Rumors have been swirling this week that Britney Spears' 10th studio album is in the works...

But we have bad news for you, and it's straight from the singer herself.

On Wednesday, Spears took to Instagram to address the buzz.

In a lengthy and now-deleted post, the "Oops... I Did it Again" singer swore the "news" is absolutely false, noting that she will "never return to the music industry."

Per the HuffPost, she wrote:

“Just so we’re clear most of the news is trash !!!”
“They keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album … I will never return to the music industry !!!”

Spears continued:

"When I write, I write for fun or I write for other people !!!"
"For those of you who have read my book, there's loads that you don't know about me ... I've written over 20 songs for other people the past two years !!!"
"I'm a ghostwriter and I honestly enjoy it that way !!!"

She also addressed speculation that her new memoir The Woman in Me was released without her approval, which she shared was also a lie.

"People are also saying MY BOOK WAS RELEASED WITHOUT MY APPROVAL ILLEGALLY and that's far from the truth ... have you read the news these days ???"

Spears finished her post:

"I'm so LOVED and blessed !!!"

While people on social media were disappointed to learn they wouldn't be getting new tunes from the singer, they completely understood and respected her decision.













In August 2022, the singer released "Hold Me Closer" with Elton John, her first release since her 13-year conservatorship ended.

While fans undoubtedly wanted more music from Spears, she wrote in her memoir that music wasn't her "focus" anymore.

"Pushing forward in my music career is not my focus at the moment."
"It's time for me not to be someone who other people want; it's time to actually find myself."

Elon Musk Dragged After Showing Off His Juvenile Fake Police Badge Declaring Himself 'The Dogefather'

Billionaire Elon Musk was widely ridiculed after sharing a photo of his fake law enforcement badge—complete with the badge number "69420"—that declares him "The Dogefather," flexing his authority as the leader of the advisory Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is at the center of the ongoing slash-and-burn approach to gutting federal spending.

Musk appeared positively thrilled when he shared the photo—perhaps the most cringey thing he's done, at least thus far, since attaining unprecedented political power.

'Wuthering Heights' Film Casting Director Irks Fans After Justifying Casting Decisions By Claiming 'It's Just A Book'

It was recently announced that Wuthering Heights, the 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, is being adapted for the screen at Warner Bros. Pictures. The leading director is Emerald Fennell, and the casting director is Kharmel Cochrane, who was involved in the award-winning Nosferatu and Saltburn.

For those who got through high school and college without having to read the novel, it's a dark, psychological thriller with Gothic horror undertones—and also a love story. That's the power of Emily Brontë, who published just one novel in her lifetime.
