One of the things that we love about Britney Spears Instagram is that she is just so raw and real. She tells us what she’s thinking in a way that sometimes feels relatable and sometimes feels a little like she’s your friend you are getting to know.
And it’s a great thing to see her so free and happy. She recently posted about her love for Kate Hudson and Drew Barrymore, and well, we relate.
“PS I will tell you guys a little secret 🤫 … I’ve met 1000s of celebrities in the business … but I have to say the 2 people where I literally went speechless were @katehudson and @drewbarrymore … They are by far the 2 most beautiful people I have ever seen in my life !!! Like shocking !!! I had to open my stupid mouth 👄 with Kate so I ran away immediately and with Drew … I went mute 😶 !!! I’m saying all this because it honestly is weird that in social media the expectations to be perfect is pretty crazy !!!” she started.
She went on to say, “And although I love my husband I will be honest and say I get annoyed all the time 😂😂 !!! So I think sisterhood is actually profound with one another … We do care what others think and then when you start to take yourself seriously I give up before I even begin because I care too much !!! It’s too hard … I’m sharing this because we all seem to alienate behind our phones and computers 💻 … I’ve never opened a computer my whole life … just a phone 📱 … but I do miss just walking up to someone on the street and saying hi and giving a smile 😊 … It’s so rude … I said hi to a young group of kids and smiled … they looked at me like I was on crack 😂 !!! It honestly made me feel so stupid so I will just continue to go back on my phone and not associate because honestly I guess that makes you cool in this world 🌎 !!! I say all this but I will probably buy a computer today 👄👄 !!!”
Drew Barrymore responded to Britney‘s kind words. We wouldn’t know what to say, but Drew responded sweetly.
“Everyone at the show, because I was down here filming, came running up to me and was like did you see, and I just said I’ll see it when I get upstairs, I wanna be like thoughtful I wanna read every word that she says,” Drew shared. “I really want to respond thoughtfully, I really want to choose my words the right way.”
Drew was speechless, as we would have been. We get it. She continued talking about Britney writing her book, and how she was looking forward to reading it (as we all are).
She said, “to her writing her book because I just think it is such a smart and intelligent way to tell her story, it’ll get us all reading and off our screens, so thank you Britney for that, and she will control that narrative, and she will tell us in her own words, and it’s just a brilliant way for us to be invited into her world.”
We’re like Drew, excited for Britney‘s book and also would want to be careful with how we respond to Britney, because we would want to take care and make sure we would reply with the right words.
Because Britney is someone we admire and care about. So is Drew.
