Britney Spears doesn’t look to be returning to her pop career anytime soon.
The singer has been absent from music in recent years amid reports she’s refusing to perform whilst dad Jamie Spears is listed as her conservator in the star’s controversial legal arrangement.
The situation has caused unrest among fans, who launched the #FreeBritney movement and, ahead of the Toxic star’s court hearing later this month, she answered a handful of questions from followers online.
And when one asked when she’d be performing again, Britney admitted she has “no idea”.

“I’m having fun right now,” insisted the star. “I’m in a transition in my life and I’m enjoying myself, so that’s it.”
Britney’s dad Jamie has been her conservator since the arrangement was put in place in 2008 but, since Jodi Montgomery was made co-conservator in 2019 when she stepped in to replace Jamie as he battled health issues, the singer has requested he relinquish complete control to her.
Britney has never argued against her conservatorship, but now that her father and mother Lynne are squabbling over financial arrangements, it is believed the Toxic star is planning to step in and have her say on the issue.
Judge Brenda Penny appointed officials at Bessemer Trust as co-conservator alongside her father last year, but that arrangement has not yet taken effect.
Documentaries from Hulu and the BBC have explored the issue.
