Britney posted a video on Instagram that showed her rocking her hips from side to side in a long tan dress with a black pattern on it.

The video was simple, but the caption called out many people in her life.

She captioned it: "I had a calling from Jesus last night and you know what he said?... Dear child... your mom had a serving with her book at the exact time you needed her most... all for WHAT? FAME AND ATTENTION? Your ex did the same thing... he served with his first album using your name claiming you did him dirty."

While she didn't reveal any names, the only ex that released an album after they broke up was Justin with Justified.

Timberlake has said in the past that the album's second single, Cry Me A River, was about their break-up.

Britney's ex-husband Kevin Federline released his first album, Playing With Fire, while the two were still together.

FAMILY PROBLEMS

Not only did she call out seemingly Justin, but she put her mom and sister on blast as well.

Britney was talking about her sister, Jamie Lynn, when she wrote, "Then your blood, one of the hardest times in your life guess what your sister does … a book too … all for what?” in her caption.

Jamie Lynn released a memoir, Things I Should've Had Said, this year.

After Britney was freed from her 13-year conservatorship last year, Jamie Lynn put her on blast in the book, saying her behavior when she was younger was "erratic" and "spiraling."

Her mother, Lynne, released Through The Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family In a Tabloid World, in 2008, which drew some light on Britney's struggles with the paparazzi and mental health.

The 40-year-old has called out her family before for not supporting her or trying to get her out of her conservatorship.

“If you’re like my family who says things like ‘sorry, you’re in a conservatorship’ … probably thinking you’re different [from you] so they can f–k with you !!!!” she wrote in her previous court testimony.

A PUBLIC APOLOGY

An insider for Justin told in 2018 that he felt bad about how the song portrayed her.

“The whole thing was deeply painful for her. It really felt unfair to her as well because the song makes her look like the villain when the situation with Justin was way more complicated than that."

In his 2018 memoir, Hindsight, he opened up about writing Cry Me A River.

He wrote: “The feelings I had were so strong that I had to write it, and I translated my feelings into a form where people could listen and, hopefully, relate to it. People heard me and they understood it because we’ve all been there."

He was also under fire in 2021 after the documentary, Framing Britney Spears, aired and called him out for how he treated Britney during and after their relationship.

Justin also apologized to Janet Jackson about the infamous Super Bowl Halftime incident.

“I understand that I fell short in these moments and in many others and benefited from a system that condones misogyny and racism,” he wrote on Instagram.

Justin and Britney dated from 1999 to 2002.
