BRITNEY Spears clapped back at her haters in a lengthy Instagram message and said the amount of “mean comments” she gets “hurts” her feelings.
The 38-year-old pop star candidly revealed the online criticism she gets for her social media posts has taken a toll on her and begged followers to stop the “bullying.”
The Toxic singer regularly posts glimpses of her life to her 23 million Instagram followers and has become known for her in-home fashion shows.
While many fans praise Britney’s quirky social media presence, some online have been harsh about her behavior.
The blonde beauty slammed her critics with a picture that read: “Nobody watches you harder than the people that can’t stand you.”
She wrote the emotional caption alongside the quote: “I’ve read a lot of things online of people criticizing my posts…. saying I post the same 15 pictures with the same red background and wearing the same white bathing suit.
“For me I get really excited about my posts …. and I like to share them with you all!!!! I’ve never owned a white bathing suit before and I simply liked the red background!!!!”
The Slumber Party songstress has posted 18 different pictures against the same red wall since March 2.
She posed solo in a plunging white swimsuit and also looked fierce in some shots with her 26-year-old boyfriend Sam Asghari – who she has been dating since 2016.
The Grammy winner continued to reveal the harm the “bullying” has caused: “Reading all of the mean comments really hurts my feelings.
“And I wanted to share because you really shouldn’t be saying all of these mean things to someone you don’t even know… this goes for bullying anyone really!!!!!!
“Hard times like we are currently living through should really teach us to be nice to one another!!!!!!
“PS I saw some people were offended by me posting about horses yesterday… I am truly sorry if I offended anyone. I think it’s important to see things that bring happiness during hard times and making light of a situation can sometimes help people!!!!”
She concluded her post on a light note: “I love you all …. stay safe …. and be nice!!!!!”
Yesterday, an excited Britney posted a video from a horseback riding trip she said she took two months ago.
“It makes me want to go riding again so bad !!!! Giddy up my friends…” she wrote with the clip of her as she trekked through the mountains.
One follower commented on the post: “Um… could you like not right now sis?!?! People are dying and we don’t care about your horses!!!!”
“Now is NOT the time to boast about your first world adventures! Use your platform for better!!” Another angry Instagram user wrote.
Britney continues to battle legal drama with her father Jamie Spears over her ongoing conservatorship.
Last week, a source told Us Weekly: “Britney has expressed that she doesn’t want to work again because she doesn’t want to continue to essentially keep herself under the conservatorship.
“Britney resents that her dad is given a monthly allowance which is around $10,000 a month for his services overseeing her finances.”
