In a video shared on Instagram on September 30, the "Toxic" singer recalled how she almost lost her hair when her fireplace "blew up" in front of her. Although she quickly removed the video, it was transcribed by several media outlets.
“I was in my room and I turned the fire on and, all of a sudden, it blew up in my face," she said in the video, as per E! News. “The times it’s done it before, I quit so I always get my security to come in and light it for me because I was scared it was going to blow up.”
"This time, I just threw the whole thing in there and it blew into my face and took all my eyelashes off and my eyebrows,” she continued. “And see this baby hair? These baby bangs? This is from six months ago. It fizzled all my hair.”

"The person I was with would not wake up, and I thought I’d have to go to the emergency room because my face was on fire," she continued, although she declined to name the person in the video.
The Princess of Pop said it "hurt to just touch" her face and went through “six or seven hours” of pain before she decided to go through her medicine cabinet to find some relief.
"Finally, I took three Tylenol,” Britney explained. “Which is like a really, really big deal for me. It's like a f-cking Vicodin or something. But I took three and finally I went to sleep.”
Although she didn't disclose whether or not she went to the hospital for her injuries, she did say, “It was really bad, but all is good now,” adding, “It happens.”

Many fans are unsure of what to make of Britney’s recent Instagram posts. Over the weekend, she shared a regal photo of a man kissing what appears to be a woman’s hand.
“When he says, ‘Nice to meet you !!!’ These moments are our future where shall I kiss you next ???” she wrote in the caption, but it’s unclear who she is referring to. Many fans suspect that it might have something to do with her rollercoaster relationship with her former housekeeper, Paul Richard Soliz.
