‘Piece of me’?: Nine new topless pictures from Britney Spears [photos]

American singer Britney Spears shared the context behind her excessive posting of topless pictures, via an Instagram post on 16 August. 

‘I DIDN’T GET A BOOB JOB’

Britney Spears has posted nine new topless pictures in the last two days, with a total of eight in an album post where she gives her 33.4 million followers an explanation behind her excessive posting of topless pictures. 

She first addresses why her breasts have appeared to be larger in recent pictures. 

“No guys … I didn’t get a boob job in just a week … nor am I pregnant … I have boobs in these pics cause I devoured food ,” wrote Spears’.

She then went on to explain she just wanted to shed a layer in the heat. 

“Before I show you more pics of my body … I want you to understand my thoughts on exposing my skin !!!! In my opinion it’s quite twisted the immediate response of when any woman is hot and they want to shed a layer … no … I’m not talking in a strip club or a performance … just on a practical scale of being in your car and realizing you’re wearing a stupid long sleeve shirt in the summer,” she continued. 

‘I WAS BORN NAKED’

The pop star explained that she was born naked and performing on stage tended to make her more self conscious but she is over that now.

“I feel like performing made me too self conscious about my body and that’s not attractive ….. anyways I bet you’re wondering why I’d expose my body NOW … well it’s because I was born into this world naked and I honestly feel like the weight of the world has been on my shoulders and it’s made me view myself that way !!!! I wanted to see myself in a lighter way … naked,” continued Britney. 

“Like the way I was born and to me looking back at my pictures when I shoot it’s insane the psychology in seeing myself in my purest form gives evidence that pain … hurt … tears … and heavy burdens aren’t who I am. I am a woman …. a beautiful … sensitive woman who needs to look at myself in my purest form,” she added. 

She also stated that she won’t be going topless forever but it is where she is at now. She went on to say that the #FreeBritney movement has played a role in this too.

“I will admit the FREE BRITNEY comments after I took my shirt off were actually really f****** funny !!! The Free Britney campaign started with all your amazing pink Free Britney shirts 3 years ago !!! There’s a way deeper meaning to the movement than you can ever imagine … my fans have always been so damn amazing and I love you all,” she concluded.
