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.
