We can now count Britney Spears as a Princess Diana fan. Randomly, the popstar paid tribute to the late princess on Instagram yesterday - writing a sweet message about why she respected the Princess of Wales so much.
'She never wanted to be the queen … she wanted to be the heart of the people !!!!!!!! She was more than class … she was sheer genius down to the way she spoke to the way she mothered her children,' Britney wrote. 'The essence of being completely oblivious to her own power !!!! 750 MILLION people watched her get married on TV !!!! She will always be remembered as one of the most remarkable women to date !!!!'
Of course, also as one of the most famous women in the world, who has been hounded by the media throughout her life, Britney must be able to relate to Diana and the struggles she went through while she was alive. Diana is currently in the headlines again, as her infamous Panorama interview has been part of a huge investigation. The inquiry by former Supreme Court judge Lord Dyson judged Bashir to be 'unreliable', 'devious' and 'dishonest'. It seems likely that the shared connection - being interrogated in the media through questionable means - led Britney to connect emotionally with the late Princess.
In March, Britney spoke out about the New York Times documentary Framing Britney Spears, which covered the way she had been treated by the media, as well as the conservatorship she has been in since 2008. 'I didn't watch the documentary but from what I did see of it I was embarrassed by the light they put me in,' she wrote on Instagram. 'I cried for two weeks and well .... I still cry sometimes !!!! I do what I can in my own spirituality with myself to try and keep my own joy ... love ... and happiness !!!! Every day dancing brings me joy !!! I'm not here to be perfect ... perfect is boring ... I'm here to pass on kindness !!!!'
