Singer Britney Spears has been using her personal Instagram page to air grievances since her conservatorship ended. Although fans consider many posts controversial, most bypass them because the singer has much to get off her chest. However, Britney recently made an Instagram post involving fellow pop star Christina Aguilera that many are calling out for being fatphobic.
The post in question, which features a Rodney Dangerfield quote, was posted to Britney’s Instagram on September 13th. In it, she expresses regret for not having bigger-sized dancers, like Christina has, to make herself look smaller. Today, Aguilera has responded. The singer has apparently unfollowed Spears’s Instagram as a silent way of showing her discontent regarding the post.

While most fans consider the post to be ultimately fatphobic, many have stated that Britney intended to show the lack of control she experienced over her career. Still, the quote and the caption were largely insensitive, given that she named a fellow singer.
Britney has made a second post to clear up the drama and stated on her Instagram that she was “by no means being critical of Christina’s beautiful body.” She says she didn’t mention Christina in her post, which is false, but we’ll leave it since both ladies responded in their own ways.

Britney Spears Plans To Never Perform Again
In other Britney Spears news, the singer said she might never perform on stage again. She says this is due to her lack of self-confidence as a result of her former conservatorship as well as public scrutiny. However, in better news, Britney’s duet with Elton John, entitled Hold Me Closer, is doing well on the Billboard charts. This success makes fans hopeful of more new jams, even if she never performs them.
In Christina Aguilera news, the powerhouse singer is working on a new album. There are no details regarding when fans can expect to hear it. Still, it’s the follow-up to her Spanish album, AGUILERA, released earlier this year.
