Brit signaled her allegiance by voicing her assist for Wade Robson. Sharing a video he made a pair weeks again selling his From Trauma To Triumph podcast, she wrote gushing, if rambling, phrases about her previous buddy:
“Watch till the top… It warms my coronary heart to see an older man take his time to even communicate on such a topic!!! Come on let’s discuss ??? … there’s trauma after which there’s TRAUMA !!!”
Whereas she doesn’t point out Michael, it’s clear the trauma which impressed Robson to call his podcast. The dancer has lengthy been open together with his allegations in opposition to the Depart Me Alone singer, together with within the highly effective Leaving Neverland documentary. Right here’s the total video, btw — Brit deleted her publish already, but it surely’s clearly nonetheless up on his web page:
Britney stated about Wade’s podcast visitor within the preview clip, Dr. Peter A. Levine:
“The factor I believed was lovely is that he stated it’s not crucial in any respect to recollect the small print of your trauma!!!”
Sure, she’s again to citing her personal alleged abuse through the years of her conservatorship, below the thumb of her father and with out the essential rights of bodily autonomy. She defined:
“For 13 years I used to be pressured to see docs and discuss my private life in opposition to my will and I used to be proper the entire time !!! You are taking it to God and if God isn’t listening, like once I was in that place for 4 months in opposition to my will … actually not okay in any respect !!! I took it to a spot of power nobody ought to ever be burdened with … it was the mind-set of desperation and concern and lack of all of the individuals I beloved and would die for if nobody had been round !!!”
About not remembering? She says she would moderately not — however swears she received’t abuse medicine or alcohol to neglect:
“I don’t need to bear in mind these issues … however I see now I can’t face my previous, how do I transfer ahead if I don’t know the place I’ve been ???

There’s a full understanding of what he’s saying and I feel I’m gonna cry for the remainder of my life now!!! God bless you”
She clearly was targeted on her more moderen trauma and never Wade’s MJ stuff. In fact, Britney and Wade have their very own controversial historical past. See, Wade was the dancer Britney had a fling with when she was relationship Justin Timberlake again within the day. It was that dishonest scandal that led JT to do his notorious spite bop Cry Me A River — and possibly even the IRL model of the revenge within the music video.
So it’s fascinating she selected to publish a video which, whereas specializing in a visitor’s phrases, did very a lot plug Wade’s podcast. Particularly since she’s supported Michael Jackson up to now. MJ’s followers clearly felt betrayed as a result of they went HARD for her on social media! Right here’s a sampling:
“oh britney jean spears… out of all people you might’ve used for example of a sufferer with trauma you used a liar that exploited Michael’s dying with a f**okay ass documentary understanding that Michael couldn’t defend himself ??”
“Disillusioned but not stunned provided that she was having an affair with him while Brandi was nonetheless with him”
“Britney should’ve identified what it was prefer to be in Michael’s footwear, as she additionally suffered from the identical “value of fame” and “private abuses” Michael went by way of. And Michael suffered, was bullied, was demonized method an excessive amount of and much more. I can by no means settle for what she did this time.”
“She is going to delete this, she’s all the time been an enormous supporter of Michael. Let’s want for the perfect”
Nicely… we imply that final one was proper, she did delete. Although whenever you’re speaking about somebody who deletes virtually all her posts, that isn’t essentially an indication she retracts the assertion.
Do YOU assume Britney meant this as implicit assist of Wade’s longstanding allegations in opposition to Michael? Or simply for Wade and his podcast typically? Is it attainable to do one with out the opposite??
