Britney Spears Calls Out Fans For Calling Cops: 'My Privacy Was Invaded'

Singer Britney Spears is making sure her fans know exactly how she feels about Tuesday night's troubling incident.

On Tuesday night, around 11 PM, law enforcement officials showed up at Britney's door after not one but several fans reportedly called the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office to ask them to do a welfare check on the 41-year-old pop star's home.

The reason? The "Hold Me Closer" singer deleted her Instagram account, which has something that she has done multiple times in the past. However, it seems that this is the first time that several of her millions of fans have decided to call the police on her for deactivating a social media account, and it seems that Britney is, understandably, frustrated by the ordeal.

In a brief Twitter message posted on Thursday afternoon, the "Toxic" singer called out her fans for making "prank phone calls," which resulted in law enforcement officials showing up at her door.

“As everyone knows the police were called to my home based on some prank phone calls. I love and adore my fans but this time things went a little too far and my privacy was invaded," Britney wrote. "The police never entered my home and when they came to my gate they quickly realized there was no issue and left immediately.”

“This felt like I was being gaslit and bullied once the incident made it to the news and being portrayed once again in a poor and unfair light by the media," she continued. "During this time in my life, I truly hope the public and my fans who I care so much about can respect my privacy moving forward.”

She signed off the post, “All the love, B.”

Although Britney has disabled comments on her Instagram post for the past several weeks, nothing stopped fans from commenting on her new tweet and apologizing for the behavior of other "fans."

One user tweeted, "True fans would never do this to you. I’m sorry this happened. You don’t deserve any of this. I hope one day you’ll be able to exist and live in peace without everyone’s bullsh*t ruining it. You deserve all the best! Love you, Britney."

Another fan commented, "Take care. A few people can't realize the limits and the respect of a human being. Take a vacation, breath, and never let people turn you down."

A third fan added, "Love you so much living legend @britneyspears. I respect your privacy but I do love all your social media posts so hope you return soon to Instagram (if you don't I also respect that). Still listen to your music every day and you will always be my number one artist."

At this point, it remains to be seen if the "Slumber Party" singer ever plans on returning to Instagram given what has just transpired. Britney has deactivated her Instagram account several times over the past year without incident.

Last month, the “Oops!…I Did It Again” singer told her millions of Instagram followers that she had “accidentally” deleted her Instagram account, writing, “I know my Instagram has been down a few times but honestly I did the last two times myself !!! Oops … I accidentally pressed the wrong button … d*mn that stupid button !!!”

Britney has shared more photos and footage featuring her dancing and trying on interesting outfits from her closet over the past few weeks, although there's no denying that some of the captions to her post have confused fans.

Last Thursday, Britney shared an Instagram post saying that she wanted to change her name to “River Red” after saying she wanted to change her name to “Brooklyn” only a few weeks ago.

In the caption, Britney wrote: “A bright one … easy does it !!! Thank you, childhood friend, I found my ball … don’t underestimate the power of purity !!! I see right through it all … it has liquid and is wet … it’s playful and has mass !!! I changed my name to River Red !!!”

Fans aren't sure what River Red is supposed to represent but hope that Britney will share when she's ready.
