The Grammy winner, 42, shared a special video message on the social media platform on Thursday.

Revealed in the seconds-long clip in black text was that “something new” was coming soon from Britney.

Fans who wanted to be the “first to know” were told to sign up for the singer-songwriter’s mailing list in more black text.

Britney made sure to include a link to the mailing list sign-up web page in her tweet.

The music used in the video was the pop star’s first hit song, Baby One More Time.

Britney’s tweet could be her teasing new music.

However, that is highly unlikely since she revealed that she would not be releasing a new album or returning to the music industry just last week.

The blonde bombshell posted a picture of a painting – Salome Bearing the Head of St. John the Baptist by Guido Reni – to her Instagram Feed.

DONE FOR GOOD

The painting shows a woman holding the head of St. John the Baptist’s head on a large platter, according to Monticello.

In the caption of the post, she wrote: “Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash! 

“They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album… I will never return to the music industry!!!”

After she made the shocking announcement, Britney revealed that she’s been writing songs for other people.

She said: “I’ve written over 20 songs for other people in the past two years!!!

“I’m a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it that way!!!”

She also made it clear that her memoir, The Woman in Me, was released with her permission.

She concluded her Instagram post by saying: “I’m so LOVED and blessed!!!”

20 YEARS OF MUSIC

Britney’s fans on X shared their emotional reactions to her recent announcement.

One said: “She never wrote about ghostwriting in her book… read that s**t cover to cover.”

Another wrote: “Britney Spears, I will still be a mega Stan and supporter of you. I will still keep up with you because your legacy is superior.

“Keep taking care of yourself and always stay vigilant of those around you.”

“Do you think RCA is gonna sue her since she owes them some albums on her contract,” asked a third.

An emotional fan said: “I am not even kidding guys, I am actually crying at work I am not ready for never hearing @britneyspears music ever again!”

“She might delete the post. Maybe there’s still hope,” commented a fifth.

Others said: “I am dying to know which songs Britney Spears has ghostwritten” and “Leaving my denial in 2023. Thank you for 20+ years of greatness.”
