Britney Spears made headlines with a series of unusual claims as she celebrated her 43rd birthday in Mexico. The pop icon traveled south of the border on December 2 and suggested she might settle there permanently, citing her dissatisfaction with the “cruel” paparazzi in Los Angeles.
In an Instagram video, Spears humorously claimed she was turning five and joked about starting kindergarten, though she mistakenly referred to it as her 42nd birthday. These remarks came shortly after she was officially declared legally single, following the finalization of her divorce from Sam Asghari seven months ago.
Spears and Asghari, who met on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video in 2016, were married for 14 months. Their union ended with Asghari reportedly leaving with little due to a prenup, though Spears covered his rent temporarily after their split. This was Spears’ third marriage, following unions with Kevin Federline and childhood friend Jason Alexander, the latter annulled after just 55 hours.
The videos and her recent legal developments have reignited public interest in the singer’s personal life.
