There is one more day until Britney Spears makes her debut back into music with Sir Elton John. With expectations and emotions running high, she deleted her Instagram account on Wednesday, just hours after the pop icon posted a sneak peek of the highly anticipated collaboration.
Spears later went to Twitter to share her feelings about the song’s release.“Okie dokie … my first song in 6 years!!!! It’s pretty damn cool that I’m singing with one of the most classic men of our time, Elton John!” she said. “I’m kinda overwhelmed… it’s a big deal to me !!!
I’m meditating more and learning my space is valuable and precious!!!” The song’s upcoming release will mark the artist’s return to music after her conservatorship ended in November 2021 as well as her latest track since her 2016 studio album “Glory”.
In the deleted post, she shared her love for the song while thanking John.It remains unclear as to why Spears deleted her account.
