Britney Spears is sorry for her fatphobic Instagram post

At this point, we’re used to Britney Spears’ special flavor of posting to Instagram. Between dancing videos and nudes, she often shares random images to muse about her life in a sort of free write. After so many years of silence during her oppressive conservatorship, her posts are usually greeted with support, even if they can be nonsensical or cryptic at times. But one post published on Tuesday has gotten Spears into some very hot water.

Accompanying an image of a quote attributed to Rodney Dangerfield that reads, “I found there was only one way to look thin: hang out with fat people,” Spears wrote. “I wish I could have chosen the nannies for my children … my dancers … I mean if I had Christina Aguilera’s dancers I would have looked extremely small… I mean why not talk about it ?? Don’t you think my confidence would have been a bit better if I could choose where I lived, ate, whom I called on the phone, dated and who was on stage with me!!!”
