Many of us have been telling you this since last summer, but some of you seem determined to set yourselves up for disappointment

[Dublingin]

This was a great read. I love when she opens up like this.

By “podcast” does she mean listening to podcasts instead of going to therapy? Or actually producing her own podcast? I was a bit confused there.

Also.. 10 year break.. she’s probably not serious. But if she is, and considering she’s been on break since 2019, then we still have 7 years until B10!

[Oprah Winfrey.]

I’m so proud of her, and that’s right Britney call out the MEDIA! You weren’t a bad mother at all, you looked and dressed like a new mother does! Most moms Ik aren’t glammed up if they have 2 babies!!!! Shows she cared more about her kids then her own appearance, way better than her own mother who only cares about her appearance!!!

also something be don’t commend is her resilience against the paparazzi! She was still living her life as if they weren’t there! Imagine how hard that is, just watching old pap videos of her I just know someone would’ve got tan over by my car!

[GirlOnTheMoon]

I love how she finds pleasures in the simplest things in life...Also, it's very telling that stuff that is extremely normal to us (like choosing our own makeup) she was never able to do until now. I am so proud of her and I hope she continues to do whatever makes her happy at the moment. 

[Luminous]

Meanwhile, we waiting for 2026! 

But i'm happy for her, she is finally rediscovering herself, this pregnancy will do her more than good, and surely if she returns to music, she will come back even better than without it.

Take all the time you need and not a minute less! We will be here when you are ready

10 years break 

A tell all podcast 

More eyeshadow needed 

 

[Cqleb]

Wow, Ready for that Britney podcast 🎙🙏 

[Dreamer26]

It seems she is done for good with her music career and who can blame her.  she won't find free time to focus music.  she couldn't spend enough time with her first 2 child. Cuz they took it from her that time. This time she will be with her baby all the time i think. So we have to accept bitter truth. 

[Deanna Winchester]

Once again, I’m so proud of Britney’s resilience and strength. Because of her resilience her music and character helped me when I want to give up too. She is the best. I wish her the best. Yay! For 10 year break. Keep on being your unique self, Britney. I keep cheering you on. Always. 💜

This was actually really insightful to read! Love hearing her experiences and opinions ,especially about her past, in her own voice.

Watching Brit for the next decade is going to be really interesting. I hope she has a healthy baby and snatches back with a crazy body ,ready to make whatever kind of music she wants to. I know she can do it if she's wants to. Life doesn't stop after kids or after your 20s

[Grace Kelly]

Becoming a mother for the first time is terrifying under the best of circumstances. I had a lovely husband who sat up with me all night whilst I was feeding my first born and a good support system of friends and family. She had KFed, the paparazzi sat outside and a toxic controlling family. I think that she realizes this now, that a person can only take so much and she needed empathy and support for any struggles, not controlling behavior and ridicule. I so hope she has a wonderful experience this time with people around her who want to support her, not exploit her. That is what she deserves and that is what she should get. God bless her.

Incase it is deleted (i'll add to the OP too):

[Watch Me Work It]

I love how wholesome this is and then she just finishes with "s** is great when you're pregnant!"

I love her honesty in these posts. I wish her the happiest pregnancy

I've never been a makeup junky I will confess ... getting tons of lipsticks from different companies ... well I never got a thrill out of that !!! But I will be honest and say ... that has changed !!! I never thought I would say this but I am a makeup junkie !!! From 1-10 ... I'm probably a 5 makeup junkie hair and makeup ... waiting and waiting in those dressing rooms with my dad and the weirdest woman ever in every ******* dressing room I was in for 14 years ... I look back now and I'm like "how did I do that ???" Honestly just the thought of being in the same building as them let alone the same room makes the hair on my arms stand up !!! They've ruined the thrill of the business 100000% !!! Let's make it a 10 year break ... with a baby on the way my thought this morning was "I'm so scared to make a mistake ... Will I be thoughtful enough ??? Will I be instinctive enough ???" My mom and I always butted heads ... she was a mindful mother which that's all there is in LA ... If anyone was sick ... she would talk on the phone with a doctor for 40 minutes before using her own brain ... but let's be MINDFUL and talk about it !!! Now ME ... I always got judged and was told I was doing the wrong thing ... Yet when I was 8 years old and had no lie a 104.3 fever ... I was in my brother's bunk bed and wasn't moving well ... My mom came in there only 1 time and I knocked the fever myself !!! In Los Angeles it's about the children but at the time I was growing up ... it was all about respecting your parents ... I washed my mother's back everyday of my life when she asked for ice water so I brought it to her in seconds !!! Jesus Christ how things have changed !!! The generation today doesn't even acknowledge others or say hi with a smile because they are always looking down on their phones !!! I can't even tell you ow many times I did shows where young girls literally had their backs turned around looking at their phones ... whatever that's how it is now ... another example of instinct vs. mindfulness ... Jayden had an extremely high fever one time ... my heart went into my stomach because he had never been this hot before !!! His little eyes were so lazy ... do you think I called a doctor ??? He was 9 and I picked him up like a baby and brought him all the way upstairs to my room and put his little body in the tub lukewarm ... not too cold ... not too hot ... he was still hot so I got a cold compress and put on his head and gave him a fever reducer ... I took him out of the tub and he had chills !!! "Chills ... Mamma I'm too cold..." I put a heating pad at his feet and kept a wet compress on his head ... I let him lay there for 20 minutes and then I repeated it ... his fever went down the second time I bathed him !!! I tried to put crackers or anything in his system but he didn't want it ... so I slept with him that night and when he woke up ... he was eating pancakes like nothing happened !!! God knows I'm no saint but the media destroyed me when I first became a mother ... My first record came out when I was 16 and I got pregnant at 24 ... I thought about it last night ... I was a baby raising 2 babies with 17 cars outside my house !!! I didn't know how to play the game ... I didn't even know how to dress or fix my hair !!! I was clueless and I wasn't the brightest bulb on the tree either !!! I know that's no excuse but it is what it is ... I do know from the outside and by what was said in the news people were like "WTF is going on with her ???" The media has always been EXTREMELY rude to me ... so I woke up this morning saying to myseld "do I need to do a podcast during this pregnancy instead of therapy ???" And I mean it !!! Is my instinct just as it was when I helped Jayden ??? It's instinct !!! Something to declare all these crazy mixed emotions and hormones ... I don't want to be an angry pregnant person eating donuts every morning ... then I thought about it ... It's going to be ok !!! Just be me and stop trying so hard !!! So I reeled it in came back to reality and realized becoming a makeup junkie isn't so bad !!! It's the little things in finding myself that I've honestly missed for the last 14 years !!! It's time for me to indulge into thinking ... books ... makeup ... classic movies ... great conversation ... and the best s** ever !!! s** is great when you're pregnant It's going to be ok and now that @ArianaGrande sent me this unbelievable packaging with her new makeup line @REMbeauty ... I believe my day is set !!! Yes I've put it on already and I'm not lying ... it's pretty awesome !!! The colors are not only subtle and cool but the way it lays on your face is like silk ... literally !!! Thank you Ariana for this amazing gift I needed eyeshadow !!! How did you know ??? God bless ...

Awwww I hope you’ll change your mind Britney and make some new music with people who just totally let you do your thing.

You wouldn’t have to tour or perform or do any promotional stuff or interviews. But we miss your music! Pop ain’t the same without ya
