Britney Spears has spoken out after being photographed having a “manic meltdown” in a Los Angeles restaurant and comparing herself to Shrek in an odd social media post.
In response to the incident, the singer uploaded a cartoon image of a tiny girl pouring syrup on pancakes, along with the implication that she was ‘a bit inebriated’ at the time the video was taken.
The singer, 41, was dining with her 28-year-old husband Sam Asghari when admirers sought to snap selfies with her and said she was ‘saying nonsense’.
The hitmaker’s hubby was spotted out for dinner at JOEY restaurant in Woodland Hills on Friday, and according to TMZ, he stormed out after the confrontation with supporters occurred.
Britney then posted a video to social media after the episode of herself flipping off the camera to the tune of Divinyls’ I Touch Myself.
She attempted to explain away the bizarre behaviour in her most recent Instagram post that was captioned: ‘I watched ‘NATURAL BORN KILLERS’ this morning and damn I got ENLIGHTENED … and HOLY SMOKES S**T BALLS.


‘I’m sure I brought a billion SMILES to me LOOKING LIKE SHREK at a restaurant. Even my best friend couldn’t WAIT TO SEND IT TO ME, THEY DON’T THINK TWICE because we are all natural born killers.’
The megastar then went on to suggest she was still being kept under surveillance: ‘I know the news is all hyped about me being a little drunk at a restaurant … it’s like they’ll be WATCHING MY EVERY MOVE !!!
‘I’m so flattered they talk about me like a maniac THEN have the balls to talk about all the negative things that happened in my past !!!
‘Honestly it would be safer for me to compliment this world and f**k up because if I become a prophet and don’t create history, we might have something y’all… I’m just KIDDING, but it’s a good thought.

‘I know y’all are rooting for me and all and make sure you check out the shocking Shrek picture of me.
‘I was like damn that’s horrific yet there were two pics where I was normal … either way honestly I know nobody gives a flying f**k what I do !!! I’m just bored writing this paragraph like a damn idiot [sic].’
According to the outlet, the Circus singer was provoked by bystanders pulling out their phones to take pictures of her and attempted to hide her face behind a menu.
According to witnesses at the venue, the award-winning artist became increasingly furious and began ‘yelling’ and spoke in gibberish, prompting her hubby to leave.
Posting a cryptic message shortly after the incident, Sam appeared to rubbish the claims, writing: ‘Don’t believe what you read online people’ to his Instagram story.
