Britney Spears looks back at ‘Crossroads’ to slam mom Lynne

She’s stronger than yesterday.

Britney Spears took to Instagram on Thursday to share a clip from the early aughts drama, “Crossroads,” and deftly slam mom Lynne, to boot.

“Scene in a movie I did a ways back,” the “Stronger” singer, 40, captioned the clip. “When I realized my [character’s] whole journey to find my mom ... and she doesn’t want to see me !!! I know ... PRETTY F—KING SAD !!! I mean ... Psss I mean it’s actually less worse than what my mom did to me in real life so️ ...”

The scene shows Spears’ character, Lucy, in the bathroom tearfully explaining that her mother “never wanted me.

“She said that her father made her have me,” she continued. “And that I was just a mistake.”

The “Stronger” singer’s conservatorship was finally terminated last November, freeing her after 13 years under her father Jamie’s restrictive thumb. Spears said earlier that month that her mother had been the one to not only support the conservatorship but turn Jamie Spears onto the idea.

“My dad may have started the conservatorship 13 years ago ... but what people don’t know is that my mom is the one who gave him the idea !!!! I will never get those years back .... she secretly ruined my life,” the pop star said at the time.

Spears in January also blasted little sis Jamie Lynn.

“My family ruined my dreams 100 billion percent and try to make me look like the crazy one,” she said. “My family loves to pull me down and hurt me, always, so I am disgusted with them!!!!”
