On Saturday, Britney Spears revealed she was injured after falling down the stairs at a friend’s house. She shared details about the accident in a video on her Instagram account, where she is seen dancing and posing in a dimly lit room.
“Psss I fell down the stairs at my friend’s house … it was horrible,” she wrote. In the video, the 43-year-old singer shows off her right leg and knee wrapped in bandages, as well as some on her hands.
“it snaps out now and then, not sure if it’s broken but for now it’s snapped in !!!Thank u god” she added in the message.
In the recording, Spears maintains a serene expression, approaches the camera, and gestures in a prayer gesture to the rhythm of Robin Thicke’s song “Lost Without U.”
At the beginning of the text accompanying the video, she mentions her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James. “My boys had to leave and go back to Maui,” she said, referring to the 19- and 18-year-olds.
She added: “This is the way I express myself and pray through art … father who art in heaven … I’m not here for concern or pity, I just want to be a good woman and be better … and I do have wonderful support, so have a brilliant day !!!”
In recent years, the singer has maintained a constant presence on social media, sharing dance videos and messages addressed to her followers.
Some fans celebrate her posts, while others express concern for her well-being.
Since announcing the indefinite cancellation of her Las Vegas residency in 2019 and her subsequent admission to a psychiatric clinic, the pop star has opted to communicate primarily online.
In 2021, Britney Spears addressed criticism of her dance videos, which are common in her social media content.
“For those of you who choose to criticize my dancing videos … look I’m not gonna be performing on any stages anytime soon with my dad handling what I wear, say, do, or think,” she shared, referring to her father Jamie Spears, who served as her conservator until that year.
The “Toxic” singer is no stranger to injuries. In 2004, she suffered a knee injury that forced her to cancel a series of shows and put her on hiatus from a career marked by intense touring and complex choreography.
Going & going & going is all I’ve ever known since I was 15 years old,” she wrote in a message to fans on her website at the time. “It’s amazing what advisors will push you to do, even if it means taking a naive, young, blonde girl & putting her on the … .”
And she concluded her message by noting that she wanted to “enjoy all the simple things I’ve missed out on over the past few years due to working too hard.”
Worries surround Britney Spears’ daily life
Britney Spears’ personal life is facing renewed scrutiny following the end of her conservatorship in 2021. Those close to her describe a household situation marked by disarray and a lack of hygiene.
“Britney is having an episode right now, and we’ll see how she deals with it as she has for years,” a source was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
The environment remains a constant source of concern. “She’s not well at all. Her house is a mess. She doesn’t clean up after the dogs, there’s no one cleaning up after her daily, and she’s simply not functioning as an adult would,” a family member explained.
According to the British tabloid, friends and family recognize this pattern and rule out the possibility of an intervention for fear of negative reactions from the artist’s fans.
This dynamic has been repeated since the end of the guardianship. It is noted that “many choose to avoid public criticism so as not to lose their connection” with the singer.
Others say that Spears’s daily life is completely normal. “She is not at all worried about how she acts; she thinks she is normal. She is very sweet and likes her freedom now. She is not crying at home, she is doing her thing,” another person close to her said.
However, most express genuine fear for her future. “This isn’t the Britney we know. It’s really scary.”
Since 2021, Britney Spears has shared provocative images, including knife dances and nude photos, reinforcing the climate of uncertainty around her.
