Celebrities who owe Britney Spears an apology - a thread

Britney Spears is one of the sweetest, most unproblematic celebrities who has never hurt anyone. Throughout her career, many people have made cruel and disgusting remarks about her, her kids, and her mental health and every one of them should apologize.

@ShawnMendes who made this terribly offensive joke at the expense of Britney's mental health.

@jtimberlake who went on the radio bragging that he took Britney's virginity.

@SarahKSilverman who called Britney's kids "mistakes" and made fun of her after the 2007 VMAs performance.

@katyperry who made some disrespectful comments clearly directed at Britney Spears.

Not once, but twice.

@DianeSawyer for being rude as hell throughout this whole interview.

@DrPhil who visited Britney when she was hospitalized and then made a public statement about it for attention.

@Eminem for using Britney's hospitalization for a song lyric.

@WendyWilliams for always using Britney's mental health and her kids as a hot topic on her show.

Wendy also asked "is their a problem?" when talking about allegations of child abuse towards Britney's kid.

@kathygriffin often used Britney's mental health issues as a punch line and said she was "jealous" of her breakdown.

There were a lot more options to choose from with @kathygriffin, but here she is admitting she used to make fun of Britney's mental health.

Questionable if this is even a celebrity, but @PerezHilton tried selling T-Shirts when Heath Ledger died that said "Why Couldn't it Be Britney?" and called her an unfit parent.

@blakeshelton made this disrespectful joke when opening the CMAs

The wife of the Governor of Maryland @kenehrl who said she wanted to "shoot Britney" at an anti-violence rally.

@xtina who called Britney "fake and superficial" and constantly was shady in the early parts of their careers.

@xtina also compared Britney to a blowup doll on stage with Justin Timberlake.

@jtimberlake again for calling Britney Spears a b*tch at a concert.

@AvrilLavigne for calling Britney a hoe and then laughing about it.

@chrisrock who joked about someone getting Britney pregnant when she was underage at the time.

Sexual predator Matt Lauer who did an entire interview insinuating that Britney was a bad mom.

@johnlegend for saying Britney and Demi weren't singers, and then only retracting the statement for Demi.

It has never been acceptable to make fun of a woman, her kids or her mental health journey. Many of these celebrities consider themselves "mental health advocates" until it comes to Britney. These celebrities should be held accountable and should apologize to Britney Spears.
