Britney Spears Says Beyoncé Is ‘All I Listen To’ Lately, Especially Her ‘Naughty’ Album
Britney Spears has revealed she has been listening almost exclusively to Beyoncé's music, praising both her 2024 chart-topping album Cowboy Carter and her earlier record 2003's Dangerously in Love, informally referred to as her "naughty" album. Spears shared the revelation via an Instagram post featuring videos of herself dancing to tracks by Beyoncé and Rihanna, continuing a long-running habit of posting dance clips on social media.
In the videos, Spears improvises choreography to Beyoncé's 2014 track "Haunted" and dances to Rihanna songs including "Love on the Brain" and "Unfaithful". The post comes months after Spears's suspected drink-driving arrest in March, which was reduced to a lesser "wet reckless" charge and followed by a stint in a treatment facility. It also follows news in July that New Girl creator Liz Meriwether has been confirmed to adapt Spears's 2023 memoir, The Woman in Me, into a film.
