Britney Spears made several allegations against her family in a now-deleted video, and her mom Lynne has responded.

She claimed the matriarch of the family could have gotten a lawyer to help her, and instead, would either “hide” or say “we’re praying for her” but not actually offer any support. Last night, Britney Spears posted and then deleted a twenty-plus minute video in which she talked extensively about her personal life and the time she was under a conservatorship.

Britney Spears claims she's turned down 'lots of money' for Oprah Winfrey interview after her conservatorship was brought to an end.

I had to do what I was told. ‘And I went along with it because I was scared. I had to go to the gym… I was scared and fearful. I was told I was fat every day. I know now it was all premeditated. It was pure abuse. ‘It was all basically set up. I feel like it’s kind of silly. I don’t want any of it. “There were over 200 paparazzi outside my house videotaping me through a window of an ambulance, holding me down on a gurney. For me, it’s beyond a sit-down, proper interview.’

The singer spoke of how the conservatorship- which saw dad Jamie and others handed control of her life- began, and how she was treated during the years.

In a voice memo she posted Sunday before deleting it, Britney Spears shared disturbing details about her conservatorship. But Lynne Spears wants a word.

I love you so much, but this talk is for you and me only, eye to eye, in private.” “Britney, your whole life I have tried my best to support your dreams and wishes! And also, I have tried my best to help you out of hardships! I don’t ever remember getting a text from you !!!” “It was always like, ‘I don’t know what to say,’ ‘I just don’t want to say the wrong thing,’ ‘We’re praying for her,’” Britney said. Spears recalled missing out on parties and drinks with friends and having no access to her own money and car keys.

In a now-deleted audio clip, Britney Spears has claimed that her father, Jamie, threatened her with legal action if she didn't go to rehab.

The Grammy award winner went on to list numerous examples of the mistreatment she endured during her conservatorship, which ended in November 2021 after a lengthy court battle and the fan-led campaign, Free Britney. Hailing from the lovely city of Dublin, she mainly covers the Royal Family and the entertainment world, as well as the occasional health and wellness feature. "My heart felt like it was frozen," she said, recalling how she felt when she first arrived at the rehab facility. The 40-year-old said that she was forced to check into a 'militant' rehab facility in early 2019, where she had 'six gallons of blood' drawn every week. "It didn't make sense," she added. "I honestly still to this day don't know what really I did [to be sent to rehab]," she recalls.

24 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, which is something of a blend of the other two pop radio lists. Over on the Adult Contemporary radio chart, “Hold Me Closer” also lands the top debut, as it comes in at No. It is one of only two new arrivals on the tally, and it’s off to a fantastic start, as it is already inside the upper half of the list. Spears was credited on a cut by ALTEGO which melded Ginuwine’s “Pony” with her “Toxic,” and which climbed to No. In about a week, Billboard should announce where “Hold Me Closer” debuts on the Hot 100 and various other charts, but for the moment, it’s new to three radio-focused tallies, which operate on a different timetable than all other lists. On Friday (August 26), the pop superstar joined Elton John on the collaborative “Hold Me Closer,” which is already trending toward becoming a huge hit in a number of nations.

Andrew Watt, who produced the Britney Spears and Elton John duet "Hold Me Closer," explains how the song came together.

“She was so free and improv-ing over it,” he says. “She was like, ‘OK, where do I go to record?'” he says. John added new piano lines, including a bit of Rhodes — duetting with himself, half a century apart — and played around with the verses to “The One” with a new melody. Ultimately, Watt was excited to hear her falsetto on the song, which he likens to her singing on “Toxic,” and the way her voice harmonized with John’s. And it was really awesome to witness and see her be so powerful and crush it. “She wanted to speed up the record a little bit, and we did that. “She knew exactly what she wanted to do,” he says. “Elton reached out, and she loved the idea and wanted to do it.” The producer — who first met John in 2019 when working on the Ozzy Osbourne song “Ordinary Man,” which featured the two singers together — had originally picked “Tiny Dancer” “not only [because it’s] one of my favorite songs of all time but one of the greatest recordings/songs/ballads literally ever.” But he mostly wanted to listen to the original multi-tracks. John had met Spears at the 2014 Oscars viewing party for his AIDS foundation, and she had [tweeted the following year](https://twitter.com/britneyspears/status/657026334988697600) about her love of “Tiny Dancer.” “I was just like, ‘If this sucks, no one will ever have to hear it,'” he says, chuckling. On the song, John and Spears sing the verses to John’s 1992 single, “The One,” octaves apart, as an elastic guitar line stretches around the vocals and enfolds them. It’s a feel-good moment thanks to Spears’ trademark adlibs (a “baby” here and there) and melismatic melodies.

Elton John and Britney Spears have teamed up for the new single, Hold Me Closer. Read all about the new track and listen to it right here.

It is truly a moment to celebrate and Elton John surely is, as can be noted in his statement on his recent work with Britney, “She truly is an icon, one of the all-time great pop stars and she sounds amazing on this record. It is a style and method that was utilized on his highly successful Lockdown Sessions and it certainly seems that this new track is poised to achieve similar success. The new music follows in line with the aforementioned Cold Heart single, this time utilizing musical and lyrical elements of his 1971 hit song, Tiny Dancer, and adding a modern touch to the production.
