Why has Brit posted the same 6 photos of herself naked?

167 replies

On instagram- 6 photos
All the same
Naked

I'm trying to consider if there is a deeper meaning. Like I am free to do what I like and no one can stop me.

Or is it an attention thing, but then she really can get all the attention she wants without having to do that.

Validation? Of what exactly

Yawn, yet another pearl clutching thread about Britney where mumsnetters rush to harp on about how 'clearly unwell' someone who they don't know must be despite their being little to no evidence of that beyond 'she posted pictures I don't like'.

The answer to why? Because she can, and she doesn't have to give you a reason.

@LeftFootForward

Britt Eckland not getting nude on camera would be weirder. Why break the habit of a life time just because your pushing 80?

LeftFootForward · 10/05/2022 11:43

@Tamzo85 Ha ha, that's very true 😅

I clicked on this thread thinking it was going be about Brit Eklund and was intrigued because it all seemed so weird😆

Me too! And now I feel about 150 years old.

PrettyMaybug · 10/05/2022 11:50

Oh dear. Sad I do like Britney, and I always have, but this is just all very disturbing and odd. Someone needs to stop her. She has 2 sons, and a baby on the way. Don't know when these were taken, but she states that it was 'before there was a baby inside.' Confused

Weird and disturbing behaviour. As a few posters have said, I don't think she is very well. Sad

Hardly ridiculous given her history. Anyone who has had any dealings with someone who is manic can very clearly see something isn't right at all.

Show quote history

She had a breakdown about 16 years ago fgs. That doesn't mean she is unwell now. You can't tell from looking at pictures that "something isn't right". Don't be ridiculous.

@Valeriekat are they? What actual mental health diagnosis has she been given that the public are aware of? If anything, the recent legal process has given heaps of evidence that her mental health issues have been massively exaggerated, and noone has ever come forward to say exactly what it is she's supposedly suffering from.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. Britney has been taking pictures without her clothes on since she was SIXTEEN. It's only now that she's older and not looking as stereotypically hot that people are falling over themselves to call her crazy. Britney took lots of happy looking photos wearing demure outfits at a time where she was desperately unhappy, and everyone said YAY she's cured! Look how pretty she is! Since her early 20s when she first dared to gain a couple of pounds, Britney's sanity has been hugely linked to how she looks and it makes me so angry. She has said a million times she doesn't care about the polish, the image, and just wants to be able to do whatever the hell she likes. WHY won't anyone for once actually just believe a woman's own words?

Totally agree. All the arm chair psychiatrists thinking they diagnose someone they don't know based on a photo are laughable.

oldwhyno · 10/05/2022 12:07

hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of women are taking their clothes off to some degree on the internet. some for fun, many for money. she's not really got much of a music career going on at the moment, so maybe she's just trying to boost her income. I imagine she's got used to a pretty expensive lifestyle.

Your posts are utterly bizarre. Also, you seem very invested in a thread that is seemingly boring and snoozeworthy and 'pearl-clutchy.' Go figure!

I am a big fan of Britney, and am worried for her, and like many others, I don't think she is very well, and I have the right to say that. So just bog off with trying to police the forum, and police what people say. Same message goes to @dianthus101 People are entitled to their opinions and views, so just bog off with your snide remarks telling people they can't have an opinion on Britney unless it suits YOU! Hmm

@Thatswhyimacat

Also, show me a photo of Britney BEFORE 2015/2016 where she was completely naked. I have never seen one. I certainly never saw any when she was in her bloody TEENS!

Tszoralto · 10/05/2022 12:34

No idea. I had to unfollow it's gone from weird to insanely bizarre. Just not sure of the point... From that to equally unusual partner I just couldn't do it anymore. Some of the comments the partner posts are often just inappropriate and plenty of people would jump on to tell him so. Like the pic of the small toddler she posted and he carried on about how hot the child's calves were and he hops his child has nice legs like that... 😬

That's just one example. He's a creep.

Funny how someone who is so opinionated about someone they have never met and feels entitled to diagnose them based on a nothing more than a photo is so outrageous when other people have opinions on them.

dianthus101 · 10/05/2022 12:38

outrageous outraged

justfiveminutes · 10/05/2022 12:41

I know her fans are keen to see her flourish now she is free of her father's control, but I really don't think that will be the outcome of her freedom.

She was under a conservatorship from 2008 until recently so she probably wouldn't have been allowed. Prior to that no instagram etc

Titsywoo · 10/05/2022 13:29

Maybe removing the conversatorship entirely wasn't such a good idea?

Figgygal · 10/05/2022 13:32

She is clearly not right all the repetitive dancing dead eyed videos are unsettling to view as her random outbursts which often get deleted. not sure what the solution is but she is certainly not presenting herself as someone who is well or enjoying their new found freedoms.

Working9to5ish · 10/05/2022 13:32

She's not doing anything different to what a million other Instagrammers do. She likes the photos? If I had a body like hers I'd post naked pics too!

AlternativePerspective · 10/05/2022 13:35

She was under a conservatorship for a reason.

I just hope to god the stories about her being pregnant aren’t true.

Fupoffyagrasshole · 10/05/2022 13:36

Probably the reason she has so many issues is because of people like you gossiping about her all the time - making up stuff about her based on very little facts or information! No wonder she’s had so many mental health problems to be honest.

please stop.

NutellaEllaElla · 10/05/2022 13:45

I mean I don't know what you want from her. She might be a little manic, I work with a lot of people like this and some people are often, or practically never "not 100%" but this is her, you can't hide her away, can't make her whatever your approved version of 100% 'well' is. There is no magic pill. Why can't we accept her as she is?

Squillerman · 10/05/2022 13:52

The photos aren’t very tasteful but it isn’t different from what many other celebs do regularly. Madonna’s posts have been… interesting recently too for someone in their sixties. She should be thinking about her teenagers more than anything else, I’m pretty sure their friends will have some choice words to say about this.

milkyaqua · 10/05/2022 13:53

But Madonna has not been under a lengthy conservatorship.

leave Britney alone!

Surely this is one of those just because you can doesn't mean you should situations?
