Britney Spears recalls Colin Farrell memory as she twirls in negligee
Britney Spears twirled in a see-through negligee in her latest social media dance video. The 43-year-old singer appeared to be enjoying some mimosas as she recalled a memorable evening with actor Colin Farrell. 'Last time I wore an actual nightgown out was a La Perla nightgown at a premiere with Colin Farrell,' she wrote, adding: 'I wonder why conservatorship had me wear three layers of tights for 20 years hmmm ???' But Britney got one of the details wrong. When she attended the The Recruit premiere with Colin, now 48, in 2003, she actually wore a cream-toned pajama top, rather than a nightgown. In her 2023 memoir, The Woman In Me, Britney wrote: 'In the course of our fun time together, [Colin] took me to the premiere of a spy thriller he was in called The Recruit with Al Pacino.' Regarding her outfit, the Lucky singer said: 'I wore a pajama top. 'I thought it was a real shirt because it had miniature studs on it but I see the photos and I think, "Yeah, I definitely wore a full-blown pajama top to Colin Farrell's premiere."' The two stars were in the midst of a passionate but brief fling at the time. Explaining their ardor, the Billboard Music Award winner revealed: 'Brawl is the only word for it — we were all over each other, grappling so passionately it was like we were in a street fight.' Britney was under a court-ordered conservatorship for 13 years before being released in November 2021. She alleged her estranged father Jamie Spears, 72, would constantly call her 'fat' and kept her on a strict diet of 'chicken and canned vegetables' for almost two years. Regarding why she incorporates her hair into her wild online videos she explained that in her memoir as well. 'As performers, we girls have our hair,' she explained. 'That's the real thing guys want to see. They love to see the long hair move. They want you to thrash it. If your hair's moving, they can believe you're having a good time.' 'In the most demoralizing moments of my Las Vegas residency, I wore tight wigs, and I'd dance in a way where I wouldn't move a hair on my head,' she said, explaining why she was rebelling. 'Everyone who was making money off me wanted me to move my hair, and I knew it -so I did everything but that.'

Netflix Announces Cancellation of Four Shows
While Netflix boasts a wide array of original shows, the reality is that not all of them can survive at the same time, leaving the stream service's executives to make some tough decisions. Unfortunately, those decisions led to the cancellation of four shows ahead of the 2025-26 season. According to DirectTV, Netflix has announced that four shows will not be renewed for another season, with "The Empress" and "The Sandman" ending with their upcoming seasons, while "Territory" and "The Recruit" have been canceled and will not get a final season. "The Empress" is a German historical drama television series based on the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria. It was Netflix's second-most watched series worldwide for two weeks and the seventh most popular non-English series of 2022, but it will not be resnewed past its third season, which is upcoming. "The Sandman" is an American fantasy drama television series based on the 1989-1996 DC comic book. While it was renewed for a second season, it will not be renewed after two seasons. "Territory" is an Australian neo-western drama, but it was canceled by Netflix this year after just one season. "The Recruit" is an American spy adventure television series that follows a CIA lawyer who becomes involved in massive international conflicts with dangerous parties after an asset tries to expose her relationship to the agency. Obviously, some fans will not be excited to hear of these cancellations, but that's the unfortunate reality of the streaming industry – some series survive, others don't quite make it, even if they were beloved by some fans.
