Britney Spears can’t escape the paparazzi. Yesterday (April 10), the pop icon took to Instagram, where she shared stories about visiting “exotic locations recently.” And as one could expect, the paps seemed to follow her everywhere. But thankfully, she said they weren’t nearly as bad as they are in Los Angeles.
Spears then shared a story of how the paparazzi snapped pictures of her while her car had broken down, and how the photographers captured her at an unflattering angle.
“I looked like an idiot !!! My facial expression, the way I was leaning over, the pooch in my stomach !!! It was horrible because they got a pic of me in a helpless situation, so of course I get protective of myself,” she said.
Spears also recalled a time when she searched for a personal trainer, who immediately body-shamed her upon their first encounter.
“I took the time 2 months ago to find a trainer and the first thing she did to me was literally … and I’m not even lying … pinch the skin on my stomach and legs and told me I need to get my younger body back … why the hell did she do that ??? It made me cry … I obviously didn’t hire her so I did it myself,” she said.
Elsewhere in the post, she revealed that she works out for 45 minutes a day, three times a week.

“Woke up this morning and my skin is so dry !!! After visiting a couple of exotic locations recently, I have to coat my body in lotion at night !!! It’s so beautiful out and I want to get out more … paps are everywhere but not nearly as bad as it is in LA though … my car broke down the other day and I got out telling Hesam to come on my side and the paps were there and took pics [rolling eyes emojis] … I looked like an idiot !!! My facial expression, the way I was leaning over, the pooch in my stomach !!! It was horrible because they got a pic of me in a helpless situation, so of course I get protective of myself !!! I went out with a friend and same thing !!! It didn’t look like my body and by no means am I saying my body is perfect but I took the time 2 months ago to find a trainer and the first thing she did to me was literally … and I’m not even lying … pinch the skin on my stomach and legs and told me I need to get my younger body back … why the hell did she do that ??? It made me cry … I obviously didn’t hire her so I did it myself !!! I work out for 45 min, 3x a week … that’s it !!! I hate working out for too long … I’m sharing this because I have worked hard to get in shape, yet I don’t look like the pictures that the paps take !!!
