Pop star Britney Spears is leaving little to the imagination yet again!
Although the 42-year-old pop star deactivated her Instagram account last week, she made her return on Wednesday night with an announcement that she was on a trip to French Polynesia months after the release of her successful album, "The Woman In Me."

On Wednesday night, the "Oops!... I Did It Again" singer returned to Instagram but ditched her bikini for a shot that featured her standing with her back to the camera. She is turned slightly to smile at the camera over one shoulder, her blonde hair swept back out of her face. She strategically placed emojis of diamonds on the picture in order to prevent Meta, Instagram's parent company, from taking down the photo.
In the caption of this Instagram post, she wrote, “Just landed in French Polynesia !!!” In only six hours, the picture was liked by 225,000 fans, including TikTok star Addison Rae.

She repeated the caption in a second Instagram video that featured her dancing in the same outfit.

Britney Spears Denies Working On A New Album With Charli XCX
On January 3, the “Toxic” singer took to Instagram to slam reports that she was working with Charli XCX on a new album. It seems that the pop star has no plans to work on a new album as she insists that she has quit the music industry entirely. “Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash !!! They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album … I will never return to the music industry !!!” she wrote at the time.
“When I write, I write for fun or I write for other people !!! For those of you who have read my book, there’s loads that you don’t know about me … I’ve written over 20 songs for other people the past two years !!!” she explained. “I’m a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it that way !!! People are also saying MY BOOK WAS RELEASED WITHOUT MY APPROVAL ILLEGALLY and that’s far from the truth … have you read the news these days ??? I’m so LOVED and blessed !!!”
Britney Spears Blames The Conservatorship For Causing The 'Death' Of Her Creativity
The pop star was subject to a controversial 13-year conservatorship from February 2008 to November 2021, which seems to have eliminated any hope that she will ever return to creating new music.
“The woman in me was pushed down for a long time. They wanted me to be wild onstage, the way they told me to be, and to be a robot the rest of the time,” she wrote in her 2023 memoir. “I felt like I was being deprived of those good secrets of life — those fundamental supposed sins of indulgence and adventure that make us human. They wanted to take away that specialness and keep everything as rote as possible. It was death to my creativity as an artist.”
“I had been so infantilized that I was losing pieces of what made me feel like myself. The conservatorship stripped me of my womanhood and made me into a child. I became more of an entity than a person onstage. I had always felt music in my bones and my blood; they stole that from me,” she wrote, explaining to her fans why she won’t be going on to create any new music any time soon.
In an interview with People magazine conducted over email shortly before the release of her memoir, the Princess of Pop referred to herself as a “simple girl” who likes to spend her time playing with her dogs and watching “Friends.” She also loves to travel and spends a lot of time visiting places like Mexico and Hawaii.
