'Orange Is The New Black' star Taryn Manning says she is "worried" about Britney Spears and claims many people have reached out to her to help with the situation. So, the actress says she hears the outcry...and is now willing and able to help the pop princess.
Manning took to Instagram to post the message, along with sharing a throwback picture of her and Spears in the 2002 movie, 'Crossroads.'
"Not trying to get likes I could care less. I am worried about my friend and co-star. Too many times we let one go a-stray and never bother to poke our heads around. “Not my chair, not my problem," the 'ONITB' star began.

She continued, "Hey, least we aren’t walking into a gas chamber out of left field today #love @britneyspears ❤️ for all of you who hit me daily to do something. I hear you now! We care. Voice away angels this is your playground❤️ can’t phase us anymore. she is my focus. ❤️ loving you."
After Taryn's post, supporters of the "freebritney" movement were commenting about they hoped the actress did end up helping Britney in some way.
As we reported, there is a group of fans using the hashtag 'freebritney' who do not believe the pop star should be in a conservatorship at this point. The group has protested outside of Britney's court hearings and has tried to use social media to rally others to their cause.
One person reacted to the post by saying, "Glad you’re worried because nobody has had her back really for over a decade being sentenced to life under a damn slavery. They need to let her out of the conservatorship and give her life back to her. No one has seen her with her kids since the incident with her dad and her boyfriend is sketchy AF. Her friends and those that care need to step up to the plate and speak out for her because they have her silenced."
Another added, "Thank you for speaking up for #freebritney silence is why this has gone on so long."
Several fans pointed out how much they appreciated both woman's work on the movie, and hope Manning will follow up on her statements. One fan said, "I love "Crossroads". It was a very inspiring movie in my life. Thanks for showing your concern for the welfare of Britney. We, the true fans are demanding her freedom back. #FreeBritney #EndTheConservatorship #WhereIsBritney"
"OMG YES!!!! I love you so much for this!! This is REAL!! #FreeMyBritney!!!" another post read.
It's unclear if Taryn is just showing public support for Britney, or if she plans on taking any sort of private action.
