Britney Spears Deletes Instagram Shortly After ‘Mind Your Business’ Release

It seems singer Britney Spears wants fans to mind their business!

Shortly after releasing her new song, "Mind Your Business" with will.i.am, the 41-year-old pop star deleted her Instagram account. Fans who tried to access the singer's Instagram page on Saturday night were disappointed to see that it had been taken down.

On Saturday afternoon, the "Hold Me Closer" singer's Instagram page was no longer available. In its place was a message that read, “Sorry, this page isn’t available. The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed. Go back to Instagram.”

It is not immediately clear why the pop star decided to delete her Instagram page. The night before, she had shared a video that featured her and her husband, Sam Asghari, wearing matching hats. Britney had done little to no promotion on her new song, only reposting will.i.am's posts to her own Instagram Stories.

This is not the first time that the singer has taken down her Instagram page. She has done it several times over the past year and fans are never quite sure when it will come back online. The last time that Britney deleted her Instagram account was on June 8, shortly after posting a photo of Brad Pitt.

“We all have our family issues but I do have a beautiful family !!! My mom and dad were a stunning couple when they were young … like shocking attractive !!!” she wrote at the time. “I’m sharing this picture because he looks so much like my uncle, it’s kind of creepy !!! My dad’s two brothers lived with us when I was growing up.”

“When I was 2, the one that is identical to this picture helped potty train me … my miniature baby toilet was bright yellow but one day when I sat down, there was a crack in the seat and it cut my little booty !!! All I remember was he picked me up, we looked in the mirror together and he said ‘don’t cry’ !!!” she added.

Although the “Toxic” singer has turned comments off on most of her Instagram posts over the past year, she decided to leave them on for this one. “Anyone else think it’s strange that an uncle would potty train his niece? And then she would randomly post about it decades later?” one fan asked. “The fact of the comments for THIS are on for this and not any other post as of recently really blows my mind. I don’t know what to make of that,” another follower wrote.

Although she has not done a lot of promotion for “Mind Your Business” with will.i.am, she has posted several videos on Twitter to promote her new memoir, “The Woman In Me,” which will be released on October 24, 2023. Fans have been quick to preorder the book months before its official release.

‘Super proud of you especially with how hard this must have been. This is brave, strong, and bold, we are owed no more insight into your world but you have allowed us an honest look once again. We love you, Britney,” one fan commented.

“You have no idea how much we love you and how proud we are of you, Britney. I just want you to know that you have SO MANY mothers, fathers, sisters, sons, daughters, and friends all over the world and we will always support you no matter what,” another follower wrote.

“I’m so happy for you!! You deserve everything good this world has to offer!! Congratulations on finally being able to tell YOUR story on YOUR own terms,” a third fan chimed in as many followers shared receipts of their preorder confirmation.

The book synopsis reads:

"In June 2021, the whole world was listening as Britney Spears spoke in open court. The impact of sharing her voice—her truth—was undeniable, and it changed the course of her life and the lives of countless others. The Woman in Me reveals for the first time her incredible journey—and the strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history."

"Written with remarkable candor and humor, Spears’s groundbreaking book illuminates the enduring power of music and love—and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms, at last. "

Britney's memoir, "The Woman In Me" will hit bookshelves on October 24.
