The documentary 'Framing Britney Spears' debuted a number of weeks ago and is still being discussed everywhere. The documentary details the cruelties of tabloid media that the superstar has been forced to endure, as well as highlightsing how the singer's father Jamie Spears remained sole conservator of her person and estate.
The pop singer has previously addressed the documentary indirectly but she wrote about it specifically for the first time on Instagram overnight.
She said: "I didn't watch the documentary but from what I did see of it, I was embarrassed by the light they put me in.
"I cried for two weeks and well...I still cry sometimes."
The 39-year-old posted the statement along with a video of herself dancing to the Aerosmith song Crazy, adding that she needed to dance to singer Steven Tyler's music "every night of my life to feel wild and human and alive".
"My life has always been very speculated, watched, and judged - really my whole life,
"It takes a lot of strength to trust the universe with your real vulnerability because I've always been so judged, insulted and embarrassed by the media, and I still am to this day."
She added: "Every day dancing brings me joy... I'm not here to be perfect... perfect is boring... I'm here to pass on kindness."
