Britney Spears refers to the Super Bowl as the documentary
In an Instagram video, Spears shares her thoughts on Super Bowl 55. However, her followers believe that the pop star is referring to the documentary.
“The moment we’ve all been waiting for last week: The Super Bowl,” Spears begins in her Instagram post. “I was so excited, but honestly, I was rooting for Kansas City, but I was also rooting for the other team. So, it was a little confusing for me. I love sharing.”
Britney Spears’ fans quickly pointed out that she is referring to the documentary. The series was also aired “last week.”
“Queen of knowing we all watched that documentary,” one fan wrote. “We are here for you, Brit!”
In Spears’ next post, she shared a photo of glitter heels. The picture included the words, “She who leaves a trail of glitter is never forgotten.”
The pop icon’s followers believe that she is leaving “breadcrumbs” for fans. They also cannot wait until she can tell her side of the story.
Does Spears’ conservatorship censor her Instagram account?
According to her digital marketing representative, Casey Petrey, Spears creates her posts for Instagram. However, her social media team helps edit the videos and material she shares. Petrey does not believe that Britney Spears is referring to the documentary in her posts.
“Britney is not asking for help or leaving secret messages in her social media accounts,” Petrey explained on Instagram.
The conservatorship controls her finances and significant personal and professional life decisions for her. However, there is no proof that her Instagram account is censored. Although, the #freebritney movement might believe otherwise.
“My work on Britney’s social media does not involve her conservatorship in any way,” Petrey added.
