Britney Spears says she would rather be feared than loved – Daily Mail

Britney Spears shared that she wasn’t afraid of being unlikeable as she showed off some tasteful looks on Instagram on Tuesday.

The 40-year-old pop superstar mused after her most recent trip to Las Vegas how ‘being nice’ led people to take advantage of her back when she had her popular Vegas residency.

Instead of being ‘loved,’ the songstress added that she would much rather be ‘feared.’ 

Britney’s post featured snaps of her in a sizzling black sweater crop top that showed off a hint of her tummy.

She paired the look with a high-waisted short black skirt with a dramatic diagonal slant highlighting her toned legs. 

The blond beauty wore her hair piled up and in a fanned-out ponytail, and she rested her hands over her tummy while posing for the camera. 

She also tried out other looks, including a white sleeveless top with spaghetti straps decorated with intricate gold designs, along with a set of lustrous silver leggings. 

The Toxic singer grinned ear-to-ear in a third ensemble featuring a bizarre plaid shirt comprised of patchwork blue, pink and yellow sections.

She wore the odd crop top with dark skinny jeans and white-rimmed aviator sunglasses.

Despite the playful character of her photos, she was filled with negative emotions as she reminded her trying days hosting a residency in Las Vegas. 

‘The only thing I’ve known when I used to go to Vegas was hour long meet and greets with 40 people every night getting the worst pics of me and then a two hour show !!!!’ she complained. 

‘Let’s just say THIS TIME visiting it gave me a whole new perspective on what it means to live !!!! Being able to go to the spa was a highlight as well … and you know what ??? Don’t ever pity me like my masseuse does ….’ she continued. ‘“People do love you!” …. Huh ???? Huh ????’ 

‘I don’t want to be loved … I want to be feared !!! Being loved and being nice got me taken advantage of …… so take your pity and go f*** yourselves !!!!’ she concluded on a defiant note.

Britney has previously complained that her conservatorship gave her little creative control over her Vegas shows.

She also lamented how she was forced to perform remixes of her popular songs, rather than the original mixes that she made hits out of.

Although the hitmaker managed to mostly avoid squabbling with her family in her first post, she returned shortly afterward with a video that referenced sibling conflicts in her caption.  

She recounted how her brother Bryan Spears had refused to even give her some of his own drinks throughout the years. 

‘I asked my brother at least 15 times like a loser for some of his jack and coke … ONE TIME he said yes in 4 years !!!!’ she recalled 

‘Guess it’s because he’s 7 years older than me and he’s older than Jamie Lynn … who knows maybe that’s why,’ she speculated.

She had previously recounted how her conservatorship banned her from drinking alcohol, and she celebrated having her first glass of champagne in 14 years with her fiancé Sam Asghari back in November. 

At the time, she was celebrating the termination of her conservatorship.

Britney had been sober since her 2007 breakdown, but prior to that she had abused alcohol and drugs.

In 2012, her former manager Sam Lufti testified that the singer’s widely publicized head-shaving incident was to prevent authorities from being able to drug test her, as testing hair fibers can reveal drug use from a much longer timeframe than other methods.

‘She told me someone had told her that they can scientifically test her hair for a history of drug use, so she shaved it off,’ Lufti testified during a civil trial against Britney and her parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears. 

In her latest post, Britney included a video of herself strutting in her new looks and putting on a fashion show for the camera.

In addition to outfits she had already shared, she also showed off a revealing pale green bandeau, which she paired with her silver leggings and black heels.
