Britney Spears makes rare comment on fling with Colin Farrell
'all over each other |
The pair dated after her public split from Justin Timberlake.
Britney Spears has made a rare comment about her fling with Irish actor Colin Farrell.
The singer referenced their brief romance in a video caption posted to Instagram.
"Last time I wore an actual nightgown out was a La Perla nightgown at a premiere with Colin Farrell,' she wrote beneath a video showing the 43-year-old as she posed in a barely-there nightie.
"I wonder why conservatorship had me wear three layers of tights for 20 years hmmm,' she added.
The pop princess dated the 48-year-old Dubliner in the early 2000s following her high-profile split from Justin Timberlake.
In her memoir, The Woman in Me, she said she was set up with Farrell through a 'club promoter friend.'
They pair met on the set of a film, and went on to have 'a two-week brawl.'
'Brawl is the only word for it,' she said, adding: 'we were all over each other, grappling so passionately it was like we were in a street fight.'
She appeared alongside him at the premiere of his 2003 film The Recruit, but admitted she was not over her ex.
'As I had before when I'd felt too attached to a man, I tried to convince myself in every way that it was not a big deal, that we were just having fun, that in this case, I was vulnerable because I wasn't over Justin yet.'
Speaking to the press at the premiere, Colin played down his relationship with Spears, saying they were 'just friends.'
"We're not dating,' he said.
"She's a sweet, sweet girl. There's nothing going on — just mates.'

The following year she wed Jason Alexander in Las Vegas before annulling their vows just 55 hours later.
Later that year she wed her second husband, Kevin Federline, and welcomed two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden.
The pair divorced after three years, following which Britney spent several years in a custody battle which was complicated by her controversial conservatorship.
The conservatorship gave others, including her estranged father, Jamie Spears, the right to make basic decisions about her finances, career and personal life.
