Story: Her tweet comes after the release of Framing Britney Spears had many fans and fellow celebrities worried about her well-being
It seems like the whole world has been talking about the pop star since the release of the New York Times-produced documentary Framing Britney Spears came out on Friday.
The film explores her meteoric rise to fame, cruel treatment by the media, very public struggles with mental health and ongoing conservatorship battle with father Jamie Spears.
Even Britney’s boyfriend Sam Asghari had something to say, taking to his Instagram Story to share his two-cents on Tuesday.
‘Now it’s important for people to understand that I have zero respect for someone trying to control our relationship and constantly throwing obstacles our way.’ Asghari began his post, referring to Spears’ dad.
‘In my opinion Jamie is a total d**k. I won’t be going into details because I’ve always respected our privacy but at the same time I didn’t come to this country to not be able to express my opinion and freedom.’
The Iranian fitness model added an animated ‘mic drop’ emoji.
