Has Britney Spears commented on the documentary?

While Spears has not spoken publicly about her father in regard to the conservatorship case, she did acknowledge the existence of \"Framing Britney Spears\" in March.

\"I didn't watch the documentary, but from what I did see of it I was embarrassed by the light they put me in,\" she wrote in an Instagram post. \"I cried for two weeks and well … I still cry sometimes!!!!\"

She went on to call out the massive media attention she has garnered throughout her life and its effects.

\"My life has always been very speculated ... watched ... and judged really my whole life !!!\" she wrote. \"I have been exposed my whole life performing in front of people!!! It takes a lot of strength to TRUST the universe with your real vulnerability cause I've always been so judged ... insulted ... and embarrassed by the media ... and I still am till this day!!!\"

The singer also shared a message on social media in November 2020 about her well-being.

\"I know that there have been a lot of comments and a lot of people saying a lot of different things about me, but I just want to let you guys know that I am fine,\" she said in video message.

She went on to say that she is the \"happiest\" she's ever been.

Although the singer has shared her disapproval about the documentary and reiterated her positive mental state, she has expressed issues with the existing conservatorship arrangement she is under through her lawyer in court. And a report from The New York Times, published Tuesday, indicates this disapproval may date back years into the conservatorship.

The Times investigation claims confidential court records show Spears shared her disapproval of the conservatorship \"earlier and more often than had previously been known, and said that it restricted everything from whom she dated to the color of her kitchen cabinets.\"

The singer \"articulated she feels the conservatorship has become an oppressive and controlling tool against her,\" a court investigator wrote in a 2016 report pertaining to the conservatorship case, according to The New York Times.
