The Grammy winner’s latest Instagram post comes shortly after she shared a very different message on the platform.

After the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Spears reacted to Sabrina Carpenter’s medley performance — specifically the part where she kisses one of her backup dancers, who was dressed as an alien.

“Why is she kissing an alien onstage?” Spears said in a video. “I adore her. I love her to death. I didn’t understand that part.”

Then, seemingly referencing her famous 2003 VMAs kiss with Madonna, Spears said, “Why didn’t she kiss a girl?”

“That was weird. But I also thought that the whole thing was kind of weird altogether,” the “Toxic” singer added.

Elsewhere in the video, she shared praise for the “Espresso” singer.

“This Sabrina girl, she said my name on the red carpet, and I thought that was kind of cool, because I forget I’m famous sometimes,” Spears explained. “Because I’m a mom, I’m kind of old, blah blah blah. But that was kind of cool … She said something and I was like, ‘Thanks, that’s cool.’ She made me cool!”
