Britney Spears posted a racy nude photo of herself on Instagram, but it wasn’t long before some of her conspiracy theory-minded fans questioned whether it was in fact the pop star.
Many of the Baby… One More Time hitmaker’s fans are convinced her Insta account is being controlled by her family.
And they remain unconvinced by Britney’s latest snap, where she posed nude from behind just about to hop into a bath.
Her fans fiercely debated the image amid her ongoing acrimonious conservatorship battle.
Some suggested that Britney’s neck tattoo should be visible in the photo. The 39-year-old singer has a tiny Hebrew tattoo on the nape of her neck.
“Where’s her neck tattoo? this doesn’t look like brit,” questioned one perplexed fan.
“We know this isn’t you,” stressed another.
“Y’all know this ain’t Britney, right?” added a third.
But, despite the debate raging over whether Britney was posing in the snap, 1.7 million of her 31.2 million followers liked the image, while over 28,000 took the time to comment on her unusually provocative image.
“Im tryna know if she gave her consent for this picture,” enquired one fan
Britney is usually known for posting short dance videos alongside inspirational memes.
And so her latest post is understandably being questioned by some of the fans who are trying to help her end her 13-year conservatorship battle.
Only recently a video of the star dancing was dissected by her loyal fans, many of whom stressed it was old and from over a year ago.
“This was from the other day!!! My first time dancing in heels for a while…my new lil project,” penned Britney in a post.
But her fans were unconvinced and one supporter blasted: “There’s no way that Britney herself actually runs this account. #FREEBRITNEY.”
“I don’t know what to trust anymore,” concluded another admirer.
A growing group of supporters have vowed to get her freed from her conservatorship through the #FREEBRITNEY movement – and the suspected controlling of her social media accounts is just another twist in a long list of accusations made by the US star who demands that “I deserve to have a life”.
Back in February, Britney’s social media manager Cassie Petrey addressed earlier rumours that the star isn’t managing her own accounts.
“There are a lot of inaccurate theories out there about how Britney Spears’ social media operates, and I want to give as much information as I can without violating her privacy or mine,” said Cassie on her own Instagram account.

“Britney creates her own posts and writes her own captions for Instagram.
“She finds the google images, pinterest images, quotes, memes and everything else herself. Nobody is suggesting any of that stuff to her. She generally edits the videos herself.
“If a video she sends in is edited by her social media team, it’s because she gave specific instructions and asked for it to be edited that way.

“Then she sees it and decides if she wants to post it or not.”
A lot has changed in Britney’s life in recent months, with several key parties in her life having quit.
Her father, Jamie, is still part of her conservatorship despite Britney’s legal attempt to have him removed, but the Bessemer Trust – the firm hired to oversee her financial affairs – recently quit to respect Britney’s wishes.
The star’s long-time manager Larry Rudolph resigned having cited Britney’s own intention to fully retire from show business.

And this week Britney’s lawyer Sam Ingham, who has been acting for her during the conservatorship proceedings, also resigned.
“I’ve lied and told the whole world, ‘I’m OK. And I’m happy.’ It’s a lie,” Britney said in her recent trial.
“I thought I just maybe [have] said that enough. Because I’ve been in denial. I’ve been in shock. I am traumatised.
“You know, fake it til you make it. But now I’m telling you the truth. OK? I’m not happy. I can’t sleep. I’m so angry. It’s insane. And I’m depressed. I cry every day.”
