Britney Spears is saying "f-ck it" and celebrating the pink hair she calls "hot, if I say so myself." The 39-year-old singer today joked that she wasn't delivering a hair commercial, but that dying her hair a bright color for the first time ever was worth shouting about. Posting for her 29.8 million Instagram followers on Monday, the princess of pop showed off her gorgeous, fluffy, and layered pink locks, plus a killer cheetah-print catsuit, with the photos coming heavy and full of fun.

Scroll for the photos. Spears had already made headlines this month for channeling the pandemic's pink hair trend, with today seeing the "Toxic" hit-maker posing against a white wall and in an animal-print catsuit, one revealed to be sheer as fans swiped right. Addressing fans, Britney opened:
"No this is not a hair commercial ??♀️ … it’s the first time I’ve colored all of my hair a bright color so fuck it … I did as many hair flips that I could ??? !!!! Pink is hot if I do say so myself ?????? !!!"

Britney also said she's copied actress Reese Witherspoon with her throwbacks, then shouting out hit HBO Max series "Sex & The City," plus its star Carrie Bradshaw character, played by Sarah Jessica-Parker.
"But now I’m copying @sarahjessicaparker’s hair tease from Hocus Pocus ?♀️?♀️?♀️??? !!!! Swipe to see what I’m talking about ??? !!!!" she continued: "I was freaking 11 when that movie came out and I swear she had it right before Sex And The City."

Britney then revealed she'd been keen to wear red lipstick as a pre-teen, when seeing Sarah Jessica-Parker's 1993 movie "Hocus Pocus," but mom Lynne Spears had put her foot down.
"I wanted to wear red lipstick after seeing that movie but my mom wouldn’t let me so I did lipgloss instead," she added, then zooming onto another celeb shout-out, this time "Shake It Up" actress and singer Bella Thorne. Britney asked why she feels "like I'm @bellathorne's twin with pink hair." More photos below!
Britney's followers, now backing her more than ever amid "Framing Britney Spears" and the singer's 2008-commenced conservatorship, have been commenting. One asked what was "with the name dropping" - this comes as Britney lists her seven most-inspirational women this year, not limited to singers Miley and Noah Cyrus and actress Sharon Stone.
Others, meanwhile, threw shade, wondering if Britney is updating as they suggested the singer has no idea who Bella Thorne is. Britney has clapped back multiple times, confirming she is the one updating. Scroll for her bubblegum bikini and heels!
