Britney Spears has once again sparked a wave of mental health concerns on her Instagram. The 38-year-old pop princess has made headlines galore this year as her 24-million-strong army of followers spotted 12+ images of the "Toxic" singer appearing both repetitive in nature and sporadically posted – alongside the singer speaking in a British accent, fans proved worried that the openly bipolar star might not be the most stable.
Britney's Monday videos came with spinning, high-pitched music, and the mom of two looking fabulous. The comments section was clearly voicing concern, though.

Shortly after making global headlines for some karaoke to George Michael – now deleted – Britney updated her Instagram with a twirling, energetic dance from her L.A. mansion's living room – videos are below.
Seen flaunting her killer body in a tiny, low-waisted pair of black shorts and skimpy yellow sports bra as she worked her famous body, Britney took to her caption to admit not having left the house "in a while" – the bombshell confessed to being "bored." Over 1.3 million views were clocked to the first video, but remarks voiced worry.

Racking up over 410 likes was a simple comment, spelled out in caps: "ARE U OKAY?" The user quickly found themselves clapped back at by others, though, with one fan writing: "She is a million times better than you lol."
The remark wasn't isolated, though. Britney's second video saw a remark clocking over 380 likes: "Is anyone taking care of you?" the fan wrote.
"What is going on?" another wrote.
The third, and very similar, video posted on Monday gave fans an encore, with the first 30 minutes seeing both love as one user requested a "Britney concert," plus, once again, concern. "She cray," a fan rather hurtfully wrote.

Fresh in the news, per legal documents obtained by The Blast, is Britney's 2008-commenced conservatorship under father Jamie Spears and his lawyer. A Los Angeles County judge just ordered the singer to remain under financial control until at least August – the decision appears a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
As to who is "taking care" of Britney, fans would likely argue that the star can handle herself, although she is not alone in quarantine. Iranian personal trainer boyfriend Sam Asghari is with the star – earlier this year, horseback riding photos of Britney and Sam had fans dubbing the singer "the most authentic" she's ever looked.

Britney made headlines in March for addressing the level of concern her social media was sparking.
“I’ve read a lot of things online of people criticizing my posts …. saying I post the same 15 pictures with the same red background and wearing the same white bathing suit,” she wrote. “For me I get really excited about my posts …. and I like to share them with you all !!!! I’ve never owned a white bathing suit before and I simply liked the red background !!!!”
“Reading all of the mean comments really hurts my feelings …. and I wanted to share because you really shouldn’t be saying all of these mean things to someone you don’t even know. This goes for bullying anyone really !!!!!!” the star added.
