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.

Sarah Jessica Parker Claps Back At Conservative Critics Who Want Her To 'Shut Up' About Politics And 'Act'

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

Ann Coulter Faces Fierce Backlash After Saying 'We Didn't Kill Enough Indians' In Deleted Post

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
