Britney Spears Deletes A Few Posts Following 24 Hour Instagram Hiatus

It seems Britney Spears has returned to Instagram after deactivating her account on the afternoon of Saturday, September 16.

The 41-year-old Princess of Pop frequently deactivates and reactivates her Instagram account from time to time. She rarely shares a reason for what prompted her decision to deactivate social media, but her latest social media hiatus might have been inspired by some pretty negative comments on her last post.

On Saturday afternoon, the “Toxic” singer decided to deactivate her Instagram account, but it is now up and running again, minus a few posts that she deleted upon her return on September 17. The deactivation came only one day after a major posting spree on Friday, which included her posting, deleting, and then re-posting, several different posts that all contained throwback photos of various outfits that she wore in her earlier dancing videos.

Although she usually leaves comments off, she decided to turn them on for two different posts. One of the posts was deleted, while the other remained active until she deactivated her account on Saturday. Some of the comments were extremely critical of her social media behavior. “Funny how you allow comments on this post. But not where you look positively psychotic!!” one user exclaimed. “From queen of pop to laughing stock. It’s definitely entertaining,” another netizen commented. Some fans tried to shut down the negative comments, with one fan responding, “Being a bully says more about you than about her.”

“You have to realize that one of the reasons why people are always talking badly about you on Instagram is because you post photo shoots of yourself dancing with just your underwear and no pants. It makes you look mentally unstable. Please keep your clothes on otherwise no normal person will have respect for you,” another user commented.

“Her body her choice," another fan clapped back. "And if you look back at her tours most of them half naked clothes or very revealing clothes and dancing on stage,” they wrote. “She has been doing the same thing for over 20 years but now is a problem because she is not making money or entertaining people and just having fun.”

That being said, there were some fans who covered the comments of "We Love You" and expressed hope that she would be making a career comeback amid rumors that she was going to be releasing new music along with her memoir, "The Woman In Me," which hits bookshelves this October. Fans told her that they preordered her book and were looking forward to reading her "truth."

“You’re a beautiful person and you are too smart for these people who don’t understand what you’re doing/ the meaning of your posts,” one fan commented. “Don’t let them get to you because they like the idea of you being ‘crazy’ and a mess a little too much," one fan commented. "Love to you.”

Britney Spears Did Not Deactivate Her Twitter Account

Fortunately, Britney did not delete her Twitter account when she deleted her Instagram account. However, most of her page is now devoted to promoting her new memoir. “One of my favorite performances was with an albino python 😳🐍💃🏼 … I still remember how scared I felt when I was handed this snake and took the stage !!! I talked more about this performance and other favorites in my book #TheWomanInMe … I can’t wait for you to read it on October 24th,” she wrote in the caption of a video containing her 2001 performance of "I'm A Slave 4 U" from the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.

In a later tweet, she shared another snapshot of another VMAs performance. “One of my favorite award shows has always been the @vmas !!!” she wrote in the caption. “I had so many great times on that stage and I’ve even been called the ‘Queen of MTV’ 😏😏😏 … I can’t wait to share more VMAs and other award show memories in #TheWomanInMe on Oct. 24 !!!”
