Britney Spears is adamant she’ll likely never return to the stage after being left “traumatised” by past experiences. 

The pop superstar recently released Hold Me Closer, her collaboration with Elton John, marking her first new music in six years.

Hilary Duff – ‘luck… or something’

Britney Spears vows to return to the UK stage ‘very soon’ – but will ‘never’ perform in the US again

However, in a new post on Instagram that has since been deleted, the hitmaker reflected on her career during her 13-year conservatorship and insisted she will “probably never perform again just because I’m stubborn and I will make my point”.

Citing her lack of creative control and unpleasant experience working with photographers, she explained: “…[T]he most offensive SO CALLED professional pictures on every tour.

“I mean they could have at least cheated and retouched them for me … just saying … 2 day shoots for new show in Vegas literally the worst ever … and me excited for the pictures for 5 months on tour … they never showed me any,” added the singer (via Rolling Stone).

“I’d rather quit shit in my pool and shoot photos of myself in studios over working with the most offensive people in my life.”

Adding she was uncomfortable with the number of dancers she was forced to perform with during her ‘Britney: Piece of Me’ residency, she shared: “I’m pretty traumatised for life and yes I’m pissed as fuck and no I won’t probably perform again just because I’m stubborn and I will make my point.”

The I’m a Slave 4 U star last performed live in 2017.
