Britney Spears, the pop icon who rose to fame in the late 1990s with her debut single "Baby One More Time," has had a turbulent career marked by tremendous success and personal struggle. An issue that has garnered much controversy in recent years is her conservatorship under her father, Jamie Spears. In 2008, Britney was placed under a legal conservatorship following a series of public meltdowns. This arrangement allowed her father and a lawyer to manage her personal affairs and multimillion-dollar estate. Supporters of the conservatorship argue it was necessary to protect Britney from exploitation and provide stability during a vulnerable period in her life.

Critics, however, view it as an infringement on Britney's freedom, with the "Free Britney" movement gaining momentum globally. The controversy escalated following the release of the Framing Britney Spears documentary in early 2021, which exposed the constraints imposed on Britney under the conservatorship, sparking renewed public scrutiny and sympathy. Britney herself has spoken out against the conservatorship, expressing her desire for it to end and revealing allegations of abuse and exploitation. This has led to a protracted legal battle, with her insisting on the right to control her life and finances.

In the midst of this ongoing struggle, Britney has found solace in her relationship with Sam Asghari. The couple has been together since they met on the set of her "Slumber Party" music video in 2016. Asghari, a fitness trainer and actor, has been a source of support for Britney during her fight against the conservatorship. The pair announced their engagement in September 2021, a development warmly received by her fans. They were married in June 2022.

Sam Asghari Calls Media "Absolutely Disgusting" for Telling Britney Spears' Story for Her

In a recent Instagram story, Sam speaks out in defense of his wife, who he claims has been mistreated and abused not only by her father in the conservatorship, but also by the media and so-called friends who attempted to tell her story for her. He starts by saying that he respects Britney's privacy and that's why he doesn't talk about her very much in public, but he finds it "absolutely disgusting" that people in her life tried to tell her story publicly when it wasn't even their story to tell.

"How are you gonna take the most influential person of our generation, the princess of pop, America’s sweetheart, and put her in prison where her father tells her what to do, what water to drink, who to see, and use her as a money-making machine?” he says. "And then all of a sudden after 15 years, after she's free, after all those gaslighting and after all those things that went down, how are you gonna put her under a microscope and tell her story? No. That’s also disgusting.”

He also urged fans not to believe what you read online because "99% of the time" it's just clickbait that companies use to make money. "That time is over. Not going to allow that and that should stop, the gaslighting and all that sh*t, got to stop," he concluded.

TMZ previously reported that Britney's health has not been in good shape. She reportedly drinks caffeine in copious amounts, via coffee, Red Bull, etc., in order to gain energy and and a high. But Britney responded with an Instagram caption about how she has been prioritizing different alternatives.

"My mind gets busy and sometimes that can be an easy target to mess with 🙄 …. Anyways, I’m sticking to watermelon juice, which is the weirdest thing ever but I was told for years I can’t have coffee and now that I can it’s my pride … I can’t even look at it !!! And green tea 🍵 is my prized possession !!! You clever little turds 💩😂 … Sorry but I never stay up late with Red Bull," she wrote in the caption.

Fans are praising Sam for sticking up for Britney, knowing that she has been going through many difficulties lately. However, there are still many fans who believe the conspiracy theory that the videos we've been seeing of Britney recently aren't even Britney at all. They believe these are deep fakes and that the real Britney is either in hiding or has already died.
