“The constant lies from the media and TMZ have felt like borderline harassment … it’s extremely disturbing, due to the fact of how incredibly important it is at this time in my life to be supported and respected !!!” she wrote, alongside a video from “The Andy Griffith Show”.
“Borderline Harassments”
In the clip, Andy Griffith tells Ron Howard, “Just because somebody said something doesn’t mean it has to be printed. You don’t circulate stories that are mean and unkind about people. There are too many other stories to put in, nice stories.”
She went on to continue, “Also, the way the news has always spread lies about me is incredibly heartbreaking !!!”
Despite the controversies surrounding the singer, including her conservatorship battle with her father and sister, Spears emphasized her personal growth in the face of media attention.
“I meditate over hope and excitement for my future !!! I have transformed my whole life with the elimination of my conservatorship and I deserve respect !!!” Spears stated. “It’s almost embarrassing commenting on this because of how completely outrageous what’s being said is !!! It’s my right to protect myself from the cruelty of the outside world !!!”
