Britney Spears has found herself back in the spotlight after a viral video appeared to show her driving erratically in California. However, the pop star insists the woman in the footage wasn’t her. While Spears didn’t address the video directly, her recent post seemed to hint at the mounting speculation surrounding her driving.
Britney Spears claims it was a ‘lookalike’ in viral driving video
The “Toxic” singer, 43, took to Instagram on Saturday to address the viral clip, saying, “If anyone is wondering the lookalike was not me…,” Spears wrote alongside a graphic of Minnie Mouse hugging Daisy Duck. The statement came after Page Six released footage on Friday showing Spears swerving dangerously into multiple lanes after leaving Red-O restaurant in Thousand Oaks, California, late Thursday night. The video captured the Grammy-winning artist crossing the road’s divider, drifting into a bike lane, and performing a sharp, tire-screeching U-turn.
Spears shared another message expressing her frustration with how she’s portrayed in the media. “I don’t feel respected at all by the most unbelievably horrible things being said about me,” she wrote. The “Toxic” singer added that the constant negativity has left her feeling creatively drained, admitting she doesn’t feel “inspired or motivated AT ALL to show new art.” However, she still posted a throwback video of herself painting. In another post, Spears wore a pink bathing suit, keeping her comments turned off to avoid online criticism.
According to The Daily Mail, Spears’ family members are increasingly worried about her well-being, especially as her ex-husband Kevin Federline prepares to release his memoir, “You Thought You Knew.” The book reportedly includes claims about their marriage and Spears’ parenting, which have stirred public debate. “There’s a lot of concern,” a source told the outlet. “Everyone has always wanted the best for her, and she’s showing right now that she’s making bad choices.”
