Britney Spears has shared another story about her family on social media, this time by way of a Jennifer Lopez clip.
On Monday night, the "Toxic" singer reposted a clip from the 2005 film Monster-In-Law, starring Lopez and Jane Fonda. In the movie, the two argue before comedically beginning to slap one another across the face.
"I swear I've never slapped anyone my whole life !!! I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO SEE WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE ... JUST SAYING," wrote Spears in the caption to her 41.9 million current Instagram followers.
She then went on to describe the first time she was ever slapped, which took place after a night of partying with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, according to Spears.
"The first time I ever got slapped was the one night Paris and Lindsay dropped me off at my beach house with my babies !!! Kevin left me at that point, so I had a small beach house and my mother was watching Jayden and Preston," she said of her two sons that she shares with Kevin Federline.
"Yes I partied till like 4am and my mother was PISSED !!!! I walked in she looked at me and slapped me so hard that I will never forget it !!! Psss since then I've always wondered what it must feel like to slap someone," Spears wrote. "GUESS I WILL NEVER KNOW !!!! Stay classy folks !!! This was all 15 years ago ... I mean we've all grown up since then !!!"
This is not the first time the pop star has accused her mother, Lynne Spears, of abuse.
After the 13-year conservatorship—which gave Spears' family full control of her personal and financial decisions—was dissolved last November by a Los Angeles judge, Spears has outwardly discussed the conditions she said she was under, including abuse, forced medications and privacy issues.
In July of this year, Spears accused her mother of abuse on Instagram, saying her mother knew about and helped plan the conservatorship two weeks before it was put on Spears.
"I had done nothing wrong and you kept telling me on my couch we need to go to Malibu cause I think people are coming to get me and I said 'WHY ???' !!! I didn't believe you guys ... we had a f**king sleepover the night before!!!" Spears wrote. "It was all planned and you acted like you had no idea what was going on !!! Two weeks later you released a book and showed my heartbreak when Kevin took my kids."
Spears also claimed that her mother would hide coffee from her in the mornings and removed her picture from her home, only displaying ones of her other daughter, Jamie Lynn Spears, and granddaughter Maddie. She also said she was forced to go to three AA meetings a week despite hating alcohol, while her mother and her brother's ex-wife Graciella Sanchez "went out every night and drank wine and got your stupid pictures taken when I couldn't go anywhere or have my boyfriend anymore."
She ended her post saying that her mother "abused her."
"Yes I will say it and it blows my mind that you still play the prayer loving mom," she said.
Newsweek reached out to a representative for Spears for comment.
