Britney Spears has called documentaries about her conservatorship arrangements “hypocritical” because they perpetuate media interest in her life.
Her comments follow the airing of two films focusing on the conservatorship she has been under since 2008.
The first, Framing Britney Spears, was released by the New York Times in February and examined how the singer has been treated by the media and those around her.
A second, The Battle for Britney: Fans, Cash and a Conservatorship, was released by the BBC at the weekend. It was made available on iPlayer and will be shown on BBC Two on Wednesday.
Another documentary is currently in development at Netflix, while a fourth is reportedly being planned by the singer herself.
According to Monday’s post, however, Spears is not happy to see her legal affairs and her often turbulent past scrutinised anew.
“So many documentaries about me this year with other people’s takes on my life,” the singer wrote in a heavily punctuated, emoji-filled message.
“These documentaries are so hypocritical… they criticize the media and then do the same thing? Damn… I don’t know y’all but I’m thrilled to remind you all that although I’ve had some pretty tough times in my life, I’ve had waaaayyyy more amazing times in my life and unfortunately my friends… I think the world is more interested in the negative.”
She added: “Isn’t this supposed to be a business and society about THE FUTURE? Why highlight the most negative and traumatizing times in my life from forever ago?”
