Britney Spears apologises for smoking on plane
The 43-year-old pop star has taken to social media to issue an apology, after she was recently reported to have smoked a cigarette and drank alcohol while on an plane.
Britney wrote on Instagram: "It's actually incredibly funny. Some planes I've been on you can't smoke mostly, but this one was different because the drinkholders were on the outside of the seat.
"Confession: It was my first time drinking VODKA!!! I swear I felt so SMART!!! [laughing emojis] I was like, 'Wow what the heck is in there.' I felt so clear and smart, and said, 'I want a cigarette so bad!!!'
"My friend put it in my mouth and lit... it up for me so I was like OH SO THIS IS A PLANE WHERE YOU CAN SMOKE !!! I do so apologize to anyone I offended but the flight attendants always make sure I'm way at the back of plane anyways!!! (sic)"
Britney subsequently complained about the behaviour of one particular flight attendant.
The pop star - who was flying from Cabo San Lucas in Mexico to Los Angeles - described the flight attendant's conduct as "weird".
Britney explained: "The flight attendant called officials because I smoked a cigarette !!! And embarrass me which jeez I thought was kinda much but she didn't like me the moment I got on plane !!!
"Nobody was on the plane for first 20 minutes and she wouldn't let me get out of my seat I wanted to stand up !!! She acted so weird about making sure I sat down and it was weird !!! I didn't like the way she put the seatbelt on me and invaded my space !!! (sic)"
Meanwhile, Britney previously admitted that she burned off her eyebrows and eyelashes after attempting to turn on the fireplace in her bedroom.
The pop singer shared via social media in 2024: "Six months ago something happened that was really, really dangerous. I was in my room and I turned the fire on and all of a sudden it blew up in my face."

Britney Spears sparks concern with video dancing in messy house
Britney Spears has sparked concern from fans after showing her messy house on social media. The Toxic hitmaker, 43, has shared another video of herself dancing in her home, but some fans noticed what appeared to be dog poo on the floor behind her, along with other clutter. In the video shared on Monday (18.08.25), she can be heard since her own version of Prince song Kiss as she dances in her pyjamas, which were made up for a brown polka dot bralette and mini white shorts. A puppy can be seen in the background, and at one point she sings: "I don't know who I am, oh, oh." In the caption, she quipped: 'I would say, Julia Roberts singing Prince's 'Kiss' off key a touch, but I sounded really good behind the lens lol!!! "PSS Wise a**es, I do know who I am !!! "I have eight different languages written on my neck... these are my pjs, but I put these boots on to play with lighting ... not the most elegant look but hey!!! (sic)" In another video, Britney revealed she was in the middle of cleaning her house but took a quick break. She wrote: "Messing around with lighting and cleaning my house like no tomorrow,' the star wrote in the caption." Some people are concerned by the video, which had comments disabled but was shared by a fan on X. Echoing another user, a fan asked: "Is that dog poop on the floor?!" In the comments on TMZ, one reader simply wrote: "Poor thing." Another person suggested she "needs help", while a third said: "You can't help but feel sorry for her." In June, Britney's Instagram account - which has become her sole method of communicating with fans after the conservatorship that had been governed by her immediate family was terminated in November 2021 - was deactivated after a rant about two of her former partners. Days earlier, the Oops! I Did It Again singer posted a scathing attack on two of the men she dated in the past. Britney was initially married to childhood friend Jason Alexander for a period of 55 hours in 2004 and was then married to Kevin Federline from 2004 until 2007 but was then married to Sam Asghari from 2022 until 2024. Without naming anyone, she wrote: "I dated two f****** complete a**holes. 'I realized I loved their dogs more than them and I think it's because their dogs bowed to me every time I entered the room!!!" The Baby One More Time hitmaker - who has sons Sean, 19, and Jayden, 18, with her second husband - did not name either of the men in question but branded them as "cruel humans" who failed to "acknowledge" her during their time together. She added: "Now the guys were of course cruel humans that never even acknowledged and never held my hand in the car for 6 years !!! I choose animals over people anyday !!! "I'm so turned off by humanity and the way people have literally … I have no words !!!"

Britney Spears' ex-husband Sam Asghari savagely roasts Kevin Federline over new tell-all book
Britney Spears' ex-husband Sam Asghari took a vicious swipe at Kevin Federline over his upcoming tell-all book, calling the dad of six a 'professional father'. In a clip shared by TMZ on Saturday, a photographer asked the former personal trainer what he thought of Federline's upcoming book, which will 'detail his marriage with Britney.' 'Well, he was a professional father,' he replied while walking outside West Hollywood hotspot The Abbey on Saturday, cheekily adding that the memoir 'would be the first book that'll tell you how to be a professional father'. Federline — who was married to Spears, 43, from 2004 to 2007 — announced his upcoming memoir, You Thought You Knew, earlier this month. Per The Daily Mail, the former back-up dancer — who shares sons Sean Preston, 19, and Jayden James, 18, with Spears — wrote in a press release that the book will uncover personal details about their 'highly publicised marriage'. 'This book is extremely intimate and transparent,' Federline wrote in the release. 'I achieved my biggest dreams, dealt with crushing heartbreak and endured constant ridicule, all while becoming the father my children needed as they experienced non-stop emotional turbulence.' The book is set for release on October 21 in the US. Federline famously took custody of their sons after the marriage ended, and collected $US20,000 ($30,678) a month in child support from the pop princess until November 2024 — when both sons were past the age of 18. Following the ill-fated union, which saw Spears endure a highly publicised meltdown amid the end of her marriage, Federline went on to marry Victoria Prince, with whom he shares two daughters. He also shares two grown children with ex-girlfriend Shar Jackson. Spears was briefly married to childhood friend Jason Alexander in 2004, though the union was quickly annulled. Years after her split from Federline, she went on to date Asghari after filming her Slumber Party music video with him. In May 2022, following their 2021 engagement, the former couple endured a miscarriage. 'It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that we have lost our miracle baby early in the pregnancy,' they said in a joint statement at the time. 'This is a devastating time for any parent. Perhaps we should have waited to announce until we were further along. However we were overly excited to share the good news.' Spears went on to marry Asghari in a star-studded ceremony in June 2022, only to have it end in divorce in 2024. Asghari, 31, who is now dating Brooke Irvine, appears to have residual loyalty for his famous ex-wife. The Traitors personality told Page Six in January that he wishes his ex-wife 'the best,' despite their failed marriage. 'I think that the number one factor of a partner is to be there for one another, no matter what,' he added.

Jade Thirlwall doesn't think X Factor should have let her compete
Jade Thirlwall doesn't think she should have been allowed to compete on The X Factor because of her mental health. The former Little Mix singer had battled anorexia from the age of 13 and her audition for the reality show in 2011 came just a few months after she had been discharged from hospital, and not only does she think a "proper" assessment by producers would have found her unsuitable for the demands of the programme, she believes there were other finalists who should also have been rejected. She told The Guardian newspaper: 'In retrospect, if the show had done a proper mental health assessment, then they wouldn't have let me on. [The psych test] was very surface. "Judging by some of the people in that X Factor house, it wasn't done properly. Bless them, through no fault of their own, some of those people were mentally unwell. "All of the female contestants slept in the same bedroom, and one of them would get up, put all her wigs out and start doing a Britney Spears performance at three in the morning. Or you'd be woken up by the sound of her using her vibrator in the middle of the night. "We'd have a meeting with lawyers and someone who was obviously not in the best headspace would be picking their feet and eating it in front of everyone. It was like, 'Is this the music industry?' ' The Angel of My Dreams hitmaker didn't realise until later that her eating disorder had continued during her time with Little Mix. She said: 'I didn't think it at the time, but when I look back at photos of periods when I was quite unhappy, I think, wow, girlie, you were very, very thin. The pattern was there. Historically, if I've ever felt that something is out of my control, then restricting food has been a means of controlling my life in a very toxic way. 'In summer 2017 I was living in a flat in east London and having really bad night terrors. I'd have such disturbing nightmares – things that are too horrific to say, dreams where I'd be harming myself – that I'd force myself to stay awake by drinking coffee and playing loud music. I'd be going to perform at outdoor concerts having not slept for days.' And even now, Jade has a "daily battle" with convincing herself she doesn't need weight-loss jabs amid being trolled online about her size. She said: 'I have a daily battle with myself not to go on Ozempic. 'I don't judge people that do, but because I have a history of eating disorders, I don't know where taking something like that would end for me.'
