Britney Spears recently took the social media world by storm with a surprising revelation about her past. She claimed a long-forgotten romantic encounter with Ben Affleck.
Britney has previously shared some brutal revelations about Justin Timberlake.
And it seems people are not too happy about what she’s had to say.
So much so, that Timberlake was forced to turn off his Instagram comments!
Recently, people have been feeling pretty concerned about the star.
Who has had a lot to deal with in the past few years.
After this news, fans remain worried about Britney.
Especially in light of Justin’s response.
Scroll on for the full story.
Now, Britney Spears shot to fame back in 1998.
With songs such as Oops, I did it again and Slave 4 U, Britney quickly became one the most popular pop stars at the time as she gained fans around the world.
But, over the years, Britney’s mental health dramatically deteriorated as the pressures of the spotlight took a toll.
And eventually, in 2007, Britney suffered a highly public breakdown.
One of the results of Britney’s breakdown was that she was put under conservatorship.
Britney’s dad, Jamie Spears, was made the permanent conservator of his daughter’s affairs and co-conservator of her estate in 2008 meaning he could control every aspect of her life.
But, in recent years, following Britney’s cryptic posts on social media, the #FreeBritney movement to free her for the conservatorship was plunged into the spotlight.
And eventually, as people protested for Britney to be able to control her life, so did the star.
Britney began a fight to regain control of her own life back in 2020.
It took a long time, with a lot of knockbacks as things initially did not go her way…
But, after thirteen years, on November 13, 2021, Britney was freed from her conservatorship as it was terminated with immediate effect.
It was a day that people, including the singer, rejoiced.
But in a twisting turn of events, Britney’s close pal, Jennifer Lopez, has lent her friend a helping hand through this whole ordeal.
That’s what friends are for, right?
In Britney’s original post, which featured a home video of the pop star, she shared some words of wisdom she once heard from J-Lo.
And trust us, it’s something you don’t want to miss!
“As Jennifer Lopez once said ‘You look right down that camera and tell every little girl in the world to get loud and never ever back down to giving light to injustice.
“I’m here to share that freedom is a state of mind!” Britney wrote on Instagram, along with the video.
“In a world where you have the right to use your feet…heart… mouth… eyes…and body…to express yourself however you may !!! Declaration of INDEPENDENCE … for equality and to be equal !!!” she added.
Recently it’s J-Lo’s support for her fellow pop star that has gotten all the attention.
On August 13, the ‘Let’s Get Loud’ singer reposted a photo on her Instagram stories of Britney and herself posing together at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.
According to reports, she was in favor of her close pal.
“Stay strong,” J-Lo wrote in support of Britney.
And with the outpouring support of J-Lo, another singer has backed Britney, this time leaving no stone unturned to slam her ex-husband…
Singer Nicki Minaj has also voiced her opinion on the Kevin-Britney controversy…
Nicki didn’t hold back during her Amp Livestream on August 16 and called Kevin a “clown” after he recently criticized Britney’s parenting.
“How dare you. How dare you encourage this woman’s children to be a part of your nonsense,” she said.
“When they look back, they’re gonna say, ‘Why, why, why did we do this?’ They’re kids. They don’t know how detrimental this is,” Nicki added.
“Do you understand what kind of a clown you have to be to be a whole, grown f**king man, and as soon as you see somebody happy and getting married and moving on and being free and feeling good in their own skin, to do the very thing that you know is going to attempt to break them down?
“Only cowards use the media against a famous person who they once loved, they procreated with, they’re being taken care of by…. using the person’s fame as this constant ‘gotcha’ moment,” she continued.
The Queen of Rap then went ahead and said she hopes karma will come for Kevin and added that she doesn’t believe anyone will feel sorry for him
Nicki also revealed that she has seen Britney’s devotion to her kids.
“She loves her kids more than life itself,” confessed Nicki.
Nicki then concluded by telling Kevin to “leave [Britney] the f**k alone.”
Sadly, it doesn’t look like Kevin got the memo, as he’s continued to speak out against his ex-wife…
He talked about his difficult role as a father during their marriage.
Kevin appeared on 60 Minutes Australia to give his side of the story.
In a short clip of the interview, Kevin says: “I was mortified for her. I really was. I still feel bad,” referring to her conservatorship.
He later addressed Britney’s relationship with their sons at the time, saying: “The boys, the boys, the boys, I had to worry about them. I couldn’t get involved.”
Adding: “It’s been a few months since they’ve seen her.”
But Federline wasn’t the only one to appear in the interview…
Their son, Jayden also spoke out about his upbringing and his mother’s mental health.
“I think Mom has struggled giving us both attention and showing us equal love & I don’t think she showed enough to Preston and I feel really bad for that,” he began.
“We’ve both been through so much pressure in the past that this is our safe place now, to process all the emotional trauma we’ve been through to heal, heal our mental state.”
Jayden, who spoke for himself and his older brother, talked about the difficulty of having a mom constantly in the spotlight but said he thinks their relationship with their mother is fixable.
“It’s just going to take a lot of time and effort,” he said, according to Daphne Barak’s account in the Daily Mail. “I just want her to get better mentally. When she gets better I really want to see her again.”
He addressed Britney directly, sharing how much he loves her.
“I love you a lot, I hope for the best for you,” Jayden said in an appeal to his mom. “Maybe one day we can sit down like this and talk again.”
Since hearing his comments, Britney spoke out, writing in an Instagram post: “[I]t deeply saddens me to know [Jayden’s] outcry of saying I wasn’t up to his expectations of a mother … and maybe one day we can meet face to face and talk about this openly !!!!”
She also hit back at some of his comments: “As for my mental health … my dear child understand you must learn to pick up a book and read one before you resort to even thinking about my intellect sweetheart !!!”
Britney also took offense to Jayden’s comments defending her father, claiming: “He was just trying to be a father.”
She wrote: “Psss if you can honestly sit back and say with your sensible brilliant mind what memaw and paw paw did to me was fine and call them not bad people … then yes I have failed as a mother and hopefully, that’s a chat for you and your father to sit face to face and try to learn WHAT’S GOOD.”
You can watch part of the interview here.
Britney went on a long rant on social media…
Mostly in response to Jayden publicly talking about her challenges as a mom.
She said she wonders if her son is worried that he won’t be getting any more money from her in a few years’ time, once he turns eighteen.
“Do you guys want me to get better so I can continue to give your dad $40,000 a month? Or is the reason behind you guys deciding to be hateful because it’s actually over in two years, and you don’t get anything?” Britney said.
Britney also addressed her relationship with her son, who she hasn’t seen in months.
She claimed that they ignored her when they were together in the past and that they never felt she was a good enough mother if she didn’t give them mountain-size gifts.
Britney also said that Jayden sounded just like her dad, Jamie Spears, in the interview…
And accused her son of secretly loving to look at her like something is wrong with her, the same thing she says the rest of her family is guilty of.
And in response to the unequal love and attention claims Jayden made…
She said Preston would sleep the whole time when she had her sons over, while Jayden would play the piano.
The star also hit out at her estranged father once again following comments her sons made about their grandfather.
“Honestly, my dad needs to be in jail for the rest of his life. But like I said, God would not allow that to happen to me if a God existed,” she said.
“I don’t believe in God anymore because of the way my children and my family have treated me. There is nothing to believe anymore. I’m an atheist y’all,” Britney stated.
She also claimed that her family “turned their back” on her in her darkest moment.
Britney has also revealed she feels she has “no purpose anymore” due to the rift between her and her sons.
In recordings released on Twitter, Britney shares that she “used to have my kids at one point, way more than Kevin,” but added that nobody remembers because “they always focus on the negative,” talking about her custody battle during her conservatorship.
“From when they were six to nine years old, I had them 70% of the time. Since they’ve been gone, I’ve honestly felt like a huge part of me has died,” she said.
Sharing more about the split from her boys, she said: “And then all of a sudden they were gone and I was like, ‘Did my heart just stop beating?’ And honestly, I don’t understand how it’s so easy for them just to cut me off like that.”
Britney also addressed comments made by Jayden to filmmaker Daphne Barak recently, when he said: “It’s almost like she has to post something on Instagram to get some attention,” discussing her frequent Instagram use.
Britney responded in her now-deleted audio recordings: “I do want to be heard and I’m angry, and I kind of subconsciously want to offend people because I’ve been so (expletive) offended,” Spears said. “But I’m afraid to inform you guys I’m not willing to see you until I feel valued.”
Despite this, she added that she loves her boys “more than anything” and apologized if she “ever hurt them in any way.”

Now, Britney has yet another person to worry about: Justin Timberlake
Though their breakup was decades ago, their relationship has come up a lot recently following the release of Spears’ memoir.
This week, Timberlake performed in New York City, where he surprised fans with his intro to “Cry Me A River,” the song he famously wrote about his breakup with Britney.
Before going into the song, Justin said he’d like to take the time to apologize to
“absolutely f***ing nobody.”
That struck a nerve with Britney’s fans
And it seems to have struck a nerve with Britney, too.
She took to Instagram to respond, posting a photo of a basketball hoop with the moon in the background that looks like a ball going through it.
“Someone told me someone was talking s*** about me on the streets !!!” she began in her caption.
“Do you want to bring it to the court or will you go home crying to your mom like you did last time???” her caption continued.
Spears ended her caption with: “I’m not sorry!!!”
While fans can’t get enough of her clapback, other recent news has fans once again concerned for the star.
Britney is no stranger to a bizarre Instagram post…
She captioned the post: “A bright one … easy does it !!!
“Thank you, childhood friend, I found my ball … don’t underestimate the power of purity !!!
“I see right through it all … it has liquid and is wet … it’s playful and has mass !!!
“I changed my name to River Red !!!
“Yet the fire is where it illuminates … to stare at it and jump right in with no fear at all !!!!
“S**t. Now I have to find my FORK!!!””
Take a look at the post here.
But now, Britney has left fans concerned again.
As TMZ has reported she’s split from her husband Sam Asghari.
A source has said “It’s only a matter of time before Sam files for divorce.”
This follows an allegedly rocky period of the relationship with the pair fighting often.
A source has told Page Six that Sam is “attempting to negotiate concessions beyond his prenup and threatening to go public with extraordinarily embarrassing information about Britney unless he gets paid.”
Adding: “So that’s what Sam is focused on.”
Sam has also claimed that Britney “hooked up with at least one of the male staff members” who worked in her home, TMZ reports.
Their “sources say he claims there’s footage of Britney and the staffer together in a compromising position.”
Sam has also alleged Brtiney physically attacked him over the course of their relationship.
TMZ has exclusively shared images of Sam with bruises and even a black eye.
Sam has publicly defended Brit’s somewhat erratic behaviour, but apparently, behind closed doors he was over it.
However, it appears a prenup will protect Britney’s wealth in the event of divorce.
TMZ reports Sam gets no payout.
He is also ineligible for spousal support following the split.
What do you think of the agreement?
And now, Britney has broken her social media silence.
With rather bizarre Instagram posts.
She shared an Instagram story of herself topless and rolling around in bed.
She kicked her legs in the air and looked joyful.
Brit later posted another story showing her dancing with an unknown man licking her leg.
Later in the video, a group of topless men lift Brit in the air during a sexually charged ‘divorce party.’
“What does a b**** like me do?! I put my green dress on and show up at my friends! I invited my fav boys over and played all night!” she captioned the video.
You can see the strange posts here.
She then concerned her fans concerned once more.
She shared and then deleted a video all about her conservatorship!
The singer posted a 22-minute clip on Sunday, which is now unavaliable.
She said: “For some reason, I started to get a spark back. I started making Glory, and I got the fire back in my eyes.”
“I started getting more confidence, and with confidence, people were like ‘What’s going on now, she’s speaking up a little more.'”
“I think with confidence comes enlightenment, which makes you think better. That’s the last thing they wanted.”
“I had to just play this role, that everything was OK all the time. I knew they could hurt me.”
“The extent of my madness was playing chase with paparazzi, which is still to this day one of the most fun things I ever did about being famous.”
“I didn’t want to ever go there. I remember calling my dad on the phone crying, and he said ‘You have to listen to the doctors. I can’t help you now.’”
“How did they get away with it, and what the f**k did I do to deserve that?”
Britney concluded: “If you’re a weird, introvert oddball like me, who feels alone a lot of the time, and you needed to hear a story like mine today to know that you’re not alone, know this: my life has been far from easy, and you’re not alone.”
Another worrying Instagram post soon followed.
She posted a video dancing with two large knives.
Writing in the caption: “I started playing in the kitchen with knives today!!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives !!! Halloween is soon!!!”
Fans also noticed that she had a bandage around her arm.
Leading some to worry she had cut herself during her dance routine.
One fan wrote: “I’m sorry but she does not act like she is well.”
You can see the vid right here …
TMZ then reported that the police dropped in on Britney at home.
TMZ has reported they performed a welfare check out of “an abundance of caution.”
Britney then posted another video with a bandage – this time on her finger.
One fan wrote: “That knife must’ve been sharp with that bandage on your finger.”
Brit has since deleted the post, but a fan uploaded it to TikTok.
You can watch it right here …
But now, it’s a revelation from Brit’s upcoming memoir that has everybody talking.
“The Woman in Me” comes out on October 24.
And in it, sources have revealed to TMZ that Britney had been pregnant with Justin Timberlake’s child.
However, the pair agreed to get an abortion.
Britney writes, “I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated.”
Justin has responded to her claims …
A source told Entertainment Tonight that Justin “has been focusing on his own family and trying not to concern himself with Britney’s memoir.”
“In recent years, Justin has tried to be supportive of Britney from a distance. They dated so long ago, but he still has respect for her. Justin and Jessica just want everyone to grow and evolve instead of continuing to bring up the past.”
But that’s not the only shocking revelation, Britney also shared that she cheated on Justin.
The star revealed she got close to Wade Robson, a dancer and choreographer.
She wrote in her book that the pair danced together and kissed at a bar, while she was still dating Justin.
She explained that Justin managed to move past the infidelity, but it wasn’t long after they parted ways.
And it seems Justin was the one to end things.
After dating for three years, Justin allegedly broke up with her over text.
Understandably, this left her ‘devastated.’
She even thought about quitting music altogether.
And now, it’s been revealed what he texted her…
It all went down while Britney was working on the ‘Overprotected: The Darkchild Remix’ music video in Los Angeles.
According to Page Six, Director Chris Applebaum found Britney crying over the text from Timberlake.
It simply read: “It’s over!!!”
Brutal!
And it seems as though Justin is not happy about Britney spilling all the tea …
A source told the Daily Mail: “Britney’s book coming out with all the revelations coming from it has not been the best for his anniversary celebrations.”
“Having it in the zeitgeist hasn’t been a topic of constant conversation but Justin and Jessica have definitely talked about it.”
“And to have to think of all of that during a time when they should celebrate their love for each other hasn’t been the most satisfying of days lately, it has been a bit stressful.”
Another source told US Weekly: “Justin thought Britney might talk about their ups and downs in more general terms — not air out their very personal, dirty laundry,” says one source. “He’s disappointed she went this route decades after they split up.”
“Justin regrets that he hurt Britney. He was young,” says a second source. “He thinks Britney has every right to tell her story and hopes they can move on now.”
However, it seems as though the internet is siding with Britney.
As Timberlake has been forced to turn off his Instagram comments to avoid the backlash!
A source confirmed to Page Six that this was because of the “hateful, disgusting things people were saying” on his page.

Britney Spears’ Social Media Reveal: A Forgotten Tryst with Ben Affleck?
It all started with a cryptic post on Instagram.
An Instagram Post that Caused a Stir
Britney shared a monochromatic throwback picture of herself with Ben Affleck and songwriter Diane Warren. However, it was the caption that got everyone talking.
Britney, in her casual, conversational tone, hinted at a past romantic encounter with Affleck, leaving her fans and followers in a frenzy of speculation.
“Cool pic of me and Ben Affleck and Diane Warren years ago!!! He’s such an amazing actor. Did I fail to mention I made out with Ben that night… I honestly forgot … d— that’s crazy !!!” wrote Britney, sending her fans into a whirlpool of curiosity and conjecture.
The Mysterious Timeframe
The timeframe of this alleged romantic interlude remains unclear. Britney’s post suggests the photo was taken years ago, but she did not specify when.
The picture showed Affleck with a certain style of facial hair, hinting that it could have been around the summer of 1999.
This was a time when Affleck, fresh off his Oscar win for Good Will Hunting, was on the rise in Hollywood.
Coincidentally, it was also the same year Britney’s hit single “…Baby One More Time” catapulted her to stardom.
The Affleck-Spears Rumor Mill
While the Instagram post was the first official acknowledgment from Britney, rumors of a possible fling between her and Affleck have been circulating for decades.
Gossip columns from the early 2000s have previously reported on a possible romantic connection between the two, hinting at a brief tryst.
One such rumor suggested that Britney and Affleck were spotted sharing an intimate moment at a Hollywood nightclub in 2000.
The timeline is intriguing because, at that time, Britney was reportedly dating Justin Timberlake.
The Justin Timberlake Factor
The alleged encounter with Affleck apparently happened around the same time Britney was involved with Timberlake.
Britney and Timberlake were a popular couple, dating from 1999 to 2002.
Britney’s memoir, The Woman in Me, released in October 2023, revealed details about her relationship with Timberlake, including her confession about an instance of infidelity.
However, the book did not mention any romantic escapade with Affleck.
Instead, it focused on her momentary indiscretion with choreographer Wade Robson.
Despite this one-off incident, Britney maintained that she was generally faithful to Timberlake during their relationship.
The Jennifer Lopez Angle
The timeline of the rumored Britney-Affleck liaison becomes more intriguing when considering Ben Affleck’s romantic history.
Affleck got engaged to Jennifer Lopez in November 2002, shortly after the supposed encounter with Britney.
However, their engagement was called off in January 2004.
The Aftermath: A Deleted Post and Silence
Interestingly, the revealing Instagram post was later deleted by Britney, and there has been no comment from Affleck’s side.
Despite the deletion, the post had already made waves, adding another layer to the multi-faceted personal life of Britney Spears.
