Jennifer Lopez has sent a message of support to Britney Spears as the pop star continues to clash with her ex and the father of her two children, Kevin Federline.
“Stay [strong],” Lopez, 53, wrote on her Instagram Stories as she reshared a post from the “Stronger” singer, featuring a snap of the two artists attending the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.
Spears quotes J. Lo in the original Friday night post as she reflects on “independence” and “equality.”
“In a world where you have the right to use your feet 🦶… heart ❤️ … mouth 👄 … eyes 👀 … and body… to express yourself however you want 😁 !!! Declaration of INDEPENDENCE… for equality and to be equal 🤝!!! Not even touching me, covering me and holding me against my will for 4 months!!! ” Spears, 40, captioned a clip of herself swaying as she looked into the camera, scoring her 2002 hit “Boys.”

“As Jennifer Lopez once said,” she continued, “”Look down from this camera and tell all the girls in the world to make noise and never shine a light on injustice again” ☺️ !!! I’m here to share that freedom is a state of mind!!! God bless you all ❤️❤️❤️ Psss I recorded it today!!!”
Lopez also dropped three heart emojis in Spears’ comment section.

Spears recently opened up about how difficult it has been to be a parent with Federline after she shared in a preview for an ITV interview that her children, Sean Preston and Jayden James, decided to “not see” their mother during ” several months,” calling. the claims “hurt” on Instagram and then added that her children would act “hateful” towards her during visits.
K-Fed responded by releasing videos of private moments with her children when they were 12 and 11, a move Spears’ lawyer called a “violation” of her family’s privacy.

“Whether he realizes it or not, Mr. Federline has not only violated the privacy and dignity of the mother of his children, he has undermined his own children, whose privacy he should be protecting,” said the attorney Mathew Rosengart at Page Six.
The ex-couple are still at odds, with a Federline source telling Page Six that “posting the videos wasn’t about making her look mean or bad, but more about reminding people that she legitimately has a mental illness i [Federline and the sons] worry that it is not controlled.”
