Well, Britney Spears is actually no stranger to controversy… however even she could have stepped it up a stage this time!
There is just one pop star we will consider who’s extra hotly debated than Brit — and that’s the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson. Despite the years of proof given about MJ’s alleged abuse of youngsters on the Neverland Ranch, loads of followers nonetheless imagine in his innocence. And they’re coming for Britney since she lastly weighed in on the matter.

Brit signaled her allegiance by voicing her assist for Wade Robson. Sharing a video he made a pair weeks again selling his From Trauma To Triumph podcast, she wrote gushing, if rambling, phrases about her outdated buddy:
“Watch until the end… It warms my heart to see an older man take his time to even speak on such a subject!!! Come on let’s talk about ??? … there is trauma and then there is TRAUMA !!!”
While she doesn’t point out Michael, it’s clear the trauma which impressed Robson to call his podcast. The dancer has lengthy been open along with his allegations towards the Leave Me Alone singer, together with within the highly effective Leaving Neverland documentary. Here’s the total video, btw — Brit deleted her submit already, however it’s clearly nonetheless up on his web page:
Britney mentioned about Wade’s podcast visitor within the preview clip, Dr. Peter A. Levine:
“The thing I thought was beautiful is that he said it’s not necessary at all to remember the details of your trauma!!!”
Yes, she’s again to mentioning her personal alleged abuse in the course of the years of her conservatorship, below the thumb of her father and with out the essential rights of bodily autonomy. She defined:
“For 13 years I was forced to see doctors and talk about my personal life against my will and I was right the whole time !!! You take it to God and if God isn’t listening, like when I was in that place for 4 months against my will … literally not okay at all !!! I took it to a place of strength no one should ever be burdened with … it was the state of mind of desperation and fear and loss of all the people I loved and would die for if no one were around !!!”
About not remembering? She says she would reasonably not — however swears she gained’t abuse medicine or alcohol to neglect:
“I don’t want to remember those things … but I see now I can’t face my past, how do I move forward if I don’t know where I’ve been ??? It’s called I block it out and just survive, that’s when kids turn to substances because they can’t accept the reality !!! I realized I f**king hate alcohol and I’m sorry to let the news peeps down but I don’t do drugs !!! I don’t take drugs !!!”
The Toxic singer principally needed to shout out Dr. Levine’s phrases, concluding her submit:
“When I was younger, I felt fearless. I’m older now and things have changed and I wish the world would too !!! I have one therapist … I probably don’t talk to him as much but I wanted to share this because it genuinely touched my heart to see this older man speak on something that’s incredibly sensitive to my heart !!! There is a complete understanding of what he is saying and I think I’m gonna cry for the rest of my life now!!! God bless you”
She clearly was targeted on her more moderen trauma and never Wade’s MJ stuff. Of course, Britney and Wade have their very own controversial historical past. See, Wade was the dancer Britney had a fling with when she was courting Justin Timberlake again within the day. It was that dishonest scandal that led JT to do his notorious spite bop Cry Me A River — and perhaps even the IRL model of the revenge within the music video.
So it’s fascinating she selected to submit a video which, whereas specializing in a visitor’s phrases, did very a lot plug Wade’s podcast. Especially since she’s supported Michael Jackson up to now. MJ’s followers clearly felt betrayed as a result of they went HARD for her on social media! Here’s a sampling:
“oh britney jean spears… out of everybody you could’ve used as an example of a victim with trauma you used a liar that exploited Michael’s death with a f**k ass documentary knowing that Michael couldn’t defend himself ??”
“Disappointed yet not surprised given that she was having an affair with him whilst Brandi was still with him”
“Britney must’ve known what it was like to be in Michael’s shoes, as she also suffered from the same “price of fame” and “personal abuses” Michael went via. And Michael suffered, was bullied, was demonized means an excessive amount of and way more. I can by no means settle for what she did this time.”
“She will delete this, she’s always been a huge supporter of Michael. Let’s wish for the best”
Well… we imply that final one was proper, she did delete. Though whenever you’re speaking about somebody who deletes nearly all her posts, that isn’t essentially an indication she retracts the assertion.
Do YOU assume Britney meant this as implicit assist of Wade’s longstanding allegations towards Michael? Or only for Wade and his podcast usually? Is it attainable to do one with out the opposite??
