Britney Spears is opening up about a spooky — but spiritual — experience that gave her a fresh new outlook on life!
On Wednesday, the pop star took to her Instagram with a lengthy text-only post about a time when journaling on vacation helped her believe in God again! Well, that and the crazy scary thing that happened right after! The mother of two began by explaining that she was once on a trip with a guy, but it wasn’t going so well.
She wrote:
“I had a trip where I was literally the saddest I have ever been in my life !!! I was there for two weeks and the first three days was with a guy friend, but I wasn’t in the mood to flirt with anybody !!! I guess because I didn’t give him a booty call he left and I was so damn thankful he did !!!”
LOLz!
We’ve all been there. By the way, she didn’t mention when this trip took place, but this post comes after she revealed she once slept outside on vacation to avoid an ex! Oof!

Once she was all alone, the Circus singer decided to start journaling before getting up to film some content, both of which ended up being really cathartic activities. The Crossroads alum remembered:
“So I started writing and keeping a journal !!! And when I did that I had no desire to work but I did !!! I put on my heels, turned on a ring light and it wasn’t good at first but then something happened !!! It got really good and extremely hot !!!”
She ain’t just talking about how she looked in her dress — she means the room was GLOWING!
“The whole room turned completely red three or four times and it wasn’t as if I was doing something evil or bad !!! It was my heart speaking through the walls !!!”
WHUT?? Wow! Creepy! She continued:
“But I know for a fact if I would have never done my journal I honestly don’t think there would have been the same effect !!! I feel like the universe wanted to hear my thoughts and because I had been so sad for so long I never spoke up !!! So I feel like the [sic] when the Bible talks about how through weakness that’s when God sometimes will give you the most strength, I believed in God again after that trip !!!”
OMG!
This was clearly a REALLY impactful moment for her! Incredible! Most people would be freaked out by something like that! Then again, this is Britney — who had already been through a haunted house experience…
Not only did it make her feel better about journaling and expressing her emotions, but it changed her perspective on how to live her life, Brit dished:
“I start shooting and I watched every sunset by myself !!! I feel like by me expressing my words in my journal and whatever my hands were writing, I believe it became pure magic !!! I’m sharing this because I’ve had some horrible days that were literally the worst !!! Every now and then we do need to hear a story of hope or a miracle !!! I think I needed to be reminded of that day as well !!!”
Aw, that’s so true! And it seems to be why she’s sharing this story now, despite past fears of being too vulnerable and embarrassing herself. Referencing her memoir, The Woman in Me, the 42-year-old shared:
“I have A LOT I didn’t share in my book because I was embarrassed by what people would say and if I could even deal with it !!! I’m learning the power of words and how they can change your life !!! Don’t ever let people confuse you or make you think you deserve abuse or mess with your head !!! It’s so cool that we are all extremely different beautiful people with our own stories !!! To be able to connect with even two or three people or touch someone’s heart and soul is the reason why I think we are her as people !!!”
Great advice! She’s spot on, too. Everyone just wants to feel seen! Who knew such an eerie supernatural incident could be so life-changing!? Hah! See Brit’s full reflection (below).
