever heard! I felt almost like I was listening to a really good friend. Thank you Britney Spears for sharing yourself and letting the rest of us know that we're ALL OK! SO POWERFUL!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ya'll remember her Instagram posts and how weird they were? And people were always saying save Britney, and I just wasn't sure about it... but it did feel off. I'm so happy this is all coming out, and I am SO happy she is speaking out. We love you Brit!
glad u saw what was actually going on, there are people who know this is her story full well and still harrass her and make fun of her just bc of her ig its disgusting. the fact that people could know this and still be cruel to her, they are just as bad as the rest who hurt her. amen to that, we love you Britney!!!
@@sharks9555 Totally agree! And listening to this recording shows exactly how scared she was of telling the truth due to being manipulated and controlled. Look what they already got away with. Nobody is perfect that's for sure, but they did her dirty big time.
It's so nice to hear her story from her. People forget she used to be so open and share like this a lot. She used to share her thoughts on her site, she shared her relationship and tour and wedding with a mini series she recorded herself, etc. It was one of the things that built her following, treating her fans like people and sharing with us to show she was human too. My heart breaks that she was put thru all of this and I'm thrilled she has her freedom, is finding her joy and her voice again.
2:42 “The extent of my ‘madness’ was playing chase with the paparazzi, which still to till this day, is the most fun thing I ever did being famous” QUEEN 👸🏼
I wanted to cry at the end when she mentioned her song with Elton John, like it was finally a positive thing after all she went through. She seems so kind and lovely, she did not deserve all that.
I didn’t think I could possibly love this woman more than I already did! Just wow. I hope she hand picks her own team for future work projects and holds her head up high. I just hope all those toxic, controlling, narcissistic people around her in the conservatorship gets punishment.
Her dad is a narcissist and she was his victim. So sad, so badly abused and completely helpless. I’ve never been a big Britney fan but mad props, she’s hardcore and she survived.
What I’ve always loved about Britney is that she reminds us that she is human and isn’t trying to be perfect. She’s truly a great source of motivation for me to not give up on life and that there’s always a new chapter waiting around the corner.
It’s actually refreshing to hear her sound like an intelligent and genuine human which is a HUGE contrast from her weird Instagram posts. It seems like two different people.
If you didn't think they controlled all of her media, these statements make it abundantly evident. The fact that she thinks/thought that people were still judging her or doubting her story, or wouldn't believe her, says that, that's what she was being told by the purple around her. I don't think that she had ever truly seen what the "free Britney" movement was actually about, and the amount of love and support she had, until this last year. If she had the ability to read the tweets, posts, and videos being posted in support, I think she would have reached out sooner. The level of fear and manipulation in her life for over a decade is just horrifying.
The fact that she doesn't want to be paid for her story says a lot about her. None of the celebrities would have do the same. Most of them now makes a business of their stories. Britney just put a memo on RUclips, she's a legend.
Super Fuckin Legend. 😢👑
Really 5 million for her so called book isn't chump change and she didn'teven write it. Narrarated it only,..... her words, no one elses, don't fly.
@@dannyechi2873 We don't know that. I'm sure she will write a book or have a documentary done. She deserves to be paid for that. She isnt "playing the victim", she IS a victim.
@@dannyechi2873 Are you a troll?
"Plays victim"......???
@@dannyechi2873 Hmmm... please open your mind and see that she is the victim. She's been used and abused by her own family for years! What do you call it when her father forces her to work and earn money that she doesn't see, put her in rehab to shut her up just because she voiced an opinion, control and spend her hard-earned money at his whim, force her on contraception so that she couldn't get pregnant, denying her the right to remarry, forcing her to take unnecessary drugs, forcing her to have therapy, keeping her a prisoner in her own home? I call that abuse, of which she's the victim! She's finally free to speak up for herself without fear of consequences, the ability to take back control of her own life and make decisions on matters which affect her. She's able to marry her boyfriend and able to remove that contraceptive device and have children. Good for her!
The media describing this as a “rant” when in reality it couldn’t be further from that. It’s a rather calm and collected statement by Britney, full of compassion and empathy for others- all of which shows incredible emotional maturity given the level of abuse she has endured and is talking about.
who called it a rant? how dare they
Yes she is so calm talking us through everything, not a sight of the mental illness her family claims she has… I do believe she is playing fool on her Instagram account, so her attackers underestimate her
It's the same media that ruined Britney's life. What makes you think they care about her now? They are vultures.
No it’s a rant and she sounds like she needs more than counseling lol she is a sick girl
Yeah it's expected at this point. This is her calmly telling her story and yet again it gives everyone another reason to gaslight her and call her 'crazy'. At this point I think it's just personal thing they have for her. Jealousy or whatever it may be. Cause if this was a random person telling this everyone would have sympathy. But since it's Britney spears, the biggest superstar EVER, they feel the need to call her 'crazy'. People in general are just disgusting. Look at the celebs they stan, and build up and look at the ones they tear down. They're so blind and lacking intelligence.

Amen
I needed to hear this, so many do still
But how is she an introvert?? 🤔
I'm a weird intervert lol I rather ce alone then be hurt by two faced so called friends
@@GameChanger597 introverts get drained by being around people and need time to recover in their own company. She can be famous and still be an introvert.
That was the most empathetic, sane, intelligent, compassionate statement I’ve heard from any celeb recently. The audacity of her family and the people that enabled her unjust conservatorship to say this woman was “crazy and unstable” boggles my mind
Right they're the ones who are truly crazy and should be locked
"If you're a weird, introvert, oddball like me, who feels alone a lot of the time and you needed to hear a story like this today so you don't feel alone, know this: my life has been far from easy and you're not alone"
God, this hit me so hard. I'm glad she's doing this on her terms. I feel so bad that the media has be vilifying and belittling her. They have no idea what she's been through and how horrible her "family" has been to her.
Crazy I opened right at a time I needed to hear that I’m not alone. 🙏🙏🙏🥺 God bless her. She really touched my heart. My heart hurts hearing all that she went through. MANY will be helped by her sharing her personal experience & pain.
Thanks for Lettin ne Know im Not alone
She could have made an INSANE amount of money to sell her story, but she didn’t. She did it for free so people suffering with the feelings she’s had to deal with don’t feel alone. If that doesn’t show people how pure her heart is, nothing will. We hear you Britney 💜👑
Yet her sister wrote a book I don't blame her for being so angry! Her family made her a literal cash clone. I knew in my heart something wasn't right. Her dancing got robotic because everything she went through! It makes so much sense now. Love you Britney so much have since 1999 at 8 years old and will always love her 💜
Same! BTW Britney OWNS Taylor Swift.

I love her. She is a precious soul ❤
This is a horror story. Can you imagine? Can you IMAGINE being in the position she was in and then the people closest to you decide to set you up as “crazy” to the entire world. Which in turn destroys your mental health. Your kids are ripped away from you. Your freedom. EVERYTHING. I cannot believe she went though this and still comes across as intelligent and strong as she does. We love you Brit and I’m completely blown away that you made it out the other side. You are strong, independent, beautiful and talented.
It is a horror story. I've just really learned about what happened to her and I can't even believe such a thing exists for such lame lame reasons and so utterly corrupt! My God this poor woman. She deserves everything good.
it rlly pisses me off that every single person even her own family treated her like shit every fucking day 4 no damn reason. the other night i prayed 4 everybody 2 take back everything theyve done & give her the truest, most sincere, most heartfelt apology ever & 4 her 2 4give as them as sweet of a person she is
I don't think it was a set up after all. She isn't well October 2023
@JennyLouLou How can one be well in October 2023 after having gone through THAT? It is possible to dismantle a personality of the most mentally healthy person, if you do what they did to her. Human psyché can only overcome so much. Having someone watch you change? No door to the bathroom? Tons of blood drawn, MRTs, and working from 8 to 6 every day even on weekends on top of it? Of course, she is not well today! Who would be?
I don’t think she’s alive now. The book doesn’t cover much of any of this stuff. The dancing videos look strange and AI generated and make no sense. You honestly think the girl in the videos is the same one talking in this clip? The deep fakes they can make now are staggering. I pray that sweet woman is ok now in heaven or earth. No words :(
This woman is made of steel. How is she still capable of being this clear and sane after more than a decade of abuse and betrayal by literally ALL of her family, now even her boys! Seriously, I would freak out without knowing who to believe and trust. She has a pure heart and deserves all the happiness in the world. I hope all the people who caused her this trauma pay for what they did, by the law of men or God.
Well I think your kids were brainwashed I think they were for things in their head and all that stuff so I think Kevin made him think that everything was OK and normal that everybody was helping her and all that stuff and her and plus her family was probably made the boys think that is sad because now she has been betrayed by her own kids hopefully when they get older they realize before it’s too late
💯
Very well said, no one in her family deserves to be a part of her life. She should work on forgiving only for her own healing but never have any part in their lives. They are so dangerously caustic and have emotional harmed her in every possible way. I worry that she could possibly lose herself in all the anger that must follow something so traumatic as having your entire family abuse you and take from you for years. There are so many people who are wishing nothing but the best for her It takes a long time to heal from this.
Amen, I couldn't agree more!!
@@tammiepage6489 I agree 💯. It's called parental alienation. It happens all the time, I raised my Gdaughter for 7 years since she was 3 after her Mom abandoned her, her Mom came back 2 yrs ago & now she doesn't speak to me & only visits her Dad who has full legal custody. Worse, it's child abuse. She made straight A's in Gifted classes, now she can't even go to school for anxiety. She self-harms & is suicidal. WORSE, this is not even uncommon behavior for kids who are manipulated by a parent. Much ❤️
I was bullied and abused by my family and quite frankly betrayed. I'm in tears listening to this. Thank you Britney. You are loved.

Thank you for sharing your story ❤❤❤

Yes, trafficked by her father....wanted to add, her parents put themselves at the front; collected Brittanys earnings .....
and forced Brittany to a back seat where taking advantage was the norm....
This is 100 percent true
Somehow once it’s legal, it’s okay.… It’s so disgusting
Yes, this is trafficking by forcing her to sing, perform concerts, record cds and not be in control of her own money.
When she said she didn't understand why she was being treated that way but knew deep in her heart that she didn't deserve it, says it all. So many people have felt the exact same way and understand what she means. And we'll have her back.

She keeps repeating "I did nothing to deserve this", you can hear the heartbreak in her voice everytime she says it, still confused as to why her family would do that to her. She will probably never know, because she has a bright, beautiful soul, how could she understand such sick, sadistic, jealous behavior. She will go down in history as a true hero!!!
If anyone still struggles with what gaslighting is--this is it. Narcissistic abuse, distorting reality, manipulation, it's all here, done to Britney by the very people who should have loved and cherished her. The irony of this is her behavior shows incredible SANITY, poise, and self-control. Most of us would've flipped our lids and lashed out far earlier and far more dramatically than Britney ever did.
And clear examples of flying monkeys too.

She has faith
I honestly would have lost my mind & went nuts on my family if they were my jailers. What a betrayal ny the people that are supposed to love u the most. They treated her less than human w/ zero rights . Honestly working that hard 7 days a week , w/ no pay while 1000's of people for 15 years she is paying just one example of how insane all this is , when she Said the bodyguards that were hired for her payed w/ her money were stopping her from leaving her room. That's insane. The best point she made or one of the many great points she made during her leaked course testimony was " if I'm so incapable that I need to be a conservatorship how could I be working so hard so many hours 7 days a week supporting so many people around me shows that I obviously am capable if I can go work & keep so many people employed make zero sense. " also she was so right that she was equivalent to human trafficking. She was forced into AA when she wasn't drinking. I did think it showed what an awesome person she is that her only hi light was listening to the people in Aa speak & trying to make themselves better people. " wow no judgment & she wasn't sitting there thinking u know these people deserve to be here but I don't instead she admired them & misses them. I found that part do touching . I bet she was inspired & got great support from the people in AA notice the u took the meetings & the code they have of anonymous b/c not one of those people leaked a story about her being in AA or sharing things she said w/ anyone. I could tell she really did get something out of it even though she was forced to be there , which I don't get at all when she wasn't an alcoholic. She used some slogans of theirs in her court testimony like " fake it til u make it " & taking it one step at a time " sounds like the people there let her know she's worth something when she felt fir a long time that she wasn't anymore. Broke my heart when she Said about her family " they killed me " she must have ptsd from a 15 year nightmare losing out on a life from 25 to 40 & her family & ex sleazebag husband & family alienating her from the kids she did everything for. They used those boys from when they were literally baby's to keep her obedient . Like you better do this & stick to the " program " if u want to ever see ur kids. Now those almost adults kids w/ their dad are trashing her like her family does so so sad. On those videos Kevin released their was no abuse. They sounded like spoiled smart mouths. She was just trying to discipline them like any mom would. She must have been heartbroken to learn even her kids were recording her & sending it to their gold digging dad when thry were 11 & 12. It's no wonder they treated her w/ zero respect as she said nobody In her own family was & I'm sure she was bashed to them & they were told she was " crazy"
@@victoriaroyle3980 faith? How. She said she don’t believe in God anymore ……
This was an incredible listen and has completely changed how I viewed her. She is so articulate and emotive and compassionate in this audio. What a gift.
@@Mia-vm6pl lol what. She wants to tell her story and a lot of people are ready to hear it. If you dont want to see her rise again, click away. Its obvs not for you.

They drove her to have a meltdown. Then called her crazy. This is serious abuse. I love you Britney you deserve so much happiness. I wishing you peace and love. Stay strong..❤️❤️❤️
Gaslighted by own family-dang
@@sooofunny37 Indeed.
Yes! I think that’s the part of the story that’s just clicked. She was broken down so that she would ‘go crazy’ so that they could gain this control. So sad
No. She’s had a breakdown and they monitored her the way a mentally Ill person is to be monitored. She’s chalking up to saying no during a rehearsal as to why they supposedly held her prisoner. Everyone seen her spiral down, EVERYONE. She’s mentally ill. Now she’s free to do what she wants and I’m interested to see what’s going to happen next.
When she crashes and burns it’s going to be interesting who you d!ck riders will blame for that? Everyone who screamed foul should be held accountable.
It's happening to my RN, in order to never get my son.
Isn't that ironic that the souls who suffer the most, do so much to protect others from the same experiences?! Pure human soul right there. Nothing but love and respect.
This is crystal clear thinking. She never ceases to impress me. She is stronger than all the haters. She is my hero, man.
Does she have haters? Who?
She wrote it down and then made a recording. Her son's tried to build a relationship with her and she messed it up by walking around naked and constantly nagging them during a psychosis state. No one in their right mind will want to be around a mother like that. Just because it's Britney Spears doesn't make it okay for her to act this way around her children. She is very mentally ill and if something happens to her then Britney fans are to blame. Britney is more in danger with her new husband than she was with her own family who were just trying to help her. Everyone that's close to her says she's not well but a bunch of total strangers disagree with that. Make it make sense!
Her ex and 2 sons!
@@Truthbtold44 Yeah, I don't think she really has too many "haters" these days. She used to, for sure. But it seems that most people can see that she has not led an envious life, despite her wealth. And she really seems like such a sweet person. I think most people just feel badly for her now.
Tbh her incident is so sad to me. In a way the fact she manages to stay strong is amazing to me.
She’s doing such a good job of getting her feelings across, I haven’t heard her speak this eloquently in over a decade. She’s back.
umm did you forget her testimony last year ?
she always was, you just have not been paying attention. She spoke about this in court, she spoke on her IG page. :)
@@sweetlikez I’m very aware of her testimony thank you however I personally believe this was worded a lot better and even more personal
@@lwsandrws I agree. I heard the others also and this was put together better.
@@LisaSmith3663 I agree also. The court testimony actually sounded a bit manic and all over the place at certain times . Not BAD but definitely not as controlled as here .
When taking back your voice is literal. She is so well spoken, lucid, and intelligent. Her truth is no longer silenced and I’m so glad we can hear her voice and what she’s saying. Much love to Britney
Her words at the end ‘you are not alone’ prove how sincere, human and empathetic she truly is - I pray that she finds healing and loves the life she chooses from now on 🙏
Britney Spears is such a bright beautiful light in this world. It breaks my heart she had to experience so much pain from the people who were supposed to love her the most. The fact she’s still going every single day is a miracle on it’s own. The strength inside her is unmatched! And the fact she’s declining any offers to make money only makes me love her more and shows the impact of how deep her pain truly is. So humble. Us fans love you forever and will support you through anything miss Britney Jean!!
Agreed. BTW not only her but also Lindsay, Amanda, Paris, etc.
Britney is the only modern singer I am a fan of and I have been a fan for 24 years now she has a lifelong fan with me her circus tour concert I went to in one of the 2 best concerts I have been to and I was so happy just getting to be in the same building as her it’s sad to hear that total strangers like me were fighting for her freedom when her own mother and sister wouldn’t
@@kevin10001 Same. I mean, despite of what she went through, she's still human. BTW the media also did that to Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes, Michael Jackson, etc.
P.S. No offense but Britney OWNS Katy Perry.
Thanks, dude. Long live Britney Spears, dude.
+1
I'm afraid for her safety. Who owns the media, Hollywood and The music industry? They're very sick people out there. Michael Jackson, Prince, Avicii, Chester Bennington .. tried to expose them and we all know what happened.
Edit: Her instagram page completely disappeared after posting a certain Flag..
Honesty the fact that she is even alive after such horror. Really let’s you know how special and amazingly strong she is.
yes I know something wrong with her team back then she's an inspiration a survivor.
People have gone through a lot worse. I wish I was locked in my mansion with a full staff of people doing everything for me.
@@mave143 while you’re being pumped with meds, locked in treatment centers, being let out to perform and make money for someone else who won’t let you touch a dollar of it?? You know you don’t want that, no one would
It doesn't sound like she was alone enough to even unalive herself. It's so terrible to say. What she went through is worse than prison. It was human trafficking under 24 hour surveillance.
she’s alive bc of her boys ☺️
Yes Britney! Speak and don't stop! Tell your story as many times as you can because the world needs to hear it. You are an incredible woman and I have so much respect for you! Thank you for sharing this! Thank you for showing people what gaslighting is and THANK YOU for speaking....KEEP SPEAKING.
I went to one of her shows in Vegas. I was with friends who were having a grand old time, screaming and laughing and enjoying the show. I have never forgotten how haunting it was to watch her. She did look like a robot, and in so much pain. I actually got emotional and didn’t share it with anyone because I knew people would think I was nutty. So sad to hear this now, and in a small way, just being at that show makes me feel complicit in all they did to her.
I saw her while living in Vegas and she was like a robot during the performance. It was really sad to watch.
You're sweet. I wish there were more people like you in this world🕊
Very sad :( She deserves for everything good.
So many people are emotionally stunned like your friends that's the reason it took so long for her to break free. Strange how it's people who see the truth feel nutty not the stunned ones
@@michelledambraĺ
Brit's kindness has literally always been taken advantage of - from her record label, to producers, to media, and now her family. Looking back at past interviews, Britney has always been incredibly kind and down to earth. She has been exploited by so many for too long. Tell your story, Brit! We love and support you!
Agree she is truly kind..coz if she is not, she would not allow others to treat her that way. Just as an example, maybe that is why Christina has that tough bitch facade going on so that people won't mess with her. I guess it really is difficult and tricky to be a celeb
@@stanbalo It's not tough, dude. There are some who strived easy to be a celeb. Ask Ryan Gosling.
In other words, your guess is wrong. Thanks, dude.
@@stanbalo
No. Christina is a narcissist. That's why she always behaved that way....remember when Pink talked about her shiitty behaviour? Or Mary J Blige talked about Christina A. back in 2000...she said she will never making it bc of her toxic character.
There is something liberating about embracing starting our 40s. she’s grown so much and this shows how down to earth she is. We love you Britney
It is, and it’s a time in life you also look back a little and put things in proper perspective. Then you let go of it eventually and continue to grow in your here and now.
LIBERATING! DEFINETELY. That's the perfect word. Good for Britney... freeing herself from all the secrets and lies and abuse she's endured. Sharing her story. I'm 38 and actually your coment just made me look at my own next chapter more positively! Thanks
It really seems like her family saw how she was being portrayed in the media at the time , 2004/2005, and took advantage of that to put her into the conservatorship so that they could work her and basically use her fame for their own fortune. It's so sad to hear that her whole family was using her; and everyone else, therapists, dancers, producers, etc, just stood by and ignored it or even gaslit her into thinking SHE was in the wrong. She is so strong for surviving all of this abuse and I'm so happy she's telling her story
She would've made sure they had a wonderful life too so there was no reason for any of this.
@@Maya-dc8cb yup that's the worse part. She had no problem sharing her wealth, but clearly they wanted even more . And they didn't want her to be able to say no.
Absolutely her family made out well using their daughter the bastards! I know exactly about this crap.. cuz in some ways this happened to me.. I was placed in foster care but I had been abused.. I was sent away tried to tell.. eventually my abuser was caught not for me though not till 23 yrs later neighbor kids, but I was sent away because he was a powerful man. no one believed me I was put in a program for runaways while in foster care no therapists no one would believe me.. I ended up breaking my hand on a wall.. I know this crap it happens.. and famiies can be the ones who look all oh we care.. and they're the main culprits of abuse.. Love Brithney Spears.. Finally she got her life back.. Amen.
I really don’t understand why Britney hasn’t pressed charges or sued her father. The most she’s managed to do is a book deal but I don’t think that’s enough. I wish she would stand up for herself more.
Everyone around Britney was paid off to keep the family narrative. She was horribly abused and she should press charges against every one of her family members that took part in her abuse and gained financially because of it. All the money they took from her should be returned with interest and she should be compensated for the years of her life that were taken from her and for the abuse she endured. She can never get back those years nor can she get back the time she missed with her boys. Her family is pure evil.
And this is why Wendy Williams was CORRECT in what she said about Britney’s parents
What did she say?
The fact that you are talking about it, gives you inner strength and resilience.
Britney I believe you one hundred percent. I am a witness that those kinds of things happens.
Good to hear her voice being "there". So "normal" and "aware". Girl went through hell and back. The fact that Fans got her out of this is equally beautiful and sad. The closest people to her used her....and the fans, the people celebrities get annoyed at, were there to get her out of it.
The media also kicked her too.
Yes very much so. Exploited her shockingly
to be fair she was never rude to fans or annoyed at them.
Her fans truly saved her life. And she knows that and she's so grateful for them.
@@mmartin685 Her Close friends too, Michelle.
Love how she isn't motivated by money.... she has learned to the extreme- of how money can be the root of all evil. She has such an innocence about her- and her being so badly abused, is heart wrenching. How could Family do this to her? What must be so hard for her now... is trying to accept all that she's lost. It's not as simple as her moving on- her grief must be unimaginable 💔
MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ

It seems like her family still own her money so why would she want them to gain from her speaking out? I’m sure she’ll address things publicly when she is truly free from her family and legalities
Some things money can't buy, esp after being basically enslaved in the 21st century. Hope someone gets revenge on those who perpetrated this.
She is the ying to my yang
MARIALUZ
She was literally tortured. James Spears is a criminal and her family was complicit of the CRIME. She was physically, mentally, and emotionally violated for over a decade. They need to pay for this. Britney deserves JUSTICE. This is absolutely appalling, it’s unacceptable. #JusticeForBritney
Right on. BTW the media too, pal. I mean, they also kicked Britney, LiLo, Amanda, Demi, Kesha, the Olsens, Paris, Nicole, Whitney, MJ, etc. during their toughest of times.
Again, I completely agree, dude. #JUSTICEFORBRITNEY #THEMEDIASUCKS
Stop blaming just the father. Her MOTHER lived the high life all on Britney too.
Yes! Yes! Yes! She NEEDS justice
Look at the people--the woman she mentioned behind the family that benefitted and put her family up to it--they are all to to blame. But you have to also look at how 4hey are going after people with money. She didnt know the threat of choosing jail /court would have given her rights that she didn't have. That Surprise Witness should be credited for all the work
All the work she did, and giving up her New Manhatten high paying job to stand up for Brittany and people like her--she stood up to the woman and whomever is behind her too. It's how they prey on these people that have on knew and that are vulnerable. I'm very glad that Brittany didn't let anyone benefit off her story. Her family and other people really need to pay for what they did to her, but they do this to people who are not famous but have money they will go after you--its sick!
I was locked away as child. By my adoptive abusive alcoholic parents. Being isolated and locked away is one of the most damaging things for a human to go through. The trauma almost destroyed me entirely. It's taken 2 decades to feel safe anywhere, anytime. Britney is an absolute HERO. To go through what she's been through and come out of it able to speak so clearly and passionately about her trauma is inspirational. I hope that posting this made her feel empowered for even a few months. Wherever she is right now I hope she's safe.
Where is Britney??
I’m so glad you made it out of that situation and are able to speak on it today ❤
This is her Pheonix rising moment and I'm so so proud of her. She has no idea who I am but she was right there in every step of my childhood/young adulthood.
People with a genuine soul like Britney will always be taken advantage of, this is the sad world we live in, listening to this audio is so heartbreaking 💔 I wish you healing Britney and to come back to your real self, doing what you love and taking full power over your life, you deserve it. 🙏🏽
Yes AMEN
The media also owes Lindsay Lohan some apologies as well.
So true. She is a good soul
Amen sister. The best people get treated the worst it seems.. it makes you hate the world but the best way to change the world is not letting others get to you and continue putting out all the good you can out there
@@SusanaXpeace2u Indeed she is Susan.
I kept hearing about some sort of “crazed rant.” This is not a crazed rant. This is a well edited, thoughtful retelling of her experiences, because she didn’t want to be paid for her story. I don’t understand how this could be offensive to anyone besides the villains in her family.
Right? That devil Lou Taylor is spinning the negative bs!
PR from the family - they’ve prob hired a firm to try to protect themselves and tarnish Britney
Boom 💥 💥 💥
Seriously... I left a long term abusive relationship a number of years ago now. It pales in comparison to the level of control and manipulation Brittney experienced. But when I told my story to people after I left, I sounded unhinged for quite some time. Now, I can speak with this type of clarity, but it took years of battling PTSD to get there. She has great strength as a survivor and this is in no way a rant. She's just being real.
I spent most of my childhood in facilities just like the one Britney was sent to. Also had to bathe and change in front of everyone. Forced to take medications that weren’t mine, wasn’t allowed to contact my family or friends, and so much more. I feel her pain, I feel her trauma. My heart breaks for Britney, I was saved by my great grandparents in 2010 while she’s been stuck in that situation for almost as long as I’ve been alive.
I needed to hear this, I needed to know I’m not alone and that even someone as famous as Britney Spears has been through something similar to me. I will forever love Britney and I have nothing but respect for her. She’s going to be the voice of change and hopefully put a stop to those facilities.
Hi Vayla. Sorry to hear your story and I am sorry you had to go through all this. Families can be crule and hurtful. I am glad you are out and safe. Remember it was done to you - but it is not you.
and you're saying you have/had no mental health issues?
I’m sorry this happened to you. Thank you for sharing your story. I hope you have started to heal and you know your worth. No one deserves to be treated this way. Hugs to you x
Facilities and greedy parents
Sorry to hear that you also endured the things Britney endured, Vayla. I mean, I have empathy for Britney. I don't search her 2007 bald and breakdown photos. Not to mention that I don't search for Paris, LiLo, Nicole, Mischa and Amanda's mug shots either because I also have empathy for them. In other words, I have empathy for those female celebs.
BTW wishing you healing alongside Britney, Vayla.
I admire her for doing this in her own words! She didn’t let anyone else twist her words around, she is in control now!
I love she's talking posting online ppl keep saying she's out of it she's awkward bc she was by herself ppl paid to invade her privacy and help her family treat her like a work horse she is basically learning how to act and be brit like be an individual and not on concoction of meds to drive her insane I hope she continues to shine bc she's been through hell and I do wanna believe her hubby is a good thing for her bc up until he cMe along she stayed silent I think he gave her that push she just needed someone good on her side someone who genuinely cared loved her not her money ect. And him signing a prenup made me like him more bc he actively works too I just hope she's happy and she sees her kids when she wants
Spot on! If she did a network interview her words would have been twisted. It’s Britney’s turn to speak from her heart! No media cuts, no cliffhangers, no questions, just her in her own words. We love you Britney!
The REALEST I’ve ever heard her. As upsetting as this is i feel a massive sense of relief. She now has a VOICE ❤️ God bless her soul. The universe better heal her!
Unbelievable that not a single doctor had confirmed that Britney's guardianship was necessary, indefinite guardianship, of all things. this also happened to Marilyn Monroe at the time, a forced admission, Joe diMaggio then took her out of the psychiatric institution. That this is still possible 50 years later is frightening and the law should prevent this. It's all about power and money in the end. Britney you are a survivor and a true hero❤️
The rage she must be dealing with is unimaginable. I’m not sure if she’s at that stage yet or already dealt with it. But if my family did to me what her family did to her. I don’t think I’d ever get over the rage I was forced to keep inside. She had her children stolen from her. She lost the ability to be the Mom she always wanted to be, and deserved to be. That’s something that can’t ever be returned to her. That’s time she’ll never get back. It’s so heartbreaking and unfair.
I feel like I constantly go between grief/resentment/sadness/and rage. Especially since no matter how hard I try, I can't escape my family because of my circumstances. I believe I am truly stuck.
My parents tried to take my children when I was 18 as a form of retribution for me speaking against them. I called my mom a hypocrite in an argument and they decided I had to pay for that crime. They are both narcissists. They kidnapped my children and gave them to my abusive ex-husband. I fought all three of them for ten years and finally won in court when neuropsychologists produced an in-depth report of the abuse, but my children have PTSD. There isnt really “winning” in a scenario like that. The rage I felt for them was unimaginable. I still cry sometimes thinking about the pain they caused my children. My ex used them to punish me for leaving him. It was literal hell. I have gone on to get multiple degrees and create an amazing business. At my lowest I always remember “Freedom is what you do with what’s been done to you.” I am so sorry for the suffering your family inflicted. That betrayal feels impossible to bear. Lots of love 🤍
If you're on drugs, wasting all your money, etc. that's the ONLY way you leave yourself open to this kind of garbage. I know becuase I did nothing wrong but get drunk every weekend and they took my kid away but I know I chose drinking f them LoL
I have a lot in common with britney. My family has felt like my sabotages rather than a loving family who wants me to be successful. It's hard to deal with the rage...I try daily...I pray both me and her will be free from it
Lots of women are used as brude mares or sold to pay rent. Most of us don't have the earning capacity to be pro sti tute Ed for 15 yrs though.
Proud of Brit for living thru this.
This is why I love Britney. She’s real, talented, honest and extremely resilient. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I agree
I’m so sad and mad for her. Despite being ‘free’ she’s still dealing with the ‘trauma’. But this chat shows she was fully aware, but scared. It wasn’t a ‘illness’ that kept her in her conservatorship but fear. Imagine being a 25 year old and scared to live your life?!?!? I want a comeback, all sparkly and shiny, BUT I’m no longer putting any expectations on Britney. For the rest of her life she should be able to do whatever she wants. And if people don’t like it, they need to look the other way.
Yeah, I just want her to be happy. She endured something horrific and she deserves to just be free.

@@rattymanx it really is and I’m glad she brave enough to let it out
True. This is nothing for an interviewer or a tv show to gain money and fame with. This is just for herself to learn to gain confidence and speaking about this more freely day by day. It is her life
I’d like an interview so her story would have a huge visibility and her family would be more exposed!
Her family tried to steal her light, but now she is shinning brighter than ever. Growing up britney was everwhere, tv, radio, you name it. I overlooked her then, but after reading her book, and listneing to all her music i see how talented and special she really is. Blessings to her healing
Britney is a pure soul which was taken advantage off not just by the music industry and media but her own vile family. It's just tragic and sad but I'm so proud of her to stay true to herself, never loosing her humanity in the midst of this mayhem
It’s unimaginable what this woman went through. It is so messed up that it can keep you up at night, thinking what a cruel, inhuman world we live in. A world where you can’t trust your own family, the people closest to you. She’s a survivor of immense abuse. I’m just hoping her healing process makes her stand strong, healthy and happy again. Britney, your family didn’t love you and didn’t deserve you. But the world does. We love you and support you Britney.
Even more frightening is that this happened to a superstar. The sheer amount of abuse that goes on and is cosigned by the legal system is enormous! There are communities dedicated to it on every social media platform. I'm so glad she's helped to shine some light on it, but we have a long way to go. This system is inhumane, and yes it is incredibly cruel because this always comes down to money and power, not love and truth.
@@EMILYHERRERA IKR Emily. BTW I also like The Smiths, girl.

The fact that she wanted to tell her story, to her fans, without getting paid for it, says a lot about her. I think she’s a kind, generous and down to earth person. Unfortunately, her family took advantage of that. Good on her for finding her confidence and now being able defend her and her young self. I don’t know how her family can sleep at night!

I love that Brittany is speaking directly to her fans, noncontrived and no middle man. maybe she realizes she does not need a middle man anymore. She is too famous and loved. I have so much more respect for her now. Based on the testimony she is sharing to all survivors of gaslighting and intimidation, she is growing into not just a pop star, but a hero. It takes courage to speak when your village turns it back on you. There is a reason she rose to stardom.
So well said. It's tragic what she went through, but she showed so much strength and endurance... and then triumphed.
I’m glad she’s free! She was so young! Amazingly she’s survived!
This is the first time I feel like I’ve heard Britney in a long time. So glad she is getting her voice back.
I felt the same way listening to this.
Also Britney has the best fanbase in the history of the world to fight for her when no one else believed her. I'm not a fan or hers but I feel so much empathy for her. Bless everyone who paved the way to finally the end the abuse.
I don’t believe it’s over. Not whilst she records records and makes all these greedy people money

This audio supports that observation 100%. Poor Britney. I hope she gets back peace and calmness she was ripped off so harshly in one moment.
This just infuriates me, as a mother myself. Growing up with Brittany and then becoming a mother myself. How can a mother allow anyone to treat her child, regardless if she was 17 or 30, like she was treated? how? HOW? I am so sorry Brittany 😞 I am sending you so many positive vibes and big hugs straight from my heart and I know you got this..you are strong girl.
Her family only saw money, Britney's money.
Britney is more than an icon, she’s an American Legend. From her humble beginnings, to her meticulous dedication, her perseverance through public denigration, devastating betrayal, silencing and imprisonment, to breaking the chains that bound her… she is a phoenix. Her story is that of a hero, once on top, torn down by villains and lies but never truly defeated. She’s a force.
Nobody could have said this better 💯💯💯❤️
@@logandelahunt5293 thank you!
YES! EXACTLY!
Amen!!!
It breaks my heart the trauma she has to live with, as somebody ao with cptsd and constant anxiety & depression..even I can't comprehend the magnitude what she's gone through and the entire world couldn't save her for SO LONG.
She speaks so coherently and articulately. This is what she should have done from the beginning. This shows her humanity and empathy and authenticity in a way nothing else has. I'm glad she's braving the judgment.
I mean they mentally broke her mentally abused her like she said he threatened her made her go to center over saying no once that's form of most horrible mental abuse ever. .....I freaking love she's talking posting online ppl keep saying she's out of it shes crazy ect. And the media runs with oh brit is crazy no the media helped her imprisonment no one deserved what she's been through......she's awkward bc she was by herself and ppl paid to invade her privacy and help her family treat her like a work horse she was cut off from everyone he called all shots and if she acted up her kids were used against her or hey we will lock u up....she is basically learning how to act and be brit like be an individual and not on concoction of meds to drive her insane I hope she continues to shine bc she's been through hell and I do wanna believe her hubby is a good thing for her bc up until he cMe along she stayed silent I think he gave her that push she just needed someone good on her side someone who genuinely cared loved her not her money ect. And him signing a prenup made me like him more bc he actively works too I just hope she's happy and she sees her kids when she wants
She's always been eloquent. Britney is a survivor, she will rise again.
She sounds absolutely sane and normal. She is talking very calm. ❤ She is a strong person! ❤️
Lots of love to anyone who is suffering and alone. I love that she made her own recording without any influence from a journalist, let’s hear Britney’s incredible VOICE speaking her TRUTH 👏👏👏
extremely humble, human and honest. you deserve the best britney. its heartbreaking how many people still suffer from control and are not free.
It’s hard to break free. Britney still isn’t free. She still a money machine for others 😞 and controlled. She’s tough, but I doubt she’ll get freedom , ever. It’s sick.
Indeed. BTW no offense but Britney OWNS Ariana Grande, Dua Lipa, Katy Perry, ToOve Lo and Carly Rae Jepsen.
Thanks, dude. Long live Britney Spears, dude.
The ending is so powerful. I'm also shy and lonely. She is so relatable. No one can give her those years back but at least she is free now and has her life back. I wish her the best. We ❤️ Britney.
Indeed Dominic.
Thanks, dude. Britney 4 life, dude. #britney4life
Speaking up freely really sets your soul free...hurray for this great woman because before being an artist (great artist by the way) she is a human being. May God keep blessing your life, Britney 💚
MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ💚
And most of us who actually love her have been her fans for who she is as a person ❤️
Exactly and it's her own story not someone else's narrative!
She is insanely strong human being despite of a jealous asshole god doing this to her
My soul just yearns for her. I pray she's doing what SHE wants to now. That's all we can hope for. Sending protection, positivity, love and light to you Britney.
The end about us introverts made me emotional. I have so much respect for her, since introverts need their alone time I really don't know how she was able to put up with all those people constantly invading her privacy. She's a hero. Brit you're the best!!! Your children will be able to see this when they"ll get older...you're the freakin best!!! It's not easy to stand up for yourself in an appalling situation like the conservatorship was. Hope you will heal one day and be able to leave all this mess behind. Sending you the biggest hug 🤗
💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
Yes, I am slowly learning this about my own family. I’m extroverted and autistic and it’s so hard being around my family and friends because they’re all introverted and they get angry with me for being so open and talkative and sharing my problems and life story with people. I’m slowly learning to respect them as hard as it is. I feel like the introverts in my life don’t care about me because I get lectured or yelled at for being a bubbly social person. You’d think they’d be grateful their autistic friend/relative is talkative but no they want me to be quiet because they think autistic people should be silent and that its wrong for us to talk so I eventually learned to mask and pretend to be introverted to make them happy but inside my spirit and soul I am screaming to be free to be me. It’s sad. Introverts are forced to be social and extroverts are silenced. It isn’t right. I’m glad Britney took a stand to address this.
Yeah it's bloody luck alone that little boy she almost dropped on his head on concrete is still alive.
The most incredible part of her story is that she was prevented from getting her own attorney. There should be laws against this. She had no way to fight for her legal rights. As far as I'm concerned, there should be laws in every state protecting the rights of all persons to get their own legal representation.
I'm a weird, introvert, oddball as well. You inspire me daily and your strength and resilience is an inspiration. We love you Britney. ❤
Me too! And I literally broke down in tears last night because I felt so powerless and useless. Seeing Britney say this made me feel a little better. We need more honest people like her.
That’s my life everyday !
It’s heart wrenching to hear this from her. She is a brilliant person who’s is suffering from narcissistic abuse. And through this she still wants to help out! A true heart of gold!
@Dessy Didova
Indeed. I wish her only hapiness. i was 18 when someone wanted to do something similar to me. I had refused to marry him (after what I thought was a silly parenthesis) Bastard drugged my food and had me hospitalized, after a few days of hospital non drugged food the doctors understood that what I was saying was the truth, that I was fine and they let me go. But I remember being in that hospital at night and could sleep from anxiety thinking how the hell did I get here ?!! and can he be this controlling ? how am i gonna get away from him. I did indeed get away, but I can't help thinking back sometimes at the risk I run and what a turn my life had taken in such a short span of time..... bless Britney !
Can you even imagine being her child and listening to this when you grow up? What a profound effect this had on their mother and how ultimately their fate was altered drastically along with hers.
We love you, Britney.
Sadly her kids are probably brainwashed into treating her the same. Her dad has surrounded her with a team of narcissists.
One of her kids did an Instagram live and said he’d spill secrets about his mom if X amount of people followed him. Everyone exploits her.
The "kids" are on the dad's side. I bet. Maybe when they turn 18 they will do something to help thier mother. If not then we know what kind of people they grew up to be. fact.
@@gabynarufan if they don’t it doesn’t automatically make them bad people, they have grown up in a family where this would be normalised behaviour and also have likely been tormented themselves by the same people that tormented Britney, so have likely developed extremely complex trauma responses to survive. Things are not this black and white. I hope they can have a relationship with their mother but if they don’t pursue a relationship with her or choose to wait a while before doing so then that’s valid too.
@@rhiannonhuston9855 stop victimizing her spoiled rich kids. I'm sure her dad (their grandpa) was a prick to them but he wasn't after her children, he was after Britney and her money. Kevin actually didn't even want the kids to see Jamie spears and kept them from being around him. I don't think her kids even have a part in any of this. They're only 15-16 and are too busy being rich teenagers. I'm sure they aren't sitting down following all the events that happened and getting involved in their moms conservatorship case. But from the looks of it, her kids are alot like Kevin federline which isn't a good thing. But it also makes sense...she had her kids ripped away from her and didn't get to raise them in the way she wanted so their main influence is Kevin and the weirdo's Kevin hangs out with.
Do you realize how her voice changes as the audio goes on? ....as if she were talking to a real friend opening up her heart. Her voice (her heart) is gaining confidence 👏
MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ MARIA LUZ👏🏼
She works with the most high holy sacred spirit. She is a light worker as I am.
And that's why she decided to open up to us as her fans who have been with her all these years. She's not fake, doesn't need money for interviews like Meghan Markle lol she's not a sellout, she just wanted to speak her truth ❤️
@@geoplanetaire IKR Morgan. BTW don't compare her to Meghan Markle.
P.S. Don't "lol" Meghan. That's degrading her, b***h.
Thanks, girl.
No it sounds put on. Her normal voice is when she was telling her kids off.
The latter half of her life is now left with no family, trust trauma. She deserves all the support and love this world can give her. Thank god for those fans that fought for her or what would've happened to her.... The public treated them like obsessed teenyboppers but its ironic how the justice system got it so wrong for too long
that's because the justice system probably didn't get it wrong, a lot of people were sure as hell paid off by his father or accomplices, or voluntarily turned a blind eye because they didn't want to risk their little comfort by speaking up. That's actually how most witnesses to abuse respond, courage, dignity and basic empathy is rare.
Yes. We are here Britney. Lots of us out here love you and you were treated horribly by your family. There are some good people out here. Keep trusting your instincts and reaching out. Love ya, W
They took “living through their kids” to a toxic level. I knew there was more to this story than what they were saying… always supported you brit. Your strength and resilience is so admirable. There’s a lot of people that wouldn’t have made it through what you went through, there’s so many people that would’ve given up and your story has probably given so many people, especially young women so much inspiration and motivation to do better for themselves and assurance that there is a light at the end of every tunnel. I love you Brit brit, you’re the best. Stay safe and keep your head up!💕
I'm moved by Britney Spears for sharing her story. She has motivated me to find my independence and to learn how to not be afraid to stand up for myself. Even against my own family.
Yes but remember she has also strength from her current love and he is a lawyer . She is not alone. She has powerful support from him :)
‘’Strangers on the street were out there fighting for me, but my sister & my mother were doing nothing’’ 😢 my heart sunk 💔
What an incredibly strong and inspiring woman. Her experience of life in this world has been very unique to her and she has endured so much trauma, and yet she is still standing and with so much humility. I really hope she feels how much love and compassion there is for her in the world, and while that won't heal the trauma of her family's abuse and betrayal, I hope it brings her comfort and lets her know how many people admire her.
Britney's dad and manager(s) trafficked her and should be hit for every penny they've gotten from her talent and hard work. That her own mother, sister, and brother kept silent is equally horrific. Rise like the phoenix, Britney!
U took the words right outta my mouth… shit makes me cringe knowing what they did to her…
Every time she’s able to speak on her own terms it’s very evident that she’s a completely sound, clear thinking person. It’s WILD that her dad was able to basically keep her as a drugged up machine due to a technicality in the law. Throw him AND all of the medical professionals involved with this malpractice, in jail.
Please
It's almost like she went through decades of therapy & learned her voice even tho she was never allowed to say it too loudly. So proud of her. 😌👁
The end did it for me. Despite all of this, she's really saying she made this recording just to help other people feel less lonely. It's the empathy and the kindness this woman has.
She didn't deserve any of what happened to her. I hope she gets all the help and love she desires.
@@dopecat_truecrime says the meme account.
Brittany I'm so glad you got out of there. Narcissistic abuse is so misunderstood and the abuser is so good at manipulating other to believe that the victim of their abuse is crazy. Wake up judicial system. You have it 1000% WRONG.Brittany No contract is the only way to go. I know. Also your family was more than likely manipulated and or scared to do anything. Look what your father was capable of doing. Believe in God and your dad will have his judgement day.
@@dopecat_truecrime ehh.... ever heard of Stockholm syndrome? or... the fact she had been in show business since a baby with managers and "babysitters" her entire life which means she doesnt have the same thought process as an everyday NOBODY citizen like yourself. Grow up like that and you really DONT realize how things COULD be or the "repercussions". Do you think maybe she wants to be near her sons? even if my sons "didnt want to see me" bc they are MINORS who wouldn't understand any of it I would never leave the state without my kids over my fucking dead body. you must have a dick, or no children.
@@dopecat_truecrime I think if you were under people's thumb yet forced to work and make money FOR THEM for 15 years...you may want to talk about it
@@dopecat_truecrime Maybe she doesn't WANT anonymity. She wants her voice back
She is so FUCKING courageous! To be this vulnerable in front of the world. Some people can never share their trauma and she's doing it so publicly. Thank you, baby!
History will remember Britney kindly.
I love her. She's fucking brilliant. You can feel that undercurrent flowing even under this gigantic shitpile of trauma she went through. I have so much respect for her!
Yea. Respect for sure. . It’s. Not right that calvary church is. Mega church and they behind all this too. Tristar is a front for these abusing church people. .. they. Make me relize it’s best to just live a private life. .. if you wan t. A. Private life. ..I know I do. .. I don’t want fame or attention or. Anything like that because of religion and church ⛪️ and cults. Behaviour. / I just find it all disturbing now in life. ..
Poor Britney. This breaks my heart. I hope she’s ok now 💕
OMG, that was the MOST RIVETING,REAL,RAW thing I have ever heard! I felt almost like I was listening to a really good friend.
Thank you Britney Spears for sharing yourself and letting the rest of us know that we're ALL OK!
SO POWERFUL!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ya'll remember her Instagram posts and how weird they were? And people were always saying save Britney, and I just wasn't sure about it... but it did feel off. I'm so happy this is all coming out, and I am SO happy she is speaking out. We love you Brit!
glad u saw what was actually going on, there are people who know this is her story full well and still harrass her and make fun of her just bc of her ig its disgusting. the fact that people could know this and still be cruel to her, they are just as bad as the rest who hurt her. amen to that, we love you Britney!!!
@@sharks9555 Totally agree! And listening to this recording shows exactly how scared she was of telling the truth due to being manipulated and controlled. Look what they already got away with. Nobody is perfect that's for sure, but they did her dirty big time.
I remember being called crazy and overdramatic for saying something is wrong and look at the situation now.
It's so nice to hear her story from her. People forget she used to be so open and share like this a lot. She used to share her thoughts on her site, she shared her relationship and tour and wedding with a mini series she recorded herself, etc. It was one of the things that built her following, treating her fans like people and sharing with us to show she was human too. My heart breaks that she was put thru all of this and I'm thrilled she has her freedom, is finding her joy and her voice again.
2:42 “The extent of my ‘madness’ was playing chase with the paparazzi, which still to till this day, is the most fun thing I ever did being famous” QUEEN 👸🏼
I wanted to cry at the end when she mentioned her song with Elton John, like it was finally a positive thing after all she went through. She seems so kind and lovely, she did not deserve all that.
The pain in her voice breaks my heart. I wish her so much happiness and love. So glad you're free Britney.
Thanks for sharing this.
I know her voice sounds like she has been scared her whole life
it's so refreshing to hear Britney speak from the heart and be so guarded. I feel like this is the only time she's ever been ALLOWED to just SPEAK .
💯
Not** be so guarded
I didn’t think I could possibly love this woman more than I already did! Just wow. I hope she hand picks her own team for future work projects and holds her head up high. I just hope all those toxic, controlling, narcissistic people around her in the conservatorship gets punishment.
Her dad is a narcissist and she was his victim. So sad, so badly abused and completely helpless. I’ve never been a big Britney fan but mad props, she’s hardcore and she survived.
What I’ve always loved about Britney is that she reminds us that she is human and isn’t trying to be perfect. She’s truly a great source of motivation for me to not give up on life and that there’s always a new chapter waiting around the corner.
This is beyond madness that she had to go through. She’s a very strong woman. Love you Britney
It’s actually refreshing to hear her sound like an intelligent and genuine human which is a HUGE contrast from her weird Instagram posts. It seems like two different people.
Totally agree. Something is not right with her Instagram.
Yes Instagram in general has never been right it’s all just a front
She doesn’t control her IG after she gets that blue check they control her IG now.
They’re not weird. They’re coded…
@@FitnessBran she def controls her instagram😂
The unimaginable strength of this woman…My God.
her voice is pure heaven for my ears, it's so pretty and soft
IKR dude.
Poor Britney, she had to go through so much... It's so great she can finally speak out! We love you Brit!!!💗
MARIA LUZ!!!💗
The media still owes Britney an apology. Lindsay Lohan and Amanda Bynes too.
If you didn't think they controlled all of her media, these statements make it abundantly evident. The fact that she thinks/thought that people were still judging her or doubting her story, or wouldn't believe her, says that, that's what she was being told by the purple around her. I don't think that she had ever truly seen what the "free Britney" movement was actually about, and the amount of love and support she had, until this last year. If she had the ability to read the tweets, posts, and videos being posted in support, I think she would have reached out sooner. The level of fear and manipulation in her life for over a decade is just horrifying.
