Candace Owens says Britney Spears’ worrisome behavior shouldn’t be ‘mocked’ after singer claims turning 5
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Candace Owens expressed concern for Britney Spears on the December 4, Wednesday, episode of her podcast, ‘Candace’.
The political commentator, while referring to the birthday videos of the ‘Princess of Pop’, said that “people obviously seem concerned,” after watching her in those videos, as reported by OK! Magazine.
Spears turned 43 on December 2 and via two videos on social media, she made two announcements — first, that she has shifted to Mexico from the US and second, that she had actually turned five.

Candace Owens claims Britney Spears was 'MKUltra’d'
Candace Owens said on her podcast, “In each video, she doesn't seem like herself. She hasn’t seemed herself in a very long time.”
The 35-year-old pundit then went on to mention Spears’ 13-year-old conservatorship. During that time, she was reportedly unnecessarily heavily medicated.
“Britney Spears was MKUltra’d,” she claimed, referring to a secret programme named Project MKUltra created by the CIA with an aim to control minds.
She further mentioned, “Britney Spears was put on the most severe medicine… This woman was put on lithium.”
Candace Owens fears for Britney Spears' wellbeing
Candace Owens also felt that Britney Spears needed support and her words should not be taken lightly.
Owens shared, “I don’t find Britney Spears and what Britney Spears is saying to be something to be mocked. Kanye [West] has spoken out about this extensively…”
“They tell everyone you need a break… They drug you out of your mind. That is what MKUltra'd accomplished,” she stated.
Owens also compared the 'Baby One More Time’ hitmaker’s situation with world famous people, like Michael Jackson, Princess Diana, who did not live a very content life.
She noted, “Maybe her, Michael Jackson, Princess Diana [are that level of famous] – all, by the way, who faced very tragic endings.”
Britney Spears accuses paparazzi for being mean to her
This came after Britney Spears blamed the paparazzi for her move to Mexico.
She stated, “It really kind of hurts my feelings that the paparazzi make my face look like I’m wearing like a white Jason mask. It doesn’t even look like me. They’ve always been incredibly cruel to me, the paparazzi and pictures and the way they’ve illustrated me to be in some of it.”
In another Instagram video, Spears called herself to be a five-year-old.

The ‘Toxic’ singer, who is the mother of two, added, “I'm turning 5 years old, and I have to go to kindergarten tomorrow.”
Notably, on her 43rd birthday on December 2, Spears was officially declared single by the court, more than a year after her divorce from Sam Asghari in August 2023.
