Britney Spears has taken to Instagram to respond to people who have been questioning her recent posts on social media.
Britney often uses her Instagram page to share inspirational quotes, dance workouts and impromptu fashion shows with her fans, though it seems like not everyone is a fan of the superstar singer.
Indeed, it was only recently that her boyfriend Sam Asghari leapt to her defense after rapper and producer Timbaland appeared to mock her on social media.
After the Give it to Me rapper mocked a video of Britney dancing - where she can be seen grooving to Nelly Furtado's song, Say It Right, which features Timbaland's vocals - Sam rushed to the defense of his girlfriend.
"Okkkkkkk @britneyspears like @lilduval said @TEYANATAYLOR you got 24 hours to respond," Timbaland wrote on Twitter, comparing Britney's freestyle moves to R&B artist Teyana Taylor's dancing.

Asghari responded, "Since when someone being themselves (extremely talented) is a problem? Don't bother for a response from her she actually has real fans and people that have been inspired from her work unlike you that had to buy followers.
"I mean 3M followers 11k likes? Doesn't even make since. I even had to look you up? [sic]"
And now, Britney has taken to Instagram to share a message with her fans, including those who are critical of her social media posts.
The singer shared a quote from a bible verse that reads, "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong."
She wrote her own caption underneath the quote, which reads;
"I get how some people might not like my posts or even understand them, but this is Me being happy ….. this is Me being authentic and as real as it gets !!!!! I want to inspire people to do the same and just be themselves without pleasing others ….. that’s the key to happiness"

And fans were delighted with the message. One wrote, "Yes Brit!! ??? We love you and all want you to be happy. X"
"I love you Britney. You're so real..." Another fan added.
Yesterday, Britney shared a selfie with her fans on social media. She wrote, "It’s nice to go outside and shoot ??? .... the natural light always reveals the magic in the eyes ☀️?? !!!!!! Ps no photoshop on this photo !!!!!!"
