Britney Spears has been getting fans excited for potential new music this week, posting a video to Instagram showing off her vocal abilities. The 40-year-old pop icon wrote in a now-deleted caption that she was working on new music and had realised after her conservatorship ordeal that she ‘needed to be [her] own cheerleader.’

With that in mind, Britney said that she had been reading up on herself in order to remember her greatest achievements.

‘Multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning pop icon Britney Spears is one of the most successful and celebrated entertainers in pop history with nearly 100 million records sold worldwide,’ Britney read from her RCA Records artist biography. ‘In the U.S. alone, she has sold more than 70 million albums, singles and songs, according to Nielsen Music.

‘I’m not auditioning for anything,’ she continued according to Variety who reported the caption. ‘I’m reminding myself and the world of who I am!!!! Yes … I will be my own cheerleader.’

Her post has been celebrated by fans, many happy to see that she’s boosting her self-esteem with the memory of her illustrious career. After all, the popstar has 13 top 10 hits and has won a grand total of 376 awards for her contributions to music. In fact, it goes to show that if a legend like Britney Spears needs to be reminded of her greatest achievements, we could all take a leaf out of her book.

It’s not uncommon this time of year for people to start listing their successes from the year online. Our Twitter feeds become filled with threads of ‘personal news’ moments, our Instagram’s full of carousels showing 2021 highlights. But after the year we’ve had, most of us should be proud of ourselves just for getting through it. So we say, do a Britney and remind yourself of what you’ve achieved across your entire life – your 2021 roundup doesn’t have to just be about this year.

With a festive season of fun plans now scuppered and the threat of a January lockdown looming, it’s more important than ever to remind yourself of what you’re capable of. To, as Britney put it, be your own cheerleader. So get your CV out, your social media memories and personal highlights and make your own Britney inspired list of achievements. We all deserve to feel accomplished after making it to the end of 2021.
