Britney Spears has declared that she will “never perform” in the United States again, but hopes to play in Australia “very soon”.
In an Instagram post, the pop icon hinted at a visit to Australia after revealing that she is gifting a piano she once performed live with to her son and that she hopes to play with him on stage.
“Interestingly enough, I dance on IG to heal things in my body that people have no idea about,” the post reads.
“Yup and it’s embarrassing sometimes… but I walked through the fire to save my life… I will never perform in the U.S. again because of extremely sensitive reasons but I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son… in the UK and AUSTRALIA very soon.”

Spears last performed in Australia in 2009 – in what was her only tour of the country – as part of the The Circus Starring Britney Spears world tour.
The post comes after Spears posted a series of responses to her ex-husband Kevin Federline‘s recent memoir, You Thought You Knew. The tell-all book, released in October, recounts the couple’s tumultuous relationship, including their marriage in 2004 and their divorce in 2007. Along with an alarming claim that Spears would watch their children sleep with a knife in her hand , Federline wrote: “Something bad is going to happen if things don’t change.” He also claimed she drank while pregnant and did cocaine while breastfeeding.
Spears spoke out against his allegations on X, accusing Federline of “constant gaslighting” that has become “extremely hurtful and exhausting.” She wrote of Federline’s allegations in his memoir, writing, “Trust me, those white lies in that book, they are going straight to the bank and I am the only one who genuinely gets hurt here.”
