After yelling “Free Britney” at one of her 2019 concerts, Miley Cyrus has spoken out about supporting Britney Spears amid the #FreeBritney movement.
“From a public’s point of view, it would be really hard to kind of relate, and because I don’t personally know Britney that well, I feel like I’m just another public speculator,” the former Disney Channel star said during a recent interview with iHeartRadio. “And I always kind of check myself too. Is this my place? Am I just sitting from the outside, thinking that I know the details I don’t know, just kind of like I complain how the public does to me?”
The 27-year-old continued, “It’s a treat others the way you wanted to be treated kind of thing. I definitely don’t know her personally enough to know any of the details. I scream a lot of things at my show. I also think Britney, like anyone else, should have the freedom to live the life that’s most authentic to her.”
For those who missed it, fans of the pop star have continuously taken to social media and expressed concern about the singer’s conservatorship. Britney was first placed under a conservatorship in 2008, and Us Weekly confirmed back in May that it will be extended until at least the end of August 2020. The songstress’ father, Jamie Spears, served as her conservator until September 2019, when Britney’s care manager, Jodi Montgomery took over.
Miley’s comments came a few weeks after Jamie also addressed the #FreeBritney movement surrounding his daughter, and called it “a joke.”
“All these conspiracy theorists don’t know anything. The world don’t have a clue,” the 68-year-old told the New York Post’s Page Six. “It’s up to the court of California to decide what’s best for my daughter. It’s no one else’s business.”
He added, “It’s horrible. We don’t want those kinds of fans. I love my daughter. I love all my kids. But this is our business. It’s private.”
