Last November, Britney Spears won a legal battle to free herself from a 13-year conservatorship that dictated both her personal and professional life. The pop star is sharing more about her experience during that difficult period.
On August 28, the singer posted a 22-minute clip to YouTube addressing the conservatorship and the alleged abuse involved.
I鈥檓 learning everyday is a clean slate to try and be a better person and do what makes me happy 鈥� yes I choose happiness today. I tell myself every day to let go of the hurt bitterness and try to forgive myself and others to what may have been hurtful.

鈥淚 was scared broken. I鈥檓 sharing this because I want people to know I鈥檓 only human. I do feel victimized after these experiences and how can I mend this if I don鈥檛 talk about it,鈥� Spears, via YouTube.
The singer鈥檚 mother, Lynne Spears, responded to the recording with a post on her Instagram the same day. 鈥淏ritney, your whole life I have tried my best to support your dreams and wishes! I have tried everything. I love you so much, but this talk is for you and me only, eye to eye, in private.鈥�
Spears released her first new single in six years with 鈥楬old Me Closer,鈥� a collaboration with Elton John. 鈥淚 have an amazing song right now with one of the most brilliant men of our time and I鈥檓 so grateful鈥�, Spears said in her video.
鈥淏ut if you鈥檙e a weird, if you鈥檙e a weird introvert oddball like me, who feels alone a lot of the time and you needed to hear a story like this today so you don鈥檛 feel alone, know this: my life has been far from easy and you鈥檙e not alone,鈥� Spears, via YouTube.
