Okay but Britney clearly is in control of what is posted. Her old team would never let her post the things she does now. Also most celebrities have people run their socials. Stop acting like it’s so odd. 

don't blame me, i'm just sharing a tweet that i saw

That's a job? She needs to find something actually productive to do with her life...

Speaking as a Music Industry Studies major:
 

Why do people see this as an issue? A celebrity would have SO many things to focus on if they tried to run literally everything in their lives, ESPECIALLY musicians. The fact that she is able to do Instagram videos is actually impressive. There is no issue with her having someone run her social media for her; this is obviously as long as it is not in a malicious way such as with the conservatorship.

Cassey posts at the direction of Britney - not of anyone else; before in the conservatorship she was posting at the direction of Jamie.

it's simple.

Now we know that her "apology" wasn't from Britney

Do you mean 10000000x reposted and deleted @Helicopterney videos?

Yes, because she's too busy recording B10 and planning her next world tour

The reason why people get kind of „mad“ when they hear that another person is in charge of a social media account is because social media accounts have the purpose to create „intimacy“. Even though it‘s mostly used as a promotional tool, the intimacy is still an underlying thing. As a follower you have a feeling of a bigger deeper connection = parasocial relationship. Of course it‘s just an illusion, but people want to live in that illusion, they don‘t want to know who is in charge, as long as it looks like the artists themselves are doing all the work. Posts don‘t feel as authentic, real and personal anymore, if people know for a fact that they are being posted by other people. At the end of the day nobody really knows whats going on, but honestly it‘s really interesting to see how different celebrity social media accounts can be 

 

I have a degree (media studies) too

No you are absolutely correct, and this is part of why when people do have their media run by others they should never reveal it. I think the problem here is that Britney was in a (mostly) impossible situation. Her conservatorship happening caused everyone to question everything, and because of that mostly everything is being viewed through a lense of not being intimate, which is a shame.

I also think there's a difference between someone who is not tech savvy and/or can't be bothered so they hire someone to run their accounts while still giving final approval vs. someone who basically just outsources it. I think Britney probably records lots of videos and keeps them in her phone, then when she feels like posting, sends it to whoever runs her account with a caption and lets them post it.
