Britney Spears calls out Christina Aguilera over conservatorship response
Spears posted a clip to her social media accounts of Aguilera declining to comment on her recent conservatorship battles
Britney Spears is now free of the conservatorship that she lived under for 13 years, a restrictive and stifling legal arrangement that controlled vast swathes of the superstar’s life: Her finances, her medical decisions, her career, and more. Said control extended all the way down to Spears’ use of social media, which was largely managed by outside forces during the decade-plus legal arrangement.
Now that Spears is no longer laboring under these constraints—with the conservatorship having finally been terminated on November 12—she’s exercising her god-given right to use social media the same way the rest of us have all been deploying it for all of that same period: To publicly address people we feel have done us wrong.
Specifically, Spears posted an Instagram Stories post this weekend in which she called out fellow Mickey Mouse Club alum Christina Aguilera for apparently dodging a question she was asked about Spears’ conservatorship while on the red carpet for the Latin Grammys. When a reporter asked Aguilera whether she’d had any communication with Spears, a publicist swiftly stepped in with a “No, we’re not doing that tonight,” while Aguilera noted that she’s “happy for her,” and walked away.
