The singer shared a photo on Instagram of what remained of her home gym in 2020 after she left two candles burning.

Britney Spears did a little "reflecting" on Instagram yesterday, sharing a photo of what was left after a fire destroyed her home gym in 2020.

The photo shows the gym equipment—kettlebells, treadmills, a BOSU ball and either a stationary bike or elliptical—covered in soot and ash. Everything else in the gym was charred and nearly unrecognizable.


The singer captioned her photo:

"Reflecting back remembering when I burnt the gym down in 2020 😉🤔 !!!"

You can see the aftermath below.

CNN reported on the incident in April 2020 after Spears explained in a now-deleted post what transpired.

“Hi guys, I’m in my gym right now. I haven’t been in here for like six months because I burnt my gym down, unfortunately."
“I had two candles, and yeah, one thing led to another, and I burned it down."

She continued:

“I walked past the door to the gym and flames BOOM !!!!!! By the Grace of God the alarm went off after that and yippy hoorah nobody got hurt."
“Unfortunately now I have only two pieces of equipment left lol and a one-sided mirror gym."

The "Circus" singer finished:

“But it could be much worse so I’m grateful.”

Fans learning of the incident for the first time agreed, and shared their relief that Spears was not injured.

Gavin Newsom Just Epically Trolled JD Vance Over Tariffs With An AI Video About Couches

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked Vice President JD Vance—and his love of couches—with an AI-generated video to troll him over the rising costs of goods due to President Donald Trump's retaliatory tariffs.

Earlier this week, Trump announced new tariffs: 10% on softwood timber and lumber, and 25% on “certain upholstered wooden products,” set to take effect October 14. The move follows Trump’s announcement last week of additional tariffs on kitchen cabinets, vanities, and other upholstered products, which will take effect October 1.
