The pop star shared that initially, she decided against going on a vacation because of her sadness. Nevertheless, the water cheered her up.
“I didn’t think I was gonna go at all I was that sad... but immediately I saw the ocean, the small little hotel that looks like an apartment, and the breakfast table inside the pool !!!”
She continued to share “It saddens me people say mean things about me. I’m so damn sick of people saying they are concerned and if you don’t like the way I move, f**k off and don’t watch it !!!”
“After my week of fasting, I sat down to finally have my bacon cheeseburger with a bun that’s so high it looked like a pie and right when I cut it in half right down the middle I saw the white Swiss cheese and my mouth watered,” continued Spears, gushing about food.
She shared a carousel of random pictures and videos, including clips from her beach vacation, an image of her sitting on the sand without any clothing on, and a photo of her chest with a black bra.

She continued, “I've done that for the past 13 years ... I'd much rather share videos YES from my living room instead of onstage in Vegas.”
“And no I'm not gonna put on heavy makeup and try try try on stage again and not be able to do the real deal with remixes of my songs for years and begging to put my new music in my show for MY fans ... so I quit !!!!” she said.
