Britney Spears felt "controlled" and "abused" amid her conservatorship

Britney - whose controversial conservatorship ran from 2008 until 2021 - said on Instagram: "I will show you the pictures that were taken of me during the conservatorship that were all a waste. I was never a star that could speak up in the conservatorship !!! I was in a business that preyed over the innocent and controlled where I went, who I saw, what I ate, which is 100 percent unfair and if I spoke up I was abused and I never did anything wrong !!! (sic)"

Britney - who is one of the best-selling artists of all time - revealed that the only time she felt "beautiful" was when she posed for photographer Ellen Von Unwerth.

The chart-topping singer explained: "The only photoshoot I've ever done was when Ellen Vonworth shot me in New York City for 2 hours and it was the first and only photo shoot a photographer made me feel beautiful.

"I will show you over 40 pictures I did with the conservatorship that are not only embarrassing and demoralizing. It almost feels like bullying from a business that was created by my father so he could have 10 women on his tour bus during my tours. The secret is that I was NEVER a star in the conservatorship. I was ABUSED 100 percent!!!

"PS the American conservatorship made me feel SOO BEAUTIFUL !!! Psss ... in conclusion the psychology in all the wasted times on PICS that my little brain sat there day and night for absolutely nothing !!! There's a reason I obviously don't like pictures because I like to SEE MY BODY ALIVE AND MOVING !!! (sic)"
